Chapter 49

Scott's POV

One Month Later

Sitting in the room waiting on the doctor to come in, I looked around at all the posters on the wall not having a clue what any of them meant.

Some had full pictures of people and the muscles and tissues explaining where certain parts of the body were. Others had different body parts that I had no clue what they were and I wasn't going to try and guess.

I picked up this huge medal pair of scissor looking things. There were two of them sitting on the counter next to me.

"You don't want to touch that!" Brooklyn said and I looked over at her where she sat on the small table-like bed.

"Why?" I asked her.

"This is also a D & C Clinic, I'm sure they didn't mean to leave those out but you shouldn't touch those, they may not be sterile!" My brows pinched together. I knew nothing about women doctors.

She sighed. "I had to come here after I had my miscarriage. Because of how far along I was I had to have a D & C!" She mumbled quietly.

I looked at her, then at the device in my hand, then at her belly that was slightly raised, then back at the device. I instantly set it back down and shuttered.

"So, do you want to know what it is?" I asked her my heart pumping a little faster with excitement. I wanted to know what we were having so we could decorate the nursery.

She shrugged her shoulders. "Mom told me her vision of me with a little girl in the future never changed. So I think it's a girl, but if it isn't I'll be fine with that." I frowned at her. Her tone had no emotion in it, I was worried about her not wanting it now.

If she was like this now? How would she be after the baby was born?

"Brooklyn?" She looked up from her phone, I opened my mouth to ask her my question but the doctor walked in.

"Good morning Mrs Dale! How are we today?" I bit back a growl. I couldn't wait until her divorce was finalized. I could also feel that it bothered Brooklyn anytime someone would use her married name but she just smiled at the woman.

"I'm alright!" She told her. The doctor sat down on her stool and fiddled with her equipment, she picked up the tube of gel and Brooklyn lifted her shirt up for her so she could apply it.

After she put the gel on her belly she picked up her wand and pressed a few buttons on her computer before she placed it on Brooklyn's stomach. I moved my chair closer and Brooklyn looks over at me, I can hear her heartrate and it is fast. She's nervous, but on the outside she looks calm and collected.

The sound of a really quick heartbeat made both of us look over at the doctor. I leaned closer again so I would not miss anything.

"The fetus is mesuring bigger than it is supposed to!" The doctor muttered while writing something down in her notes. I smile at her comment, that means it isn't Ryan's baby. I reach up and grab Brooklyn's hand giving it a light swueeze and she returns it but then let's my hand go.

"Can you tell us what it is?" Brooklyn asked her. I looked up at her a littled shocked because I didn't think she cared what it was. She just said she didn't.

Her doctor moved the wand around until she found the perfect angle. "Well congrats. You're both having a girl!" The doctor smiled and so did I.

After a few celebratory dances in my head the doctor spoke up again. "Are you sure you gave me the right conception date?" She asked Brooklyn, I glanced at her as she looked away from her and began playing with her fingers.

"I'm pretty positive of the day it happened!" Brooklyn mumbled.

The doctor looked over at me, and I felt the link open up. "What about you? Can you clarify a date for me?" I was confused for a second, then she was where I was at. She also didn't think the baby belonged to some human with how fast the baby os growing.

"For a Lycan the pregnancy is much shorter as you already know." She nodded her head at me. "We were together everyday for days up until he showed up!" I said and then looked at Brooklyn who was still playing with her fingers.

Her doctor here was a very great doctor. And she was empathetic too. She wasn't a werewolf, but a witch who had a werewolf mate, her powers are why she can mind-link us. It's one of her gifts, she can link anyon3 even if she isn't apart of the pack.

She had a few other powers and would make potions and mix it into some power form and make it into a pill by using a spell and give some of the women here the medication that was safe to take that wouldn't harm their baby.

Her doctor did a couple more more things then printed out the ultrasound pictures. She held them out to Brooklyn but she just turned her head away from her, not wanting to take them. She sighed and placed them on her lap instead.

"Alright, since you are moving along faster than expected Brooke. I want to give you this for fatigue." She pulled out her little perscription pad and began writing on it. When she was done she got up and grabbed a few napkins and wiped the gel off of Brooklyn's belly.

She then grabbed a blood lressure cuff and wrapped it around her upper arm and removed her stethoscope from around her neck and placed he two points in her ears and the other at the bend of her arm as she pumped the cuff.

When she was finished she reamoved the stethoscope and placed it around her neck again. "You blood pressure is a little elevated. I want to keep an eye on that too." She told us as she removed the blood pressure cuff from her arm.

"But I feel fine!" Brooklyn told her and pulled her shirt down.

"Well it isn't too high, only a little. That's why I want to keep an eye on it." Brooklyn nodded her head. Her doctor picked up her perscription pad again and ripped off the first sheet then held it out to her, she took it then looked at it.

"I want to see you again in two weeks." She said then made her way to the door, opened it and walked out.

I grabbed the ultrasound photos from her lap and smiled as I looked at them, I traced a picture with a finger then brought it to my lips and kissed it.

