    He shook his head, attempting to rationalize the situation. "It's impossible. A simple kiss can't impregnate her, right?" he muttered, his voice confused. What if Emily was right? He wondered.

She hasn't eaten anything since that cup of coffee this morning," she reasoned, her voice laced with practicality.As she spoke, Emily's tone shifted slightly, her frustration seeping into her words. "She was gone this morning before I could even call her for breakfast. And then she skipped lunch because she thought you were mad at her. She even wanted to go home. Now it's late in the afternoon.
