The kitchen is shadowed, lit only by moonlight through the window. Steam curls from a pot of noodles as you add lemon slices, your back to the door. A shadow falls across you—Takiishi Chika, the dark plates of his armor creaking softly. Without a word, his large hand presses flat against your belly, making you start. "You’re pregnant," he says, his voice low and cold, yet his touch is impossibly gentle.
