“No life is worth living without you. You're the only thing worth living for,” he tells her, and she breaks down, shaking her head. Soyer pries the scalpel from her hand, tossing it aside and clutching her to him. He holds her tightly, rocking her back and forth as she cries into his shoulder. He whispers comforting words, and seeing he doesn't need help, we back away when he grunts. He takes a step back, his hand clutching her hair.
“That's my girl,” he says, and I realize she's feeding off him. He clutches her hair, and Marco moves in case he must intervene. Soyer shakes his head, letting us know he can handle her, and we pull the door shut.
Moving toward Elena's room, Michelle peers out the door. “Is she okay?”
“She'll be fine,” I tell her, stepping past her to check on my mate. Luke has fallen asleep in a chair. Eli is passed out on the couch, both my boys lying on his chest.
“Any change?” I ask Michelle.
“No, but the doctor just went off to get her lab results,” Michelle tells me as I sweep Elena's hair from her beautiful face. Moments later, the doctor comes in with a clipboard in hand, wearing a white lab coat.
“Anything?” I ask, and he nods slowly.
“It appears Marco's blood healed her lung and the graze on her heart.” He tells us, and I nod, knowing that. “When you started CPR, you kept her heart pumping for long enough, but now we're faced with another problem.”
“Elena's body is in shock. Her body is trying to reject his blood.”
“So, what does that mean?” I ask.
“It's perfectly normal, Alpha. Her body recognizes something foreign is in her system, so it has shut down to protect itself. We've seen it before. Its natural bodily instinct is to stop his blood from reaching the placenta and altering DNA.” I blink at him.
“Placenta?” I ask, thinking I misheard, and Michelle's hands cup her mouth in shock.
“Yes, Alpha. Luna is pregnant.” I shake my head.
“No, we have baby boys?” the doctor's brows furrowed.
“Well, yes. But that doesn't mean she can't fall pregnant. In fact, she is actually more fertile after a successful pregnancy,” Doc explains. Marco clamps a hand on my shoulder, and I am grateful because I don't know if I want to faint in shock or jump with joy.
“We'll schedule an ultrasound in a few days. For now, we want to keep an eye on her levels.” Doc explains before walking out.
Chapter Eighty-Five
Elena
13 weeks Later.
“No, I don't want to go in there,” I tell Axton as I stare up at the hospital. How could I be pregnant? What the heck am I going to do with three babies?
“Lena…” Axton groans frustrated. I have missed the last two appointments, some part of my brain conjuring up that as long as I don't have the ultrasound as proof, I can pretend I'm not pregnant. I'm too busy with the boys and Luke. Then there is work. Axton sighs and gets out of the car, I watch him walk around to my side, but before he opens up the door, I shove the lock down.
“Elena…” I ignore him, turning to the front and staring out the windshield.
“No, I am not going. Let's just go home,” I tell him, folding my arms across my chest. He digs in his pocket, unlocking the doors, and I push the lock down again.
“You are being a brat!”
“And you are being a jerk! I don't wanna get fat and push a watermelon out of my coochie. You go drink a gallon of water and have someone squeeze your bladder if you want a baby so bad.” I tell him, and Axton facepalms himself.
“Please get out of the car!” he groans, unlocking the car again. He yanks on the door handle, but I press the lock just in time.
“One.....” he counts, and I raise an eyebrow, knowing he ain't going to do shit.
“Two… Don't make me bring Khan forward!” he snaps at me.
“Three!… That's it. You're in for it now.” he growls, and I roll my eyes. His entire body shudders when he suddenly taps on the window again, and I look out to see his eyes pitch black, and Khan has come forward.
“Elena?” he breathes.
