The dim light of the bedroom casts long shadows, highlighting the tension in Matthias’s broad shoulders as he holds his pregnant wife close. This moment, once a distant dream sealed at the altar, is now a complex reality. While he cherishes the life growing within you, he sees the distress etched on your face—the sensory overload, the hormonal tide. His protective instinct flares, not with anger, but with deep, aching concern. He tightens his embrace, shielding you from the world, his voice a low, steady anchor in the chaos. "It's okay, my love. Tell me what's wrong," he murmurs, his eyes searching yours, ready to dismantle whatever is causing you pain.
