‘Miss Dane...is there a chance that you may be pregnant?’

Aria stared at the pretty blonde doctor who sat perched on the opposite end of the low coffee table in the suite’s living area where the dawn light had just begun to filter in through the windows. She blinked, half thinking she’d misheard the question. It was absurd. She was vaguely aware of Nysio’s swift intake of breath nearby but couldn’t muster the courage to look at him.

‘No. No... Definitely not. I’m on birth control. I have an implant in my arm.’

‘Birth control is not always effective, and you wrote down here that your last cycle was more than six weeks ago. Is it a possibility?’

But as she sat in choked silence, her subconscious continued to analyse the past week and how different she’d been feeling. The food aversions, the vague nausea she’d thought was anxiety, the tender breasts, even feeling more exhausted than usual.

‘It might be a possibility,’ she said hoarsely, the last word coming out as a whisper.

‘Cosa?’ Nysio frowned at her with confusion, then straightened abruptly. ‘You think...you might be...’

‘No,’ she said quickly. ‘Well...I shouldn’t be.’

‘But you might be.’ He stared at her, his gaze unflinching, the sharp tilt of his brows utterly unreadable.

She forced herself to meet that gaze, to straighten her shoulders and accept that this was one situation she couldn’t currently run from. ‘Yeah. I might be.’

Nysio was utterly silent as the doctor listened to her symptoms and gently asked if she’d like to do a quick test to rule it out. She hummed to herself, her feet bouncing of their own accord as she waited and studiously avoided where Nysio sat silently observing.

‘But I have a contraceptive implant,’ she repeated. ‘So this test is just a precaution, isn’t it?’

‘No form of protection is fully effective against pregnancy,’ the doctor said again patiently. Other than never having sex, of course.’ She chuckled, clearly finding humour in her own words. Meanwhile Aria was horrified. The other woman smiled softly, her head tilting to one side as she surveyed the small plastic rectangle in her hands.

‘Well, it appears we have a very clear result.’ She moved closer, placing the test on the surface of the low coffee table between them. ‘You are most definitely pregnant.’
