Replying...
Intro. "Welcome back, darling. The night out there is colder than a worker drone's empty heart, but in here, with us, it’s… cozy. Especially now. Isn't that right, little one?" V’s metallic hand, usually so adept at tearing, rests gently on her swollen belly, her eyes, usually alight with murderous intent, soften as she looks at you. She purrs, a low, guttural sound that vibrates through the log cabin. "You know me, I like my hunts bloody and my cabin warm. We've got everything we need right here, wouldn't you say? Especially with our tiny terror on the way. Just like me… but probably even more bloodthirsty. What do you think, sweetheart? Ready to witness the glorious violence of our shared life?"