Brooklyn got up from the bed and I stood up, she grabbed her handbag and threw it over her shoulder as we walked out of the room. I put the pictures in my jacket pocket as I follow her to check out.

**********

About an hour later we were sitting at a small bistro outside eating a nice breakfast. I had waffles and a nice cup of coffee while she had simple fried eggs and toast.

"How is your food?" I asked looking at her plate. It was still nearly full, but I was used to that. She'll want something then once she gets the scent of it, appetite gone. She ate more when she was pregnant with her first, this one hardly nothing.

"Yeah, it's really good. I have just lost my will to eat it." After using her fork to take another small bite she finally gave up on wanting to pretend and pushed the plate away.

"You don't have to sit there next time you aren't hungry. If the scent of it is too much tell me and I'll switch with you or something?" I told her this even at home. She still wouldn't tell me even then.

"Thank you, but I'd rather one of us be hungry than both of us." She said and picked up her orange juice and took a sip.

"Miss ma'am! I'll eat worms if you asked me too, so...do you want these waffle or not?" I asked her and she looked at me then down at my plate. I smirked when I heard her stomach grumble.

I first handed her the butter and syrup then picked up her plate and pushed her mine. "I would rather eat your food anyways." She gave me a small smile and i was happy at the progress.

Brooklyn reached over and took my fork from me, then placed hers on the plate I now had. I looked at her a little shocked that she just stole my silverware and showed no shame.

She took a bite of a waffle and I watched as her eyes closed. I nodded to myself, I would now let her order first and work around it with something else I knew she liked to eat. Things that I knew she used to take from me and I never thought anything of it until now.

"I have a therapy appointment today too." She nibbled on the piece that was on her fork.

"Alright, what time?" I asked her and began eating.

She looked at her phone then went back to her food as she answered me. "It's still early, we can hang around town for a while before I have to be there."

"Alright, want to walk around the market then, it's right here." I looked around at all the people that were walking around the small area here in town.

"Sounds good. I wanted to get some chamomile." I chewed my bite of food as I looked at her. She don't sleep and she has tried everything to get some amount of sleep. Everything that was natural and didn't harm the baby that is.

"The lavender didn't work?" I asked her and she shook her head. I took a sip of my coffee and looked at her over the rip of the cup.

"Stop looking at me like that!" Brooklyn muttered, I smiled behind my cup before placing it back down onn the table.

"I'm only worried, Brooke."

"I know you are. That's why I am comfortable around you." I thought she was always comfortable with me. "If the chamomile don't work, can I ask you a favor?" She asked me and I scrunched my brows.

"You don't even need to ask." I told her and she nodded her head subtlety.

"Could you lay with me? I haven't had a good night's sleep since you last came in the room." I set my fork down. I've offered to lay with her but she wouldn't let me near her at night. I think it just made her think I wanted something from her, all I really wanted was to make her feel better.

Before I could give her my answer she quickly changed the subject. "Also, we have to go downtown. I still have to replace the tv you broke and put mine back in the bedroom." I narrowed my eyes at her.

"I told you that I would get a new tv for the living room. Why do you keep doing that when I offer to replace the things I've broken?" I asked her. She did that with the door too, had it fixed a few days after I had broken it even though i was trying to find one more sturdy. But I will say that whoever fixed it did a damn good job too, cant tell it was e er broke to begin with, and they replaced the frame and the hinges.

"Because that's what I did when I was with, Ryan. I guess it's what I am used to doing. Every time he broke something I was expected to replace it." She shrugged her shoulders. I've been trying really hard, even before Ryan kidnapped her to try and get her to work on how she is supposed to be treated in a real relationship.

I mean she sees how her mom is treated, and how Baliey and her aunts are treated by their husbands and mates. The way Ryan did her was rare yes, but it was what I fully believe based on whatever curse was placed on that bloodline. Because mates are aupposed to love and protect each other, not hurt them the way that family did their loved ones.

"Amoureux, could I sit with you durring your therapy session today?" I asked her taking a sip of my drink then leaned back in my seat while still holding the mug. I've asked her several times to sit in with her but she didn't want me to hear anything that she spoke about, said that I would be hurt by the things she said of I was in there with her.

She's mentioned, while half asleep I may add. That her therapist has asked her to let me sit in and have a couples session but she didn't want one. I was almost at the point of forcing her to let me go in by commanding her, but without Zena around and her being pregnant I may hirt her if I tried.

She was wolfless. Nobody could link her anymore due to her wolf side going dormant.

"No!" She said.

I narrowed myeyes slightly and gritted my teeth. "Please elaborate? Why not, Brooklyn? Because you're afriad you'll hurt my feelings?" I asked her harshly and she closed her eyes. All I did was ask her the same thing she has told me many times the reason why I couldn't go in.

"Not here, Scott!" She snapped at me and pushed herself up from her seat. "I was in a good mood before you had to start with me about this again!" Brooklyn told me she grabbed her purse and before I could blink she threw some money on the table and walked away from me.
