The Grand Duke's Soulmate

However, Kyren’s last sentence troubled her.

"It’s our child, Kyren," she corrected, her tone gentle.

"Ah, yes! Of course, my dear!" the grand duke responded, placing his hand on her abdomen. "Our child."

Once more, Anna felt a sense of unease as Kyren’s hand settled just above her navel, on her upper abdomen. "The baby’s not there," she clarified.

"Not here?" Kyren raised an eyebrow. "Then where?"

"A bit lower."

"Here?" he inquired, shifting his palm to her midsection, right at the navel area.

"No. Lower."

"Here?" Kyren moved his hand a bit further down.

Growing annoyed by his repeated errors, Anna took her husband’s hand and guided it to her lower abdomen.

"Here," she pressed his hand gently.
