There was a knock at the door, which was weird because visitors normally had to be buzzed up. Confused, I opened it to find an older woman with a leather-bound case and a businesslike demeanor in what appeared to be a hundred-year-old styled black dress. "Yes?" I asked.
"Kate is expecting me," the woman said as she brushed past me. She paused a moment, orienting, and then turned toward Kate's bedroom. I closed the apartment door and followed. I wasn't about to try to stop this lady...I wasn't even sure I could, depending on what she was.
She pushed open Kate's door and regarded the extremely pregnant witch laying on her bed. "Well, look at you, dear. Ready to pop, and still able to cast a missive spell. I've never seen the like." She moved to Kate's bedside.
"Hello, Ms. Tisdale," Kate greeted the woman as she grimaced in pain. After a few seconds she relaxed.
I stepped into the room. "You're having contractions?"
Ms. Tisdale looked at me. "Yes, which is why she called for a doula." She turned back to Kate. "Is this the father?" Kate nodded, beaming at me.
"Doula?" I asked.
The older woman sighed in exasperation. "Google it! Now get out." Suddenly I was shoved backward by an invisible force and the door slammed in my face.
"Well, fuck you too," I muttered before I went and googled what a doula was. Oh.

A couple hours passed until I heard a "whoomp" sound from Kate's room, and then a baby crying. I jumped to my feet. I hadn't even heard Kate crying out in pain! I rushed to the door and opened it to find Kate, soaked in sweat, a godawful mess on her bed, and Ms. Tisdale holding a teeny baby in her arms.
Kate was crying. I moved forward and held her.
Ms. Tisdale finished clamping the baby's umbilical cord and handed her to Kate. "Congratulations, my dear, and I'm sorry."
I looked at her. "Sorry?"
Kate pointed at the closet and took the baby from the older woman. I looked, and the portal to Kate's lab was gone.
"I lost my powers," she whimpered. "I knew it would happen, but..." She continued to cry.
"I shall take my leave of you," Ms. Tisdale said as she packed up her bag. "Our relationship and bond are now over, Kate." She gave me a pointed look. "Take care of both of them, Tom...I have high expectations for that baby." Then she was out the door.
I waited until I heard the apartment door close. "She's a major cunt, huh?"
Kate snorted. "Heh...yeah...she was my teacher way back when. You get that way when you can never have sex."
Right, because she'd lose her powers, just like Kate. "So, many witches are bitchy spinsters?"
She looked adoringly at the baby's face. "Pretty much."
We had already bought diapers and baby clothes, but skipped formula, as Kate's large boobs had already started to lactate. She brought the baby to one of them and was able to get her to latch on without trouble.
"Ooh, ha..." Kate gasped. "Feels weird..." Then she looked down at my crotch. "Enjoying the view, are you?"
I looked down. My cock was hard. "Um...huh..." I mumbled, embarrassed.
"I won't be able to do much about that for the next few weeks, mister, but when the time comes, you're gonna shove that cock all the way inside me. My virginity's gone and I'm gonna enjoy what comes next."
"Yes ma'am!"

Kate said that the baby's true name had already been registered with Ms. Tisdale for their coven, but it would never be revealed outside of that group. I would never know my daughter's true name! Given how crestfallen I seemed from this information, Kate allowed me to choose what the baby would be called. I bounced about through some names, but finally came up with Amy, which was the name of the comatose girl whose body Kate had taken possession of when she had to leave her old body behind. Kate nodded, satisfied.
