Simon knew exactly what was wrong with him. He hadn’t been lying about that just to get Nathan off his back. The awareness of his own dilemma seemed to spring up out of nowhere while he was bent over the toilet, trying to vomit up the nothingness he had eaten.

This sickness that came only in the morning.

The constant presence that showed itself along with the sickness.

Both of these things were hardly enough evidence upon which to base his assumptions, but he knew he was correct. He wouldn’t be feeling this way if it was an ordinary cold or anything like that.

He just needed to confirm it.

Except, he had no idea where to go to do that. Anywhere shapeshifters lived, there were going to be hidden places set aside by shifters, for shifters. Little stores where a shifter could buy necessities aimed at them, and things like that. Shifter-friendly doctors, shifter-friendly insurance agencies. This information was handed down by word of mouth, since someone couldn’t exactly declare aloud that they dealt with people who were half-animal.

Simon was aware of a few business that would deal with his own kind, but he didn’t know anything about this place in particular. Hell, he wasn’t even entirely sure this sort of thing existed. He had never had any need to know such things.

There was no one he could ask. His mother would freak out, his father would go along with whatever his mother did. He had no friends who could give him advice, and he didn’t want to go to the doctor until he was absolutely certain.

That left the question of whether or not a pregnancy test for humans would work with a male shifter. The hormone detection might not be the same. Hell, Simon wasn’t even sure if the same hormones were produced when a man was pregnant. He hadn’t needed to know.

The fact that he could feel a wolf pup growing inside him, its soul developing, wasn’t enough to convince him. He needed to see it for himself or the situation wouldn’t be quite real.

In any case, there was nothing he could do for the rest of the day. The nausea was too much. He mostly drank tea and dozed, on and off throughout the entire night until around 1 a.m. Hunger pangs woke him, and he ate an entire sleeve of crackers. Every single one stayed down, though a new bout of nausea several hours later almost got the best of him.

At least it seems better this morning.

Not enough for him to go to the school and act as if everything was fine, but good enough for a drive to the drugstore.

After showering and getting dressed, Simon felt almost like himself again. He still looked sick, his cheeks pale, bags gathering under his eyes like they were packing up to go on vacation, but there wasn’t anything he could do about that. At least he figured he would look right at home wandering aimlessly through the shelves in front of a pharmacy.
