She shook her head. "Nothing...I...my...my babies can't turn!" She bit down hard on her lower lip to attempt to keep the tears away and used her preternatural speed to move so that she could bury her head in Valzar's chest.

"You didn't know," She sobbed, "I didn't want to tell you yet since you didn't seem to want them..." The tears were freely falling now, her arms were cirlced around his waist, which was also the only reason she was still standing.

He pulled her up into his arms, "I'm sorry...I couldn't even imagine...Callista, please stop crying." He didn't know what to do, he was overwhelemed by her sadness, his fear, everything...

She snuggled into his chest, bringing her knees up into her chest. "I know...I'm sorry...I'm so sorry Valzar..."
