Chapter Thirteen

“You are the Keriv’i male that impregnated this human?” Kxiwi asked, tilting her head in speculation as her gaze assessed Khiva.

Khiva’s spine seemed to straighten. “Yes.”

As promised, Eve had brought him back to her so she could draw a sample of blood.

“I have never seen a Keriv’i before,” Kxiwi said, “but I have read about your race. Is it true that your ejaculation triggers sexual responses in most species?”

Khiva’s brow ticked up and Eve sighed. The witch of the witch’s hut, Eve had learned, did not have a filter, nor did she censor her words.

Khiva looked at Eve and then slowly said, “Yes, it is true.”

“Interesting,” Kxiwi said. She was almost the same height as Khiva, though he had a more muscular build. “Will you give me a sample of that? I can fetch you a vial. Unless you need something larger.”

“Okay,” Eve cut in sharply, clapping her hands. She looked at the incredulous look on her male’s features and said, “Don’t mind her. She likes samples.”

“I do,” Kxiwi said, nodding. “Your female gave me a sample of her human tears. I have been running tests on them. Most interesting.”

“‘Interesting’ seems to be your favorite word, healer,” Khiva commented, crossing his arms over his chest. He’d been curious about his surroundings since they both stepped foot inside and had murmured to her that she would never be allowed to come alone again.

Kxiwi cocked her head to the side. “So, I suppose you will not give me a sample of your ejaculation?”

“No,” Khiva said immediately.

“Very well,” Kxiwi said, unfazed. “Perhaps another Keriv’i will. I have heard there are many living on Dumera now.”

“The blood sample, Kxiwi?” Eve urged. This was her third visit to the healer but even after her second, she’d learned how distracted the older female could be.

“Yes, yes,” Kxiwi said. “Wait here.”

Then she travelled around the trunk of the jivera tree in the very center of the dwelling to where she brewed her tonics and potions and ran her tests.

“You are sure she is the best healer on Dumera?” Khiva asked quietly.

“Yes,” Eve replied, squeezing his forearm. “All the females at work, who have had children, told me about her. She is a little unconventional, I’ll admit, but that liquid she gave me for morning sickness helped, didn’t it?”

Khiva frowned and she realized she should’ve bit her tongue. Once Khiva had recovered from his trip to the southern tip of Dumera, he’d seen the bottle of blue liquid in the washroom and had asked about its purpose.

Eve had had to admit the depth of her morning sickness while he’d been gone. His guilt had been…severe. He’d been beating himself up over it ever since, for leaving her alone when she’d been sick.

“How long do Keriv’i females gestate youngbloods for?” Kxiwi asked as she came back around the trunk of the tree.

Eve looked at Khiva, curious. She’d never thought to ask, with everything that had been happening.

“We did not mark time in that way,” he said, his brow furrowing.
