A/N: The word is getting out. Sean and Nick now know. Who will find out next. Meanwhile, Juliette learns more about wesen and woging.

This chapter will have a couple of different POV's before we return to Lorelei's.

*Sean's POV*

As Sean left Lorelei's that morning, he felt as if he were on cloud nine. He couldn't remember a time when he had been happier. Lorelei, his beautiful and smart soulmate was carrying his child. He was going to be a father. Sean had never thought it would happen. Considering his relationship with his own father, Sean had been sceptical about fathering his own children. What kind of father would he be when he didn't have the best example growing up. Furthermore, Sean had never truly had a steady relationship with a woman that could have led to children. He had been waiting, waiting for his soulmate. And now, he had her and they were having a baby.

Despite his happiness, there were a few things that worried him. First, was his family. What would they do when they found out a Grimm was carrying a child with Royal blood? They were already interested in Lorelei; would this lead them to make a move. And secondly, was Lorelei's family. Nick and their friends. He had no doubt there would be some threats to his life. He had seen how loved Lorelei was and how overprotective they could be. Rosalee already knew and soon the rest would know as well. Sean hoped they would leave them be, and not try to dissuade Lorelei from being with him.

Not long after he reached work, he received a call from Lorelei, giving him a heads up that she had told Nick, and the detective wasn't too happy about it. Sean noticed when Nick and Hank came in later. Evidently, Nick had told Hank as both men were giving him dirty looks when they thought no one was watching. Thankfully, they were busy with a case and seemed to have realised that the precinct wasn't the best place to confront him. However, Sean knew it would be coming. He wasn't going to let it bring him down though. He had his soulmate, they were expecting a child, and that's all that mattered.

*Nick's POV*

Nick Burkhardt was pissed. Of all the things he expected his little sister to tell him, this was not it. Renard was her soulmate! And she was pregnant! She was nineteen and he was somewhere in his early forties. Sure, Lorelei was more mature than most her age, but what could she possibly have in common with a police captain almost twice her age. Nick knew Renard was shady, but he didn't realise he was this shady. Had he been planning to use his status as Lorelei's soulmate to get to the key? Was he using her? God, he wanted to hit something, preferably Renard. But he couldn't. No matter how justified it was.

Hank noticed Nick's mood and questioned him about it on their way back to the precinct. "I thought that whole musai influence thing was broken. What's got you in a mood?" He asked.

Nick sighed. "Yeah, this is not the musai's influence. This is something else, something Lorelei told me this morning."

"What'd she tell you that has you so pissed?"

Nick let out another sigh. "She's pregnant with her soulmates baby."

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Hank starting at him in surprise. "What? Lorelei found her soulmate. And she's pregnant? Who's the soulmate?"

Nick gritted his teeth and gripped the steering wheel hard. "It's fucking Renard. Bastard defiled my sister."

"What!" Hank shouted. "Captain Renard, our captain, that Renard?"

"That's the one."

"Son of a bitch." Hank said. "Well, now I'm pissed too. What the hell? You gonna confront him?"

Nick nodded. "Eventually, but I can't exactly do it at the precinct."

"That is true. But let me know when you do, I'll hold his arms while you hit him."

*Lorelei's POV*

As her class for the day had been cancelled, Lorelei decided to visit Rosalee at the spice shop. Just to kind of decompress before her appointment later this afternoon. Lorelei knew she would have to tell Monroe soon as well. He wasn't at the spice shop when Lorelei arrived, but maybe he would stop by later and she could tell him then. Now that Nick knew, word would probably spread. No doubt, Hank would notice her brother's mood and find out from him. At least she didn't have to keep it a secret anymore.

"Hey sweetie." Rosalee greeted her as she walked into the shop. "How'd it go last night?"

Lorelei nodded. "Good. Sean was pretty happy. Nick, not so much."

Rosalee looked surprised. "You told Nick already?"

