Summary
Lup has always had trouble sleeping.
She can count on one hand the unbroken nights of sleep she’s had since the Hunger was defeated. It’s not that she’s too hot or too cold, it’s not that she can’t get comfortable, it’s not even the recurring nightmares of being locked away in a black curtained room - it’s a lingering anxiety from years of staying in undesirable places among even more undesirable people. There is no rest in hiding. Even nowadays, enveloped in her husband’s arms, stability still feels like a stranger.
Tonight, though, something else wakes her.

The arrival of Barry and Lup's impending child is - of course - going to be a rollercoaster from beginning to end.
