It's time!

Skylar POV

I woke up with sudden pains in my stomach and my pregnant mates not in bed next to me, with them being almost four months pregnant, they need to be resting as much as possible. I get out of bed and run out of the bedroom and I don't see them or smell them in the suite so I run out of the suite and down the stairs of the packhouse, in search of my mates.

I follow their scents to the backyard, both Connor and Eric holding their stomachs, grunting in pain. Sam comes up beside me as we run to them. I pick up Eric and he picks up Connor and we carry them to the clinic.

"Jaylen, both Connor, and Eric are in labor, Sam and I are bringing them in now." I said to Jaylen through mindlink.

"Ok, the room will be ready for them. I assume you want them both in the same room?" He asked me and I sent a mental nod and rushed my mates to the clinic. Eric fought me to put him down the whole way. His attitude toward me has gotten a lot worse but I grit my teeth and bear it, hoping it's just the pregnancy that is making him be so hateful, not only toward me but also to Connor once in a while.

We go into the room and we lay them down on the beds, helping put their legs in the foot holder things on the end of the bed after they get changed into gowns.

"Ok, since the labor just started, I'm going to start an IV to help with the pain but it won't do much as you will burn through it quickly. I will give you both as much as I can though." Jaylen and a nurse started the IV's and I watch as he takes care of my mates, not knowing what to do at the moment so waiting is what seems best. I don't want to be in the way of both my mate's health.

When the pain gets too bad for them, I'll use my tactile healing to take the pain away. I want them to be comfortable during this time, it's a beautiful moment and I want them to be able to enjoy it without feeling pain.

Sam and I go between them, wiping the sweat off their foreheads, holding their hands and giving them ice chips. It's been a couple of hours and Jaylen checked them to see they were slowing dilating so the labor is a slow process, given it's their first baby. Most people think just because we're werewolves that the birthing process goes by quickly, it doesn't. We still have human bodies so natural things like childbirth will take time like normal humans.

"Beautiful, are you in any pain?" I asked Eric as I wiped his forehead and face with a cool rag, he looks like he is about to pass out from being so tired. He can only shake his head and closes his eyes, I guess my powers are really helping if he can sleep right now which makes me feel relieved. I look over at Connor and see him talking quietly to Sam, I don't listen even though I can hear what they are saying, I just focus back on my beautiful mate sleeping peacefully. He looks so relaxed and I can't help but hope he will be his sweet self to me again once our children are born. I don't like this space between us, it's not healthy.

"AHHHHHH!!!" Eric woke up screaming and Jaylen rushed to him to check him out.

"Looks like you are ready Eric." When he said that, Connor screamed out as well so Dr. Scott rushed to help him. I stood in between the beds and held both their hands, taking their pain away as I helped them with their breathing as they pushed for the first time, them both squeezing my hands so tight they were turning white but I didn't care, it was helping my amazing beautiful mates.

It went on for three hours, pushing, taking a little break, pushing and a lot of cussing and threats to rip my dick off from both of them when we finally had our three little miracles in our lives. I look between my mates and my babies, not wanting to leave my mates but wanting to be by my pups.

"Go, watch over them darlin'. I can see you want to." Connor said softly and gave me a sleepy smile. I kissed Eric and him and went into the other room, where my babies were being cleaned off and hooked up to machines and had IV's.

"What's wrong with them? Why the medical stuff?" I asked Jaylen going to his side to look at my beautiful baby girl.

"They were born a little early so they are a little underweight. They just need to gain some weight, the twins weigh barely above two and a half pounds and this little one three pounds, don't worry, in a couple weeks if that with your blood, they will be fine. Everything else looks perfect, they have good color, their reflexes are good, good airway and good sets of lungs. Congratulations Dadai, you have beautiful pups." Jaylen said and patted me on my shoulder as I breathed a sigh of relief.

"What are their names?" Jake asked softly walking over to me looking at the pups.

"Well, we thought of Blair and Brayan for the twins and Bree for her. What do you think?" I asked looking at him, seeing him with a proud smile and he nodded.

"Sounds perfect for my beautiful grand-pups. How did everything go?"

"They did, wonderful. Eric started pushing first and right after he screamed in pain, Connor did and it took three hours but all five of them are doing great. I can't believe I'm a father of three at not even nineteen years old. Seems I'm much older with everything that has happened these past six months." I said and he chuckled.

"Yea, our lives are never normal and time seems to go by quickly. Just take the time and enjoy your children. Connor grew up way too fast and I missed three years of his life and now Collen, he's growing so much, he's teething already. I blinked and he had a tooth coming in, it's crazy. Kiddo?" He said and turned to face me and I did the same.

"Do not let them out of your sight for a second, I don't want what happened with Connor or you to happen to them, so please, protect them with all you have." He looked into my eyes to show me he was serious but I knew he was, he still feels regret to this day for Connor being taken but no matter what we all say, even Connor since he has forgiven Jake and finally realized it wasn't his fault, he will always feel regret. It's one of the things he feels he failed at so he has told me this many times already and I listen wholeheartedly when he tells me to protect my babies, each time.

"I will, I won't let anything happen to them. My parents and I had put up a powerful spell around the packgrounds, the packhouse and even five miles out just to be safe. I truly hope it will be enough, who knows what Keriana has planned though, over the years she could have become more powerful, who knows." Just as I said that the lights go out and back on a few seconds later but the beds and my babies are gone.

Unknown POV

Score one for moi, I have the advantage now. Maybe I'll raise them as my own and take back my place on the throne. If only they paid more attention to my hurt, the way I felt like an outcast. The babies look so cute, I'm not one to lie. Enough of my rambling, time to send them a little gift.

"I want 100 hunters and 200 rogues to pay a little visit to the pack, tell them I want Skylar in exchange for the pups and if they turn down my offer I will eradicate the entire pack, no survivors."

"Yes, miss."

Let the games begin.
