Kingdoms and Thorn Ficlet: Exception

Warnings: The usual for the 'verse - child abuse and exploitation, underage, violence and references to violence.

A/N: Written for the "secret child" square for my Trope Bingo card. Not quite as storyish as I was hoping and far more fanficcish, but ah well, it exists.

Summary: When she woke up nauseous and sick and went to fight and train anyway, when she stumbled off the mats to find a private corner with a trash can to lose all the food she hadn't eaten, when her body ached in strange places and she couldn't find a comfortable way to sleep—she hadn't known any better. She hadn't known she was pregnant, so she didn't tell Kilter.

Shift knew now. She still didn't tell him.
