The Alpha Twins Rejection

Being pregnant was a magical feeling, something I sincerely wished I had experienced sooner. Not that I would consider changing a thing in my life, having to wait longer for my mates was a blessing in disguise. It made me appreciate them even more and be thankful for the bonds we had forged.

When Xavier and Xander came along my world had felt complete and by the time my second heat hit me in full force I was more than ready to expand our beautiful family. And so was Zac. Understandably so. While he absolutely adored the boys and considered them his own, I could tell that he was longing to be a father himself and we didn't waste any time trying. As forewarned, he was smug about having me to myself for this heat and teased the twins relentlessly. To my considerable surprise though the twins were great about it and even gave Zac helpful tips on how to handle my apparently insatiable urges throughout my heat, which had me scolding them. Argh, men.

Even thought they could be insufferable at times I honestly did not know how I got this lucky. Kane and Rayne were brilliant fathers and it made me proud to watch how careful and doting they were with the pups. So was Zac. He loved the boys fiercely and if anyone asked, he proudly stated he was their father which had my heart melting into a giant puddle at his words. It also made the bond between him and the twins rock solid. With our family expanding I was thankful for our mothers being in the packhouse now more than ever. Having twelve-month-old boys with endless energy running around while I could only waddle wasn't always easy. Not that I minded. The boys were our world. The centre of our universe.

Xavier and Xander took after their fathers with jet black hair and gorgeous, big brown eyes. There was no doubt in our mind that they were both alpha males either. They were taller and stronger than most pups their age, something Rayne, Kane and Zac were super proud of.

One thing that the four of us were certainly not ready for was the mind link connection with the boys. They had started talking much earlier than other pups and when they wanted something they didn't hesitate to fill our heads with their incessant babble. Thankfully I was assured by my parents, more than once as I needed the reassurance, several times that as the boys got older they would learn to use the bond between us more wisely. As much as I loved them, it was hard to fall asleep when I was heavily pregnant and had two small voices in my head talking over the top of each other until they drifted off to sleep. Some nights I would block them out and let Rayne, Kane and Zac deal with them just so I could maintain a little bit of my sanity. Other times I would listen in with a huge smile on my face while Zac told them bedtime stories until their soft snores could be heard coming from the room beside ours.

I don't know how humans did it, having only baby monitors to listen for their children during the night. I was thankful for our super hearing, sight and smell. And even more thankful that my children had so many fierce protectors and teachers all under the same roof. I slept much easier with that knowledge.

Sitting up in bed with a start one night, close to my due date, I feel a wet patch gradually spread beneath me. "What's wrong Ash?" Kane whispers from beside me, carefully keeping his voice low so that he doesn't wake Rayne and Zac. They had come in late from patrol and had fallen into bed dog tired only an hour ago. Looking at them I didn't think I would ever tire of falling asleep curled up beside my three mates. It made my heart happy, as well as my lady bits. They were all more than attentive lovers and I was grateful that they no longer had a problem with sharing a bed together.

"I think my waters just broke," I reply promptly, my voice slightly higher as a small contraction hits. In the early morning light, I can see Kane's eyes widen in horror. He sits up so quickly that he accidently falls out of bed, hitting the floor with a loud thump. I can't help myself, tears of laughter stream down my face at the sight of him so flustered. He jumps up with a huge, dopey grin on his face. "What the fuck Kane. Some of us are trying to sleep" Rayne grumbles from the other side of me. "Ash is in labour" Kane yells back in excitement."What did you just say" Rayne says, suddenly fully awake. Rolling away from me Rayne grabs Zac excitedly and shakes him like a doll. "Wake up Zac," he shouts, shaking poor Zac harder. "Wake up bro. Ash is in labour," Rayne says repeating his twins words.

Poor Zac is as startled as Kane was and copies suit, falling out of bed in a hilarious tangle of sheets. "You're what" Zac squeaks looking adorably flustered."Somebody call the pack doctor and get them over here straight away," he continues, going into panic mode. "Calm down Zac. The contractions are still steady yet," I say trying to sooth him. The poor guy looks like he is going to pass out at any second. "Come and sit down before you faint Zac," I tease him. He lets out a loud, audible sigh and comes and re-joins me back on the bed.

