Chapter 198 

Nyx thought it must have been that night when she got drunk. She panicked.

From what she knew, people trying to conceive had to avoid smoking and drinking to prevent any health issues in the baby. 

If she was really pregnant, she feared that the baby 

would have any congenital problems due to the alcohol. 

Seeing her lost and helpless expression, Theon and Erik pulled her into a comforting embrace. “Don’t be scared, Nyx.” 

Nyx was still young, only 20 years old. She probably hadn’t mentally prepared herself for having a child. Even though she had previously shown an interest in having a baby, wanting something and facing reality were two different things. 

Theon and Erik said, “If you don’t want to keep it, we will support whatever decision you make.” 

For Beastmen of their level, having a child was extremely rare, but Nyx’s feelings would always come first. 

The males didn’t hesitate. 

They had brought the most advanced medical pod with them, ensuring that there would be no harm to Nyx’s body. 

“What?” Nyx was startled and hurriedly covered her stomach. “I’m keeping it.” 

If she hadn’t wanted to give birth, she would have taken precautions from the start. 

Even if there was a possibility of congenital defects, she would still take responsibility for this child. 

Just as she made up her mind, there was a faint movement in her lower abdomen, as if the baby was responding to her, interacting with her. 

The moment she realized this wasn’t an illness but a little life, everything suddenly felt magical. Nyx’s eyes sparkled with excitement, and even her appetite improved. 

“Eat more of this–it’s good for your health,” Layla had someone specially prepare medicinal dishes suitable for pregnancy. 

The two males served her attentively, their every action filled with love and care for Nyx. 

Layla observed all this with great satisfaction. 

Initially, she had worried that these two rough–handed men might not take good care of Nyx, or that the arrival of a child might disrupt their stable relationship. 

But now, it seemed her worries were unnecessary. 

Finding two men willing to share a life with her was Nyx’s good fortune. 

As long as they were willing and she was happy, there was no need to care about societal judgment. 

Archie stole glances at Nyx, hesitating to speak. 

It wasn’t until she left the Cook family that Nyx received his message. 

Archie: [Dear sister, whose child is this?] 

He couldn’t hold back his curiosity and wanted to probe. 

Nyx fell silent, feeling conflicted.

She replied to Archie: [I don’t know.] 

She thought the child was probably neither Theon’s nor Erik’s. The father might still be in another world. 

That night, after she got drunk, she had indulged all her mates–any of them could be the father. Beastmen offspring were oviparous, encased in a soft shell within the mother’s body. 

• Female Beastmen would give birth after three months of pregnancy, and once the soft shell was exposed to the outside world, it would begin to harden, forming a protective cocoon for the offspring’s continued development. 

This eggshell had a unique composition, completely blocking any machine from detecting the embryo inside. Only when the baby hatched would she know who the father was. 

No matter whose child it was, she only wished for it to be healthy. Nyx sighed. 

As soon as she sighed, her two mates immediately tensed up, worried that she wasn’t feeling well. They hurried home to give her a check–up.

Since neither of them were professional doctors, Zayne had prepared a detailed user manual for the medical pod, including explanations for all the data–forming a long, thorough document. 

Theon and Erik carefully cross–checked the data against the examination results, verifying everything multiple times. They confirmed that Nyx was really pregnant. 

“Is the baby healthy?” Nyx studied their expressions, sensing that the results must be good. 

“Yes, it’s been a full month now. Everything is normal.” 

More importantly, Nyx’s body was in perfect condition. Despite having been stranded on Earth for a while, she hadn’t weakened. 

This reassurance brought some relief to the two males. 

Hearing that the egg embryo was normal, Nyx let out a deep breath. But the fact that they couldn’t yet determine the condition of the baby inside the eggshell still left her a bit uneasy. 

“Did I conceive this child that night when I was drunk?” she asked in a small voice. “Will it be unhealthy?” 

The two males were momentarily stunned. They exchanged glances, seeing confusion in each other’s eyes. 

“Why would you think that?” Theon took Nyx’s hand. “You should be able to feel it–it’s full of life.” 

Most egg embryos didn’t move this frequently, but the little one inside Nyx’s belly was not only highly energetic but also so lively that it was causing her some discomfort. 

Erik looked it up using the Intelligent Brain and vaguely guessed the source of Nyx’s concern. He reassured her, “Beastmen physiology is different from humans. Alcohol won’t affect the offspring.” 

Even for humans, as long as they weren’t chronic heavy drinkers before pregnancy, there usually wouldn’t be any major problems. 

“Really?” Nyx blinked. 

The weight on her heart finally lifted. No longer on edge, she sat down and gently touched her stomach. 

It was already a full month old. In just two more months, she would give birth. As for when the baby would hatch, she wa 

sure.

Chapter 198 

Most Beastmen offspring hatched between two to five months after birth, making it impossible to predict. 

“It was born on Earth. We need to be extra careful and protect it well.” Nyx looked at her two mates. 

Their offspring were different from Earthlings. They had to avoid outside scrutiny and ensure their secret remained hidden.
