Chapter 21: pregnant
Renold was given a shock when Lyra was going to fall, instinctively he grabbed her in his arms and laid her on the bed. Mermaid breathe was barely effective in making females unconscious and didn't even work on males and also after waking up it would lose its effects, this is why he was confused that she fell unconscious for the second time so he called the tribe's doctor.
The doctor examined Lyra's pulse and smiled "It is nothing to be scared about, she is pregnant"
Renold stopped his pacing and froze 'Did I just kidnap a pregnant female?'
The doctor continued "She is still in her early pregnancy and she should move into the island where pregnant females reside, it is not optimal for her to stay inside the water bubble for too long"
Not getting any reply the doctor called him "Your majesty? Did you hear my words?"
Renold broke from his daze and turned towards the doctor and asked him to repeat, after listening to the doctor he also thought she should move to the island. Females were the same everywhere and were not able to remain in water bubbles for a long time, even his tribe's females also couldn't remain in the water during pregnancy, so their tribe occupied an island where females with their mates could live.
Lyra stirred in her sleep getting the attention of two mermans in the cave, the doctor merman helped her sit down and asked
"Female, How are you feeling? Do you sense any discomfort or dizziness?
Lyra held her temples and looked up and saw an old man with a worried expression, she answered "I'm okay now. What happened to me earlier? Why did I suddenly feel dizzy?"
The doctor smiled and rubbed her head "You are with a child in your stomach, Congratulations"
Hearing that Lyra went blank for a good minute. 'She was having a baby? Blake's baby? How excited will he feel?' Lyra smiled thinking about it and felt sad because Blake was not with her here. She never imagined getting pregnant at such a young age and was slightly scared because Blake's babies will be little snakes and she was very scared of snakes but heck with it! She already loved them, It does not matter even if they bite her, she would gladly let them. Oh, how cute they will be!!!
