“No, alpha Baby C is over here, you’re having triplets and you are about five weeks along” She says, and I am gobsmacked three, three babies swimming around in my womb. Damien scratches his head shocked and I hear Callie laugh at our shock, Tabitha burst out laughing at my horrified face. Layla purring excitedly in my head.
Before Damien jumps excitedly, “You’re not worried that there are three?” I ask, shocked that he was so excited while I was horrified at the thought of becoming the size of a house.
“Nope, I have super sperm” He says victoriously. Like he just won some award for getting off and impregnating me with not one but three babies. I didn’t know if I wanted to cheer or cry at the information.
“Want to know the sex?” Rebecca asks, looking to us.
“You can tell this early?”
“Werewolf pregnancies progress in half the time of human pregnancies Luna and you’re a hybrid which makes it even quicker, you know this” Rebecca answers.
“I want to know,” Damien says gazing at the screen. She zooms in and you could just make out their little arms and legs, they kind of reminded me of jellybeans with stumpy little arms and legs after a few minutes she answers.
“Baby A is a boy; Baby B is a boy and Baby C is a girl” Rebecca says beaming at us.
I could feel Damien’s excitement hitting me through the bond as he jumped up and down like an oversized man child excitedly.
“We are having pups” He announced so loud I was sure the entire town heard.
Chapter 52 Epilogue
Lana POV
10 years later
Today was our sixteenth birthday and of all the days my Brother Alpha Ryker had to call an Alpha meeting on his twin sister’s birthday. To say we were pissed off was an understatement. Arial and I watched from the upstairs window as Alpha’s from all over filed out of their cars before being greeted by our father and Ryker. My twin sister Arial hated the meetings just as much as me. It was one thing being twins, it was another being Lycan hybrid twins, and we always found that we copped the most stares. Once we came of age and didn’t get our wolves or shift, we knew we differed from our brother. Our mother was a direct descendant of the moon goddess, therefore, so were we.
Our brother inherited most of our father’s traits, he shifted when he was twelve and was what we call an early bloomer, but he didn’t share my mother’s Hybrid gene. Yes, he was a direct descendant like us, but for some reason he only received certain traits while my sister and I were exactly like our mother. We had no wolves and were half vampire and half Lycan. We were both saddened when we didn't get our wolves.
Ryker always spoke of how much he loved his wolf growing up. But we still had each other. Being twins means you always have another half, a best friend for life, and my sister and I were incredibly close. So, close my mother sometimes had trouble telling us apart, the only giveaway being our scents were different slightly and our personalities.
One by one, the Alpha’s filed out of their cars. Noticing my aunty Lily’s car pull up, I called Arial.
“Aunty Lil is here” I tell her, and she comes racing over to peer out the window. We watched as she and my uncle pulled the triplets from the car. They were ten now and had grown so much. We hadn’t seen them in a year because everyone had been busy.
Arial and I raced each other down the stairs to greet them, only to be grabbed by our brother as we went to race past. Ryker was fast as he gripped both our arms, tugging us beside him.
“Girls settle down” He scolded, giving us a pointed look. Ryker was the spitting image of our father and sometimes when he scolded us it was actually like our father did. Standing beside him, I cross my arms over my chest, giving him a defiant look. Aunty Lily and Uncle Damien walking in. Our nephews Abel, Asher, and our niece Amelia walk in beside them till they notice both of us and rush over. Lily goes straight to my brother, giving him a hug before kissing both Arial and I and wishing us happy birthday. Damien was greeting the other Alpha’s before they walked off down the foyer to the conference room with my father and mother.
“Lana, Arial, can you take the kids to play out back?” Lily asks us and we both nod. Taking the kids outside, they rush over to the swing set, Arial following close behind them. We push them on the swings for a bit when Amelia asks to retrieve something from the car.
“I can go get it, what do you need?”
“My book, I left it on the backseat” Amelia tells me, and I nod before walking back through the pack house heading for the front door. Going to Uncle Damien’s mustang I open the back door and see Amelia’s book sitting in the door trim. Bending over, I grab it just as another car pulls up.
Closing the door, I go to walk back inside when I hear car doors open, making me look back at the black SUV. A man around my brother’s age steps out and I instantly recognise him as the Forest Pack Alpha. Their pack was north of ours and around two hours away. He must have taken over his father’s pack because this was the first time I had seen him. The only reason I recognised him was because he looks a lot like his father, plus the woodsy scent that all the forest Pack had. Only his was sweeter, mouth-wateringly so. He smelt so good I wanted to take a bite out of him to see if he tasted as good as he smelt.
I mind link my brother.
“The Forest Pack Alpha is here”
“Tell Alpha Jed to come in” He replies.
“It’s not Jed, I think it’s his son” I tell him.
“I will be right there,” He replies. About to turn around when the wind shifts, and I hear a growl behind me. Ignoring the new Alpha, I continue up the stairs, about to head inside when I hear the one word I have dreaded all my life.
“Mate” He growls, making me spin around to find he was directly behind me, his hand gripping my arm as he tugs me against him.
