Chapter 175 All in the plans

“Doris! Lovely to see you again.” Enzo stood when she entered the tent. He looked deprived of sleep but the smile on his face was real. She always felt a soft spot of warmth when she saw him. It was nice to have a friend that deserved a part of her heart. She always missed him when he was gone.

“Enzo! I thought you weren’t returning for a few days.” Doris gave him her hand and he landed a big kiss on the back of it. She laughed when William grumbled from behind her. She swore he had a soft spot for Enzo. Anyone else would be shoved out the door for looking at her.

“I was concerned that you would miss me so I came straight back.” He grinned. “I finished my task faster than I thought. What I thought would take five days took less than one, Martin didn’t bring out the big guns as we expected.”

“Well, it’s lovely to have you back. This place is boring without your flare.”

“As expected. Though, it seems that won’t be for long. I also just heard you might have a new addition soon.” His eyes flickered to her stomach. She almost wanted to cover it before more people started to stare. Wasn’t it supposed to be a secret?

“Oh? And who would tell you such a thing?” Doris smiled. Enzo pulled out her chair and she sat around the large table that had piles of papers and open scrolls.

“Your annoying mate told me it. He also threatened me to stop flirting with you but I refused.” Enzo winked as he plopped down in the seat next to her. “He can’t stop me and I wouldn’t even consider it.”

“You won’t want to flirt in a few months.” Doris said and laid her hand on her flat stomach. She tried to imagine what it would be like to have a round stomach with a baby inside and swollen feet. The image it brought made her start to sweat.

“Nonsense, I’ll most likely flirt even more! If he lets me live, that is.” Enzo eyed William who was glaring right back at him. Doris hid her smile behind her hand. “There’s nothing more beautiful than a pregnant woman. You’ll be glowing more than usual soon enough.”
