Chapter 59

**Cole**

I can’t believe it I am going to be a dad. Hearing those heartbeats was the most amazing sound in the world. I know that is important that I have kids seeing as I am the Alpha. It is important that I reproduce so that my heir will be the next alpha. Well if it is a boy.

I am hoping that it is a boy. Seeing as we are having two babies if they are boys the older one would be alpha. The younger the beta. This is just how it work. I still can not believe my beautiful mate is going to be a mother.

I know she will be amazing at it. She is kind and I know she will be amazing at this. I can not wait to see her swollen belly. She is gorgeous and I love her. To me she has just given me the most amazing gift one could give someone.

**Winter**

Holly Goddess. That was the heartbeat. I cannot believe I am pregnant. I have not one baby but two. It must run in the family. I know James and Sasha have twin girls. And Jade, Coles mother told me that she had a twin. So it must run in the family I am guessing.

“So do you have any questions?” Doctor Harold asked. “Umm yea I have a few.” in truth I had a million different questions running through my head. “When will we know the gender? And when am I due. Also is everything look okay is there anything I will need to be doing to keep these pups safe.” honestly the questions were endless.

“Well as you probably know we as werewolf's are only pregnant for about six months. You are three weeks pregnant. So, you have about 21 weeks left. As for the gender we will know when you hit 6 weeks. Also, you cannot shift while pregnant that will cause for loss of pregnancy. This is important and absolute.” Doctor said.

Did I hear that right, I cannot shift? He said it would terminate the pregnancy. But I shifted this morning, and nothing happened. Maybe I should bring this up. “Umm, Doctor Harold I shifted this morning and I feel fine. No bleeding or anything. Also, it wasn’t so long ago I was kidnapped, and nothing happened.” I told him.

He looked at me with shock and horror across his face. I looked over at my mate, his face was that of a quizzical expression. “I do not know what to tell you Luna. You should be miscarrying if you shifted this morning. I don’t know if this is some fluke or something? I would advise you not do to that again unless your life is in danger.”

If that is what he advised I would hold to his instructions. I cannot jeopardize the health of my pups. What would this mean for training the females. If I could not shift surely, I could get someone to help me train them. Was shifting the only thing I should not be doing.

“Is shifting the only thing I should avoid doing?” I asked. “I would advise you not to go around getting beat up or anything like that, but I have heard rumors that even in human form you can handle yourself. Without any injury so you should be fine. Just don’t get kidnapped again either.” he said in a joking tone.

Soon after we finished up, he left Cole and I alone to get ourselves together before we left the med center. “Are you happy?” I asked Cole. I saw his smile growing as I finished asking him the question. “I am so happy. Thank you for giving me children. And not just me but the pack is going to go ballistic. You are giving them a future and I couldn’t be happier or prouder.” he moved his hands and patted my stomach.

Well, I thought to myself. I am giving them a future if they were boys. If they were girls will Cole still be happy. I mean maybe it is a boy and girl. Then the pack would welcome an Alpha to be. I wondered what would happen if they were both boys. I am guessing the older would be the alpha. Who knows, because I sure as hell don’t. I can figure all that out in three weeks when we know the gender.

“Can we go home. I know you still want to eat, and I want too. But not fried chicken I'll settle for a sandwich with roast beef and cheese.” he smiled, and we arranged for a follow up appointment in another three weeks. As we got home Cole had Marie make me my sandwich and we sat down to eat together.

We ate not much talking before we both agreed to go to our offices and finish up work for the day. I knew I still planned on training the females. Even if I was pregnant. That ambition was not going to fall at the waist side. The females needed to be able to defend themselves. I just would have to recruit someone to help training while in wolf form.

But before that even happened, they need to be more comfortable shifting. I think I will focus on having them train in their human form first. Maybe warm them up with being in wolf form and then move on to shifting once they are comfortable and trained well in human form. A lot needs to be done and I am up for it.

Now the only problem I had was how to keep Athena comfortable. I know she is going to get super angry not being able to run. But she will agree knowing it is best for the pups. I am sure of that. After all she is wise, she would not do anything to hurt our pups. I looked at the picture of my parents on my desk.

I really wish they were here now. I would love to have their guidance through this pregnancy and raising of children. I wish they would have the ability to meet their grandkids. It just is not possible, I guess. Still, I can dream. I need to remember to thank the Moon Goddess for her blessing though. I will do that tonight when I say my prayers. Just thinking about the Goddess and the gifts she has given me has opened my mind to a whole other set of thoughts.
