Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 694

Judy’s POV

I listened to the soft rhythm of the heart monitors as I lay in bed. My eyes were fixed on the ceiling. I could sense it the moment Gavin walked into the hospital, though the doctors wouldn’t let him see me just yet. I wanted to tell them to let him in, because I needed my mate more than anything right now. But the words wouldn’t leave my lips. I was too worried about the outcome of my baby.

They did numerous tests and pumped me with a ton of drugs until I was practically loopy. They assured me that it was perfectly safe for the baby, so I didn’t worry too much about what they were pumping me with… then again, maybe I should have asked more questions.

Then they hooked me up to some machines and left me alone in the room for what felt like hours. Periodically, a nurse would come in and give me some water, saying that I can’t eat while they are doing the testing. I hated this… I hated not knowing what was happening. I hated not being able to see Gavin or my family. I hated not knowing if my baby was okay.

A tight knot formed in the pit of my stomach, and I felt sick.

I heard a commotion coming from outside the room door, and my heart rate monitor started to sound even faster as my heart picked up speed.

“I am her doctor!! I should have been alerted that something serious was happening!! I don’t care that I’m off duty!” I heard Elizabeth Pierce yelling. I could practically feel her anger rolling off her in waves.

“We got word of the attack in Redmoon, and we knew you were at that party with your mate. We assumed you’d be tied up,” one of the other doctors stated, clearly sounding a bit flustered.

“I would have still come here to tend to this particular patient,” Eliza growled. “Don’t make this mistake again, or I will see that your license is revoked.”

She was playing around, and I knew she had the power to do that. I felt relieved that Eliza was here; I didn’t trust the other doctors, and the drugs they pumped me with made it so I could barely function on my own.

The door to the room swung open, and Eliza strolled in, looking annoyed. When she saw me lying on the bed, her face fell completely, and I could see the remorse and worry in her gaze.

“What have they done to you?” She breathed, strolling over to me after she shut the door behind her.

I swallowed the lump in my throat and attempted to nod, but my body wouldn’t cooperate. I was worried… why was my body reacting this way, and why was Eliza taking all these extra precautions?

I was so lost in thought, I barely realized she was setting up the ultrasound machine until I felt the cold jelly on my stomach. I looked at the screen in time for the light to come on, and the inside of my stomach was shown.

She moved the wand around for a moment until she landed on something. A smile tugged at her lips.

“And there’s the little bean,” she breathed. “Next month we will be able to see the gender for sure, but it’s a little swimmer and it’s going strong.”

I wanted to ask them why I was bleeding, but once again, my mouth wouldn’t work.

“I’m just going to take some blood and bring it to the lab for some testing,” she told me as she drew blood from my wrist. “As far as I’m concerned, the baby is alive and doing well. You and your wolf were under a lot of stress, and I believe that’s the reason you were showing signs of a miscarriage. This stage of your pregnancy is crucial; any ounce of stress your wolf is under could cause a miscarriage, and that was your body's warning. Some women will use drugs to sedate their wolves for the next couple of months to keep them from feeling too much stress and protect the pup. Though I don’t recommend it myself because I don’t fully know if they are entirely safe for the baby. I haven’t done enough research on those drugs to know for certain. But I can look into something that might help. In the meantime, I’m going to get you set up with another IV and do some testing of my own. I’m locking the door to this room so no other doctor can get in. If they can get in, it means I’ve sent them here and you can trust them.”
