Luke's POV

I was startled awake when I felt something hit my side. Nimue's eyes were wide open, her fists clenched, body shaking. "Little One?" I said, but she didn't respond. She screamed and a chair flew across the room as Gabe bolted upright.

"What the fuck?" he yelled watching another piece of furniture shatter against the wall. "Are you doing that, or is she?"

"It's all her," I said. The bed suddenly lifted off the ground, then started to slam downwards, but Gabe grabbed both of us and held us suspended mid-air magically. The bed frame shattered, mattress particles floating in the air as he lowered us carefully. When her feet touched the floor, she collapsed into our arms, and every other item suspended fell crashing to the floor.

The door opened and Axel stared at us, looking around the destroyed room. "What the hell happened here?" he demanded.

"We'd like to know the same thing," I said, cradling Nimue against me. Gabe waved his arm and the destroyed bed moved to the side of the room. Axel smirked and snapped his fingers, replacing the broken bed with a new one.

"How the fuck did you learn that?" Gabe asked.

"Just thought I'd try it, and what do you know, it worked," Axel grinned. I laid Nimue on the new bed, her head in my lap, eyes now closed. "Looks like at least the pregnancy is back to normal." He pointed to her belly. It didn't appear to have changed from earlier. He sat at the foot of the bed, reached out, and stroked her leg gently. "Do you think someone is hurting her?"

I shook my head, "It's like she was having a nightmare or something and her magic just took over." She mumbled in her sleep and rolled over, her face now pressed against my crotch. I groaned as Gabe and Axel laughed at my predicament. When I tried to shift, she moaned softly and reached behind her, grabbing Gabe's upper thigh. He grunted and scooted closer slightly. Her eyes fluttered open as she pushed herself up, realizing her position. "Hey little one, how are you feeling?" I asked, steadying her.

"I, um, I don't know really," she said, looking around the room. "What happened? Oh, hello Axel," she said, her eyes landing on him.

"Hey Flower," he said, giving her a smile and chuckled, "Just wanted to check on you and found a war zone instead."

Her eyes widened, "Did someone...did my aunt?"

"Nope, that's all you, Snow," Gabe chuckled, "You're a one-woman fucking wrecking ball apparently." She made a choking sound. "What were you dreaming about?"

"Oh, well," she frowned, opening her mouth a couple of times, then growled, "Well fuck, I can't remember now!" Across the room another chair exploded, making us all jump. "Did I do that?" she gasped.

"Flower, I think you have some new powers," Axel chuckled.

I thought for a moment, "Do you think it might be the babies giving her more power? I mean, she did just race through two months worth of growth in less than a day." She groaned and fell against me, then whimpered. "Little one, what's wrong?"

"I'm horny," she rushed, hiding her face again. We all groaned. "Sorry," she whispered and tried to bury herself in the bedding.

I ran my hand down her back, "Why are you sorry, little one?" I placed kisses along her neck and she moaned softly.

She whimpered and buried her face deeper, her voice muffled, "Stupid pregnancy hormones, one minute I want to cry then the next minute, I want...gggrrr!"

Gabe pulled her hair back from her face, "Don't hide from us, Snow." He motioned to Axel, who began to rub along her legs, placing soft kisses. She took in a shaky breath and met my gaze.
