Chapter 85
Ending
Colt’s lips slide down my back leaving flutters of warm kisses. His hands caress my shivering skin, one up my hips and the other down my thighs. His hard member slides in and out slowly inside of me. He has been gentle the last couple of months.
I bend down further, resting my face on the edge of the mattress while I keep my legs grounded on the floor as Colt makes love to me. It is the most comfortable position for the size I am now. Only one more month to go for me to pop. I do miss our wild raw sex but it is too tiring for me right now and too hard.
Colt straightens up and puts a hand on my back as he speeds up just a little.
“There. Just like that.” I whisper.
I have been horny like crazy and he indulges me every time. Many times he doesn’t even finish, just does it for me.
“You like that?”
“Yeah. Don’t stop!”
“I won’t.”
He does as I say and continues at the same speed and rhythm until my body finally feels relief.
“Mh…feeling better?” He lets me go then turns and lies down on the bed.
“Yeah. Much better.”
He lies down with a smile and hugs me. “Cranky woman.”
I laugh and then groan. “I don’t want to be Alpha today.”
“Then don’t. Take a day off. I’ll handle it.”
“Thank you. I’ll just stay in all day and watch TV.”
“No, you won’t.”
I giggle. He knows me so well. It’s been a few months now since Warrick officially made me and Colt Alpha’s of the pack. Colt and I work together just great. Hardly we ever disagree. We are in tune and want the same for the pack. He is my best friend and I could not imagine being anyone else. It is like we were really made for each other which is weird cause we were not fated mates but it feels like we were meant to be. I love this man more than almost anything in this world. I touch my belly. Almost anything…
I did not know if I ever would start feeling that maternal instinct but after seeing my baby grow inside of me, how could I not? He is as much of my whole life as Colt is. He…my baby boy, Logan James. I really wish that James would approve, I am sure he would. After that horrible night, Oliver was sent to his family who told us they had been looking everywhere for him. The last I heard from them, they concluded their hunt and Oliver was killed. It wasn’t pretty either. Kaecy–Colt’s brother–surprisingly agreed to take over the Blood River Pack. After witnessing what Ezra did with the pack, he didn’t want something like that to happen again, and so he grew some balls and became the Alpha. He was the first of our official allies.
Most packs are still afraid of us but we are working on building strong alliances and no more unfair punishments in this pack. I make sure of that. I want everyone to be happy and live a good life. That is my goal for this pack. I open my eyes and see that Colt has already gotten ready.
“Did I fall asleep?”
He laughs. “Yes. I ran you a hot bath. Do you want breakfast in bed?” get up with a big smile. “No. I’ll go downstairs.”
He kisses me and then kisses my belly before he leaves.
“Remember, we have dinner tonight.” He says.
“Yes sir, I’ll be ready.” I blow him a kiss and head to take my relaxing bath. As I lie in the tub, I feel the small kicks on my belly. Smiling, I put my hand and feel him. He is itching to get out. He is so strong. He made it through so much. All that fighting back at that pit and the fight that came after. He is going to be so strong, just like me and Colt. After a nice bath, I head downstairs where I find Kanda and Serge. They act like newlyweds, feeding each other. If I didn’t think it was cute, I’d probably gag like Dash is doing behind their backs. I didn’t know that Serge had lost his mate a long time ago.
So naturally, after Kanda’s endless pursuit of him—the girl can be exhausting— he gave in. They are now mates and I am so happy for them. Victor and Garret also seemed relieved by this. I don’t think they are equipped to handle a strong woman like her but Serge is obviously up for the task.
I sit next to Dash who gives me his killer smile. “The walking pimple is ready to pop!”
“Eww! Why do you have to say it like that?!”
He laughs. “I don’t know. I don’t think before I speak.”
“Clearly.”
“How are you feeling?” He asks.
“I am feeling good today. Heavy.”
“Good, good. My godchild must grow strong.”
I roll my eyes. “That is not sticking. We werewolves don’t do godparents and all that.”
“Fine, fine, but I will be his uncle.”
“Obviously. You are like a brother to Colt.” His cheeks swell when his lips curve to a huge smile.
I can tell that made him feel good. But I am not lying. Colt thinks of him as a brother and he is Colt’s Beta. Since Colt and I are both Alphas of the pack, we figured that it would be interesting to each have our own betas. Mine is Kanda.
“Well, I’m glad you didn’t have creepy twins.” He says as he eats. “That would have been a nightmare. How are those two doing by the way?”
Miles and Bryn went back to their pack once Kaecy took over.
“Colt says they are doing good. Shit-” I hiss at the painful kick Logan just gave me. I cross my legs feeling like I am going to pee myself. That was definitely my bladder. Suddenly, Dash gets up and freaks out. “Oh GOD! Are you okay? Are you having the baby!”
“No.”
“Are you sure!?”
I start laughing seeing the panic on his face. His face turns red and he sits back down as everyone else around the table also laughs.
“Dash, you are so cute. I can’t wait to see you when you find your mate.”
I don’t think he could turn any more red but he does. If the lights would be turned off right now, he would glow. I pat his shoulder and laugh all the way out of the dining room. I walk outside to a beautiful day. The sun shines bright, the birds sing beautiful melodies, the flowers bloom their brightest and butterflies are everywhere. I don’t think I have ever been this happy to be alive…I don’t think I have ever been this happy.
“Ouch!” I hold my belly. He kicked me again. I never knew it would be this painful to get kicked by a tiny little thing inside of me. Thankfully it wasn’t my bladder this time.
I spot Dad in the distance with Lotus and Poppy. Just where the reforming camp used to stand now there is a small golf area in its place where they all tend to spend their time.
“Don’t you get bored of losing?” I ask Father as I walk up to them.
