I was in the mare barn when Trace came out. "Hey Ash! How long do you think that Athena will take to birth?"

"She's actually close. I'd say another couple hours, tops. But Francesca is laboring too, not far behind Athena. Now I think that Anastasia is too."

"Sounds like a long night ahead of you." He said as he looked over the stall's half door that held Anastasia. "Hello there Annie. How's my girl doing? Are you gonna become a new mommy tonight? Huh?" He asked the horse as he ran his hand down her neck. Anastasia rubbed her nose against Trace's shoulder. Trace chuckled.

"Hey Doc Ashley! I brought you something to eat and drink. Courtesy of mom." I look up as I hear Trevor. He held a plate of food and a Coca-Cola.

"A man who knows the trail to my heart! Looks like I'm going to need that by the end of the night." He raised an eyebrow. "I have three laboring mares. But at least their stalls are all together and not from one end to the other."

"Well I'm here to help anyway you need me. Use me, my love!" The grin on his face is sexy as hell. I laughed with him.

We all sat down on a couple bales of hay. I ate while we talked. The chicken hit the spot. We had left the doors open at either end of the barn, so a nice breeze was blowing through. It was soon dark and the doors were shut. Athena gave birth to a healthy girl. She was solid black, just like her mommy.

After a few more hours, Franny gave birth to a little boy. He was tall and looked like his legs were too long for him. His beautiful chestnut coloring was set apart with two white stockings, just like his daddy.

Trace had fallen asleep on the hay as I looked over Anastasia. She's having a hard time. "What do you need, doc?"

"Can you hand me those long gloves over there?" Trevor handed me the plastic gloves that went all the way to my shoulders.

"Tell me anything that you need."

"Thank you Trev." I lubed the glove so that I can check the baby. I feel around the baby. "We have a breach. I need to turn it. Lube my glove. I need to hurry." Anastasia started another contraction. Her birth canal squeezed the shit out of my arm. "Holy fuck!"

"You ok love? Do I need to take over?" Trevor asked me worriedly. He finished with my glove.

I shook my head. "She's contracting. Your arms are too big and could hurt her." The canal relaxed. I looked to see Trevor rubbing her neck and stomach in long soothing strokes.

I smiled at him in thanks. I slid my left arm in and started slowly and gently as possible to turn the baby in the right direction. "She's about to contract again." Trevor said quietly.

I removed my left arm just in time. Only my right arm was trapped. After a minute, the contraction was over. I finished turning the baby quickly and withdrew both arms. After another moment, Anastasia started pushing. Another half hour and a buckskin filly was born. Mom and daughter were healthy, and tired, but will recover completely. I checked on the other new moms and babies. All are doing great.

"Let's go to bed love. I know that you're exhausted." Trevor held me from behind.

"I totally agree!" I turned in his arms. I lay my head on his chest and I felt a kiss on my head. I looked where Trace was asleep on a bed made from six hay bales. I cover him with a blanket from the shelf above him.

Trevor and I go to my house. I take a quick shower and dress in a shirt that I stole from Trace and go straight to bed as Trevor showers. I set my alarm for five- thirty. We have only two hours before I have to be back up and at it.
