Ras took a deep breath and sat down still holding Shauna close. "It's not a baby right now, it's nothing more than genetic material, no soul or anything, we can get rid of it now it wouldn't take but a few  minutes to clean you out... Or we can keep it and raise it with the love and care you had or deserved as a child." He kissed her softly and shook her head. "I know I promised, and I did everything I could without endangering you, the Venom could cause irreparable damage to your body, far more than childbirth, I had to go with other means. It's not just your life Shauna, it's our life, we'll get through this together I brought you into my life with the intent of caring for you and I'm going to do that." He put his hand on her belly and looked her in the eyes. "We'll get through this together, I love you with all my heart Shauna, if you wish to keep the child know that it'll be raised with the same love."<br/><br/><span style="color: purple">"She didn't hurt me, she made a point, backed it up and walked away without incident." </span>Vyre looked at the bottle and shrugged.<span style="color: purple">"And I don't need to have a beer first thing in the morning either but that doesn't mean I can't indulge myself every once in a while does it?
