Would You Be Shocked If....
Mira:
Poor Thomas turns out not to be the father of Justine's child? Out of his own mouth in the beginning
of Peace talks, while not impossible, it is highly unlikely that he got her pregnant. Thomas says that White Court Vamps are for the most part sterile... Possible he is the exception because of who is mother was, but is it likely? He says they were using birth control.. Failure? Possible, but how likely added to the probable low sperm count for Thomas? Justine was lying about using it? Very likely, but at the same time if Thomas was right about himself, still an outside chance.
Did HWWBs/Nemesis arrange for the outside chance of Thomas getting pregnant happen? Very likely, Justine/HWWBs/Nemesis admitted as much. However not said, whether or not Thomas was the father. It would be much easier for Justine to be unfaithful and get pregnant by a guy with a probable normal sperm count, actually the most logical thing for her to do. Thomas wasn't going to demand a DNA test, he would just accept it and become worried to the point where he'd do anything to save her.
Finally, Harry's gut feeling that something was a bit off about Justine when he told her the news about Thomas in the beginning of Peace Talks.. Could it be that her reaction felt off because there was no connection between her child and Thomas, not just the plan.
Dina:
I would be shocked. Which does not mean it is impossible.
I think Justine just sabotaged her birth control and Thomas did the rest. We know he is powerful and has some magic talent, both things may have increased his chances. Perhaps the outsider made that chances better somehow (if you can cast an entropy a spell you probably can have a lucky spell too).
That said, my main reason to believe that is...wouldn't Thomas be able to feel a demon in Justine?

I don't know, I don't think he stated that he could. He may not have even tried, because of his shock at learning she was pregnant and his fear for her. The point is a possessed Justine wouldn't give a flip who the father was, as long as she got pregnant and she'd freely lie to Thomas about it.

For that matter, she could be lying about being pregnant.

Yeah, but I don't think she is, at least Harry didn't think so. He described that she had that "glow" about her aura that says she was. Unless of course, HWWBs could create an effective illusion of the glow.
