She felt completely safe with her husband, and she was willing to put her life in his paws. As she was doing on the island, she hadn't let the thoughts of bearing children with out a healer. Hopefully she could remember enough from Fern's birth to help.. but she knew she couldn't rely on that. She'd blocked as many memories from that day as she could, it had become almost a black hole now. She could be happy on the island, so she would keep shoving unpleasant responsible thoughts flee from her mind. Alpine would excitedly respond to the children's movements, his features falling to her swollen belly. He would look up at her, the look in his eye dissipating any doubts she had. He was there, and everything would be okay while she was in his care. She knew it. Hearing his hearty laugh would bring a smile to her face as he whispered to her and the children within her. ?I?m just as excited to meet them? She would nuzzle him, utter devotion and love in her lidded eyes. "I'm so happy to hear it." These children had a family to be welcomed into. These children had a hope, and her heart would ache for her lost child. She had failed Fern so deeply, she could only put her faith in Alpine. He would help her, these children would live. |
