The Mysterious Luna
Chapter 81(The End)

Colton POV

I woke up early in the morning with my beautiful mate curled up against my chest. Hearing her light snores let me know that she was still sleeping. I laid still in bed so I wouldn’t wake her. She hadn’t been sleeping the best lately, so I definitely wanted her to get as much sleep as she could.

It’s been five months since we first found out Jess was pregnant. I’m surprised my hair hasn’t turned grey from how stressful it’s been. I know I’ve been a bit overbearing and protective, but I just can’t help it. It’s the Alpha in me that makes me act that way.

Jess’s belly has gotten huge. I still can’t believe she’s carrying two babies in there. The doctor told us at our last appointment that she could go into labour anytime now. Of course that news made me even more overbearing. I haven’t let her out of my sight since that appointment, except for when she’s using the bathroom. I tried to follow her in once and she told me off, I guess that’s where she drew the line. I just can’t help it, I like being in control and I feel helpless when it comes to the pregnancy. Other than rubbing her feet and bringing her whatever food she craves, there’s really nothing I can do to help.

She looks so uncomfortable now and barely sleeps. She’s also extremely emotional, which can be scary at times. One minute she’ll be laughing and the next crying. Then when I ask her if she’s ok, she lashes out in anger. I’ve learned not to take her mood swings personally and remind myself that it’s the hormones and lack of sleep.

I was brought out of my thoughts, when I felt my little mate stirring awake.

“Good morning.” She greeted in a raspy morning voice, while smiling up at me.

“Good morning. Did you sleep ok last night?” I asked.

“Not really. Your little pups were having a wrestling match all night. My ribs took quite the beating.” She chuckled

“Not much longer.” I reassured her and leaned down to k**s her forehead.

“Those spicy tacos I ate at midnight aren’t helping. I’ve got the worst heartburn of life.” She grumbled and it was my turn to laugh. I warned her not to eat them so late and she nearly ripped my head off for trying to stop her.

“I told you not to eat them.” I pointed out, causing her to growl at me.

“Don’t tell me what to do, devil man.” She joked and started to pull away from me.

“Where are you going?” I asked, while pulling her back into my chest.

“Ugh…One of your pups is sitting on my bladder and might actually pee my pants if you don’t let go.” She grumbled.

“s**t. Sorry.” I replied, while releasing my hold on her.

I watched her hobble her way to the bathroom and I had to stifle a laugh. She looked so cute even though I knew how uncomfortable she was.

“Don’t lock the door.” I said as she walked into the bathroom. She looked over her shoulder and rolled her eyes at me, before shutting the door. I knew I was being annoying, but what if something happened while she was in there? Sure I could break down the door, but her leaving it unlocked would just make everything so much simpler.

A few minutes later, the bathroom door opened and Jess hobbled over to the closet.

“Come back to bed. I just want to lay here with you a little longer.” I pleaded.

“As tempting as that is, I promised Sam that I would have breakfast with her. Plus I want some snuggles with Katrina.” Jess replied, while struggling to put on her leggings. The grunts and g****s coming from her mouth were pretty entertained.

Sam and Josh had their baby girl last week. They named her Katrina and she’s absolutely adorable. Jess and I chose not to replace out the gender of the twins before their birth. It’s killing me inside, I can’t wait to replace out if we’re having two boys or two girls. Honestly I’ll be happy either way, I just want them to be healthy.

“I’m coming with you.” I said before getting out of bed and making my way into the closet.

“No you’re not.” She replied with an irritated sigh.

“I am.” I argued, while giving her a stern look, silently warning her not to argue.

“Fine, but you’re going to wish you didn’t join us.” She said with a mischievous smirk. I couldn’t understand why she was smirking, but I brushed it off. I got my way, that’s all that matters.

We made it to the dinner hall and immediately spotted Sam sitting at a table holding Katrina in her arms.

“Go sit, I’ll go get you food.” I offered and watched Jess hurry over to the table excitedly. I smiled when she grabbed Katrina from Sam’s arms and started snuggling her. Jess is going to be a great mother. I thought to myself, as I made my way into the kitchen.

I filled a plate with everything I could think of. Jess has had some weird cravings and goddess knows what she’ll want today. I should of asked, but wasn’t thinking.

Once I was done filling up our plates, I made my way over to the table.

“How many stitches did you need?” I heard Jess ask Sam, causing me to frown. I didn’t know that Sam got hurt. I wonder what happened?

“Six and it was absolutely horrible.” Sam replied and scrunched her nose at the thought.

“Where did you need stitches?” I asked curiously, while taking a seat.

“My v****a. Remember, I pushed a pup out of it last week.” She snapped, with her eyebrows furrowed. My jaw dropped open and I knew the colour drained from my face. Why did I have to ask that question? I really could of lived my entire life not knowing that tidbit of information.

“You ok, Colton? You look a little pale.” Jess teased.

“I really regret asking that question.” I mumbled, while shaking my head. Both Jess and Sam bursted out laughing.

“That wasn’t even the worst part. The placenta was…” Sam started to explain, but I cut her off.

