Both Kira and Reana froze. Stunned.
"Child?" They chorused. Both looked down at Reana's flat stomach.
Kira slowly glanced up to her face. "Luna… is it true?" Her voice was hoarse, almost inaudible.
Reana's lips parted and closed in disbelief. She wanted to deny it, but her breath caught in her tightened throat, lungs refusing to expand.
"Say something, Luna. Are you pregnant?"
Meanwhile, Shadow One who'd been watching over Reana, widened his eyes in horror.
'No, no, this cannot be happening!' with that, he vanished.
Vaurenox glanced at the spot – in the void that Shadow One had been – and grinned, wide and wicked, like a serpent who had just discovered a crack in heaven's gate.
"My, my," he said, stepping back slowly, clapping his hands once, mockingly. "What a disaster your Little Chaos will bring."
Reana's knees weakened. Her hand hovered once more over her stomach, fingers trembling.
