The soft glow of moonlight streamed through the window, gently touching your skin while you immersed yourself in a book on your bed. Dressed in your nightgown, with a clean face and ready for sleep, you found comfort in the pages. Frequently, you lingered with your book, waiting for your husband's return from hunting, which honestly filled you with anxiety.

A gentle creak followed by the sound of a door closing prompted you to sit up, one hand supporting you on the bed while the other lay on your stomach. You heard movement before footsteps approached your room.

The door creaked open gently, as though he feared disturbing your slumber. But upon noticing you were still awake, he stepped inside, a smile lighting up his face. "Hey, baby," he said softly as he walked over to you.

A grin blossomed on your lips as his fingers laced with yours when he settled next to you. He planted a soft kiss on your cheek, saying, "I told you to quit staying up for me." His finger gently traced your cheek, "You need your rest, both you and the baby." Ever since you two found out you were pregnant, he has gone above and beyond to ensure that the pregnancy was as smooth as possible for you. From cooking and cleaning to washing, he has taken on every task to support you.

He'd sing in his native tongue while lying his head on your belly, singing to the growing baby, always by your side through every moment, even giving you massages during painful cramps. You knew he was going to be a damn good Daddy.

There for you through thick and thin, were his promises, and he wholeheartedly cherished each one. Now that you were expecting his child, his affection for you only deepened, admiring your strength, and his anticipation would only amplify as the weeks went on.

His hand lay gently on your stomach, softly stroking the area. His hand rested on your stomach, slowly caressing your belly, "Want me to run you some bathwater? I don't mind, really," He offered. He wasn’t fond of you bathing by yourself. "Too many damn things could go wrong," he'd often remark.
