Chasing The Rejected Luna's Heart (Clara and Liam) novel Chapter 148

~CLARA~

Shock was an understatement of how I felt at that moment. Damon and I stared at the screen, not saying a word. I was having twins? Not one child but two?

“Oh goddess, we're having twins” Damon whispered mostly to himself but I heard him loud and clear.

“Are you sure? Maybe…” My voice shook as I spoke. What if there was a mistake? I didn't want to be excited only for my excitement to be diminished.

“You’re having twins, Mrs Donovan but if you want to be extra sure then we can wait for the test results to come out but I can tell you that you're having twins” The doctor assured me with a kind smile on her face.

“We are having twins baby” Damon said as he bent down and wrapped his arms around me. The feeling of his warmth immediately brought tears to my eyes as I wrapped my arms around his neck.

It was real, we were having twins! We stayed in that position for a while, lost in our thoughts and hadn't even realized when the doctor had left us.

After a while, Damon pulled away and sat down next to me on the bed. He reached forward and caressed my face before placing a kiss on my lips.

“Why do I feel like the moon goddess blessed us with two because we lost one?” I questioned softly as Damon kissed away my tears.

“That’s exactly what I think as well but whatever it is, I'm so grateful to the moon goddess and so grateful for you. Are you nervous?” He asked as he caressed my cheek and I nodded.

“I’m kind of nervous but I know for sure that as long as you're here with me, I'll be okay” I replied before resting my head on his chest.

I could literally feel the happiness radiating off Damon but I knew he was trying to suppress it so he wouldn't overwhelm me which I was grateful for. This was a lot to take in.

After getting my test results, it finally became real. We were having twins!

The doctor had asked if we wanted to know their genders but I didn't want to and Damon went with what I wanted. After a while, Damon and I left and I had fallen asleep halfway due to exhaustion. I couldn't begin to explain how many emotions I was feeling at that moment. Fear? Happiness? Uncertain? Anger? Sadness? I wasn't even sure anymore and because of this, I didn't know how to react and I knew my lack of reaction was giving Damon mixed signals.

I didn't need to be awake to know we had gotten to our room. As soon as my body touched the soft bed, I blinked my eyelids open and grabbed onto Damon's hand before he could leave.

“I wasn't going anywhere. I wanted to take off your shoe” He assured me, making me sigh.

“I am happy, you know I am right? I'm just scared. With everything going on… twins? What if…”

“Nothing is going to happen to you or our babies. I don't want you worrying yourself about things like that. Don't you trust me to take care of you?” He questioned.

“Of course I do but…”

“But nothing. I'm willing to give up my life or sacrifice any fucking body to protect you and our babies, Clara. Please trust me on this, Clara” He uttered softly, making me sigh.
