The Alpha's Surprised Mate (Book #1 of Silver Moon Series) novel Chapter 41

Forty-One: Double Trouble Part 2

Kylani

Unfortunately, no matter how careful Phantom was trying to be, it was just too much. The contractions were starting to get closer together and more intense. I finally had to have him set me down, and I curled up in a ball by a tree. I am so scared that something bad is going to happen out here. I really don't want to give birth to my daughter out in the forest. I hear footsteps, and I hope it's not a fucking rogue. It can’t be. Phantom is still with, and he wouldn’t let some rabid wolf near me right now. I look up to see who it is because Phantom obviously knows them. I really can’t focus through my fucking tears.

“Oh Kylani, why are you out here and where is Kaleb?” The man asks.

I know that voice.

“Uncle Zeus?”I say through my tears.

“Yes Darlin, it's me. Come on let's get you to the hospital and to Kaleb.” He says and picks me up.

He starts walking, and I feel as if I might be ok now. As we get closer, I can hear voices coming toward us. They sounded panicked. Uncle Zeus stops walking as we break through the trees and into the clearing right before the hospital. A fucking contraction tears through my body, and I let out a scream. I JUST WANT KALEB! Is all I can think, and I start crying harder. I feel Uncle Zeus hand me to someone, and an instant wave of calm settles over me. That’s until the next contraction hits.

“Shh, it’s gonna be ok gorgeous. Let’s get you to the hospital and in a comfortable bed.” I hear Kaleb say.

“Kaleb?” I ask through my tears.

“Yeah, it’s me.” He says.

I can’t help but start sobbing. This is who I have wanted since the beginning. He turns around and carries me back to the hospital. I can hear Chris behind us talking to Uncle Zeus. We return to the hospital, and the doctor has me in the room next to Mykenzie. I hear her swearing about something and smile. At least I am not alone in my pain. The doctor checks me, and I am only five centimetres dilated. What the fuck? This has been going on forever. The doctor ordered the epidural, and I felt so much better within twenty minutes. I still feel pressure, but the pain is gone. I also don’t hear Mykenzie swearing anymore, so I am guessing she got an epidural too.

“Why were you out in the middle of the forest,” Kaleb asks.

I explained that I was out taking a walk around the training grounds because I was sick of being in the house. I told him I had just gotten on the path to the pond when the labour hit me out of nowhere. I explained that Phantom found me and tried to get me here, but the contractions were too strong, and he had to stop, and that’s when Uncle Zeus found me and got me to him.
