An Alpha's Pride (Jamie and the Alpha Book 2)

2

      Nine months, Elaine had prepared herself to be ready for this moment for nine months.

      For nine months she had talked with both Rose and her mate, along with Martha and Jamie's father Luther about what to expect when it came to the birth of her pups, but none of that seemed to prepare her for the reality.

      For seventeen hours she waited with Jamie for him to dilate six inches to then have to endure the pain of hearing him scream as he pushed their pups out of his body and into the world.  

      Her wolf had been so worked up that if it wasn't for the heavily dosed meds the doctors prescribed her she without a doubt would've punched somebody for her wolf thought it was the doctor causing him pain.

      But after twenty minuets of screaming, short unstable breathing and gallons of sweat Jamie and Elaine heard a sound that made both of their hearts stop and swell with love.

      The sound of their pup's crying for the very first time.

      Elaine had never thought something so beautiful could be so small, but she loved them with all her heart.

      Her wolf agreed, and thought that nurses and doctors shouldn't be the ones holding them, she should be.

      Once the twins were cleaned and handed to her mate she  growled in warning to everyone in the room making them all leave, no exceptions.

      While his mate busy was acting like the wolf inside, Jamie's heart swelled with love and affection as he held his two pups.....his babies close to his chest.

      Never in his life did he think that he could love something so unconditionally so quickly as he loved the two small babies in his arms.

      The two now sleeping pups were perfect in every way. Their small bodies curled in his arms as he kissed their small black haired heads as he cried in exhausted joy.

      All to soon after the hospital staff left did they hear a knock on the door to the room breaking the beautiful silence he had enjoyed as he held his pups.

      On alert Elaine looked towards the door and growled as she clutched Jamie's shoulders possessively as five alpha's entered the room slowly.

     In truth Elaine's rational side recognized that the alpha's were her sister, Jamie's parents and siblings, and her mentor/mother figure Rose but the wolf inside didn't seem to care.

      They were alpha's, powerful ones at that, and they weren't allowed to come near her exhausted mate and newly born pups.

      Despite being exhausted, Jamie couldn't help but smiled at Elaine's possessiveness.

          "Elaine it's ok they're family." Jamie said giving her a tired smile. 

          "I. Don't. Care." she growled, eyes fierce making Jamie's mother smile.

          "I remember when you were like this. Actually you were worse." she laughed at her mate.

          "I was not worse." he argued.

          "Not worse? We've been in here for about a minute and she hasn't knocked anybody out yet. Unlike you who knocked out your old man within the first ten seconds, I'd say you were worse." Martha laughed to herself as Luther rolled his eyes, but smiled at the memory.

      Jamie and his siblings laughed too as he couldn't help but imagine the sight of his tall six foot six, two hundred and twenty pound father punching their grandfather.
