"You heard everything?" Liara asked Moana, who was standing not very far from them.
"Yes! Unfortunately, I had to update Theo. I mean Theodore as well because you blocked him when he tried to mind-link you, and you also did not receive his call." Moana said they left there in a hurry. "So, do you think he will help? He didn’t even tell his name."
"Well, he had helped us somehow." Liara pointed out the positive point.
"What if you disappear somewhere where he can’t find you at the time of delivery?"
"Well, the truth is that I have no idea when my baby will be born." "If my pup is a werewolf, then he will take three months, but if he is a Lycan pup, then no one can predict because he can pop up anytime when he is ready."
"He? So, just like your mate, you’re pregnant with a boy?" Moana asked. Liara looked at her and realized that she might not have heard him carefully.
"Maybe." Liara shrugged. Instead of telling her the truth, she just brushed off that topic. When Liara reached home, she narrated everything to Theodore that had happened in the mall. Theodore tried not to get mad at her for not receiving his call or blocking him.
His mate was a grown woman, and he needed to stop complaining if she did something that he didn’t like. She knew what she was doing.
‘Love can never possess. Love is giving freedom to your partner.' Alaric told him once.
"Your half-brother looked like a nice person to me," Liara said, to which Theodore rolled his eyes.
"Yeah, right! To me, he sounded arrogant the way he didn’t tell you his name." He muttered calmly.
"I see, you aren’t getting mad, not even at the part where he held my hands."
"Well, should I be jealous? Or mad at that part? I’m lucky that others are only allowed to hold your hands, arms, or shoulders. I’m allowed to have your pussy."
"Odooo!" she exclaimed.
"Finish your ice cream and pickles, Lolo. After that, I will drink my juice." Liara blushed at that last word, knowing which juice he was talking about. But hey, dare anyone comment on her choice of craving? "By the way, when are you planning to go to the hospital? I mean, I read that a pregnant lady should rest."
"Maybe till the last day of my pregnancy, so that I can give our pup as much time as I can," Liara responded. "I know you’re taking classes on how to handle everything in pregnancy, but if you want, you can take tips from Calvin in the case of handling a pup, you know." She suggested, placing her hand over his.
"Asking for help is never a sign of weakness. It's one of the bravest things you can do."
"Noted, sweetheart."
After a moment, Liara entered their bedroom. She saw Theodore holding the pillow in his arms very carefully and rocking it at the interval for some time. She silently stayed there, leaning against the door and watching this beautiful view.
‘You’re going to be an amazing father, Odo.' She thought about it and missed her father.

"Lee is pregnant," Sophia muttered again, trying to handle this news. She was happy for her, but at the same time, she was sad that she had learned this news from someone else instead of her daughter. But then she couldn’t blame Liara, could she?
"This is all because of you. Calvin, contact the best divorce lawyer in the city. I’m kicking this man out of my life as well as my property." Sophia said, gritting her teeth in anger.
"Hahahhaha!!! Hahahhaha!!!" Calvin was laughing at his father’s state when his mother had just threatened his father to divorce him for the second time. A week had passed since he arrived from Black Council and was planning to tell them about Liara’s pregnancy, but before he could share this news with them, they learned it from Ethlyn Smith’s parents.
"Shut up!" Brandon growled at Calvin and held Sophia’s hand to calm her down. "Mon Amour."
"No, Hunter. Enough is enough. I want my daughter, my Lee, now. Because of your anger and your punishment, I placed a stone on my heart and didn’t keep any contact with her, but not anymore." Sophia said, taking her hand out of his.
"I respected your anger at first, but now a mother inside me is ready to kick your ass if you will stop me from meeting my daughter. Hell, I couldn’t sit silently after knowing that my pup is pregnant, and I didn’t check on her once." She added. Tears dwelled in her eyes. "I know how it feels when my mother wasn’t present with me during any of my pregnancies." I don’t want Lee to suffer the same thing, not when I’m alive."