“Nope, can’t do this.” I said and abruptly stood up. I hadn’t even taken a bite of my food, but suddenly had no appetite.

“Where you going?” Jess asked innocently and I glared at her. Now I knew why she smirk earlier and said I would regret coming. I really did.

“I’ll be in my office. Come and replace me when you’re done here.” I replied sounding completely flustered.

“What’s wrong Alpha? You didn’t even touch your breakfast?” Sam asked with a knowing smirk. I ignored her and turned my attention to Jess.

“Mind-link me if something happens.” I grumbled, before walking away from the table.

I heard them laughing hysterically at my expense, but I just kept moving. I wanted nothing to do with that conversation.

I made my way to my office and took a seat behind my desk. I felt anxious not being around Jess. What if something happens and I’m not there?

I was trying to do work, but I couldn’t think straight. I had read the same sentence in an email five times and still had no clue what it said. I was just about to try reading it again, when there was a knock at the door.

“Come in” I said. The door opened and a smiling Josh walked in.

“Looking a little pale there, Alpha.” Josh stated with a knowing smirk.

“Your mate just scarred me for life.” I replied and he chuckled.

“Why do you think I missed breakfast? I saw everything first hand in the delivery room. Trust me when I say, it was way worse in person.” Josh said and shuddered at the thought.

“”Let’s not talk about it. I’m already stressed enough as it is.” I replied, while rubbing my hands over my face.

“How’s Jess feeling?” He asked and I was happy for the change of topic.

“She’s pretty uncomfortable, the warm weather really isn’t helping.” I replied.

“I bet. She’s so tiny, I still don’t know how you fit two pups in there.” He joked.

“Tell me about it.” I sighed.

“I remember how horny Sam was the last couple of weeks. She was an animal.” Josh chuckled.

“Ya, it’s impossible to satisfy Jess right now. We have s*x and she ends up mad at me for being to gentle. I really can’t win right now.” I said in a defeated tone. It’s completely true, her s*x drive has been through the roof, but when I refuse to f**k her hard, she gets frustrated. I can’t help it, I don’t want to hurt the babies.

“I hear ya man. I had the same fight with Sam.” Josh replied, while shaking his head.

We continued to chat, when all of a sudden my office door flew open. One of my warriors stood on the other side, looking panicked.

“What is it?” I asked.

“Luna’s in labour.” He blurted out.

I jumped out of my seat and started running towards the door.

“Where is she?” I barked.

“The hospital.” He replied.

I took off in a full sprint towards the hospital. My mind was a mess. I should of never left her alone, I knew this was going to happen the minute I wasn’t around her.

I reached the hospital in no time and found Sam pacing in the waiting room.

“Good, you’re here.” She breathed out.

“Where is she?“ I asked.

“Come with me, Alpha.” The nurse at the front desk instructed and immediately escorted me to the delivery room. I could hear Jess screaming in pain before I entered. It caused more panic to rush through me.

I swung the door opened and found my mate lying on a hospital bed, while Dr. Murphy examined her.

I quickly ran to her side and grabbed ahold of her hand.

“Thank goddess you’re here.” She said, while panting heavily.

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t of left you…” I said, but was cut off by her screaming.

A couple nurses ran into the room to help. I couldn’t believe how fast everything was happening.

“Ok Luna, I’m going to need you to push.” The doctor instructed and Jess squeezed my hand painfully hard, while pushing. I hated to see her in pain, I wish I could take it all away.

“I see a head. I need another big push, Luna.” The doctor once again instructed and Jess complied. She was breathing heavily and beads of sweat were rolling down her face.

“You’re doing amazing.” I encouraged, while brushing a strand of hair from her face.

All of a sudden, I heard crying and looked at the doctor who was now holding a baby in his hands. One of the nurses took the baby from him.

“Congratulations, it’s a boy.” The doctor announced.

I looked down at Jess, who had tears running down her cheeks. I knew they were happy tears. I can’t believe I have a son. I didn’t have much time to think about it, before the doctor spoke.

“You can’t rest yet, Luna. The other one is ready.” He stated and we repeated the same process.

I let out a relieve breath when I heard the second baby crying.

“Another healthy boy.” The doctor announced.

A nurse wrapped him up in a blanket before handing him to Jess. Another nurse brought our other son to me.

I looked down lovingly at the tiny little boy in my arms. I still couldn’t believe that I was a dad. The whole experience felt surreal.

“You’re incredible Jess. You did amazing.” I said, while leaning down and kissing her forehead.

“Aren’t they perfect?” She said softly.

“They are, just like their mama.” I replied and she smiled.

“What are we going to name them?” She asked thoughtfully. We had thrown names around, but decide to wait until they were born before making any decisions.

“I think the names you picked suit them the best, Dane and Dallas.” I answered and saw her smile.

“I love you, Dane.” She said to the baby in her arms and leaned down to k**s his forehead.

“And I love you, Dallas.” I said to the baby in my arms, before kissing him.

I’m the luckiest man in the world. I have a perfect mate and two healthy baby boys. What more could a man ask for? Nothing.
