Back in the present

Vel returned to the present, his lips still touching Lynn’s. He somehow knew barely a fraction of a second had really passed, even if the vision had seemed to last for an hour or more. Lynn pulled back, her eyes wide open, tears pooling in her eyes. “Oh gods, Vel. I, you, me, Ina, and then oh, and oh-“ She was completely incoherent, stammering and babbling, and Vel realized why. Their minds had been deeply connected when the vision hit him. She had said their daughter’s nickname. Lynn must have seen the vision as well, at least some part of it.

He pulled her in for another kiss to shut her up, and she threw herself into it with all her might, her hands running through his hair and beard. When they pulled apart, Ella looked confused and Adi excited. “I felt that. You had a vision again, didn’t you, Vel?” Vel nodded, not taking his eyes off Lynn’s tear-filled ones.” Adi turned to Lynn as well. “And did you see it too? Is that why you’re all-“ She didn’t get to finish. “Yes! Yes, I did! Oh, gods I still can’t believe it, you should have seen our girl, she was so perfect. Oh, Vel, does this mean I am-“ He knew the answer to that, he felt it in his core. “Yes, you’re pregnant. I got you pregnant with that big load earlier.” All three sisters erupted into congratulations, cheers, sobs and thank yous. Ella was tightly hugging Lynn around her waist. “Finally, all three of us are going to be pregnant together! I am so excited!” Lynn gave Ella an adoring look and stroked her little sister’s hair. “Thank you, Cutie. I’m happy you’re so excited for me.”

“Do you have any name ideas yet, Lynn? You came up with a really good one for mine and Vel’s daughter, so I assume you have some ideas ready?” Lynn looked at Vel, as if asking for permission to tell. He was curious to know just how much of the vision she had actually seen, her mind was in far too much turmoil right now for him to easily glean it there, so he nodded for her to go ahead. “We already know her name, we heard it in the vision.” Adi’s mouth dropped open. “It was like a full-on vision, like one of his dreams? And you were there?” Lynn nodded, her smile both shy and proud. “Wow, if I didn’t love you so much, I’d be jealous right now.” Vel chuckled and Adi looked at him. “You know I didn’t mean that.” He did. “And I know you can’t control these, but gods, I would kill to see Licia. I would commit atrocities to see her getting fucked by her Daddy.” Lynn blushed and Adi’s mouth dropped open again. “No way! You saw Vel fuck, uh, we didn’t actually hear her name did we. I kind of sidetracked us. Apologies.”

Lynn smiled at her sister again, clearly not even mildly annoyed. “That’s okay, Adi, this is exciting, and emotions are running high. I get it. And in truth, I appreciated the additional time to collect myself.” She looked at Vel, and he understood what she was asking. “You go ahead and tell them, my love. This is your daughter as much as mine.” Lynn gently touched her tummy and stroked it. “Yes, I did see the two of them make love, it was wonderful. And her name is Eshina. Which doesn’t surprise me, I’ve always wanted to name my first daughter that.” Ella looked delighted. “Oh, that sounds beautiful, Lynn.” Adi looked thoughtful. “It sounds kind of familiar somehow, but I don’t think anyone in our family has been called that, have they?” Vel took it upon himself to answer. “It means something like highborn lady or noble woman in old Vashkai. It is the perfect name for a daughter born from the union of myself and my perfect lady of a sister.” Lynn teared up again, clearly touched. He pulled her in for another kiss.

After they pulled apart once again, Vel decided Lynn should be calm enough that he could ask a few questions. “So, my love, did you see the whole vision? Did it start with us in a huge white bed in some kind of tower, and end with me filling up our daughter as she rode me?” Lynn nodded. “Yes, exactly. It was all I’ve ever dreamed of and more. I was married to the man of my dreams, I was pregnant, and our daughter was with us.” She briefly paused. “And I think we were in Ardalia.” That surprised Vel. “Why do you think that? The silks?” Lynn nodded. “Yes, the silks Eshina and I wore are typical for uh-“ Lynn blushed a little. “Typical for Ardalian courtesans.” Vel chuckled and tickled her chin. “Of course you would be able to tell where we were based on fabrics and clothing.” Lynn was mock offended. “I’ll have you know, the pillars and arches gave it away as well. That was typical pre-imperial Ardalian architecture, likely from the days of the merchant princes.” Vel was genuinely impressed. “Well done, Lynn. Ardalia, huh? I guess we’ll find ourselves there someday, if I can avoid getting killed by singing elves.”

That seemed to frighten Lynn and Ella, so Adi quickly swooped in to change the subject. “Excellent choice of name, Lynn. Naming your daughter noble lady just makes sense.” Ella nodded. “Yes, it’s perfect, and really beautiful. What did she look like?” Vel found he couldn’t share this vision with Adi or Ella either. And unlike with his first two daughters, he’d had no brief shareable glimpse before his longer vision. They had to settle for a description. “Wow, she sounds beautiful. And really sexy, Vel is a lucky Daddy.” Of course, Adi was focused on his pleasure. Ella seemed more preoccupied by something else. “She had differently colored eyes? Wow! That sounds like, super gorgeous!” Vel nodded. “She really was. Is. Is going to be? Something like that.” They kept chatting about the three revealed daughters a bit longer, the sisters all touching each other’s bellies and encouraging Vel to do so too. Eventually though, breakfast called.