"Yeah, he asked to meet for breakfast this morning. He was in a good mood, so I thought, lets ruin that."

Rosalee chuckled a little. "So, he didn't take it too well?"

Lorelei shook her head. "No, not really. Although, better than expected. Hopefully he doesn't do something stupid, like attack Sean at work."

"Hmm, hopefully. Tea?"

"Yes please."

At little while later, as Rosalee finished up with a customer, Monroe, Bud, and Juliette came into the shop. "Is everything alright?" Rosalee asked.

"Uh, not exactly." Bud said, as Monroe turned the sign to closed in the door.

"And by that you mean?" Lorelei asked him, coming to stand beside Rosalee.

Monroe answered. "Remember the night Nick brought Juliette over to my house to…"

"The night that Monroe was supposed to show me something that was going to make me believe in everything Nick had told me." Juliette finished.

Rosalee and Lorelei glanced at Monroe. "You know where this is going Rosalee." Bud said.

"I have a feeling."

"Good, 'cause maybe you can talk them out of it."

Monroe stepped forward. "Rosalee, Lorelei, don't you think it's too late for that?"

"I don't."

"I mean, after all she's been through and seen. I just – I don't want to lie to her."

Rosalee glanced at Lorelei. "I don't either." Lorelei confessed.

Rosalee sighed, closing her eyes for a second. "I think you're right. I don't either."

Juliette smiled at the other woman, while Bud started to panic. "Ok, ok. Oh my god. This is really going to happen." He said, looking between them. "Uh, she should be sitting. Maybe with a blanket."

"I just want you to show me what you were supposed to show me." Juliette told them. Rosalee, Monroe and Bud looked each other, obviously trying to decide who would go first. "Now. Please."

Monroe looked at her. "Ok." He said. Bud started panicking again, moving to a nearby shelf and almost hiding behind it. Monroe took a deep breath, preparing himself to woge. "Ok, here goes."

"Monroe, wait." Monroe looked at Lorelei questioningly. "I think Bud or Rosalee should go first. You might be a bit much to begin with.

"I agree." Rosalee said, coming from around the counter to stand in front of Juliette. "But not without a little prep."

"Prep?" Juliette asked, looking confused.

Rosalee let out a breath and smiled at Juliette. "So…have you ever heard of a fuschbau?


Of course, Juliette hadn't ever heard of a fuschbau. Rosalee didn't provide a much information. She did direct them into the side room, however.

"Now, I just want you to know that whatever you see, I'm still me." Rosalee told Juliette.

"It's still her." Bud added nervously.

"You know about the wesen, and Monroe's told you the woging and that's what I'm going to do now."

"Remember that it's still Rosalee."

"Bud." Rosalee said.

"Juliette, bottom line, this is what Nick felt was his last…hope to convince you." Monroe said.

"It really is something that needs to be seen to be believed." Lorelei told her.

Juliette was starting to look nervous. "Just do it." She directed to Rosalee.

Rosalee glanced toward where Monroe and Lorelei were standing. "Alright, ok." She let out another breath. "This is a fuschbau." She said, before woging.

Juliette leant back a bit, not running, but looking surprised, an eyebrow raised. Rosalee woged back, and they all waited to see Juliette's reaction. It wasn't the best.

"Oh my god." She said, before rushing out the door.

"Juliette." Rosalee called after her, while Bud started panicking again.

"I knew this was going to happen. I knew it."

"Should I go after her?" Monroe asked, moving towards the door.

"Maybe I should." Lorelei told him.

"Maybe we should just call Nick." Rosalee suggested.

"We gotta do something, we can't just let her walk out, we gotta do something." Bud added.

Thankfully, Juliette walked in a couple of seconds later. Clearly, trying to hold herself together. "Ok. I'm not sure what I just saw, but that's what Nick wanted me to see. You're a fuschbau…and…and that means you're a wesen."

Rosalee nodded. "That's right."

