Three months into my pregnancy, I'd learned that morning sickness was a cruel misnomer- it struck whenever it damn well pleased. Which was why I was currently bent over a trash can in the counseling office while Riley held my hair back and made sympathetic noises.
"I thought this was supposed to get better after the first trimester," I groaned, wiping my mouth with the tissue she handed me.
"Dr. Sarah said some wolves experience it longer." Riley's voice was gentle, but I could hear the amusement underneath. "Especially with strong Alpha bloodlines."
"Duke's bloodline can kiss my ass right now."
She laughed, the sound bright and free- so different from the terrified girl who'd arrived at the sanctuary months ago. "Want me to reschedule your session with the new arrival?"
