Quickening, Vol. 2 eBook

Little Goddess: Book Five Volume Two The elf queen who infected the werewolf population isn't going away—and neither are the two heartbeats that will soon be the children in Cory's arms. Cory's used to throwing herself physically into the fray, but as their enemy gets closer and more dangerous, she's forced to choose between her safety and the people sworn to protect her. Her guardians are tired of worrying about Cory and her unborn children, and Cory is getting plain tired. The preternatural world isn't her only worry—basic human birthing rituals are going to be a pain in the ass for a woman whose children will be sidhe. Cory's mother is still fuzzy on the concept of a polyamorous multispecies marriage and sets her up with an OBGYN obsessed with the inhuman silhouettes of her babies. Cory doesn't want her children born in the middle of a turf war, but the people she and Green have nurtured and fought for aren't about to let her face this enemy alone. This battle is for queen and home, and the babies quickening in Cory's body are a symbol of hope. Cory's going to have to give up the idea of being a weapon and embrace the idea of being a mother, or she'll let down those depending on her most.
