POV Beta Ian

as I watched my beautiful mate change from a healthy and fit young woman to a weak, sickly person I began to fear the worst. I garnered the assistance of both our mothers. They were already were constant visitors to the packhouse. They were Beta and Gamma females who were close to the elder Luna. Between the threewlderly women , they helped me to take care of my mate.

I cannot forget the panic I was in when I could not find her. She was exhausted after throwing up. In her search for something to wear in the closet, she passed out. I thought she died she was lay limp and listless. She seemed to barely breathe. I placed my hand to her nostril to see if she was ok. Her warm breath told me she was just passed out. I lay her on the bed rubbing her hands and feet when she stirred I was relieved.

I drew her a bath and lifted her to the bathroom, placed her in the tub then behind her in the warm water. She woke up while I was washing her. I enjoy looking at her swollen belly. Moving from a flat six-pack abs to a little pouch. She is so cute and adorable when she is like this. After bath, I wrapped her in a towel and dried her, then placed her on the bed. She pulled me to her. Even though she was ill, her appetite for sex never diminished. I was scared at first to make love to her but the gynaecologist promised pregnancy was not an illness and I could make out with my mate as much as I wanted but I had to be gentle. Today I just want to hold her to reassure me she was safe. I hugged her until she was asleep. I dialed her mom and asked her to take care of her.

That was when I left for the meeting. My Alpha mind linked me to say he was ready for the meeting and I told him what happened. He told me he would stagger the meeting. Alpha Brian is my best friend and the best Alpha a Beta could ever work with.