“When I had this built, I didn’t know that Poppy would be so good at it.” He says.
He looks just as before all his injuries. He is not one hundred percent well yet but he is much better. Almost looks good as new. He stands strong, fights well, and still has that Alpha presence. I am glad he is returning to himself again.
“My dear, maybe you should be sitting. That belly is looking low.” Lotus says.
Taking a deep breath and putting my hand on my lower back, I nod.
“He has been kicking like crazy today.” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Lotus moves a chair closer to me.
“Mh, have the doctor see you. He said the baby was going to be big so he might just want to come out sooner.”
I nod. “I’ll do that.”
“Have you had any pain? Any discomfort?” Poppy asks.
“No, but I have been feeling constipated, to be honest.”
“Wow, too much detail.” Dad says, hitting the ball that misses the hole which is just inches away.
“It’s just poop, Dad, and you are bad at this game. Why do you even like it?”
“You can like something and not be good at it!”
“Fine, fine.”
I spend my whole morning with them basking in the beautiful weather. It is peaceful. In the afternoon I go see the doctor with Colt by my side. The doctor tells me that everything is good and to just rest. I do exactly that until it’s time for my dinner with Colt. I am already getting ready when he arrives to also get ready.
“Do you like this?” I show off my dress. It is a long white satin dress, flowy and soft.
“Love it!”
“Good answer.”
When we are done, we head downstairs where he leads me outside to the garden.
“Aww, this is gorgeous.”
There are flowers scattered all over the ground and table.
“And I did it myself.” He says looking proud.
“Well, I love it. You did good.”
He leads me to the table where he pulls out the chair for me to sit.
He sits in front of me but the table is small so he can easily reach out to me and touch me.
“I really wanted to take you out to dinner.” He says.
“I know but it’s just that I have not been feeling well lately. I would rather stay close to home.”
He nods. “It’s okay. Anything you want. Once the baby is here, we can go if you want.”
“Yes. I’d love that.”
“And how is my little man doing?” He puts a hand on my stomach.
“Kicking up a storm all day.”
He laughs and then looks at my dress again. “You really do look beautiful.”
“I do?”
He nods.
“Beautiful enough to eat?” I ask.
He laughs. “Is that what you are craving?”
“Maybe.”
“Well then, I guess it’s time I had my appetizer.” He mischievously smiles while he starts to slide down.
“What can I get you my lady?” Dash suddenly stands next to us in a black suit. He has a little notepad in his hand. I laugh. Colt probably put him up to this.
“Come back in twenty minutes. I am having a meal right now.” Colt says slipping under the tablecloth.
Dash immediately turns around and sprints away muttering. “Why the fuck did I agree to this shit?!”
I laugh hard until I feel Colt’s hand travel up my leg, softly caressing, bringing tingles to my body. This man spoils me and gives me whatever I want and crave. He lifts one of my legs up and puts it over his shoulder while he pushes my other leg apart. Soon I am feeling the blissful sensations of his tongue on my opening.
“Uh…oh that feels so good.” I moan.
He gives a moaning grunt that vibrates through my core. I close my eyes and lean my head back letting bliss take me. His tongue dances around and his lips at times kiss and take my intimate lips in his, sucking. He told Dash to give us twenty minutes but it only takes five minutes for me to see stars. My hands shake trying to grab at his hair but my belly gets in the way so instead he intertwines his finger with mine as I ride this wonderful feeling down with a moan. I take deep breaths as he comes out of the covers of the table with a big smile. I smile too and am about to kiss him. When his lips are almost on mine, I lean back and stare at him.
“What?” He asks, confused at my sudden pause.
“…OOOOOWWWW!” My stomach suddenly hurts. It feels like someone took my abdomen and twisted it till it couldn’t twist anymore. I put my hands around my belly and it feels so hard to the touch.
“What is it?!” He panics.
“I…I don’t know.” I now feel my body relax. “It’s gone now.”
He looks at me like he is confused, scared, and doesn’t know what to do or say.
“Is…is the baby coming?” He asks.
I stare at him for a few long seconds. “I think it is.”
I swear that I arrived at the doctor in a blink of an eye. The man lifted me up and ran to the pack clinic only to be told that they were early contractions so no need to rush. Colt is still panicking, even four hours in. Besides Colt, Lotus and Poppy are here with me helping me through it all.
Twelve hours in it is excruciating. I don’t understand how so many women can have more than one birth, it is the most painful thing I have ever experienced in my life and I haven’t given birth yet. These are just the contractions.
Thirteen hours now and I am finally there. I am screaming and pushing. I want to curse at everyone here who are giving me mixed signals.
“Push! Breath! Hold it!” Make up your damn mind! I can’t do it all at the same time!
Then Colt is holding my hand but he doesn’t seem to realize how much strength he is using. You’d think it would be the other way around. I have never seen him so pale before either but he is holding in there. Lotus and Poppy however are smiling and cheering, looking at my vagina. I just want to punch the smile off of their faces even though all I can do is breathe and scream.
Finally, there is a sudden cry that takes my breath away. It is the most beautiful sound I have ever heard and I start crying. I lift my hands up urging them to give me my baby and they immediately do. He lies naked on my bare chest. The most beautiful thing I have ever seen in my entire life and now I know. Now I know why women are willing to go through this. This feeling right here…I’d do it all over again for him. The moment he touches my skin he stops crying and opens his green eyes. I touch his tiny little hand and he immediately clings to my finger.
Lauren…look at my son. Look at how beautiful he is. I can almost feel her as if she was next to me. I can see her in my head smiling and telling me how proud she is with James by her side. Colt wraps his arms around both of us, engulfing us in a hug. I have never felt so much love as I do now.
