Surprise epilogue!
"Pregnant?" Shadow gasps and leans back in his seat. Sky is sitting across from him next to her twin brother, clutching her knees and staring at her lap.
"Yeah," Sky mutters, wrapping her arms around herself. "Pregnant. It's from when Frost, um…"
"I-I know." Shadow puts his head in his hands, and tugs back at his ears. "H-How far along are you?"
"Four months," Sky replies quietly. "V-Vincent told me a few days ago."
"No wonder you're gaining weight and you can't make runs to the palace without stopping about four times on the way there," Silver jokes lightly.
Shadow sighs. "Who else knows?"
"Just us," Sky tells him. "I haven't told anyone else yet."
"Well, let's keep it that way. Nobody has to know that it isn't mine," Shadow growls. "And, I will treat it as though it was."
"'She,'" Sky whispers.
"What?"
"It's a girl." A tear rolls down her cheek. "Vincent told me that the baby's a girl."
Shadow blinks at her, shocked. A girl? He goes over to join the twins on the couch, wrapping his arms around his mate and pressing his lips to her cheek. His hands find her stomach, his hands brushing underneath her shirt, amazed that she's carrying a new life.
"It'll be okay, you two," Silver murmurs sympathetically. "It'll be okay."
"I love you," Shadow says, ignoring Silver's words. "I love you, and I'll love this child." He kisses the back of her ear.
"Looks like we'll be starting a family sooner than we thought," Sky mutters with a sigh. "But that's okay, I guess, as long as you're with me."
Happy sequel! I've decided to continue the saga. I should have the first chapter up as soon as possible. I love you all! Leave a review on your way out!
Muffin out!
