Time moves on

Over the next couple weeks, things are rather hectic, though for pleasant reasons for once. You make plans with builders, craftsmen, and fellow mages. The girls question what you’re doing, but you give them only evasive responses, especially once construction begins in various parts of the castle. Meanwhile, Maya has a good time teasing Anna and Lynn, who are suffering their own bouts of morning sickness now.

Hana seems to fit in with everyone as if she was the missing piece of the puzzle. At times playful like Sadie and Uzume, and at others quiet and shy like Yura and Lynn, her personality as fluid as she is. Surprisingly, Samara and Kali seem to enjoy her company most, which is a mystery to you until the day you catch them mid threesome. Everything is much clearer then, the oversexed Lilim and the needy slime girl a perfect match.

One morning, Maya bursts into your room, topless. “Guess what, my Josh?!”

You chuckle, admiring her half naked body. “You lost all your shirts?”

Maya grins. “No, no, look!”

She turns sideways and rubs her stomach, and now you see the very slight bulge there. “Ohh! Our little one is growing, it seems!”

Maya nods excitedly, bouncing over and kissing you. “It’s really happening, isn’t it! We’re going to have a baby together…”

You smile, holding her close, and you rest your hand on her stomach. She smiles at you, putting her hands over yours. Her tail swings excitedly, and you don’t think she’s ever looked this happy.

You give her a gentle kiss. “The construction should be done today. I think it’s time to share all my secrets with you and the girls. Why don’t you put a shirt on and help me gather everyone.”

Maya smiles. “About time! We’ve been going crazy trying to guess what you’re doing!”

You nod. “It wouldn’t be a good surprise if I told you!”

Maya grins. “True, but I still want to know!”

You laugh. “Well, let me get everyone together, then!”

It takes some doing, but finally everyone is gathered. All the girls watch you expectantly, waiting to hear what you’ve done. You smile, and make your announcement.

“So, I’m sure some of you are not going to be surprised, but I’ve put together some surprises for everyone! As of today, everything is ready. If you’ll follow me, I’ll show you what I’ve done!”
