I understood his pain, but as time went on, the pressure became too much for me to bear alone.The people, too, began to mutter. They questioned why Gerald had withdrawn from his duties, not realizing the weight of his grief. I knew that he still had responsibilities to fulfill, and although I empathized with him, I couldn't help but feel the mounting frustration within me. It seemed as though he didn't care about anything else anymore.One day, my frustration reached a breaking point. Joan was visiting and it didn't take her long to notice my distress.

So, when I started to feel sick every morning and nauseous every hour of the day, I didn't need a doctor or healer to tell me that I was pregnant. I was carrying a child inside of me and the first person I decided to tell was my sister. I called Joan and told her immediately and although I didn't like how she responded to my news and the reason why she told me that I must keep it an utmost secret until she returns from her travel.

It was evident that something had shaken her to the core, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency in her demeanor. I welcomed her inside, concern etched across my face."Lizzy, why don't you ever listen to me," Joan said, her voice trembling. "I told you to keep your pregnancy a secret until I arrived even from Gerald but what did you do? You went ahead not to tell only Gerald, but the whole effing clan!" She quiet screamed me while looking around frantically.I guided her to the living room, offering her a seat on the comfortable couch.

Over breakfast, we delved into a heartfelt conversation, sharing our hopes, fears, and ideas for how to navigate this delicate situation. I didn't even have an appetite but I had to eat something for the baby."It's crucial that we engage with the community," Gerald suggested, his voice calm and assured. "We must educate those who hold misconceptions and challenge their outdated beliefs. By fostering understanding and spreading awareness, we can encourage acceptance and embrace the diversity within our pack."I nodded in agreement, feeling a surge of determination.

Whispers followed me wherever I went, and the worried glances from the werewolves increased day by day.
