"I will always have patience with you, Val. I couldn't do anything else."

"You're welcome, Lifemate." Callista smiled and nuzzled his chest again.

Valzar would have been quite content to just lay there holding Callista in his arms for all time. But even in that serene moment he couldn't keep his thoughts from racing...and worrying. Tentatively he reached out with his mind once again to touch those babies.

"I know," he said quietly. "I'm just...trying to understand them."

"I think so. They get to hear my thoughts all the time, but your thoughts are the only insight they have, well, other than my thoughts of you, as to who you are. I think they'd like to know you like they know me."

"How do they do that?" he asked curiously.

"Evidently Carpathian pregnancies are rough...for some reason, my body will try to reject the babies...by attacking them and telling them they aren't wanted...Daddy said that most Carpathians don't hold to term, and that the babies will have an even harder time the closer it comes to their time of birth." Callista frowned and squeezed his hoof. "It is so hard to imagine that I'm not capable of caring for our babies the way I should."

"Your body will do fine," Valzar said quietly squeezing her hoof in reassurance. "I will make certain of that."
