The Alpha's Mate

Chapter 21-Alex

I wake up in the morning thinking it was going to be a regular day.  I realized I was wrong.  Emily had her baby not long after we all woke up.  The most adorable baby I have ever seen.  That made me realize what was missing in my life.  A family.  I want Taylor to be my wife.  I want us to start a family of our own.  I asked Taylor to marry me, and she said yes.  I was the happiest man alive.  I cannot believe that she said yes after only months of knowing her.   Then I found out she was pregnat. Now I know that my life is complete.  I am about to have a wife and a child of our own.

When Taylor told me she is pregnant, I did not know what to do.  I thought maybe she was joking with me.

~Flashback~

"Alex?"

"Yes?"

"Do you ever want a family?"  Why on earth would she ask me that.  She knows I do.

"Why would you ask me that? Of course I want a family.  We will once we are married.  If seems life forever, and I do not know if I can wait that long, but I guess I have to."  I really cannot wait.  I want to marry her now and start our family.  It seems like it will be forever before that actually happens.

Next thing you know I she whispers something that made my heart stop.

"What if I told you you would get one before w......" then it gets quiet.  

"What? What did you just say?"  My heart dropped, and now it is not in my chest.  I seriously cannot feel it beating anymore.

"Please do not be mad.  I know you want one, but I do not know if you are just trying to be nice."

She is pregnant, I just know it.

"Taylor, are you saying you are...."

She nodded her head and before I knew what was going on myself, I stop the car and jump out.  I ran all the way to her side, opened the door, and pulled her out

."Are you seriously saying you are pregnant? No joke?"

"Alex, I went to the doctor two days ago.  She said I was. Please do not be mad."

Mad? How on earth could I be mad? I grabbed her by the waist and started spinning her around.  We were both laughing, then she told me to put her down.

""Oh sorry," I said while putting her down.  "I just cannot believe it.  This is the greatest day ever."

"I though me saying yes to marrying you was the greatest day ever."

"Well, they are tied.  Baby, I love you.'' I kissed her.  The kiss was perfect.  Filled with everything that I feel about her and she feels about me. I already love our unborn child.  I never thought my life could get better than this.

~End of Flashback~

I was not lying when I said that day was the best day ever, but I was not prepared for what came after that day.  She was constantly crying about something, I will never know, and she always has cravings.  She would wake my up at 2 in the morning and ask me to go to the store.  Why me?  Right, because I was the one that got her pregnant, and now I am paying for it.  I hear it gets better though.  MIke is the happiest man I have ever seen.  There baby, Isabella, is the light of their world.  Emily has a brightness to her that made her look and feel different.

MIke told me that he had to go through the same thing when Emily was pregnant.  He did not like it,  but apparently it gets better.  For some reason I do not believe him.  Taylor is always moody.  She is happy one minute, sad the next.  She even tends to be mad at points.  I will never get women and the whole pregnancy thing. 

It has been a long day, and now I am ready to get to sleep.  I layed down beside Taylor and fell asleep right when my head hit the pillow.

That night I dreamed about Taylor and a little girl.  I did not know who she was.  She kept running and Taylor was chasing her, laughing.  When Taylor caught her, she started tickling her.  The little girl just kept laughing.  I started walking up to them.  I want to meet this little girl.  

When I walked up the little looked at me and smiled.  She ran up to me and gave me a hug.  I was a little confused.  Taylor looked at me and smiled.  

"Umm, hello.  What is your name," I asked the little girl.

"Daddy, you are funny," she says laughing and still hugging me.  Daddy? She is my daughter.  I looked down at her and saw the biggest green eyes ever.  Taylor's eyes.  She had my hair and my nose.  She also had Taylor's ears and lips.  She is the perfect little girl.

"Honey, do not stand there and act like you do not know your own daughter.  Jasmine, come here sweety.  I think you are suffucating your father," Taylor said.

Jasmine.  I fits perfectly with her.  

I wake up that morning feeling really good.  

Jasmine.  If our child is going to be a girl, that will be her name.  It is perfect.

I walk downstairs to make me and Taylor breakfast.  No way am I going to let her make it while she is pregnant.  She is going to be in bed.  I am going to make sure they both stay healthy.  I realized I already love our unborn child.  Whether the child will be a boy or girl, the baby is going to be perfect.  

I walk back upstairs to find Taylor still asleep.  She looks so cute when she is sleeping.  I walked up to her and kissed her on the forehead.  That woke her up.  She got up yawning.  She is even cuter when she wakes up.  

"Mmm, that smells so good," she said sniffing the air.

"I made you your favorite breakfast.  Pancakes with maple syrup and bacon, with a side of orange juice."

"You are the sweetest guy I have ever met."

"I know."

"And very cocky," she said, "but I still love you."

"I love you too baby.  Now eat."

"Since when do you get all bossy?"

"Since I found out you were pregnant.  I want you both healthy."

"We will be fine.  Plus, I am not going to stay in this room for 3 months." Right, forgot that the pregnancy only lasts for 3 months, just like regular wolves.  This is just great.  Well, at the end it will be worth it.
