* * * *

Troy bundled on the bed as soon as he got inside his room. He wanted to sleep and wake up only when the thing inside him was gone. He didn’t care how and what happened to it, he just wanted it gone.

“I’m going, okay?”

Troy nodded at Emery and pulled the blanket higher over his head. He heard Emery sigh before he left, and while Troy felt a bit guilty at what he was putting his mate through, he couldn’t bring himself to care. He had other things on his mind, things that were bigger and more important than a few hurt feelings.

Troy tried to fold himself into a fetal position, but this stomach thing stopped him. It was big, bigger than the last time he’d seen it before ending up in the infirmary, and it scared the crap out of him. He couldn’t wrap his head around the fact that there was something inside of him, something that shouldn’t have been there and that shouldn’t even exist.

Troy wanted to rip the thing out of his body, but he didn’t want to die in the process. Jared had said that he had to wait until it came out on its own and he’d do that, but he didn’t care what happened to it after. He already knew Emery and he were going to fight over that, though.

Troy had seen the look in Emery’s eyes when he’d looked at Troy’s stomach and when Jared had talked about what was inside of it. He wanted the thing. He thought it was a baby, and he wanted it.

Troy thought it was a monster, and he didn’t want to ever see it again after the birth. If he needed to leave to obtain that, then that was what he’d do. His heart squeezed painfully at the thought, but he tried to dismiss the feeling. Sure, he’d gotten used to Emery in the weeks since they’d gotten together. He liked the guy. Emery was funny and happy most of the time. He turned deadly when someone he loved was threatened, though, and he had no problems kicking asses during training. Emery was a strange mix of serious and carefree, deadly and sweet. He was smart and caring, and Troy knew he’d won the mate jackpot.

That was the only thing that made him hesitate. He slowly reached down with his hand and skimmed it along his swollen belly. As soon as his fingertips made contact, he snatched them away as if his stomach was on fire. He couldn’t bring himself to touch it. He couldn’t even touch his own body.

Troy’s stomach twisted with nausea and he jumped up from the bed. He reached the bathroom just in time and sank to his knees in front of the toilet. He wasn’t sure how long it took him to feel better, but two strong hands suddenly grabbed his arms.

“Troy? What happened? Are you sick again?”

Troy shook his head. “I’m fine.”

“You sure? I can go get Jared.”

“No, it’s okay.
