Caged Between The Beta & Alpha
Chapter 116

MONICA

Channing and I had returned to mine, well it would soon be ours. His children and brother were as understanding of our relationship as my son was. It was just Anna who couldn’t stomach it. Yet, she was strictly not allowed on Blue Moon territory.

When she found out about Channing’s new position, she wanted him back. Disgusting. I hoped I didn’t have many run–ins with her, I was better off without it. She had cheated on Channing when he was an amazing, selfless man.

I will always love Aaron, and just the thought of him made my heart ache, but I was able to love Channing too. Perhaps it would never reach the level of love I had for Aaron, but it was enough. ” Want to visit his grave tomorrow? ”

He asked, pulling me onto the sofa next to him. He was always so understanding. Despite both his legs being destroyed in the battle of Hecate’s Betrayal years ago, he had not let it get to him.

This man was strong, brave, and always happy. He’d use crutches when needed or his wheelchair, but either way, he never let it get to him. I placed my hand on the top part of his leg, looked into his eyes, and nodded.

” Yeah, tomorrow I will. ” I rested my head on his shoulder. The pain in my chest was often bearable but then there were moments when it returned with strong force. ” Damon and Robyn, it would be amazing if they were going to be parents.

I would happily mind the child. ” He chuckled. ” Oh, I know you would. ” He said k!ssing my forehead. ” Do you think it’s going to be a boy or girl? ” Now that’s a tough one, I’d like to say girl, but maybe a boy? ” Oh, I’d love a girl, I always wanted a daughter.

I have Robyn though. ” I smiled, k!ssing his cheek softly. ” Thank you, Channing, for being you. ”

” He gave me a warm smile as I ran my fingers through his hair. ” And thank you for being so perfect.

” He claimed my lips with his and although I was far from perfect, for him to look at me with such adoration and love made me feel like I was worth something. I hugged him tightly. Thank you. ” ” Ok, you need to stop thanking me. ” He remarked, wrapping his strong arms around me and tickling me. I laughed, trying to get away before he stopped and pulled me in front of him.

” Moni … ” ” Yes? ” I asked, looking up at him. He looked serious and I saw the conflict in his eyes. Whatever it was, it was serious. ” If Anna ever moves on and marks someone … Would you allow me to mark you? ” He asked quietly. I looked at him sharply.

The rule of marking … Anna was alive so there was no way I could mark Channing, and he couldn’t mark me unless he was wearing my mark , or vice versa. Aaron was gone, so his mark could be removed by anyone bearing my mark, but Channing’s mark would only be removed if Anna moved on. I looked at him and smiled , nodding.

A few months ago I wouldn’t have been able to , but Aaron would always be a part of me, and as much as having his mark gone would hurt … It was something I know he’d want me to do. I had Damon, my Aaron’s son. ” Yes, I would. ”

I whispered, knowing it would also ease the ache in my chest. ” Now I just pray that she goes, replaces someone, and marks them. “

I laughed. ” Isn’t that wishing bad on someone else? That’s true … Maybe she’ll replace someone as awful as she is. ” He sighed heavily. Sometimes it gets draining to be tied to her despite the rejection. ” I know, but I’m sure she will replace someone and take a chosen mate. And I can’t wait for it.

” Me too. ” I whispered, placing my arms on top of his as I leaned on his shoulder, inhaling his warm, comforting scent. Everything was no longer so dark …

ROBYN

Damon had told Liam about my chance of being pregnant. The two men could keep nothing from one another. So now he and Raven were here. I was going to pee on a stick and there was an audience to see the results. I wanted to kick Damon’s as*s, but he was just too cute and excited for me to do that .

I stared at the stick that Raven had brought for me first thing in the morning. ” You should do one. ” I said suddenly as she giggled with excitement. ” Oh, I’m not pregnant.

” She waved me off. I raised an eyebrow. Well, I hadn’t seen her for like two weeks and I swear her stomach looked a little round … ” You might be. ” I shrugged, sighing as I unboxed the test, glaring at the two men.

The only good thing was they had brought an entire box of fresh donuts, pastries, and rolls. Oh, and hot drinks … ” Ok ! I’ll do this for fun. ” Raven decided, taking the second packet.

” Love, you’re on contraception, remember? ” Liam reminded her, raising an eyebrow. ” I’m doing this for moral support for Robyn. ” ” Raven replied, hands – on h**s as she stared at her mate. I smiled; Well, I guess it’s better than just one of us doing it. ” Want me to go first? ” I nodded,

” Yes, please. ” I could feel Damon’s eyes on me as both men sat there eating the sugary treats. Why did they still look so good even when they ate such high–calorie foods? Raven came out of the bathroom quite quickly, placing the stick flat on the paper towel I had placed ready on the cabinet.

” You got this. ” Damon said, coming over to me and k!ssing me softly. I nodded and took a deep breath, decided to go do mine. A few minutes later, it was time to take a look at my test.

