The Mystical White Wolf

Three Weeks Later: December 15th

Monica POV

"Ouch. You two knock it off," I rubbed my belly as the pups started their sibling fighting by kicking my ribs and bladder.

Christmas was fast approaching, and their Father was out doing training sessions with Antonio and Liam. I didn't think I could get any bigger. Dr. Scott wanted to put me on bed rest for the remainder of my pregnancy because my stress level was a little high the past few weeks.

I would imagine it would be if a psycho vampire and a narcist Alpha were planning on kidnapping your Luna and best friend. I was folding the pup's clothes and cleaning the nursery. I felt a slight pain shoot up my spine and bent over, gasping.

"What the hell," I thought and rubbed my belly.

The twins seemed to be kicking more frantically as I whimpered and cried out. Something gushed, and liquid rolled down my legs. I gasped and looked down and realized my water had just broken as the first contraction made my knees buckle.

"CARTER ISAAC HERNANDES!" I screamed through the mind link.

"Babe? What's wrong?" Carter linked me as I breathed through another contraction and held my stomach.

"My water broke. I need you," I whimpered in the link.

"On my way, baby," Carter linked and closed the link.

Marcie was out with her parent's baby shopping, and Carter was coming, so I linked Staci.

"Babes!" I yelled in the link.

"Monica? Are you okay?" Staci asked.

"My water broke, and Carter is coming. I need you," I linked.

Staci replied that she was coming and closed the link. I slowly walked toward the front of our suite as another contraction made me grab the kitchen counter and pant.

A knock sounded on the door as I yelled out for whoever to come in. I whimpered and smelled Staci's sweet scent coming inside the suite.

"In here," I called out.

Staci had Ace strapped to her chest, and he was fast asleep. Staci looked at me and gasped. I whimpered and rubbed my belly as the contractions nearly stole my breath away.

"Come on," Staci grabbed my hand and led me out the door.

We took slow steps and entered the elevator. I saw Staci's eyes glaze over as the elevator descended to our destination.

"I linked the omegas to clean the mess and Dr. Scott to inform him of your arrival," Staci said as I tried to smile.

Staci rubbed my back and told me to breathe through each contraction. We arrived on the fifth floor. The doors slid open, and a nurse stood before the doors with a wheelchair before us.

"Nurse Jenny. Hi," Staci said as the nurse smiled. The nurse bowed and looked at me.

"Beta Female Davis. We were expecting you," the nurse took over and helped me to the wheelchair.

"How far apart are the contractions?" the nurse asked as she wheeled me into the pack hospital.

"About ten minutes," Staci told the nurse as we entered the hospital, and the nurse wheeled to the back.

"She'll be in room two," the nurse told Staci as she stayed in the waiting room.

I whimpered and wanted Staci with me, but I knew she had her son. The contractions seemed to be getting closer together as I panted and held my stomach. I was placed in the room as Nurse Jenny and two others changed me into a gown, hooked up to the monitor, and situated on the bed.

I was breathing through another contraction when the door opened, and Carter ran to my side. His hair was still wet, and he looked freshly showered. He wore a simple white long-sleeved T-shirt and black jeans.

"Sorry, I'm late."

"I didn't want to come here and be smelly when our pups arrived," Carter said, kissing my cheek.

"You're right on time, Beta," Dr. Scott said as he walked inside the room with a smile.

Doctor Scott looked at the monitor and wrote on his clipboard as the nurses prepared the room for our pup's birth. Carter fed me ice chips as they helped with my contractions.

Doctor Scott checked me as Carter growled, and I smacked his chest.

"That's his job. Calm down," I said and panted.

"4 cm, dilated," Dr. Scott said as I whimpered.

Doctor Scott finished his exam as a knock sounded on the door. Carter called out for the person to come. I gasped as my Dad poked his head inside the door and smiled.

"Hey, sweetie. How are you?" my Dad asked and sat beside me.

"I feel like a whale, and my back hurts," I whined.

"Your Mother felt the same when she was giving birth to you," my Dad said and rubbed my shoulder.

"I'll be waiting with the Alpha and Luna in the waiting room. Staci sends her best," my Dad said.

My Dad leaned down and kissed my cheek. He walked toward the door and turned, waving bye as he closed the door behind him.

Carter held my hand as another contraction hit, and I felt our pups move. It felt like they were fighting to see who would come out first.

"Ugh! We are never having sex again," I growled at Carter as he smiled and wiped my forehead.

"I didn't mean that," I sigh and whimper from another contraction.

"I know, babe," Carter said and kissed my knuckles.

It would be a long few hours as Mars whimpered, but I knew Caladon was sending us strength and calm through our bond. I was just ready to push these pups out.

Carter POV

Monica was strong, and she took the contractions like a champ. I knew it would be a while before she could start pushing. I saw her stomach ripple as the pups moved. The doctor would check the monitor occasionally as the nurses busied about getting ready for the birth.

Antonio mentioned that the waiting game was the hardest, but once you hear that first cry, everything pauses, and all you can think about is watching your pup enter the world and take its first breath.

Doctor Scott said he would return as another nurse stepped inside, fixing her hair. She either overslept from her nap or was busy with her mate. Either way, she was quickly filled in on the situation, put on protective scrubs, and washed her hands.

I looked at Monica and saw her rubbing her belly and eating ice chips. I'm glad Staci and Antonio shared that tip about the ice because Monica seemed calm and talked to the pups. I sighed and waited as Dr. Scott returned to check on Monica and the pups.