"And what you did right there is called a woge."

"Yes."

"Uh, so we're done." Bud said, looking hopeful.

Juliette looked at him, before turning to Monroe. "And what, you're a fuschbau too?"

The others looked at him as well. "Uh, not exactly." Monroe said slowly.

"You're something else?"

"Uh, you could say that." Bud said.

"What are you?" Juliette asked him.

Monroe considered it for a moment. "I'm a blutbad."

"That's German."

"Yeah."

"What does it mean?"

"It means, what I am."

"I want to see. Will you show me?"

Monroe looked towards Rosalee and Lorelei, clearly not wanting to go next. "I…I'm thinking. Bud. Bud should probably go first." He said.

Bud looked scared. "What—what—what—what—me?" he said, as everyone looked at him. "Uh, hey, I—I didn't know I was gonna have to woge. I'm not prepared to woge. You know, I can't just woge at the drop of a hat. I mean there has to be a certain state of a man has to be in…" And then he woged. Bud glanced at Juliette, seeing the surprise on her face. He quickly touched his face. "Oh my god, oh my god did I full woge? This is embarrassing." He whimpered.

Lorelei couldn't stop the smile that crossed her face at Bud's antics, neither could Monroe and Rosalee.

"This has never happened before." Bud cried. He woged back and looked to Juliette. "Are you ok?"

"Mmhm." Juliette said, clearly trying not to smile as well. "What are you?" She asked gently.

"Me?" He asked. "I'm a…I'm a…uh, brain freeze."

"He's an eisbiber." Lorelei filled in.

"That's me." He cleared his throat. "It wasn't that bad, right?"

Juliette started at him for a moment, before turning to Monroe. "Why did you want them to go first?"

Monroe sighed. "Because I take a little getting used to." He told her. "But please. Just, trust me."

"I do."

"Ok." Monroe said softly. He stepped back at bit, clearly still a little anxious. He took another breath before woging. "Juliette, this is me." He said, as Juliette gasped, backing up a little, but stopped herself from running off. Monroe woged back and smiled at her. "See. It's just me."

"Ok, so you're an eisbiber, a fuschbau, and a –."

"Blutbad." Monroe finished for her.

Juliette nodded. "And what about Nick? Is he wesen?

Everyone quickly assured her, that no, Nick was not wesen. "He's like you." Rosalee told her.

"Except, of course, he's a Grimm." Monroe added.

"And that means he know what you are." Juliette said, and the wesen present answered affirmatively.

"Like we know that he and Lorelei are Grimms." Bud said. "And you're…not."

Juliette rubbed her temples, taking a moment. They all watched her expectantly. "Anybody got a drink?"


"Ok, so you and Nick are Grimms. And you can see wesen, even when others can't." Juliette asked, nursing her drink.

Lorelei nodded. "That's correct."

"And Grimms hunt wesen, except you and Nick don't. Not really?"

Lorelei nodded again. "Yeah. Traditionally, Grimms hunt wesen indiscriminately. Good, bad, men, women and children. It doesn't matter to them. But me and Nick, we don't do that."

Juliette nodded. They were all still in the spice shop, answering Juliette's questions the best they could. Everyone but Lorelei had a drink. And that didn't go unnoticed.

"Turning down free booze again Lorelei?" Monroe asked. "You pregnant or something?"

Lorelei glanced at Rosalee and Juliette gasped. "Oh my god. I saw that look. You are, aren't you?"

"I was only joking." Monroe said, looking at Lorelei. "You're not. Right?"

Lorelei bit her lip and glanced around at her friends, who with the exception of Rosalee, were looking at Lorelei expectantly. She sighed. "Juliette's right. I am pregnant."

"Who's the father?"

"I didn't even know you were seeing someone?"

"Hold up, give her some space." Rosalee told them.

"You knew?" Monroe asked Rosalee.

"I had my suspicions for a while. Lorelei only confirmed it yesterday."

