Author's Note: Sorry, small chapter, but trying out what I think is dramatic tension or something.

6 Months Later
"Sydney, rise and shine." Simon walked into his and Syd's large bedroom. The bright Milan sun shone through the large windows. Sydney's large belly protruded from the sheets as she woke and turned. She smiled at Simon, and he laid down beside her, and smiled back. "How's mommy?"
"Good. How's daddy?" The two had taken to calling each other pet names during the past months.
Ever since Sydney had gone back to Simon, she had lost contact with the CIA and her friends. In her mind, that was better.
"Not bad."
"So, what's on the agenda for today?"
"Well, I have some business to attend to here at the house. To which, our little...bundle of joy, should not be objected to, so you will have to endure a full day of shopping. How tragic."
"Uh, I know. How will I survive?" The two laughed and shared a very passionate kiss.

After doing just as Simon ordered, Syd arrived back at their house. As per his rules, Sydney had gone out in disguise. Simon reminded her again and again that besides the Covenant, there were several other people who wanted to hurt her and the baby. As she walked back through the house, she removed her wig and sunglasses. Planning to surprise her "boyfriend", Sydney crept around the corner to the doors of his study, but stopped as she heard him talking to a male voice that sounded strangely familiar.
"I trust all went as planned." Simon stood behind his huge oak desk. Syd couldn't see the other man, only his blonde shaven head.
"The covenant still suspects nothing."
"Good. They cannot know how it is going, they must wait." Simon walked around to the bar on wall beside his desk. The blonde man turned and gasped as she saw who it was. Sydney stepped into the room, shaking, only looking at the man in front of her.