"Ash has got this," Rayne says to Zac, trying to calm him down. It was so adorable to see how protective my mates were of each other and how they all lent each other strength and comfort in times of need. Kane sits down on the other side of me and rubs my back soothingly while the contractions start to intensify. As intense pain rips through me I can't help but scream at the guys "I swear if any of you think of touching me on my next heat I will rip your heads off," I wail. All three have the grace to at least not laugh at my ridiculousness. As much as I loved children and how well my pregnancies progressed, labour still kicked my ass. It made me feel like I was being painfully torn in half. Once again though, I was so thankful for being a werewolf, knowing that my body would work hard to heal itself after giving birth definitely was a perk. It allowed me more time to bond with my pups instead of being bedridden too.

Even though my body was covered in battle scars along with silver lines that criss-crossed my skin from the torture Alpha Dante had unleashed on me, none of that compared to the horrific pain birthing children brought. The best antidote for the pain was the second my babies were placed in my arms and it was no different when two and a half hours later the pack nurse handed me my daughter. For a second there I really thought Zac was going to pass out as he watched me go through labour with a grimace on his face but as soon as our daughter was delivered tears started to steam down his face. "You did it Ash," he whispers into my ear, smilimg fondly at our daughter.

The twins are on the other side of me grinning just as wide at the beautiful, blued eyed, blonde haired baby cradled in my arms. "Lucky she has three dads" Rayne says as he gently strokes her cheek."Why's that I ask" confused at his words. "Because she is the prettiest baby girl, I have ever seen" he beams broadly at me. I had to agree. Looking at Zac with a affectionate smile, I ask "Well, have you thought of a name for her yet." "Do you trust him with something as important as that" Rayne snickers while winking at me. I loved how my mates got along and could joke with each other. "I have thought of a name actually. What do you think of Victoria," Zac asks shyly? "It is beautiful" Rayne and Kane say in unison. And I must agree, it really is a beautiful name. Looking down at her serene face, I try the name out "Victoria, you are so beautiful. Mummy loves you," I whisper. "It is perfect" I reply, making Zacs face morph into a huge grin when I support his name choice. "I love you all" I sob, suddenly overwhelmed with emotion.

Xander and Xavier dote on their baby sister and as they grow they become fiercely protective of her. By the time they are in their teens Victoria starts to train hard, following in my foot steps to become a Beta of Bloodmoon which makes her fathers and I proud as punch considering the sheer size of our pack now. Xander and Xavier become strong young men who also train hard as they will become Alphas of the pack when Rayne and Kane retire. Watching those two torment their baby sister any time a male shows her any attention makes me feel sorry for her while my mates high five them for making their job easier. "It's not fair" Victoria huffs "Every other she wolf is allowed to date but as soon as anyone shows any real interest in me Xander and Xavier scare them away," she continues with an adorable pout. "Just be glad it is them and not us" Kane replies with a laugh."That's not fair" Victoria replies. "We aren't the only reason why they are scared Victoria. If you laid off training you wouldn't have more muscle definition than most of the males" Xander snickers, making his sister's face go red with fury. I'm not going to lie; I was super impressed with how serious Victoria took her training. "Don't mind them boneheads' sweetheart. Concentrate on becoming their Beta and when the time is right you will find your mate. No need to rush into a relationship," Zac says soothingly. "Your right dad, I will leave the sowing of wild oats to those two," She replies with a smairk. Those boys positively were their fathers sons I thought with a sigh. The sooner they found their fated mates the sooner I would be able to control my stress levels.

The dynamics between the kids sometimes made me envious of the close relationship they share as siblings and I can't help but wish that I had had that as a child but then I remember I had Zac by my side and it makes me realise I always had him and always would. I was the luckiest she wolf in the world, and I wouldn't change a thing.

Taling every opportunity possible, I couldn't help but show my mates just how much they meant to me. Over the years they had proved to not only be the best Alphas to our pack but also the most loving mates and wonderful fathers to our children. Our bond was unbreakable and there wasn't anything I wouldn't do for them and I knew without a shadow of a doubt they felt the same way about me, they proved that every single day.

We had rapidly become the most powerful pack the world had ever seen and I was certain that our children were more than capable to take over from us when the time came. To say I was so proud of them and how dedicated they were about training and learning the ins and outs of werewolf history and law was an understatement. The only thing I feared was the target that we were transferring to their backs with the power. We would be ready for any threats headed our way though. I would make sure of it.