Lorelei felt a hand come to rest on hers. She looked at Juliette. "Who's the lucky guy?" She asked, a small smile on her face.

Lorelei sighed. "Um, my soulmate." That started another flurry of questions. "I found my soulmate last year. We have been keeping things to ourselves. But I guess I should probably tell you who it is, since you know him. And please, don't give him a hard time. He's already going to get it from Nick."

"Well, who is it?" Monroe asked.

Lorelei glanced at Rosalee again, who gave her a nod. "It's Nick and Hank's captain. Sean Renard."

As expected, there was a bit of an uproar, especially from Monroe. He threatened to kill him, with Bud offering to help. Juliette was surprised, asking if Sean was the older guy Lorelei had told her about last year. However, once the initial shock wore off, Lorelei did get some congratulations and excitement about the baby. Lorelei did have to go however, in order to make it to her appointment in time. Rosalee offered to come with her, but Lorelei declined.


Lorelei ran into Sean as they both entered the hospital. "Hi, how was your morning?" He asked, giving her a quick kiss.

"Interesting, for sure." She replied. "Did Nick give you a hard time?"

Sean sighed. "No, but he and Griffin have been giving me dirty looks all day. Thankfully they've been out working on a case. But I am sure it's coming."

Lorelei nodded as they headed towards the OBGYN's offices. "I'm sorry. You're probably going to get more flak from the others as well. Rosalee, Monroe, Juliette, and our friend Bud know as well. I just got done with the inquisition."

Sean smiled down at her, brushing hair from her face. "You have nothing to apologise for. You are a very beloved person. They're just looking out for you.

Lorelei nodded. "That is true." She said with a sigh, directing Sean towards the elevator. As they head to it, Sean surprised Lorelei by sliding his hand into hers, giving it a gentle squeeze. She glanced up him with a questioning look.

"No need to hide anymore." He told her with a smile before bringing her hand up to press a gentle kiss to her knuckles.

They made it to the doctor's office with time to spare. Before seeing Dr Brody, the nurse came in to check Lorelei's stats. "Your blood pressure is a little higher than it should be. I'll let Dr Brody know."

"Hi Lorelei, how are you? And who's this?" Dr Brody asked as she entered the room.

"I'm fine thank you Dr. And, um, this is Sean. My…soulmate. And the baby's father."

Sean shook Dr Brody's hand. "Glad you could make it Sean." Dr Brody said. "Now, Lorelei, apparently your blood pressure is a little high."

"Is it enough to cause concern?" Sean asked, looking worried.

"Not necessarily. Lorelei, any stressors at the moment."

Lorelei laughed. "Yeah, a few. I finally told my family I was pregnant. For the most part they are ok with it, but…you know." She finished with a shrug.

Dr Brody nodded in understanding. "I do. Look, we'll monitor it for the time being. We'll check in next month, but just take note of any swelling or sudden weight gain." Dr Brody laughed. "Unfortunately, it's hard to avoid family sometimes. Especially the well-meaning ones."

The rest of the appointment was routine. An ultrasound was done, just to check and make sure everything was progressing as it should. Sean had stood by her side, holding her hand as he looked at the screen in awe. Although Lorelei had looked, she found herself more interested in watching Sean. He tried to cover it, but she could see his eyes shining with tears.

Dr Brody sent them off with a couple of copies of the ultrasound photo. As they headed out, Sean kept pulling it out of his pocket to look at his copy. It made Lorelei's heart sing. Sean walked Lorelei to her car and gave her an extremely passionate kiss before he had to leave to return to work. Feeling breathless, Lorelei got in her car and headed off.

A/N: And now the rest of the group know. Sorry Sean didn't get punched in the face. Nick may act without thinking sometimes, but even he isn't stupid enough to punch his captain in the precinct. And considering the events that are to come, the punch may come later. Or if I can't fit it in, I will write a one-shot with Nick and the others confronting Sean.
