“He’s legs are injured but the doctors are confident they’ll heal in a few weeks,” He informs me.
“Good, he’ll be fine,” I croak, lying back in bed, and tears well my eyes again.
“Do you want to see him?”
“No,”
My emotions are a mess and I don’t want to see anyone but my mate right now.
“When am I leaving?” I ask.
“Tonight,”
I squint my eyes in confusion, why are we leaving at night?
“Well, there is a massive crowd waiting for you outside. People were concerned and news spread that you were here,” He informs me. I didn’t know that they cared so much.
“Baby the hospital is full of flowers and balloons, others were even sending pastries, snacks, and jewelry for you,”
Leondre tells me everything I’ve missed these two days, I’m surprised that so many people are sent away from here because they want to see me. He grabs my hand and kisses it softly
“To them, you’ll symbol of hope that supernaturals don’t have because of the abrupt fights that don’t guarantee survival. Within a year of being the official Luna Queen of Lycans, you’ve calmed so many issues amongst the packs and urged them to work together for a better future, a future of love and hope. You give them hope,” He kisses my hand again and a stray tear escapes my eyes.
“When are you shaving off that beard?” I ask, caressing the spikey beard. He chuckles
“You can shave it off whenever you want,”
Leondre looks at me seriously,
“I’m so sorry, Allie,”
“For what?”
“For not protecting you and our baby, you should have been my priority at that moment and I didn’t even see you go back in that lobby, it’s my fault,”
“No, Leon listen, don’t DARE blame yourself for this, ever! ” I growl. I sit straight and cup his face, “I’m strong, I’ll heal,”
I assure him, I try to smile but tears pour down my face again. I won’t heal, I’m not alright and I don’t see the point to eat or even breathing right now, fear tugged my heart, and unanswered questions swam in my head, what if I’m unable to bear a child? Did they die because I wasn’t strong enough? Will I lose the next one? Why did the goddess allow this, I was losing faith in her.
I didn’t share those thoughts with Leondre. I don’t want him worrying about me. We have so much to do and catching Amacus is my main goal. I will make him pay for this hopefully it will bring me some solace.
Arya’s POV
I was looking at the first baby in awe, he was so cute and pink. Jacob was at a loss for words as he smiled, holding his baby. My eyes went back to Rosario, she was exhausted as she has been pushing out the babies for hours.
“Okay, let’s just push the little one out,” Says Doctor Riacco. She goes back to the position and I stroke her hair, she’s holding my hand so tightly, I can see the fear in her gaze. She starts to force out the last baby and soon, another cry is heard throughout the room.
“Oh, it’s another boy,” The doctor announces, shock grazing his face. I glance at Jacob and he is smiling still, they were told that it will be a girl and a boy. The nurse quickly cleans him and hands her to her mother, again Rosario places him on her chest and places a kiss on top of his little head.
“Oh no, Honey! Honey! I think we have another .. one,” Mrs. Riacco calls, amused. A huge smile tugged on her lips. My eyes dart between Rosa and Jacob, and their expressions show shock.
“Three?” They say in unison.
“Alright Rosario, I need you to give it one more push,”
I could tell that strength was leaving Rosario. She’s not a full Lycan yet has to birth three Lycan Alpha blood pups! That is a strong woman. Another hour goes by, and we hear the cries of the baby,
“It’s a girl,”
“YES!” Screams Jacob, making everyone in the room turn to him. He smiles in embarrassment and opens his mouth to speak but doesn’t. He did want a girl. He rushes towards his daughter and holds her kindly to him before showing her to Rosario,
“Hi, little sweet Rose,” She faintly smile at her daughter. Like she did the others, she kisses the precious bundle of joy while I take the pictures.
The baby is the prettiest girl in the world with black hair and big chocolate eyes like her mother. The doctors immediately start to help Rosario
“I’m so tired,” She mutters, I nod and kiss her forehead
“You did well,”
“Yes, I did. You will be there for them, right, Arya?” She asks, breathlessly. The beeping around her is getting louder and the doctors are moving around. Noticing this, Jacob gives the child to a midwife, and holds Rosa’s hand, he smiles at her and kisses her
“They shall receive plenty of love and I will speak to them about you, You shall never be forgotten, Rosario,”
“And I shall always watch over you guys, tell my brother that I’m sorry for not staying longer as I promised,” She says with a kind of smile only she has.
“Her blood pressure is rising!”
“Doctor, she’s losing too much blood!”
Tears welled in my eyes and I let them fall, she’s dying, she’s dying. Oh, goddess.
Rosario takes one deep breath and her eyes close.
“Time of death; 02: 09 am,” A nurse says. I hug my mate from behind as he holds Rosario. The doctors gave us this time and no one spoke for a long time, I don’t think it was planned but the babies all burst out crying at once.
“Goodbye my friend,” I whisper, kissing her head. Memories of our first encounter dawns on me, I hated her because I thought she and my mate were lovers, and the second time, she approached me, to assure me that nothing was going on between her and Jacob. After that, she’d appear at my workplace to ask if we can hang out since she was always bored at home alone or call me as though we have been a long time best friends.
Rosario was sassy in a cute way and it was hard to stay mad at her for any mean comment she made, also, people just gave her stuff when we go places.
