Chapter 43 ~Take back shit I never stole
Blake’s POV ~
It’s been two weeks since our wedding. Two weeks of absolute bliss. Since our wedding night, something shifted within us. When our wolves mated and marked, it is, as if, I can feel her. Inside my soul.. I can sense where she is.. I get flashes of what she is seeing..doing.. in unguarded moments, I even know what she is going to say..before she says it. She’s the same.. and we have been learning to control it. We had to.. it has been such a sensory overload, that we were struggling to accomplish even the smallest tasks!
Like right now. I can feel her approaching..and I can feel she’s excited…which always scares the shit out of me, by the way… but her thoughts are shielded. And that helps so much! My door bursts open and she rushes over to me. Straddling my lap, she tucks around me and buries her face in my neck. I chuckle “What’s got my little bunny so excited?” And she whispers “I’m trying to stay anchored” and I know she means she’s trying not to glitch. We have figured out she doesn’t glitch as often, if she can get to me quick enough and I hold her. I am her anchor. Although sometimes, we end up in places like Debbie’s Diner.. or the attic.. but we are getting better. I chuckle again and tell her to just hold on. She whispers “You’re going to be a daddy” And I jump up so fast, she falls on her ass!
I help her up.. rubbing her ass.. which I am not complaining about.. and ask “We’re pregnant?” And she starts to nod eeeeep and she’s gone. We hear crashing and cursing.. then Cody yells “Goddess damnit! Hold her tighter! SHIT! I really liked these pants!” And I hear her say “Shut the fuck up! Who wears fucking chinos in the winter?” As they both walk through the door. Damon and I crack up, while she dries the coffee from his pants, removing the stain mumbling “there! fucking crybaby! Shouldn’t always be walking around with hot drinks!” And he sneers “Of course not! Because everyone knows exactly when their balls are going to get scalded off by a hyperactive crazy witch!” And I snap “CODY!” His eyes get huge and he apologizes immediately saying “I really am sorry, Lex! You know I love you! Just having a rough morning! Celia is sick as fuck.. and every time I suggest seeing the doctor, she throws something at me and yells at me to leave her alone”
Alexis spins on her heels and storms out. I’m thinking “Fuck me! I have to fix this!” And we race after her. She rounds a corner and walks straight into Cody and Celia’s rooms. She’s talking lowly to Celia and placed her hands on Celia’s stomach. Then eeeeeep again and they’re both gone. And Cody said “Great! She absconded with my mate now!” And I roared with laughter. They both walk through the door behind us and Alexis leaps into my arms saying “We’re pregnancy twinsies!!” And Cody looked like a deer caught in headlights.. while I am congratulating him..
I tell my wife we should leave them alone for awhile. I want a few alone moments with her anyway! We walk up to our room.. discussing a nursery and what we want for decoration.. as I close our door.. I drop to my knees in front of her and kiss her tummy. I say “Hello in there! I’m your daddy! And I am going to do everything in my power to make sure you are the happiest, most loved pup in the world!” I stand and kiss my wife.. all the happiness we feel.. radiating through our souls.
I ask if she wants to call her parents, before we announce it to the pack.. and she nods happily. So we get to the office and I set up the Skype. Loren comes on smiling “My children! So nice to see your faces!” And Alexis smiles back asking where her mom is. Loren tells us to give him a minute and soon enough, Olivia is in his lap. Alexis looks at me and together we say “You’re going to be grandparents!!” Before we even finished speaking.. they stepped through a portal..hugging us tightly. Damon says “That shit is freaky as fuck! We have the weirdest Goddess damned pack in the world!” And all of us laughed.
Alexis is doing well with her pregnancy. We had a few weeks of morning sickness that had her cranky..whiny some days. She glitches frequently..especially now that she feels the baby flutters. The excitement she feels affects all of us. So, there’s a lot of giggles.and happiness. Although, I have noticed most people try not to be too close to her because she glitches everyone she touches when the excitement hits.
Poor Cody isn’t faring as well. Celia is the personification of Irish Temper! She will slap him if he sneezes. Literally! She slapped the shit out of him because he sneezed..and startled her. She throws things..with impeccable accuracy! He has taken to ducking when she walks into the room he’s in. He walked into the office the other day.. completely frazzled and, like a fool, Damon asked how’s everything going! And Goddess help us! He started “Everything I do is wrong. I asked if she wanted me to massage her feet and she accused me of making fun of the way she walks. She wanted snacks and I offered to cut some fruits and veggies..that apparently meant I was calling her fat. I can’t say anything right. So, I told her I would watch what I say so I don’t upset her.. and that means I don’t want to talk to her. I’m not sure which way is up.. I’m walking on eggshells. Fuck! I’m ready to take back shit I never stole!” And Damon and I lost our shit! That was too much!
