Hannah
The doctor put away his stethoscope with a sigh, his brow furrowed as he turned to face us. The sound of the
metal instrument clinking against his desk seemed unnaturally loud in the quiet room, echoing off of the sterile
white walls.
“You may need to undergo amniocentesis,” he said, his voice grave.
| felt Noah stiffen beside me, his hand tightening around mine. We exchanged worried looks, the fear in his green
eyes mirroring my own. The leather of the examination table crinkled beneathas | shifted uncomfortably.
“Why?” | asked, my voice hardly more than a whisper. “What's wrong?”
“Your latest blood panel has cback with sconcerning red flags,” the doctor explained as he flipped
through the clipboard containing my medical information. “There’s a possibility that your baby may have
complications.”

Complications.
The word felt dirty, empty. Like a puddle of muck that went deeper than it appeared.
My free hand instinctively went to my swollen belly.
“What kind of complications?” Noah asked tightly.
The doctor took a deep breath before explaining the process of amniocentesis in detail. He described how they
would use a long needle to extract amniotic fluid to test for genetic diseases.
The thought madequeasy, my stomach churning uncomfortably. | couldn't help but squirm a bit on the table
just thinking about it.
“It will be uncomfortable, I'm afraid,” the doctor warned, his eyes softening as he saw my pained expression,
“but it's necessary to ensure your pregnancy goes smoothly. This is the heir of Nightcrest,
after all.”
To my surprise, Noah's eyes flashed with irritation. “It’s not just the heir of Nightcrest,” he said firmly, a muscle
ticking in his jaw. “It’s the health of my wife and child.”
| felt a warmth spread through my chest at his words, my heart softening toward him once again. It seemed to
be happening more and more lately, these... moments of tenderness.
“Right,” the doctor said, paling a bit beneath Noah's glare. “I'm sorry. | didn’t mean it like that.”
As we left the doctor's office with an appointment set for two weeks from now, Noah’s arm was wrapped
protectively around my waist. His jaw was set hard as he opened the car door for me, but his eyes were gentle,
worried.
So different. He was so different now.
Our contract had evolved into something more passionate, more intimate lately. We were having sex more than
once a day, sometimes stolen moments in his office or hurried encounters in the shower.

It was almost like we were newlyweds again, unable to keep our hands off each other. The way Noah looked at
just hormones, just the pregnancy makingcrave his touch.

But deep down, | knew it was more than that.
Noah had... changed lately. Glimmers of his old self, the boy I had fallen in love with as a teenager, kept slipping
through the icy facade he usually wore.
He smiled more often, his eyes crinkling at the corners in a way that made my heart skip a beat. He laughed
more readily, the sound rich and warm. He flirted withshamelessly, his eyes twinkling with a roguish charm |
thought he had lost long ago.
| found myself wondering where this version of him had been throughout our entire marriage. | had
missed this Noah, the one who looked atlike | was the only woman in the world.
And as soon as | had gotten him back, we would be divorcing. 1
“Hannah...”
Noah's lips left trails of blazing embers across my back, his hands roaming my spine and hips delicately,
reverently, and yet with a fire that spoke of a deep and primal hunger.
As we reached our peak together, | arched my back for deeper access, my cheek pressed into the pillow. The
sound of our mingled cries filled the room, our bodies trembling against each other.
