Flipping her around on her back, he kept her pelvis elevated while he folded her legs against her chest. He spread her lips and pushed his fingers deep inside her, pulling them out to inspect the sticky fluid. Satisfied that his seed was inside of her, he began binding her legs against her stomach with a soft white strap before wrapping her up in the sheets. The familiar feeling of his swaddling calmed her while he settled in beside her for rest. It was later in the day than usual, so he would have to use her again soon.

After two straight weeks of what seemed like non-stop fucking, the doctor told Adam that Leah had surely ovulated and they would now just have to wait and see. He demanded that she remain in bed and kept her strapped up with her pelvis elevated for three straight days after he fucked her for the last time. Insisting that she didn’t move, he fed her by hand and stayed by her side the entire time, both to keep her company and to be sure that she obeyed. When he finally released her, he attacked her body keeping her in bed all day while he orally pleasured her and suckled her breasts, but never fucking her. He wouldn’t risk it until he was sure it wouldn’t affect the baby.

He seemed confident that he was successful and Leah was relieved to have a break. To her surprise, she was actually excited and hopeful that she would be pregnant. Although he assured her that if she wasn’t they would try again, she kept having nightmares that the test would come back negative and he would send her away. The days leading up to the test were filled with anxiety for both of them. In a way though, it was nice because they passed the time actually getting to know each other a little better. Adam was less demanding and more pleasant to be around.

She was still on bed rest at his command, but he did move her from place to place at her request. He even carried her along the bird trail in the morning because she seemed so sad that she wasn’t allowed to go. She spent most of her time on the balcony lying in the bed he’d had brought outside for her. He was so attentive, albeit in a paranoid and controlling way, that her attachment to him was deepening. The fact that he’d abducted and bred her seemed only mildly unusual. She’d gotten so much in return.

The night before the test, Adam promised her that everything would be fine no matter what the results were. Still, she couldn’t sleep and spent most of the night lying there anxiously. She was so happy to be here and hadn’t even been allowed to explore the forest that called to her endlessly. Everything she ever wanted was right in front of her; love, children, adventure, security. If it didn’t work out, she didn’t know if she could go back to the way she was living before.

The next morning, they hurried to the doctor’s cabana so she could take the test. The doctor assured Adam that this was the earliest possible day to test and it may come back negative even if she is pregnant. Leah fidgeted anxiously as the doctor took her blood and then went into the back room to analyze it. Sitting in a chair next to the examination table, Adam stared across the room blankly, making Leah even more nervous. When the doctor reappeared, she had a big smile on her face and Adam got rose out of the chair abruptly. It was confirmed, Leah was indeed pregnant with his child. She clutched her belly and looked up at him with a grin. He thanked the doctor and scooped her up in his arms, carrying her back to the house.

When they got back to their bedroom, he laid Leah out on the bed and climbed beside her, looking at her like he never had before. The sense of urgency and anticipation had left his eyes and he looked calm. He started kissing her belly tenderly as she ran her fingers through his dark hair as she finally took a breath and relaxed her body for what seemed the first time since she’d been taken from the city. He rose up and kissed her, but it was different this time. It was like there was another layer to the kiss that she hadn’t noticed was missing before. It wasn’t forceful or desperate like it often was and for the first time she kissed him back and he let her. They laid like that for a while, lips locked as he embraced her and gently stroked her stomach. When he broke away to get up, she pulled him back and fell on top of her, melting together until time seemed to stop.

He got up from the bed and she reached for him, his smile assuring her that he’d only be gone for a moment. When he returned she realized that there really was something different about him, but she couldn’t put her finger on it. Holding a small box, he climbed back into bed and tucked her under his arm.

“I got something for you,” he said, and Leah noticed that even his voice wasn’t the same. “To mark the occasion.” He opened the box to reveal a beautiful ring with an incredibly large, clear aquamarine of brightest turquoise blue. The golden circle had detailed scrolling all around it and he took it out and slipped it on her finger. Leah gasped at the size of it as her eyes studied the incredible stone. It was her favorite gem because it was her birthstone and if everything went well, it would be the baby’s too. This specimen was fit for a queen or belonged in a museum, by far the most beautiful she’d ever seen.

“Its beautiful!” she exclaimed, flabbergasted at the gesture. He had put in on her left ring finger and she wondered if that was significant, but was afraid to ask him. “I don’t know what to say. Thank you.” He smiled back at her, saying nothing, but the look in his eyes made her wonder what he was thinking. It was as if he was looking at her for the first time, almost with reverence or admiration, and she knew that things wouldn’t be the same between them now that she was carrying his child. It would be better.

Over the next few weeks, he did indeed start treating her differently. It was nice to feel like she was actually getting to know him. He was very attentive and gave her everything she wanted. The doctor had convinced him that a lack of exercise would be detrimental to the pregnancy and he reluctantly allowed Leah to start resuming a normal level of activity. They both shared a passion for nature and began hiking together, hiring a crew of workers to come it and cut trails through the forest so that would be easy to walk. He’d only let her walk for a few miles a day, and she wasn’t allowed to walk up any hills, so he carried her whenever he deemed the terrain was too steep.

They spent a lot of time lounging on the boulder near the waterfall. It was a special place for them, but he still wouldn’t have sex with her. He always insisted she be naked when they lay together there and he spent hours exploring her breasts and suckling her nipples. Because he refused to fuck her, he made her pleasure him with her mouth when the groping got him to excited. He always returned the favor. Afterwards, they would cuddle together on the large rock and talk about the future. What they thought the baby would be like, what he wanted to name it, how long they should wait until they started trying for another one, and how many children should there be.

As they discussed things, he kept reminding her that the final decision would be his, yet he seemed to genuinely concerned with what she wanted. It was frustrating for her that he didn’t quite see her as an equal. It was thrilling in bedroom, but she wanted to have a real relationship and didn’t see how that could happen if she didn’t have a true input on the decisions. She pushed those thoughts away for now and had faith that after the baby came, he would become less controlling. Luckily for her, they wanted almost the same things when it came to family size and timing, so it wasn’t much of an issue.

He was extremely attentive about her condition and asked her how she felt constantly. If she was sick, it seemed to torture him and he wouldn’t leave her side. Fortunately, her morning sickness quickly passed and the doctor assured him she was having a particularly easy pregnancy so far. Still, his concern for her was suffocating. She’d taken several more tests to confirm that she was indeed carrying his baby. The doctor refused when he insisted that she have an ultrasound earlier than recommended, saying that nothing would show up and it would only cause him more anxiety. He flew into a rage that terrified Leah and she tearfully begged him not to send the doctor away because she felt so comfortable with her. Reluctantly, he agreed to wait and seemed remorseful after he’d calmed down for causing her unnecessary stress.
