Quick question for you, mate! Before I get into that, though, great work, the game continues to impress. I love continued lean in to kinks that don't get a lot of play. The writing continues to be top-notch.
So, question time: Will nixing the pregnancy path be a detriment to your relationship with Bella down the line? I ask for a simple reason. I'm childfree and committed to staying that way. My ex-wife thought she could change that and it led to... well, it didn't end well. I've spent the last 5 years dealing with the aftermath and the fallout, and a large part of that has been the somewhat barren dating prospects for childfree folks (not that I have any dislike towards folks who want/have kids, they're just not for me). Part of that is being cognizant and avoiding folks who are unsure because I don't want a repeat of my marriage. Pair that up with still being a romantic (not philosophically, just emotionally)... and yeah, Bella ticked all those boxes on the romance path... but the "she wants kids but she might be OK with not" kind of threw a curveball at me, and not asking for spoilers or anything... but is she going to be happy with no kids with the MC at the end of this (whenever that is)?
