And Malakai…

Malakai stops moving entirely.

“No.”

I can barely force air into my lungs. “No. No, no, no.”

Another kick.

My stomach jerks beneath my shirt.

Then another shape presses outward.

And another.

Two.

Three.

Moving separately.

“Oh my God.”

The words collapse into a sob.

Something rolls across the inside of my abdomen while another shape pushes against my left side.

There’s more than one.

There’s more than fucking one.

“Get them out.”

Ezra grabs my hand.

I crush his fingers.

“Get them out of me.”

“There’s nothing there.”

My head snaps toward him. “YOU CAN FUCKING SEE IT!”

“I can see it.” His voice breaks. “Sage, I see it, but there’s nothing there.”

Another shape kicks outward.

Ezra flinches. “Oh, fuck.”

“GET IT OUT!”

“I will.”

“NOW!”

“I WILL!”

The Harvest moves.
