Alpha Max

Chapter 19

Avery's POV

*~four weeks later~*

It has been an amazing four weeks since the fight between Mason and his brother. Mason and Shelby have grown inseparable. Very cute in my opinion.

I'm almost to the end of my fifth month being pregnant. And my twins are moving like crazy. Max is beyond excited to meet them. He talks to them morning and night. He even has started to read them stories at night. I don't mind he puts me to sleep at night with a story.

Speaking of sleeping...

I groaned quietly feeling a sharp kick to my lower rib. Lifting my heavy eyelids, I blinked the sleep from my eyes and looked around our semi-dark room. Glancing at the alarm clock I saw it was 6:30 AM. I huffed and glanced over my shoulder seeing Max laying on his stomach his mouth slightly open drool pooling some on the sheets.

Carefully I sat up and rubbed my swollen stomach. I huffed and carefully got up careful of not waking Max. I rubbed my stomach feeling small movement again.

Sighing, I checked myself in the mirror fixing Max's shirt I was wearing. Luckily it covered the lacey boy short underwear I was wearing. I quietly left the room and walked downstairs to start breakfast.

I'm so grateful that Lucas hasn't been showing up early anymore. His mate just had their daughter about a month ago and she is wrapped around her daddy's finger. I smiled to myself hoping Max would act the same way at Lucas.

Grabbing out eggs, bacon, and bread. I started cooking the bacon hoping to coax Max out of bed before Mason and Shelby make their way downstairs. Yes they live with us until their house gets built. I don't mind. Gives me more company with Shelby here while Max is gone. Gives me more girl time.

Speaking of girl time, she wants to go for a walk to talk to me. Strange she's never wanted to do that before unless she doesn't want people to hear. Shaking my head I grabbed out some plates and started to plate the food.

Loud groaning came from the doorway making me snap my attention over to it. I smiled seeing a sleepy Max rubbing his eye, his hair a mess, and his boxers all crooked from his sleep. I held in a giggle and set his plate on the breakfast bar. "Eat up mister." I whispered and kissed his cheek.

Max hummed and grabbed my hips pulling me into his body the best he could with my belly. He kissed me softly and quickly before bending down and kissing my stomach.

"Morning little ones." He said in a deep raspy morning voice of his, sending shivers down my spine. I hummed and ran my fingers through his hair some to fix it a little. Max hummed in response and kissed my chin before moving on to his food.

I smiled and sat down and started to eat my own glancing over at him and giggling unable to handle it.

Max glanced at me. "Why are you giggling?" He asked smiling at me sleepily as he took a sip of his coffee. "You silly. You are so cute yet funny when you wake." I said and kissed his cheek earning a chuckle from him.

I hummed and looked over seeing Mason walk into the room shirtless and in basketball shorts. Max growled and moved me closer to him wrapping an arm around my waist as he ate. Mason looked over his shoulder at us.

"Morning you two." He said grabbing creamer from the fridge. I hummed. "Morning." I said through a mouthful of food. I playfully hit Max in the stomach to get him to talk and stop glaring.

A loud grunt came from Max after I hit his stomach. I smirked and looked at Mason seeing him trying to hold in a laugh.

"Is Shelby up?" I asked taking a sip of my tea. Max held me close still his arm around my waist while his hand rested on my stomach. One of the twins pushing his or her foot or hand into his hand.

A loud purring noise came from Max as he felt one of his children push into his hand.

"Shelby is in the shower. She should be almost done." Mason said as he gathered items to make his breakfast and Shelby's. There were several scars on his right arm from his fight with his brother. I frowned and looked at Max seeing him glance at the purple/white scars as well. He looked at me and licked the tip of my nose.

The scrunched up my nose making a face at him. "Gross Max." I whined wiping my nose with the back of my hand.

"Come on Avery. You love my tongue." He said kissing my cheek.

"Gross I didn't need to know that." Shelby's voice rang out as she walked into the kitchen area. I blushed bright red hearing her comment and hearing the boys laugh.

Max kissed my temple them my cheek. "I'm sorry love I just had to." He whispered and kissed the corner of my mouth.

I purred and turned from him to tease him more. Max whined and nuzzled his head into my neck. I chuckled and patted his thigh and pushed my empty plate away full. "Have something to eat Shelby then we can go for our walk." I said softly and leaned into Max.

Max whined and kissed my temple. "I don't want you and Shelby going alone. It's too dangerous." He growled and looked at Mason. Mason nodded in agreement wrapping a protective arm around Shelby's waist. "I agree. It's not safe for you two being the Alpha's mate and sister. You two are targets out there. Take two guards with you." Mason said sternly and kissed Shelby's cheek making her blush.

I whined and looked at Max. "He has a point. I will send two guards with you two. Now since you are done eating go and get dressed." He said sternly. Huffing, I slid off my eat and headed up stairs pouting.

I get that he wants to send guards with us, but who says they will keep their mouths shut from spreading what Shelby and I talk about? Growling softly, I grabbed out a pair of black leggings, a white t-shirt, and a pair of tennis shoes.

Putting my light brown hair into a french braid, I stopped and looked at myself in the full length mirror and smiled seeing my stomach. Running my hand over the bump to the underside, I smiled even more. I don't care if I haven't seen my feet in awhile. I love these two peanuts more than anything. I would do anything to protect them from harm. For as long as I live I will protect them and their father.

"Shelby lets go!" I yelled walking down the stairs and smiled seeing her ready along with our body guards.

"Lets go. Before they send a whole army with us." Shelby giggled and took my hand pulling me from the house heading towards a trail that wasn't used that much from the rest of the pack.
