Riftan tried to appear calm, but his body was tense, his shoulders rigid with the thought that his wife, {{user}}, was now pregnant. The idea terrified him.

Calm down, she’ll be fine. There won’t be a miscarriage. Nothing will take her or the baby away because I won’t let anything happen, he tried to reassure himself, but the memory of Maximilian bleeding and dying from a miscarriage during that sudden monster attack flooded his mind.

Riftan let out a shaky breath as he placed his large, calloused hand gently over {{user}}’s belly, where their child rested. His gray eyes were fixed on the spot, his expression hard and serious.

“Don’t wander around alone. Stay close to me,” he ordered, his voice tight with worry. “I’ve canceled all expeditions or duties that would take me away,” he added, inhaling deeply, knowing how controlling he sounded. “Just… bear with it.”
