Byron remembered that in nature, male seahorses were, indeed, those who, for lack of a better word, gave birth. “Yes, but that’s different. Your mother would have to… err… provide the eggs.”

“I know.” Skylar seemed to be growing more and more nervous.

“That’s how it usually works, and it’s the reason why, to reproduce, seahorses have to be in shifted form. It’s just that… For males of our species, that ability has evolved. It doesn’t appear in all seahorses, but a lot of fathers can give birth to children even when their partner is another man.”

“How is that even possible?” Byron inquired, still shell-shocked.

“The pouch that allows us to carry in shifted form works like a gland that secretes a special hormone. It makes it possible for male seed to fertilize the seahorse in question and later grows into the uterus we need for the baby. Of course, fathers generally give birth in seahorse form, to allow the pouch to open naturally.”

“And you’re telling me this now?” Byron roared.

“I’m sorry.” Skylar’s lower lip trembled as if he were suppressing the urge to cry. “At first, I just didn’t think it was possible between the two of us, and when I figured out it might be, it was already too late. We were already having sex. I didn’t know how to tell you.”

Byron felt like a heel for shouting at Skylar. He never raised his voice at Skylar. In fact, he rarely lost his temper at all, and when he did get angry, he spoke in a whisper, not loudly. But this time, it was different. It wasn’t just anger that passed through him, but also hurt, guilt, and terror.

How could he explain to his lover that shark children weren’t like seahorses? They were carnivorous from the womb, and could even eat their siblings if any existed. And with Skylar being a seahorse, Byron feared what the fetus might do. Perhaps it would even go against its carrier.

Still, in spite of it all, beneath the nervousness, sadness, and apprehension, Byron could sense another emotion in Skylar—

happiness. Whatever Byron said or thought, Skylar wasn’t afraid.
