As Halo answered his question, he leaned forward, his full attention on her. He already knew he couldn’t carry a child, but he had asked his question and wanted the full answer to it. It seemed Halo was more than ready to provide information, even going so far as to promise to confer with other healers. That thought made him blush. He wasn’t sure he wanted her to air his problems with strangers, but he trusted she would keep his name out of it.

He let it cool in his paws. “Is there a way… to…. Impregnate” He couldn’t meet her eyes. “A woman, without… sleeping with her?”
