The Wife of Hades

Why was she tired and did not have an appetite these few days?

Did it possibly have anything to do with. . .

An Luxia woke up and looked around, noticing that the sky outside had turned dark already and it was getting quite cold. She got out of bed and put a jacket on, walking out of the room to see that no one was in the hallways.

"Mo Han?" She called in a soft voice, wondering why she was talking quietly as she walked down the hallways to the dining room to see that no one was there as well.

Where did he go? She could smell the food coming out from the kitchen and she scrunched her nose up slightly, not very hungry.

Just as she was about to go into the living room, she heard the click sound of the front door opening, and she immediately went over to the front door, just in time to see Mo Han coming back from outside.

"Where did you go?" She asked, seeing that he did not dress up and was in a casual shirt and pants. It was quite late and it was time for dinner, and Mo Han usually didn't go outside without her often.

Upon seeing her, a smile appeared on Mo Han's face as he held up a plastic bag, shaking it as he took off his shoes and walked over to her, holding her hand as the two of them walked back into the house.

Looking at the bag, An Luxia frowned, "The convenience store? Why did you go to the convenience store at this time? Couldn't someone else go?"

  Mo Han shrugged, "I wanted to go by myself."

"What did you get?" She reached for the bag from Mo Han, who let her have it, and watched as she let go of his hand and flipped through the bag, taking out the receipt first and then the three objects inside.

She grabbed them with one hand, looking at the three identical products. It did not seem to be food. . . She flipped it around in the palm of her hand and her eyes practically fell out when she saw what it was.

"Pregnancy test?! Why. . . Why did you get this?" An Luxia knew the answer to her question already, but she was still surprised, "You think I am pregnant?"

Mo Han took one of the pregnancy tests away from her and looked through the instructions, "I think so. I mean think about it. . . You always seem tired recently and you get very sensitive around oily or heavily flavored food. That doesn't seem like you and they are all symptoms for pregnancy."

  An Luxia thought about it and he was indeed right, but she couldn't believe it. Pregnant?! After all this time, she was pregnant now?

Qi Yu had warned them that the Trap might have had some lasting effects on her body, even if they could not figure anything out through the medical equipment. Perhaps, he had said that it might be harder for her to get pregnant or even pregnant at all.

He said that there could be any side effects that they did not know about, which made Mo Han very angry. And, so Mo Han bought a plane ticket for Qi Yu right away and he was sent back to Country B to work on the things he had been working on before all the accident started happening.

Ah, poor Qi Yu!

  An Luxia looked at the two pregnancy tests in her hand and knit her eyebrows together, thinking intensely about something. After reading through the directions, Mo Han looked at her and raised one eyebrow, "What are you thinking about?"

An Luxia frowned, "Wait one second. . ." How could she ask the question she was thinking about right now out loud?! That would be too embarrassing!

However, after almost a minute, she still could not remember anything, so she finally decided to ask, "It can't be possible!" She exclaimed.

"I don't remember. . . I don't think. . ." She looked down a little embarrassedly, "We did it before during this time period. . ."

  Mo Han raised one eyebrow, licking his lips to hide the smile on his face as he bent down towards her, lowering his voice, "Did you forget about that time in the hospital already? It wasn't too long ago. . ."

  An Luxia's eyes widened as the embarrassing memory immediately returned to her mind as the vivid imagery dirtied her thoughts. It was about three weeks ago, after she had recovered mostly already, and the monster Mo Han obviously couldn't control himself!

  An Luxia threw a pregnancy test at him and angrily marched away, muttering some words underneath her breath that Mo Han couldn't hear as he watched her enter the restroom.

In the restroom, An Luxia tore the pregnancy test open and took out the stick, reading the directions as she followed them one by one carefully, both anxious and excited.

After following all the steps, she held the stick up in the light at eye level, her heart speeding up as she waited.

Slowly, one line showed up. An Luxia immediately looked at the packaging of the pregnancy test to check, and let out what seemed like a sigh of relief and disappointment when she saw that one line meant that she wasn't pregnant..

She put the test down, opening the restroom door as she walked out to see Mo Han standing right there. When he saw her, he raised one eyebrow and couldn't hide the disappointment when he saw An Luxia shake his head.

He took the pregnancy test from her and looked at it, already knowing the answer but still wanting to see for himself.

He held it up and stared at it for several seconds, blinking his eyes several times. Then, he looked up at An Luxia, who had her lips tightly pressed together. For a second, he did not know how to react as he looked down at the pregnancy test one more time.

An Luxia knew that he was also disappointed, but she was wondering why he was staring at the stick for so long. Finally, he looked up at her again.

"You. . ." Mo Han turned the pregnancy stick to face her, "You're pregnant?"
