Josie’s POV **

How is this happening? Mason is 22 years old, he shouldn’t be fertile. I get up off of the bed and begin pacing. Trying to keep my breathing under control before I have a full–blown panic attack.
“This doesn’t make sense. You said none of them were fertile yet,” my voice shakes and I feel my bonds all reacting to the surge of emotions twisting through me like tornado.
“It’s extremely rare. It could have been something to do with the healing he was having but I can’t say for sure. I’m not even 100% sure you are pregnant, we’d need to confirm it with a test but I can smell him on you and that’s the only possible explaination I have for that,” Deacon explains.
“I’m going to change my name to Rare because every time you tell me something is rare it happens!” I throw my arms up in the air dramatically.
“This is all going to be okay, Josie, we will work it all out. I’m going to take care of you, both of you,” Deacon soothes as he stops my pacing, wrapping his arms around me so my back is pressed to his front. I place a hand on
abdomen and he puts his on top of it.

“I’m going to have a baby,” I cry, finally processing what this actually means. Pregnancy is a scary word, but there’s an actual life here, a baby that’s growing inside me and I love it already.
“Yes, we a
are,” Deacon says and I feel his love too. He already loves it as much as I do.
“Why can’t we tell the others?” I ask, I want to tell them the moment we work out how to communicate with them.
“Because they’ll do something stupid. They’re already on the verge of trying to get here, which is almost certain to get them killed. I almost got lost in the void and I have much more experience in teleporting than Luke. If Luke tries to bring them though we will lose them all. The moment they find out you are carrying a child they will attempt to port through,” he explains and fear trickles down my spine at the thought of losing them forever.
“Then we will tell them when we get home,” Lagree. “Can we go tomorrow?”
“That’s another issue. I’m not risking taking you back through there. It was hard enough alone, with you it will be even more difficult,” he says and my heart plummets into my stomach. He can’t get me back there. The air becomes too thick as I fight for breaths. “Relax, try to slow your breathing,” he soothes. “I’m not going to leave you, if I have to stay here with you forever I will, but that won’t happen. It may take some time but we will rebuild the portal between the realms and we will be reunited with the others. Now that we can potentially communicate with them we can help rebuild from this side. Mason has a molecular gift so we should have access to that too. He can guide us on how to use it. I have every Grey with a molecular gift being gathered to try to repair the fracture on their side, we just need to coordinate our efforts with theirs,”
“What timescale are we looking at?” I ask, worry gnawing at me.
“Until we get started and communicate with the others I have no idea but as soon as it’s safe I will you get there,”
“And what if we can’t get back by the time I give birth? You really expect us to be able to hide this from them for that long?” I lean back into him, trying to steal some of his warmth.
“We will need to get you seen by a doctor to confirm how far along you are. I suspect you conceived right before. you were taken otherwise your heat would have ended sooner. So I guess we have about 18 weeks to figure all this
out.

“Excuse me…18 weeks? Don’t you mean 38 weeks?” I sputter, almost choking on the air.
“You’re a superhuman, Josie, so you will grow that little one at superhuman speed. I’m sorry you didn’t know that, we all should have made more of an effort with your education,” he holds me tighter, kissing my shoulder. I’m going to be a mother in less than 5 months and I’m trapped in the wrong realm without all my bonds. Oh, and I also need to stop whatever it is that the rouge Greys are up to. No big deal, I’ve got this.
“There’s another issue we have to deal with,” I sigh, fighting to stay calm so I dont panic my
bonds.
“What is it?” he asks, leading me back to the bed and pulling off the duvet to wrap around me and wrapping the towel back around his waist whilst I tell him the little information I have about what the Greys might be doing
here.
“I’ll look into that but our priority has to be fixing the portal between the realms. We need to get you and the baby safe first and then we will come back with an army to put a stop to whatever is happening here,” Deacon says confidently, gently pulling me onto the bed to lay on top of him. “Try to get some sleep,” he adds as I adjust the duvet to cover us both then I rest my head against his chest.
“I’m not sure I can sleep, there’s so much to think about,” mumble as he strokes my hair.
‘Everything will still be there to think about tomorrow, sleeping will probably help to form the connection with the others. Our brains probably need to rewire or something, sleep should speed up the process,” he says and I’m sore he just made that up but the feel of his warm skin against mine soothes me into a sleepy daze.
“Thank you for coming for me,” I squeeze him a little tighter, just to prove to myself he really is here and I’m not dreaming this whole thing.

“Of course, I will always come for you. How could I not? From the second I first heard your name I knew you mine, and the moment I saw you, you stole not only my breath but my heart, Josie. So dont ever doubt that I will find you,” he admits and a tear escapes my eye. How can I be so unbelievably happy and sad at the same time? I fall asleep feeling as though I’m surrounded by my bonds. All five of them.
