“I’m here, my Lumi,” I murmured against his hair. “Go ahead and look.”
He swallowed, nodded, and turned over the Earth test first.
A hitch in his throat, then a sniffle. He started trembling in my arms.
But he didn’t slump.
He started crying after looking at the test from his own world.
I turned my mate and held him, waiting for him to tell me what I already knew.
“I-I… I am…” he said between sobs. “I am going to be… a father.”
???
“This is your first assessment since your mate was confirmed pregnant a few weeks ago, am I right?”
I nodded at the technician. “That’s right.”
“Any changes to report?”
I shook my head and looked away as he set up to draw blood. “Nothing major. I’m more protective and possessive, but not to the point where it interferes with my work or interactions with others.”
“Don’t worry. That seems to be a common side effect. Earlier groups reported similar feelings, but they settled by the second trimester. It’s likely linked to the hormonal changes of your partner, and how delicate pregnancies are at this stage. Let us know if the feelings become overwhelming though.”
I nodded. “Ok.”
“Anything else?”
I squirmed. “I… umm… is an increased… appreciation… for cockwarming normal? It had always sounded like something nice to try before, but now…” I trailed off as I remembered having my cock in Lumi for an entire movie the night before.
He laughed. “It’s not uncommon. I’d say somewhere between a third and half of participants report it as a regular bonding activity. I would be surprised if the number isn’t significantly higher, but we haven’t added it to our normal questions yet and not everybody self-reports all sexual activity. It’ll likely be included in future questionnaires though since the number of participants reporting it is so high.”
“Ok.”
He wrapped my arm. “Leave that for half an hour. According to my notes, you have a brain scan next, then back to normal duty for the rest of the day.”
“That’s what I was told too.”
“Ok. You know the drill. Report any sudden mental or physical changes. Make your next appointments before you leave. We’ll let you know if anything strange shows up in your bloodwork or on your brain scan, but otherwise, you’re good. Everything you’ve reported is within expected parameters.”
“Thank you.”
He nodded, and I hopped down from the stool.
I was walking down the hall to the radiology department when I passed a slightly open door—where I spotted Dr. Wallace and Eashai making out. A quick glance as I continued past made me think the blue man had the beginnings of a baby bump.
I shook my head. It was none of my business, and—if they were together—I understood that desperate need to touch as often as possible.
If anything, I was surprised that men sneaking off for makeout sessions wasn’t more common.
I chuckled. We all were sex addicts with our alien husbands now, after all. And Lumi and I definitely fucked like rabbits.
???
It was strange. The sound of the sea was almost the same, but I was lying on a beach on a planet almost a hundred light years from Earth—Lumi tucked against my side. Above us the sky was teal-green, the planet’s star a fuzzy blur thanks to a thick blanket of clouds in the upper atmosphere.
Despite their advanced technology and spacefaring capability, the cities looked nothing like the high-tech imaginings of artists on Earth when they thought of alien worlds. There were no towering skyscrapers of gleaming metal and glass, no enclosed domes of habitation. Instead, most buildings were only three or four stories. Fruiting trees lined all the paths, and common needs did seem within walking distance just as another of the Lalyllte had stated.
