The room was quiet except for the soft rustle of the healer's robes as she finished her examination. Orion sat on the edge of the bed, his face pale and troubled. Sirius, Lucius, and Narcissa stood nearby, their expressions reflecting a mix of concern and curiosity.
Orion looked at the healer, his voice trembling. "Is there a way to determine if the pregnancy could be Abraxas's? Could it be his child?"
The healer's gaze softened with understanding. "We can certainly conduct further tests to determine paternity, but it will take some time to get accurate results. Early stages of pregnancy can make it difficult to pinpoint the exact timing."
Sirius's eyes widened in shock, and he glanced at Lucius and Narcissa, who looked equally stunned. The room's atmosphere grew tense as the implications of Orion's question sank in.
Lucius was the first to speak, his voice a mix of disbelief and concern. "Are you suggesting that the child might be Abraxas's? That's a serious matter."
Orion nodded, his face etched with worry. "It's just that Abraxas and I were together before everything happened, and if this is his child…"
Narcissa, her face pale, stepped forward. "Orion, do you really think that's possible? The timing and circumstances make it so complex."
Orion looked down, his hands clasped tightly together. "I don't know. I'm just trying to understand everything. If it is Abraxas's child, it complicates things even more."
The healer nodded In agreement. "We'll need to wait for the results of the paternity test to know for sure. In the meantime, it's important to focus on your health and well-being."
Sirius moved closer to Orion, placing a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "Whatever the outcome, we'll handle it. You're not alone in this."
Lucius, still visibly shocked, took a deep breath. "We need to consider all possibilities and ensure that whatever decisions are made, they are in the best interest of everyone involved."
Narcissa, though shaken, offered a supportive smile. "We'll face this together, Orion. No matter what the results are, we'll find a way through."
As the group processed the new layer of complexity introduced by Orion's question, the healer made a note to arrange for the necessary tests. The revelation had added a new dimension to the already complicated situation, but the support from Sirius, Lucius, and Narcissa provided a foundation of strength as they prepared to face whatever came next.
