It took me a few days, almost a week, to wrap my brain around the idea of having a kid.
I...
It's something I've always wanted. Growing up I wanted nothing more than to be successful and a mother. And almost four years ago now, that dream was torn to shreds. Werewolves, from my home, we can't have children. It's impossible. Even human women who are mated to werewolf men, almost always lose any pregnancy.
This place is one part cruel and one part wonderful for gifting me with a child, even for the short time. Somewhere, someday, in some version of our worlds, I live up to my dream, and that's comforting too.
