Thirty-Two: The Beta’s Pregnant Goddess
Kylani
Again I am dying. Ok, so I know I can’t really die, but for fuck sake, it sure feels like my insides are being ripped out of my body. I have never been in this much pain. I know it’s not another heat. I am hot but not like that. It started yesterday. I just thought that it was that time of the month and normal cramps. These are not normal fucking cramps. I just want it to stop. I have been lying here in this hospital bed for the last ten minutes. The doctors are running tests to figure this shit out. I wish they would hurry the fuck up or give me something for the pain. I start to cramp up again when I hear Kaleb yelling. I hear Dustin tell him to stop yelling. I wrap my arms around my middle and scream out in pain. Kaleb comes bursting in through the door straight to my bed. Chris and Dustin are right behind him.
“Kylani, baby, what’s going on?” He asks worriedly.
“I am dying.” I cry out.
“You can’t die; stop being dramatic.” Chris sighs.
I glare at him, and he just rolls his eyes at me. I know what he is saying is true, but he is still an asshole. I tell Kaleb I have no idea what is wrong. I explained that it started last night but that I thought that it was just that time of the month. The faces the three give me tell me they don’t want to know about that. We all sit there for about an hour. I tell the guys to get something to eat. Kaleb doesn’t want to, but I tell him there is nothing that he can do. About five minutes after they leave, the doctor comes in with a big smile on her face. I actually get very concerned.
“What is it?” I ask, holding my breath.
“You're pregnant. You are two months along.” She answers happily.
I sat there in shock. I have no idea what I am going to do. Kaleb and I have only been together for two or three months. I doubt he wants kids right now. Well, this is not good. The doctor leaves to get the ultrasound. I can feel tears forming and a breakdown building. I can’t hold back the tears as Kaleb walks in. He is instantly by my side, making me look at him.
“What is it? Has the doctor been in?” He asks.
All I can do is nod my head. I can’t get any words out. I am so fucking scared about how he is going to react. I know he is going to be pissed. I was just coming up with ideas about how not to tell him when the doctor comes back in with the ultrasound machine. Kaleb looks at the doctor and then at the machine. I close my eyes, pull up my shirt, and let the doctor do the ultrasound. She plops a glop of the freezing cold gel onto my belly and puts the probe down. I open my eyes, and our little peanut is on the screen. I still haven’t looked at Kaleb. It takes Kaleb a few seconds to register what he is looking at. I still can’t look at him. I don’t want to see his anger.
“Is that what I think it is?” He asks quietly.
“Yes, Beta, that is your pup. Her body is stretching to make room for the pup. Since pups grow faster than humans or, I am guessing, immortal babies, it’s causing a little more pain than if she was a wolf.” The doctor explains.
The doctor prints us off a few pictures. It’s too early to tell if it is a boy or girl. The doctor leaves the room. Now it’s just Kaleb and me. I wish he would say something to break the silence. I sit back up. The doctor gave me a couple of aspirin, and they seem to be kicking in. I still have some cramps, but they are definitely more tolerable. I guess if he doesn’t want anything to do with us, I still have a little piece of him. The tears start flowing, and I can’t help the sob that escapes.
“Hey gorgeous, why the tears?” He asks, tilting my head up to look at him.
“ I’m sorry, I’ll leave. You won’t have to be burdened with us.” I sob out.
“Why are you sorry? No, you won’t leave, and you two are not a burden.” He tells me.
I continue to cry and sob. Wait, what? He doesn’t want me to leave.
“You aren’t angry?” I ask.
“Angry, Kylani, I am beyond happy. I want this more than you’ll ever know.” He says to me.
He climbs up into the bed and wraps me in his arms. He slips a hand to cover my belly. I look at him, and he has a huge smile on his face. God, I love this man. Dustin sticks his head in to see what is happening. Kaleb tells him to come in.
“What the fuck is wrong with my sister.” Mykenzie rants right behind Dustin.
I swear Dustin jumps about six feet in the air. He whips around and gives Mykenzie a glare that she ignores. She climbs in bed by me, and we have a talk. Both Kaleb and Dustin watch us. We can talk to each other through our minds. I tell her that I am pregnant, and she lets out a squeal. That’s when I told her that maybe she should take a test too. She gives me a smile and says that she already did and that she was also pregnant. It was my turn to squeal.
“What in the hell is all this squealing for?” Chris asks with a raised eyebrow.
“You are gonna be uncle times two,” Mykenzie says, smiling
“Oh, what in the fuck. Both of you are pregnant at the same time. This is going to be fucking hell. Maybe I’ll hang out with Uncle Hades.” Chris rants.
Dusting and Kalbe start laughing at Chris. About thirty minutes later, the doctor returns and says I can go. She tells me to take some aspirin when the cramps get worse and that a heating pad will also help. She also says that the cramps should only last a couple more days until my body gets accustomed to the growing pup. We all walk back to the packhouse, and when we walk in, Mykayla is there at the door. She gives both of us a hug.
“This is going to be interesting for three women pregnant at the same time.” Ashton sighs.
I just tell him to fuck off and walk to mine and Kaleb’s room. I need a shower. I strip down and step into the shower. I place a hand on my belly and smile. I am just rinsing off when I feel hands on my belly. I smile to myself, knowing that Kaleb has joined me in the shower. I feel him kiss my neck and nip at my mark. I gasp when he does this.
“Are you really happy about this?” I ask quietly.
