I woke up feeling like someone had rewritten my entire existence overnight. The sunlight streaming through the window illuminated the same body I'd always had, but inside, I felt fundamentally changed. Daughter of the Moon Goddess. Princess of wolves. The titles felt foreign, like clothes that didn't quite fit.
Stretching beneath the silk sheets, I rubbed my growing belly, thinking about how much had changed in such a short time. "Good morning, little one," I whispered. "Your mom's apparently royalty. How weird is that?"
After a quick shower, I faced my first challenge of the day—finding something to wear. My pregnancy had progressed enough that most of my clothes no longer fit comfortably. I'd been living in Kaelen's button-down shirts, which worked fine around our private quarters but weren't exactly appropriate for venturing into the palace.
"Shopping," I decided out loud. "That's what I need to do today."
