Chapter 187: Chapter 187 Born of the Sun and Moon
Amber’s POV
"They can’t come now. They are not ready. I’m not ready! Doctor tell me they are not coming now!" I scream as Chase and Blaze help me into a hospital gown and on the bed. The contractions have only intensified over the course of the last few hours. I managed to speak, however briefly, in church, but then everyone insisted on getting me to bed. I agreed, but kept saying I properly just peed myself. It would be embarrassing, but I am not ready for these two to enter the world just yet. They have not finished baking.
"Your Grace, you are 4 cm dilated, and this is happening. It is not uncommon for multiples to come early, as I have already told you and you have already kept them there for four months." He looks me in the eyes. "A normal single pregnancy is already short as it is for both dragons and werewolves, and you have almost kept them to term - you are only short of a month out. They are ready, and frankly; they have no more space in there." Tears flowed down my cheeks.
"Chase, Blaze, please stay here." I beg, and they both just lean in to kiss me. I know they would never leave my side, but I just need to tell them.
"We’re not going anywhere, little moon, I promise." Blaze says, standing there still in his coronation attire. Both he and Chase had theirs when I was kidnapped, but they insisted on dressing all the way up anyway today.
"AAAAAAH! IT HURTS!" I scream. It feels like I’ve been here forever, and I can’t even have anything to drink or eat. They ordered ice chips, and only small amounts at a time.
"I know baby, I’m sorry." Chase says, using a cold cloth on my overheated face.
"I’m sorry I yelled." I apologize when the contraction gives me a break. I’ve been a mess of screaming, cursing and apologizing since we came to the hospital. I broke Blaze’s right hand, and it was so bad they had to give him a cast to keep it steady. I cried and apologized over and over again, and he kept saying it was all alright. Now Chase is the only one in here, as the nurse opted for Blaze to come to another room to get the cast. She has to touch him, and has had a bad experience with raging hormones and another female touching the mate. I agreed and apologized to her as well, even though I had done nothing to her - yet.
"Your Grace, how are we doing in here?" The doctor asks, walking in and putting on gloves. I growl at him, but he brushes me off with a small smile. "Let me take a look." He sits down, lifting up the linen over my legs. "Oh, we are progressing fast I see." He gets up, yells for something or other at the door, and sits down again. Soon nurses fill in, and Blaze runs in, hand in cast and stands by my side.
"Your Grace, on the next contraction you need to push!" He says, and I panic again. I need to push already? I’m not ready. What if I’m a bad mom? What if they don’t like me? I have no more time to think as the next contraction hits, and I push with everything I have. ƒreewebɳovel.com
"Good! This baby is crowning, and will be here soon. Come one, Your Grace, a big push!" Both Blaze and Chase keep encouraging me, telling me how brave I am. I push with all my might, and the doctor instructs me to breathe in small puffs. I do as he says, and then the room fills with screams, but they are tiny and sweet like music to my ears.
"It’s a boy, Your Grace. A healthy little boy." I look at Chase.
"GO!" I yell at him, and he walks to the table where they are drying my son.
Then the contractions start again, and fuck my life they are even worse this time.
"FUCK ME! You are NEVER allowed to put your dicks near me EVER again!" I scream to my mates, who just both look very apologetic. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"Alright, this baby is crowning as well. Come on, PUSH!" I push and push - breathe in puffs and push some more. After another lifetime of labor, the small screams of another baby sounds.
"She’s a girl, Your Grace. One of each." The doctor says, smiling and cooing at the little on his hands before giving her to another nurse. Blaze goes to the table before I can yell at him too.
They lay her down beside her brother, and then something amazing happens - over our son a bright sun appears, while a full moon soars over our daughter. They are born under the sun and moon, and I wonder what the future has in store for them?
As the babies are checked, and I am finished with the afterbirth and patched together again, the nurses place both children in my arms. Chase and Blaze sit on either side of me, looking down at their children. Our perfect babies. Now I have four perfect children. My life is full and I love every moment of it.
After a couple of hours our family comes to visit. Maze is announced as the godfather of the twins, and we tell them we are getting married in a month’s time.
"I’ll have to go back to my pack, but I will be here on your wedding day. Are they getting blessed the same day?" Maze asks, looking down on the little baby girl in his arms. He looks like he’s in love, and I know these babies will be looked after by fierce and protective people all around. Melody and Elina are looking at their baby brother in the arms of my mother, cooing at him. They are already perfect big sisters.
"Yes they are. Do you want to know their names?" I ask, while everyone nods. "Callum and Ashilia." I look at my mates who are smiling.
"The next will have to start with a B then." Blaze says, but pales with a look from me. "Or we’ll just settle with these two and be satisfied." He swallows while holding up his arms in surrender. Everyone else laughs.
