Princess couldn't believe what she was hearing. They hadn't even figured out how many pups Faye was carrying, and now Pali was telling her that they might lose every single one of them.
The thought was almost impossible to accept. She had imagined holding their second pups, watching them grow, and seeing them become the mommies they had always wanted to be. Yet, before they had even welcomed those little lives into the world, something was threatening to take them away.
Her arms tightened around the Omega.
Faye remained curled against her, seemingly unaware of the weight of the conversation happening above her head. Her eyes were barely open, and her damp forehead rested against Princess's chest. Every few seconds, her fingers moved against the Alpha, holding on as though she were afraid of being separated from her.
She didn't have the strength to react.
Princess looked at Pali, struggling to keep the fear from spreading across her face.
