Chapter 49

Until he decided to go and get married to that thing living in his house. How dare he insult me in such a way, he beat me and almost killed me in front of the whole pack because of her. My fingers tighten up into fists. That woman living in Aiden's house got to be the chosen Luna. It was supposed to be me in that house, me sleeping next to Aiden and me who deserved to there because I was there first.

"Claire, you are bleeding" Antony says. I look to where his gaze is pointed, my palms. They were shredded from my long fingernails. I simply look and scoff. " You were right, I should wait for the bitch to give birth.

Bella

I feel another sharp pain in my lower tummy and another one and another one. They were getting so intense. And then my water broke. No. it was happening now, I was having my babies now. I was all alone in this empty house. I felt too weak to make it to a midwife. I was going to have to do this alone.

It would have been easier if I had then in my werewolf form but I was too weak to transform. I was going to have werewolf babies in my human form. Yes I could survive the child birth, unlike a human woman. Humans had weak bodies to support a were baby. The mass of a were baby is much bigger than a human baby, a were baby also grows faster than normal in its early years.

This is what Aiden and I have been training for. He is the one who wanted so bad to bring our babies into the world but I can't be thinking of a man who decides to abandon his pregnant wife. If I was not quick enough I was going to have them on this kitchen floor. I don't think I would have the strength to clean up the mess after.

As fast as I can, I make my way to the bedroom the then the bathroom. I paddle to the tub that became therapy for me when Aiden would hold and massage me. I have to keep reminding myself not to stray in the thought department. I had to be sane to deliver these pups safely.

I fill up the tub with warm water, warm enough to sting a bit but not too warm as to burn my little precious pups. I quickly fetch a lot of towels and pile then up beside the tub. I paddle all the way to the kitchen to get me a sharp knife. Making my way to my room, I stop by the nursery.

Something warm settles in my chest. "This is it babies, this is the time we have been waiting for." I speak to no one in particular. More sharp pains and I am reminded that I have no time to daydream.

Once in the bathroom again I strip the robe I had put on earlier after Aiden had abruptly left me to this fate. I close of the faucets and dip myself in. I would have enjoyed the water only if I was not feeling such pain in my stomach or if I wasn't trying to drown my babies because I lost focus.

This time there was no spacing in between the pain and it was just a huge mass of pain. I knew I had to start pushing and fast before I suffocate the pups, but I couldn't help it but feel like I was being torn apart in half. If these kids weren't the death of me, I was going to be the death of Aiden.

He can't just leave me alone to go through this, alone. He had it coming. I just had to concentrate on not dying in the meantime. Pushing as much as I could, I felt hopeless. The little things seemed to be stubborn about coming out but I kept on pushing.

The second came out not long after the first. Looking at my babies made tears rise up to my eyes. In the last 24 hours I have cried so much it is a wonder I still have any. "My babies" I whisper to them "Mamma loves you."

I wash them and myself and remove us from the rapidly cooling water. Swath us in a lot of blankets and go to bed in the hopes that Aiden will be back soon to find out his surprise.
