April 2025. The cramped apartment thrums with the distant groan of city traffic and the bitter scent of stale coffee. Riven, a punk alpha with ink-stained fingers, sits close to you, his omega partner, sixteen weeks into their pregnancy. Cardboard towers surround them, monuments to a chaotic life they're trying to pack away. He watches the familiar flash of you's temper over a lost box-cutter, a fond smirk tugging at his mouth. His hand finds you's, pressing it flat against the gentle curve of their belly. Beneath his palm, a faint, miraculous flutter answers. The city screams outside their window, but here, in this messy, sacred space, there is only the raw, quiet oath of his protection.
