His Queen To Claim (Book Two)✔️

5. Chapter Five.

I swatted the twins away from the monitor like pesky flies, earning a melodramatic groan from the two as they begrudgingly gave me some space to take a closer look myself.

"Geez, you'd think they've never seen a baby before," I muttered under my breath, shaking my head at their overeager antics.

Despite squinting and scrutinizing the screen, I couldn't spot the baby either, and Nico's frustrated grumbles echoed my confusion.

"I'm just not sure what we're looking for," Rico muttered, who were still craning his neck in an attempt to catch a glimpse of his future niece or nephew.

Nico, still craning his neck in an attempt to see the elusive fetus, let out an exasperated grumble. "I'm so confused, I can't even see the dang baby," he whined, tilting his head in an unusual way that made him look like a confused puppy.

Rico, always the practical one, cut in with his burning question. "And when can we find out if it's a boy or a girl? I need to know whether to start buying blue or pink onesies, stat!" he exclaimed, throwing his hands up in frustration.

The sit in nurse who wasn't my doctor as I was told, who had been patiently observing our antics, finally spoke up. "Well, we can usually determine the baby's sex at around twenty weeks. However, we're only at five weeks now, so you'll have to wait a bit longer for that exciting reveal."

The twins' faces fell at the news, but I couldn't help but feel relieved that we had more time to prepare for this life-changing event.

As the twins continued to squabble over potential baby names and nursery themes, I couldn't help but feel grateful for their infectious enthusiasm. Who knew that being pregnant could be so entertaining? I prayed it stayed that way even after the baby is born.

As the twins continued to suggest baby names, I was caught off guard by Rico's proposal. "I want a girl, her name should be Rica Vikings," he stated confidently. However, I was hesitant about the name he had in mind for our child.

"Woah, woah! My baby will not be named a Vikings," I protested firmly, feeling a strong sense of reservation towards the last name.

The twins seemed taken aback by my reaction and both gasped in disbelief. "You can't do that." they exclaimed, their voices full of surprise.

Nico, the more outspoken of the two twins, spoke up with an impassioned plea. "She is a Viking, and although you don't want Dimitri around her or him, we believe you shouldn't deprive him of at least his baby's rightful name," he argued fervently. "We won't stand by and watch our niece get a different last name. Absolutely not! We'll go to court if we have to," he continued, his voice rising in volume.

As I sat in the examination room, waiting for the doctor to arrive, I couldn't help but feel nervous. However, as soon as the door opened and the actual doctor walked in, my nerves were immediately replaced by a sense of awe.

In front of me stood a tall and strikingly handsome man with features reminiscent of a Greek god. My mouth fell open at the sight of him, and I struggled to compose myself.

The doctor introduced himself as Domenico, with a charming smile that could light up the room. "I'll be your personal doctor from now on, Rena," he said in a deep, soothing voice.

I couldn't help but feel my heart flutter as he spoke my name. It was clear that this young and handsome doctor had a natural charisma and an easy charm that made him instantly likable.

Despite my best efforts to maintain my composure, I was completely flabbergasted by his presence, and this didn't go unnoticed by the twins who were sitting in the corner of the room, frowning at my obvious infatuation.
