Chapter Eight

“Well, Ms. Dubois, I have some good news for you.”

The doctor shot her a bland smile, and Sascha wondered if she remembered the time she’d been here with Andrei at her side. Or the last time with Sawyer and Devon acting as her guardians…

They’d been quite pleasant to her, but Andrei hadn’t. He’d been stern with the doctor. In fact, he’d been rather rude. She wouldn’t have minded though. Better rudeness than being alone. Kurt had been in his writing cave all night, and she’d decided to leave him to his work and be a big girl by going to the doctors herself.

She hated being a big girl sometimes.

“You do?” Sascha answered the woman, shooting her an equally limp smile in return.

“Yes. The scans came back clear. We didn’t miss anything during your stay in hospital. You had a nasty concussion, but you’re on the mend. And your cast can definitely come off today.”

She blinked. “That is good news.” Sascha was about ready to hack the pot off her arm with a table knife. The itch… sweet Lord, it was worse than her memories of the chicken pox.

“But the reason we called you back in sooner than scheduled is because the blood tests also show that you’re pregnant.” She gave a tight smile. “It would have been good to know there was a potential for pregnancy—we would have followed safety procedures while you were being X-rayed.”

For a second, the world came to a halt. Everything screeched to a stop as the word ‘pregnant’ reverberated around her head like the doctor had spoken through a loudspeaker that was echoing like a yodeller in the middle of the Austrian Alps.

“Pregnant?” she gasped, eyes flaring wide. “But I’m on the pill.” She clung to that statement like the lifeline it apparently wasn’t.

“Yes. I’m afraid it failed you,” the woman said, not sounding afraid at all.

In fact, the only person afraid here was Sascha.

Pregnant? She couldn’t be. Could she?

Well, she’d done a lot of stuff that usually helped make a baby. But…

No.

It couldn’t be… She couldn’t be.

But the doctor seemed to think she was. And she went on and on in the same vein. Spewing a lot of words at Sascha, handing her booklets and brochures, telling her she had to schedule appointments, visit the nurse, do this, this, and this…

Through it all, Sascha just sat there. Gawking. Delirious.

Pregnant?

There was a thing growing inside her?

She gulped at the thought. Hell, this wasn’t Alien. The thing was a baby.

And that baby was…

Well, the baby had a potential pool of five fathers.

She scratched her head. Who was the dad? In their household, did it matter? Or was it unimportant? Would they mind not knowing who the biological father was? Hell, would they mind being a dad period?

Andrei hadn’t, had he? Nor Kurt.

Sean had told her how he and Kurt had worked together to try to make a go of things before Katrin had had an abortion. And Andrei was still hurting over that.

Sean and Devon were dark, Andrei and Kurt blond, with Sawyer coming in as a redhead.
