Elunara winced. "Bleh, I feel weird today."
Susan grinned. "The goddess is ill? Must be the plague and we're all going to die."
"Ha, ha. Smartass." Elunara tugged Susan's ponytail. "Though, that's a valid point. I'm never ill. My self-healing is too powerful." She rubbed her belly.
"Well, the baby puddle is asleep. Finally." Susan sighed.
"Alright, maybe I just need to focus my energy on whatever it is." Putting her hands on her icky stomach, Elunara began to probe her body with energy. She froze. Checking again, she began to shake. She checked, and she checked, and went over her body with her energy. "FUUUUCCCCKKKK!!!!" She screamed.
All three children began to cry. "Elunara!" Susan gasped.
"INA!!!!!" Elunara jumped and ran.
Jordan and Grogek looked at each other, before immediately running after Elunara.
Susan groaned, as she tried to soothe the children.
Ina ran her hands over Elunara's body. "Nope. I agree with you."
"Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck."
Ina sighed. "I can't say that I disagree with your attitude."
Jordan, Grogek and Varian made it to the healer's building at the same time. "I heard her screaming all the way in the Keep. What's wrong?"
"We don't even know." Jordan shook his head.
"Love, whatever is the matter?" Grogek frowned.
Elunara looked up, tears in her eyes. "I'm pregnant." She whimpered.
"YOU'RE WHAT??!!" All three bellowed at the same time.
"HEY!" Ina jabbed her finger up. "There are sleeping patients in here."
"It grew back. It grew back. It grew back." She rocked back and forth, arms wrapped around her body.
Varian stepped forward and knelt down. "How does that even happen?"
"FUCK THIS GODDESS SHIT!" Elunara bolted up and shoved past the other two men.
"We got to stop her." Jordan took off running.
The three of them found her in the house, face down on the couch. "I hate my body." She grumbled.
Bradly and Darguni came in shortly after. "We were told that momma was running around screaming obscenities."
"Might as well get the women folk in here too." Elunara sighed.
Grogek knocked on Tulani's door. "You're needed."
"I'll go get Lydia. Bradly, go help Susan." Darguni headed out of the door.
Once the entire family was gathered in the living area, Elunara rolled over on her back and stared at her demon skull. "I'm pregnant." She ignored the gasps. "Apparently, my body decided to return me to my original state. I don't know how or why, but my current theory is that every time I used my healing abilities more of it came back. This is the weirdest damned thing ever."
"That's an understatement." Jordan gave a nervous chuckle.
"Momma... does that mean you're going to... destroy yourself again?" Darguni fiddled with his fingers.
"Well, I..." She shook her head. "No." A large portion of tension went out of the room. She sat up. "Baby, the reason I tore myself apart, wasn't because of you. It was because of Lorros. While I never wanted children in the beginning, I wasn't as upset over being pregnant again, as I was over the thought of it being Lorros'. I didn't give him permission to invade me in such a way. Now..." She put her hands on her belly. "Now, there's only three people this one could belong to, and I love them. I'm not so mad."
"Really?" Jordan cocked his head to the side. "How do you know?"
"I know what my practices are," She rolled her eyes. "But, quite frankly, I haven't had a strange dick in me in almost two years. I reserve that for special events." She smirked. "So, yeah only three men, and they're all standing here."
Varian blinked. "I'm actually pretty honored." He murmured.
"You better be." She snorted.
"So, whose is it?" Lydia fidgeted.
"No idea. Not big enough to tell." Elunara concentrated. "Nope. I can only tell that I am, and not much beyond that."
"This is a lot to take in." Susan had a hand to her forehead.
Elunara snorted. "Any other person announcing a pregnancy..."
"Momma?"
"Yes, Lulu?"
"Um..." She fidgeted
"Sweetest, family policy... blurt it."
"If it's Uncle Varian's, does that make her a real princess?"
"Sweetest, YOU are a real princess."
"Yes, you are." Varian nodded. "Your mother is queen, so you are a princess, regardless of parentage."
"Damn." Lulu clamped a hand on her mouth.
"Lulu..." Elunara warned.
