Erica’s POV

The sound of arguing wakes me up from my sleep. My eyes flutter open and I see my mates standing around the poor doctor, refusing to leave the room.

“Alphas,” the doctor pleads with them. “You have got to give us space to work. We have to make sure that the baby is okay.”

My eyes grow wide and I sit up in the bed in shock. “Did someone say baby?” The words get caught in my throat as I try to speak.

The brothers turn to look at me with worried looks on their faces. Ace scratches the back of his neck awkwardly and he pushes past the doctor to get to my side.

“Hey, Little Fox,” he says with an odd tone in his voice. “You are supposed to be resting.”

“What is going on?” I ask ignoring Ace’s attempt to distract me.

The doctor stands on his tiptoes and tries to look over the shoulders of my mates. “I need to speak to the Luna alone,” the doctor says loudly.

“Anything you need to say you can say in front of us,” Bryce says with his arms crossed over his chest, blocking the doctor from coming to my side.

“Boys,” I say gently. “Let the doctor speak to me.”

Ace, Bryce, and Chris grumble under their breaths as they file out of my hospital room. They all stand right outside my hospital door. Each one with their arms crossed over their chests and an identical scowl written on their faces.

The doctor shakes his head in frustration and closes the door to my hospital room. He takes in a sharp breath before he begins to speak.

“Luna,” he says softly. “When was the last time that you had your period?”

My heart begins to pound in my chest. I try to remember the last time I had my period and I cannot remember. I try to tell the doctor but I cannot find my voice.

Not waiting for me to respond the doctor continues to speak. “We got some of your bloodwork back. We run a routine pregnancy test on all she-wolves of age…”

“Are you saying that I am pregnant?” I finally find my voice and interrupt the doctor.

“I am,” the doctor says with a serious look on his face.

Suddenly, my stomach begins to churn and I think I am going to be sick. The room feels too hot and it begins to spin. As if on cue, the doctor hands me a bucket and I empty the contents of my stomach.

The boys rush back into my hospital room and immediately surround my bed. Ace pulls back my hair while I continue to puke. While Bryce and Chris rub my back and try to tell me that everything will be okay.

“Luna, we need to do an ultrasound so we can determine how far along you are,” the doctor tells us.

Leaning back in on the hospital bed, I wipe the vomit from the corners of my mouth. My heart still feels like it is going to beat out of my chest. The doctor doesn’t bother to wait for me to say okay, he simply leaves the room and returns with an ultrasound machine.

“Excuse me,” the doctor says as he tries to push past Bryce to make it to my side.

As the doctor rolls up the hem of my shirt, the three brothers growl at the same time, and it vibrates the machinery in the room.

“Boys,” I chastise them. “He needs to get to my stomach.”

“Thank you, Luna,” the doctor says with a worried look on his face. I can tell that he feels uncomfortable in the presence of all three of my mates.

Busying himself with setting up the ultrasound machine, the doctor does his best to ignore the Alpha auras that are filling the room. I know that my nerves are probably adding to the chaos of feelings in this room.

The doctor squirts some warm jelly on my stomach and I take in a deep breath and let it out slowly. This is the moment of truth.

The room falls silent as the doctor presses the ultrasound wand to my stomach. The doctor swirls the wand around on my stomach until he pauses on my stomach He presses a few buttons on the machine and a whooshing sound fills the room. I immediately know what that sound is. It is the sound of my baby’s heartbeat.

Tears begin to stream down my face at the sound of the heartbeat filling the room. “Oh my Goddess,” I gasp out. “I am pregnant.”

A small smirk spreads across the doctor’s lips. He turns the screen toward us and points to a little alien shape on the screen.

“Do you see this right here?” The doctor smiles. “This is your baby. By werewolf standards, you are about two months along. But a werewolf pregnancy is only about six months long. So you can expect to start showing at any time now.”

Before I have a good chance to look at the screen, the brothers crowd around it talking amongst themselves.

“It’s a boy,” Chris says proudly.

“No, no. It is a girl,” Bryce says with a smile on his face.

I watch as Ace rolls his eyes at his brothers. “It is too early to tell,” Ace chimes in being the voice of reason.

I clear my throat loudly. “Can I please see my baby?” I ask with a tone of annoyance.

Three pairs of blue eyes look at me with guilt in their eyes. They all move away from the ultrasound screen, so I can see the little baby that is dancing on the screen. I stare at the screen in disbelief. There is a life growing inside of me.

The doctor prints out a few different pictures for us and then wipes the jelly off of my belly. “I will give you four a few moments alone,” the doctor says.

“Wait,” I call out after the doctor. The doctor turns around and waits for me to speak. “Is this why I passed out?”

The doctor nods his head shortly. “There isn’t much known about white wolves and pregnancies,” he begins, “You will have to make sure that you are getting enough sleep and enough to eat, to make sure that this doesn’t happen again.”

“Could it be because my emotions got too out of control?” I ask shyly.

The doctor lets out a sigh. “That is also a possibility. I suggest that you try to keep yourself as calm as you can throughout the pregnancy as well. Stress on you is stress on the baby.”
