Raelin

After Igraine leaves, I feel it is my turn to go. I hope not all the good guys have already been taken. So, when Dunla rings her bell for the 11th time, I head towards the torches and get on the path.

Once on the path, I look to my left and right expecting to see Igraine, but I don’t see her at all. Not even a dark shade moving between the trees. I didn’t expect it would be that easy for a person to disappear into this forest. How on earth are the guys supposed to find me like this. I sure hope the moon come peeking from between the clouds and lights everything up a bit.

I start feeling a little moody, so I look down to my lower belly and place my hand on it. Just below my navel. It’s empty now. But before this night is over, I sincerely hope it’ll be full with some guy’s seed. Enough to assure me of a Samhain child. I should be close to my fertile period of the month. With a little luck, not only can I get pregnant tonight, but the spirit of my great grandmother can enter my womb and get a chance to live again. Grandma always says she misses her so much. It would be great for grandma to see her mother again as a newborn.

So yes. Tonight is the night. I will become pregnant. All I have to do now is to find a man who can fertilize me. It doesn’t even matter to me who it is. As long as he leaves his seed in me.
