My stepmother is pregnant with my mate's child

"Congratulations, ma'am. Your prenatal checkup results are normal, and the baby is healthy."

I clutched the report tightly in my hand, tears welling in my eyes. After four pregnancies and four miscarriages, my fifth child finally survived the three-month miscarriage curse.

My first thought was to tell Isaac—my mate, my husband—the good news. During those long, heartbreaking nights when I was devastated by the loss of my child, he was the one who held my hand and comforted me.

He would be on the top of the moon after I surprise him with our baby's medical report.
