Luna Ariel’s POINT OF VIEW again
Two more laps and I feel the first cramps coming on.
Gorgio sits at the edge of the pool watching me reach the stairs. When I get there, I grab hold of the step and take a deep breath. But then I felt another one and I was sure the contractions had started.
My eyes fly to my mate, who is now watching me closely.
“Why did you stop? You’re so red, darling”. He slowly gets up and comes over to me, still watching me closely.
“It looks like the contractions have started, Gorgio. I feel cramps in my lower abdomen”. He ran over to me, sank into the water and helped me up the steps. When he was out of the pool, he held me tightly as we walked to the deckchair.
He took the thick bath towel and wrapped me in it. I embrace the warmth that now surrounds me.
My mate helps me to lie down and holds my hand. His face is still relaxed. And then I felt the next one and I knew we were ready for the hospital room he had prepared. Suddenly my water broke and Gorgio’s iron self-control broke.
His eyes get misty, he notifies the pack doctor and puts Jace and Fiona on alert.
He wipes me dry, takes a new towel to wrap me in, then takes me in his arms bridal style. The contractions are getting stronger now and I cling to his shoulder. The pain ripping from my back to my stomach made me breathless.
“Just hold on, love. We’ll be there soon. The doctor is on his way and the midwife is waiting for us,” he reassures me. I bobbed my head, unable to say anything. In the lift he rubs my back reassuringly. The companionship helped me relax and I breathed a sigh of relief.
When we finally reached the delivery room, Elise, the midwife, was waiting for us at the door.
“Put her on the bed right away, Alpha. Then I can examine her immediately”. As soon as I was on the bed, the woman sat down between my legs.
“Aaaahh, Luna. This is happening faster than I thought. Just a little more and we can start. Then the doctor can take over from me.” I nod with a twisted face, my arms still wrapped tightly around Gorgio. Pain rips through my body and I use the breathing techniques I have learned.
“Clarita’s in the labs too. Zane informed Jace,” Gorgio whispers to me. Surprised, I looked up at him.
“But that’s two weeks earlier than planned. What a surprise. Maybe our pups will be born at the same time. I smile at the idea, forgetting the pain for a moment. Just last night I was on the phone with my best friend, joking about the heirs of Midnight Moon and Eclipse Howl. It turns out that Fiona and Alexis are also pregnant, and Clarita suspects the same for Serene.
Serene and Kensley are overjoyed and a perfect match.
Eric has moved to Blue Blood, Alexis would not stay in Midnight Moon for a penny. As a result, Mase has moved to Beta and is now living permanently in the packhouse with his mate Amelia.
Beta Jace couldn’t be happier with Fiona, King Jasper’s cousin.
Now Eclipse Howl has not only the bloodline of the Alpha King but also that of the royal Lycans. No one is prouder than Gorgio. The next generation of warriors will be strong, and no one will dare challenge us.
Gorgio has a relaxed relationship with Zane, but the two are not friends.
Even though we women get together more often, Gorgio has restricted Zane’s access to Eclipse Howl. This possessiveness and rivalry seem to be hard to get out of his system.
“Luna, you’re ready. One finger up means a normal push, but at two I expect a strong one”. The doctor is now in the midwife’s place and the contractions are coming faster every minute. With Gorgio’s support, I managed to push my way through the contractions.
David Gorgio surprised us with his loud voice. But as soon as he heard his father’s voice, he became quiet and blinked his eyes curiously. Gorgio cut the umbilical cord, wiped him clean as he had been taught to do, and held his eldest son to his cheek.
“Welcome, my son. I have waited for you for so long. Thank you for making me a father.” He kisses his firstborn while I wait eagerly to hold him in my arms.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Luna, we are going to get the girl. I can already see her head,” the doctor calls.
Gorgio quickly hands our son to the midwife and comes over to me. After a few hectic minutes, our daughter was born. She makes a loud entrance into the world. Her wave of dark blonde hair is the first thing I notice.
Gorgio cut her umbilical cord as well and kissed her tenderly. He could not take his eyes off her, tears of joy running down his cheeks. I have never seen my mate so emotional.
“Ooohh, Princess. You are so beautiful beyond words. I promise to protect you until the end of my days, my daughter”. He takes her to me and I cannot believe my eyes. She really is a beauty, a smile appears on her face. The midwife brings our clean-washed son and then we are a complete family.
I finally fell asleep from sheer exhaustion. Gorgio holds our son while the midwife bathes our little princess.
When I woke up a few hours later, I saw Gorgio sitting on a rocking chair next to my bed, holding our twins. As soon as he saw that I was awake, he came and lay down next to me.
“Time for their feedings, darling. They have been sleeping for a while, I asked them to give you some time”.
He helps me put them on my chest and together we enjoy the sight of our pups.
My life couldn’t be better…