I took a deep breath, ready to look at the results when my eyes fell on Ravens stick, one that everyone seemed to have forgotten about.

I smiled slightly at the two clear lines on the stick. ” What does it say … ” Damon said, coming over. My eyes snapped to my test and my heart skipped a beat. Pregnant. ” Umm, you might want to sit down. ” I replied solemnly. ” It’s not what you guys were expecting. ” ” Damon’s eyes softened and he smiled. ” It’s ok. ” He was about to come over but Raven was watching me with her eyes wide, and I knew she was trying to gauge my reaction.

” It sure is … Because soon the both of you are going to be on daddy duties. ” I said, holding up both sticks. Damon froze, his eyes flying wide open before he rushed towards me and lifted me off my feet, spinning me around as he laughed in excitement.

” Damn girl, I … F**k, I don’t even know what to say .. I smiled, locking my arms around his neck. ” You don’t need to say anything at all … ” I whispered before k!ssing him.

The excitement I felt inside was far too much to put into words. Oh, Goddess, we were going to be parents! I was so thrilled, I k!ssed him with everything I had as he rocked me from side to side, his heart pounding, and even as he k!ssed me that smile never left his lips.

” Goddess, I can’t wait to have a mini – you to hold. ” He whispered k!ssing me again. I smiled, hugging him tightly before I glanced at the other couple, who were both standing there staring at each other.

Liam looked stunned, and perhaps a little pale. ” Guys? ” I said, snapping them from their trance. ” I’m pregnant! Wow! ” Raven suddenly exclaimed blinking.

” Wow indeed, you were on your pills … ” A dazed Liam responded shell – shocked. ” Hmm … religiously … The doctor gave ” Raven murmured. them … ” ” Did you forget any?

” Damon asked. HE ” No … ” Yeah, she didn’t … ” ” Liam mused. ” I guess it didn’t work, since you are a Deimos prince. ” I replied thoughtfully.

Maybe just like a Lycan doesn’t need to mark someone to get them pregnant, perhaps similarly the c0ntraception wasn’t enough … ” Wait, what? ” Liam asked, shocked. He was a smart man, but a little clueless.

” Just an assumption, but it could be that the medicine wasn’t strong enough to stop your sp3rm. ” I said making Raven’s eyes widen as she nodded. ” That makes sense … ”

” Damon murmured as Liam ran his hand through his hair that had seconds earlier been styled to perfection. Oh, dear Alpha, you won’t have time to style that head of yours once your child comes along. ” Sh!t, I had a dream and there were kids all around …

” Liam shuddered as Raven walked over to him and cupped his face. ” We’ll be ok. ” He nodded, giving her a small nervous smile as he pulled her into his arms and k!ssed her forehead. ” Well, I think I’ll book us in for a scan . It’s best we know how far along we are. ” I remarked.

” Will have to be over at B***d Moon, our maternity unit is still not finished. ” Damon remarked. I nodded as Liam whistled. I glanced at him, thinking although his hearing wasn’t as good as the Lycan kings, surely , he must have noticed Raven’s tiny physique looking a little round around the stomach.

Then again Liam was a little clueless … I wonder if there’s two in there for her to be showing slightly …

RAVEN

The following day we were both at the hospital, Robyn had just had her scan and I was so nervous and excited all at once!

A little Liam! That was going to be so cute! Seeing Robyn’s little bean had been incredible. Watching Damon smile as he held her hand made my own heart melt. She deserved him, they were perfect together.

” Ok Luna, come. ” Doctor Jenson motioned for me. ” Ok! ” I gave Liam a quick k!ss, getting onto the bed once she had put a new paper sheet down. I tugged my top up and lowered my pants slightly. ” You got a belly. ” Damon remarked, making me stare at my tummy. Now that he mentioned it …

Liam frowned, tilting his head as he stared at my tummy. ” You may be further along than you think . Doctor Jenson replied with a smile as she applied the cold gel.

” Let’s see .. ” She began pressing around as I stared at the screen opposite. ” My … ” Doctor Jenson whispered in awe. ” Goddess … ” Robyn gasped, clamping her hand over her mouth as Liam looked at her sharply.

I stared at the doctor and then back at the screen where there was clearly a womb that did not look normal … It looked …. ” Doctor why does that look so … ” I began, my heart thudding. ” F**k … ” Damon whistled. ” Luna … Alpha as you can see, you aren’t having just one pup, congratulations you are having quintuplets! This is a miracle! “

She exclaimed, a huge smile on her face. My heart plummeted as I stared at the screen before me. Quintuplets …. ” Five pups, Alpha. ” She said, staring at Liam, who was frozen, his hand holding mine but he hadn’t reacted.

” Liam? ” I whispered, feeling far too stunned to wrap my head around it. He still didn’t reply, his face pale, his deep blue eyes wide as he stared ahead, completely still, far too shocked at the news that he was soon to be a father of five. And then, the next thing I knew, my six–foot–four handsome giant crashed to the floor . My Alpha had fainted.

Goddess.
