Chapter 355
I breathe through the next contraction because I’m pretty sure that’s what this is.
Hunter is very quiet, so I know he’s giving out orders while he carries me and when we get downstairs and I see the pack smiling happily at me, I know I’m right.
“Good luck, Luna.”
“We love you, Luna.”
“We can’t wait to meet our Alpha heir, Luna.”
“Penny…” Hunter calls out.
“We’ll keep the pack safe, Alpha. Go have a baby.”
When we get to the hospital, Dr. Caspian and Brooklyn are already
there.
“Here we go, Luna. Let’s see if our little Alpha Hunt is ready to meet his parents,” he says. Dr. Felicity joins him and together they smile before turning to look at me.
“Looks like you’re in labor, Luna. We’re going to keep you here, but you’re only a couple centimeters dilated. You’re welcome to walk around which can sometimes move delivery along or stay in here. We‘ 11 be back to check on you in a little while.”

Chapter 355
They come in periodically, and as the day wears on and Hunt takes his time, my mood becomes much grumpier
“What do you mean I can’t drink anything? I’ve been here all day!” I growl.
“We have ice chips for you, Luna.”
“Ice chips! What the hell do I want with ice chips? I want water!”
“Baby, stop yelling at Brooklyn and the doctors. They’re just trying to help you. Breathe, baby.”
“Why don’t you fucking breathe,” I say as another contraction hits.
The next time Dr. Caspian comes in to check me, he looks at me a bit fearfully. I may or may not have told him that if he came in here again and told me that it still wasn’t time to push that I’d kick him in his happy little face. I notice that Hunter not so subtly puts his hand on my leg, just in case.
Thankfully, this time when he checks me, he says it’s time to push.
It takes several more hours and a lot of cursing on my part, but my mate, strong as ever, remains calm and helps keep me calm. When I finally hear the sweet sound of my son’s cries, I begin laughing and crying. Hunter cuts the umbilical cord, and they wrap Hunt in a blanket and put him in Hunter’s arms, letting him bring our son to me.
I can feel Hunter’s awe and love through the bond, can see it in his eyes when he looks up at me, smiling with tears in his eyes.
“He’s as perfect as you are, Soph.”

Chapter 355
When he lays my son in my arms, everything else falls away. My heart is filled with so much love for this little boy and for his amazing father.
“I love you, Huntington Reynolds,” I say.
“I love you, Sophie Reynolds,” Hunter says, kissing my forehead.
“And I love you, Hunter Reynolds.”
Hunter
I walk into my bedroom and see my new favorite sight, my mate nursing our son. She looks up at me, still with the sweet smile still on her face from looking at Hunt.
