Draco laid a hand over his rounded belly, watching Harry go through the same procedure he’d recently gone through. He was having a boy, not surprisingly, and now it was Harry’s turn to find out the sex of his firstborn.

The midwife carefully surrounded the foetus with her magic and drew the image of it out to hover above Harry’s abdomen. She smiled. “It looks like you’re having a little girl. She’s active.” She said in amusement as the image kicked out and rolled over.

Lucius chuckled. “She’s a show-off. Pure Malfoy. Thank you, healer Tomoy.” He said.

The healer shook her head, dispelling the image. “I’ve told you before, Lucius, it’s Pamela. No need for formalities now that I’ve seen your sub in various states of undress. We all need to become comfortable with each other if the delivery is to go off without a hitch. Creature births can be tricky unless there is trust established beforehand.”

Severus snorted. “I’m still not sure my inner Faurae will allow you to be in the room with my labouring sub. I’m so overprotective of him already.” He mused, wrapping an arm around Draco and pulling the blond in close to his side.

Draco preened at the move, overjoyed that Severus was being openly affectionate in front of his father and stepfather for once.

Harry shrugged, sitting up. “Either way, we’ll need a healer. It’s not a good idea to go it alone.”

“I’m sure instinct will kick in once we go into labour and the rest will come naturally.” Draco told him. “That’s how it is for most creatures. Why should we be any different?”

“I’d be more comfortable with a trained midwife there with me.” Harry said.

Lucius smiled. “And you’ll have one.” He assured the brunet. “You’ll have whatever you want.”

“Right now, I want to relax in the pool. Draco, fancy a swim?”

Draco perked up. “Sure, sounds great!”

Severus smiled at him. “I will sit with Lucius while you two have your fun. Don’t get too exuberant. Remember you have a baby in your belly to worry about now.” He warned.

“We’ll be sufficiently careful, Sev. Promise.” Draco told him before rising onto tiptoe to brush a kiss against his cheek. “See you later.”

Harry got up and kissed Lucius, then followed Draco out of the room.
