months passed, i was huge. whale sized even though im just carrying one. yes, i am criticizing myself and i am my own bully.

i was watching myself half nude in front of the mirror and well, im not gonna lie to myself and tell that i am... o~kay.

"tell me honestly, arius. am i hideous?" i asked the man lounging on our bed unpreturbed by everything else around him.

"and why do you ask that ridiculous question? hm?" he said with his hands beneath his head.

"you seemed so relaxed there."

"that i am for sure. im seeing the love of my life heavy with my child. who in this twisted world is not happy with that?"

i must admit his words brought a smile to my face.

"i cant blame you if you berrate your appearance like that, love. youre a celebrity and was brought up to care for your appearance above all others by that hideous woman. but note to self, youre beautiful. even in rags. even pregnant. even old and wrinkled. youre mine and mine alone. well, with the exception of our little ones." he said while slowly approaching me.

"youre just saying that to make me calm down

"youre just saying that to make me calm down." i turned again to watch myself in the mirror.

"i am actually but its still the truth." he kissed my cheek and even hugged my half naked self. "hey, now that i am looking at you, would you produce milk when our baby comes?"

"i dont know. i dont feel anything unusual around here, so maybe not? well see." i pointed out my chest area.

i hastily covered myself with the soft silk robe that i tossed over the bed earlier. i did not stand that long but hell, my backs already killing me and my feet are already tingling. i might need a massage from arius later.

he half carried me back to the bed when he saw me wobble like a penguin grasping anything sturdy to lower myself back on the bed.

"sure looks heavy, eh, love?"

"it sure is. water and baby, you know."

"damn, right, i know."

moments later, we heard the doorbell from below. i think its sir ethan. its still sir ethan. i cant make myself to call him mama like arius and ayberk and even rin does even though i was told too many times that i could call him that.

"thats probably your mom."

"no. its ayberk. wait a minute, ill be back."

the moment i opened our main door, ayberk and his beta, whose name i always forgot, was sweating bullets.

"whats wrong?"

"foreign cartel and witches combo, bro." ayberk told me getting pale.

"dads knew?" should i even ask, for sure they knew.
