Ross POV:

I tightened my hold on Jaxon as he snuggled into me further. Remus had gotten up to make breakfast for Jaxon and the little ones, as they will certainly be hungry when he wakes up.

I can't believe the he managed to hide his stomach from us for weeks. I should have noticed something when he started having a 'glow' about him, the stereotypical pregnant glow you'll see on pregnant people. It makes me want to wrap him in bubble wrap and lock him in our room until he gives birth and keep them all safe forever.

But I would never do that, because one, Jaxon would probably attempt to kill me and two, he would escape as well. But I am so happy he is pregnant with our pups, our own, glorious pups to nurture and watch grow into strong wolf/cats.

But wait, we have children already!

A soft tap at the door roused me from my thoughts.

"Yes?" I called quietly, afraid to wake the beauty in my arms.

Two adorable faces poked round the door, one clutching a pale, blue blanket to his frame.

"Papa, we don't want to sleep alone, the bad guy might get us, can we sleep with you?"

"Boys, it's," I look at the clock.

"7am. You don't need to sleep anymore."

Their bottom lips trembled and their eyes became damp.

"Fine, but be very quiet, your mama is sleeping."

They crept to the bed and hopped up. I opened the duvet and they crawled in between me and Jaxon, snuggling into us both. I hugged all three tighter and drifted off again...

Jaxon POV:

I woke to the sound of soft giggling coming from behind me and I turned slowly and opened my eyes.
Ross smiled at the two pups as he ticked Jessie carefully.
I looked at the clock and was suprised at the fact it was only 9am.
I yawned and sat up, stretching carefully.

"Morning Baby." Ross nuzzled into my neck.

"Morning, sleep well?" I got a nod and I turned to the pups.
"Morning Boys."

"Morning Mama."
I don't think I will get used to that, but I am estatic that they are calling me mama. I've always wanted to start a family, wether adopting or my own, but I couldn't find my mates for such a long time, and I didn't want to attempt to give birth to someone else's pups (for starters, they would've died and second, my cat wouldn't have allowed it). But I have a family now, and in more than one way.
I am so happy.

"Baby? Remus has got breakfast ready downstairs. It's been there for about an hour, but we can reheat it again."

"Sounds good, let's go." I stood up too quickly causing my stomach to drop and nausea to hit me.
I sprinted to the bathroom as my last meal came back to greet me.
I could hear Ross ushering the boys out of the room, and I felt his hand rubbing soothing patterns onto my back as I coughed up the excess.

"You ok baby? Is that just morning sickness?"
I nodded. "Although it normally starts around lunchtime. I don't know why they called it morning sickness, I have not had it in the morning until now."

"Well, clean your mouth and let's head down, maybe we can find something to settle your stomach?" Ross crooned, handing me some mouthwash.
I smiled in thanks and quickly rinsed my mouth before following Ross downstairs.
Upon entering the kitchen, I was wrapped into a strong pair of arms not belonging to Ross.

"Hello mate, I have heard you've made breakfast?" I mumbled into his chest.

"Indeed I have, why don't you find somewhere comfortable to sit and I'll bring it over?" Remus pressed a kiss to the side of my head before releasing me and returning to the stove.

Following Remus' words, I waddled over to the couch and spread myself out with my legs barely reaching the other end. I yawned and switched the TV on, deciding that watching the news would be my best option for the time being. Ross joined me, moving my feet onto his lap and rubbing my calves and thighs soothingly.

Five minutes later, Remus set a plate infront of me piled high with bacon, eggs and beans. I gave him a kiss as thanks before digging in. As soon as the first bite hit my tongue, I moaned at the delicious tastes. This was the best breakfast I have ever had.

"Baby, I would advise you to stop those amazing noises, otherwise we will both be thinking of jumping you." Ross groaned out, staring at my slightly bacon greased lips. I grinned at them both.

"But this food is amazing, how can I not vocalise my appreciation for your cooking?" I took another bite and moaned again.

"Kitten," Remus warned. "I appreciate the fact you like the food, but we do have something important to talk about, and neither of us want to be distracted with thoughts of you..." My eyes started to well up not of my own accord and I sniffled.
"Not that it's a bad thing! But it wouldn't be appropriate right now. Don't cry, I'm really sorry that I didn't use the rights words." Remus rushed, trying to save himself.

"No, no, I get it," I reassured him. "I'm fat and useless for the time being, I can't do anything until the babies are born." My sadness turned to anger.

"No Baby," Ross assured me. "You're not fat, you're pregnant. There is a huge difference. Besides, you're very sexy like this. You're not useless, you are carrying our children, which is one of the most important things to all of us. So, please can you calm down so we can talk."

I breathed in deeply before releasing the breath in a rush.
"I am very sorry for reacting like that, I don't know what came over me." I apologised.

"Hormones, that's what." Ross joked, earning a light slap on the thigh from me.

"Anyway, we need to talk about what has been happening while we were apart, we need to make sure all of you are ok." Ross said, watching me intently.

"Ok," I answered. "What do you need to know?"

### time skip of around 2 hours (because I am lazy and I have made you wait too long for this)
I filled them in with all I could think about, from when we first made love, when I realised I was pregnant, the guy in the forest and any differences in the pups. I explained to them why I couldn't tell them, as one, mixed cat hybrids don't always survived the first few weeks, second, the fathers (themselves) weren't around and I didn't want to tell them over the phone or computer, third, I knew as soon as I told them, I would be sent straight to the pack house and I wouldn't have time to acclimatise myself or any of my wolves, which would cause stress for all of us and fourth, I wanted it to be a surprise as it gave me some breathing space to do what I wanted when I wanted as well as being by myself meant I didn't have to worry about boundaries being placed to put my mates' minds' at rest.

When I finished speaking, my mates were looking at me with a mix of emotions I couldn't quite recognise.
"Baby, we both understand why you didn't say anything," Ross began. "But you shouldn't have had to go through that alone. We are supposed to be around to protect you all and keep you safe, if we knew you were pregnant, we would have placed trusted wolves around here and come and helped you in anyway possible. We feel so bad we didn't notice any signs and we hope we can make it up any way possible."

I smiled. "Guys, I did it on purpose. I didn't expect you to notice any signs, and I know you guys are amazing mates, you don't have to make anything up but for cuddles that I have not had."

Ross rubbed my stomach lightly.
"How many are there?"

"I feel like there are four, but I can't quite decipher separate heartbeats."

Remus put his head to my stomach.
"I think I hear four," He went to pull his head away, but I pushed it back down and shushed him. I grabbed Ross' hand and set it on the lower part of my stomach. There was no movement for a moment, but I felt a shift and I chuckled as both my mates' faces lit up with surprise and happiness.

Ross scooped me up and led the way to the bedroom, setting me carefully on top of the sheets and snuggled me carefully. Remus joined and I felt the peace from all our animals.
"I love you both." I whispered.