Four Hours Later: (Still Carter's POV)

"Oh, goddess!" Monica shouted and squeezed my arm.

Another tip that Antonio passed along. Monica almost broke my hand with her strength, so I gave her my arm, which didn't hurt as much. Monica was fully dilated and already in the process of pushing out our first pup.

Monica breathed as Dr. Scott sat on his stool as he prepared to deliver our first pup. The four nurses were on standby waiting to receive our pups.

"Good push, Beta Female," Dr. Scott praised as Monica growled.

"Here comes the head," Dr. Scott announced.

I looked down, and my eyes popped out of my sockets. I've never seen anything like it. Our pup's head was being pushed out as Monica helped move the pup farther along. I could see the light brown curly hair poking out.

"Fuck!" Monica screamed.

I kissed her cheek and rubbed her back as she pushed with all her might. The pup was coming out, and I gasped as I looked down. Our pup looked just like me, but the eyes were closed, and we still had the rest of the body to go before we knew which pup it was.

Monica pushed again as she screamed and laid back on the bed, catching her breath. We heard the first cry as Dr. Scott held our pup up for us to see.

"It's a boy," Dr. Scott announced.

Our son wailed at the top of his lungs as the doctor handed me a pair of scissors and motioned for me to cut the cord. I snipped our pup's cord as he cried louder, and the doctor laid him on Monica's chest. One of the nurses came over and made sure his airways were clear and gently cleaned him off.

I smiled proudly as I watched Monica kiss and love on our pup. He had my light brown curly hair and light-tanned skin, but I wanted to see his eyes. I heard Monica gasp as she looked up at me and smiled.

"He has your eyes," Monica said as I looked down at our son.

"Carlito Lucio Hernandes," I announced.

I heard Monica grunt as another contraction hit, and the nurse gently took our son from her arms as he fussed. Dr. Scott got ready for our next pup as Monica started pushing.

"This one is moving along smoothly," Dr. Scott said.

I looked down again and saw the pup's head coming out. Caladon was howling and running circles inside my head. Our son's scent still lingered on Monica, making me smile.

He smelled like almonds. I gasped as this pup had a head full of curly auburn hair like Monica. This pup came out faster, and she had my light-tanned skin.

"Here she comes," Dr. Scott said as Monica breathed and did one final push.

"Ah," Monica panted and laid back.

Dr. Scott held our baby girl up as she screamed at the top of her lungs. I cut the cord as the doctor laid our daughter on her Mother's chest, and she calmed down. The second nurse came over to ensure she was okay and her airways were clear.

Our daughter resembled her Mother, and when she opened her eyes, Monica and I gasped. She had Monica's sapphire blue eyes. Dr. Scott helped Monica push out the afterbirths as we stared at our daughter.

"Carissa Lucia Hernandes," Monica said and kissed our pup.

Carissa smelled like honey, and it was soothing when our pups' scents mixed. Dr. Scott ensured Monica was okay and moved us to a comfortable room while the nurses checked and cleaned the pups. Monica growled, not wanting our pups out of sight.

"Babe, it's okay. They're safe," I said, rubbing her hand as she calmed down and nodded.

Once we were inside the room. I helped Monica get out of bed and headed toward the bathroom so she could clean up and change into something comfortable. I remembered to grab her overnight bag and some clothes for the pups.

While Monica was in the shower, two nurses knocked and opened the door, rolling in two bassinets with our pups inside.

"Carlito weighed 8lbs. 6oz. measuring 21 inches long."

"Carissa weighed 7lbs 5oz. measuring 19 inches long," one of the nurses said, making me smile.

"Thank you," I told the nurses as they bowed and set the pups beside the bed.

After the nurses exited the room, Monica exited the bathroom, freshly showered and looking more relaxed. I smiled as she lay in bed and peeked inside the bassinets.

"Are you hungry?" I asked as she smiled at me and nodded.

I sent a quick link to the kitchen so that some soup and toast could be delivered to our room. I also sent a link to Antonio and Staci to inform them what room we were in.

I heard the pups cooing and helped Monica nurse them before our friends and family arrived. Staci gave Monica nursing tips on how to use the breast pump. Once the pups were done eating and back in their bassinets, a knock sounded on the door.

"Come in," I called out as my Dad poked his head inside.

"Hey, son. Safe to come in?" he asked as I nodded.

Dad, Uncle Cruz, and my Grandfather Chico Sr. resembled each other. Uncle Cruz just had a darker tone to his hair, like my Grandmother. Everyone entered the room and peeked inside the bassinets.

"They are adorable," my Mother said as she gushed over her grand pups.

"What's their names?" Staci asked as she hugged Monica while Antonio was holding Ace.

"Carlito and Carissa," I said.

Everyone was gushing at the pups' names. A knock sounded on the door. Daniel opened it, and an omega rolled in a food cart. We thanked her, and I rolled Monica's soup and toast toward her so she could eat. I had a ham and cheese sub with some chips.

Our family and friends stayed until a knock sounded on the door, and Dr. Scott poked his head inside.

"Sorry to cut the visit short."

"But we need to take the pups to the nursery so Mom can rest," Dr. Scott said.

Everyone said their goodnights as two nurses entered the room to take the pups to the nursery. Monica and I kissed our pups. I made my bed on the couch after changing into my PJs. Monica was snoring lightly as I chuckled and joined her after, getting some rest before the next feeding.
