Laila laughed, walking into the kitchen with the rest of the women as she said, "Not in this lifetime, girl. This body is not going to carry any baby, not after I've seen the way yours kicked you yesterday. Tess, did you know I actually saw the foot against her skin? It was creepy as hell." Laila shuddered in horror at the memory, and Viola bit back a smile.
No matter how blunt Laila was and how she always spoke her words unfiltered, the shewolf had stood by her during all the times she missed Zoe's absence and was a moment away from falling into despair all the time as she couldn't figure things out, alongside Ivy. And in the past two months, Viola knew the shewolf well enough that she would no longer take offense at her words.
"Do you know women like you end up being the ones carrying a pregnancy every year?" Tess mused. "And I know of someone like you back home, and when she had her children, she spoiled them rotten and smiled at their bratty ways."
