Chapter 314 Where you are, there’s me
After reaching back to the treehouse, Kyra couldn’t help but ask Damon, "When are we leaving? I can already feel summer beginning, and Vincent... maybe he’s out of hibernation by now. He must be so anxious..." She began pacing around the living room, her mind racing with worry.
Lucas, watching her from where he sat, chuckled and said, "Ky-ky, stop. You’re making me dizzy just looking at you. And don’t forget, you’ve got little snakes in your stomach that need rest too."
Kyra froze at his words. Little snakes?
"Hey..." she walked toward them, her face a mix of confusion and anxiety. "What did you just say?"
Damon, noticing her sudden stillness, raised a brow. "What’s wrong, little thing?"
"So... I’ll lay eggs? Will my babies be born as snakes?" she asked, her voice trembling with uncertainty. "I heard snakes give birth in litters... will I lay a bunch of eggs too?"
Lucas quickly pulled her into his lap, gently cupping her face. "It’s fine, Ky-ky, relax. Yes, it depends on the situation. From what I’ve heard, if you’re pregnant with boys, they’ll be born in eggs, but only in their beast form. If it’s a girl, she’ll be born in her human form, no eggs. So don’t worry, okay?" He leaned closer, trying to soothe her. "And yes, we’re leaving in a week, back to Celestia. We’ll reunite with Vincent. I miss him so much. After that, we’ll go back home and see Mom, Daddy’s, Toma, Jimmy, and everyone."
Kyra leaned into his touch, smiling softly. "I can’t wait for that," she whispered, feeling a sense of calm return. But then, her expression changed again, sadness clouding her eyes as she looked toward Damon.
Damon, always attuned to her emotions, leaned forward. "What is it, little thing?" he asked, his tone gentle yet concerned.
