EPILOGUE
**Third POV**
Wyatt went into hyper-protective mode after Harper became pregnant. He watched her every move like a hawk.
"I feel like my freedom of movement is being violated," Harper complained, running her hand over her large belly and smiling mischievously at Wyatt from the mirror.
She was four months pregnant now, and only three weeks away from her due date. Her child would be a winter baby.
Harper turned around, feigning annoyance. "Did you hear what I said? I don't need a private nurse! I am a nurse myself!"
"I know you're a great nurse, honey. " Wyatt approached and put his arms around her. "But even the greatest nurse can't deliver a baby for herself. It's all for your safety."
Harper screwed up her face. "We already have five maids you've hired in the house. I have no privacy left."
Wyatt kissed Harper's forehead. "All I ask is that they check on you every hour to make sure you haven't fainted. I can't have you fainting in the bathroom again."
Harper couldn't really argue with Wyatt. She had experienced severe morning sickness throughout her pregnancy. Even now, the nausea hadn't completely subsided. The doctor said it was probably due to the strong hybrid baby in her belly.
Sofia had prepared a pile of witch-crafted potions for her, all colorful and vibrant. She seemed even more excited than Wyatt and Harper. Harper couldn't help but smile as she remembered how she'd broken the news of her pregnancy to Sofia.
A crazy grandma. Who'd have thought an over-excited witch could accidentally set her own house on fire?
Harper helped Wyatt straighten his tie. He touched her face gently. "I'll be back before lunch."
Harper nodded. "I got an email from the clinic; they confirmed today's antenatal checkup."
Wyatt had brought the best werewolf gynecologist from the East Coast, Dr. Mary. Harper didn't know what terms Wyatt had offered, but moving a medical practice from the East Coast to the West Coast sounded like a big deal.
Wyatt picked up his briefcase. "I hear your thoughts, puppy." He slapped Harper's backside playfully. "I promise I'm not abusing any power here. Mary has just opened a new private clinic in King City. Her patients on the East Coast haven't been affected."
Harper shrugged. The werewolf mind link was sometimes a double-edged sword, especially when it came to talking behind someone's back.

"The baby is developing perfectly," Dr. Mary said. "Look, he's yawning."
Wyatt and Harper shared a smile; it seemed the prenatal check had woken the little one up.
He stretched and yawned, and a tiny handprint appeared on Harper's tummy. Wyatt reached out to touch the mischievous little hand, but it quickly moved away.
Dr. Mary gave them some guidelines, especially about the baby's weight, which shouldn't increase too rapidly in the last few weeks. Wyatt was given a new prescription and a stack of checklists and took Harper home.
For Harper, just getting out of the house had left her feeling exhausted. She collapsed on the couch. "Look, Wyatt, I'm like a big spider now," Harper said, waving her arms and legs dramatically.
"Beautiful lady spider, would you like a hot bath?" Wyatt approached.
"If you allow me to take a nap in the bath," Harper purred lazily, batting her eyelashes.
Wyatt chuckled and scooped Harper into his arms. She rested all her weight on him, including her large belly.
As soon as Wyatt discovered that Harper was pregnant, he had the upstairs bathroom converted into a circular bathtub. He gently undressed her, making sure she was comfortable as he helped her into the warm water. Seeing that Harper was comfortable, he undressed himself and joined her in the tub.
He positioned himself behind Harper, trying to make her even more comfortable. Harper didn't hold back, enjoying the privileges of a wife to the full.
The water was the perfect temperature and Harper was completely relaxed. She felt the waves of water running over her body.
She tried to turn around and face Wyatt. But she underestimated the difficulty of the maneuver.
"Hold still, puppy." Wyatt grabbed her shoulders, his panting getting heavier and part of his body growing hard.
Harper felt it too. She turned her head with a wicked grin, "Do you like mummy's hot belly?"
Wyatt's hand went through Harper's armpit and he pinched her breast hard. "Naughty puppy."
Harper touched the stretch marks on her stomach, "I'm getting ugly, Wyatt."
Wyatt's hand covered Harper's stretch marks, stroking them as he placed a steady stream of kisses between Harper's neck, "You're amazingly beautiful."
"Would you still think so if I got fat and ugly?" Harper said.
Wyatt laughed and picked Harper up, spinning her around in a half circle, folding her legs between his so they were facing each other. He kissed Harper's chest as if in worship.
"You're the one for me forever, Harper Elliot. " Wyatt bit Harper's lip before releasing it, "If you don't mind, ma'am, I'm going to take a cold shower."
"Sure," Harper couldn't help but laugh.
Wyatt helped his wife out of the bath and dried her body and hair. Harper had inadvertently fallen asleep under his gentle move.
Looking at her peaceful sleeping face, Wyatt smiled softly and carried her back to bed. He kissed her on the forehead, "Good night, puppy."
Wyatt tucked Harper in and planted another soft kiss on Harper's tummy through the covers, "Good night, little one. We all look forward to having you in this world."

Five years later.
"Daddy, look, my airplane. This is my airplane." William was running around the room holding up his new toy airplane in the air.
As William's godfather, Steven has been responsible for almost all of William's toys as he has grown up. But William is a real troublemaker who can turn any complex toy into a pile of accessories in less than three days.
"William! Be careful not to smash your sister!" Harper removed the giant airplane toy that didn't match William's height.
It was Hannah's first birthday. But apparently, the other person who got a present was William.
Over the past few years, Wyatt has traveled to almost all the packs to establish more robust justice, education, and healthcare. He used the royal family's private property to speed up the process.
Harper had also completed her Master's degree in medicine and set up her own clinic. Things were moving in a better direction. Except for the year when they were once again blindsided by the arrival of their second child.
Hannah and William were very different.
William was almost a pure werewolf child. Hannah, on the other hand, was more of a witch. Her pale green eyes often revealed a hint of mystery. But she was still the sweetest child ever.
"Mummy! Hannah's talking, she's talking!" William shouted from the cot.
Harper and Wyatt came over and saw Hannah giggling in the cot. She was babbling, but Harper and Wyatt heard her words, "M-u-m! M-u-mmy!"
Harper laughed as she picked Hannah up and kissed her soft cheek.
"Me too! Me too! I want a kiss too, Mummy!" William jumped up and down like a clingy puppy.
"Sure, sweetheart." Harper couldn't help laughing and leaned down to give William a firm kiss on his forehead.
Wyatt gave all three of them a big hug from behind and said with a raised eyebrow, "Dear Mummy, looks like you missed someone."
Harper tickled the corners of her mouth with a smile and turned her head sideways to share a sweet kiss with Wyatt.
Their foreheads touched and they saw each other's eyes filled with laughter.
"I love you, puppy."
"I love you too."
