I hold Cash in my arms even though Axe doesn't want me doing too much. Axe opens the door for me and wraps his arm around me as we walk into the infirmary. When we're in the room, Axe holds Cash while Dr Cindy prepares the scan.

“Doctor, this is shocking. I keep getting bigger,” I say.

“Each pregnancy is different. Everything was healthy at your last appointment so let that put your mind at ease.” Dr Cindy spreads the jelly on my belly and uses the machine to find the baby.

“Mumma.” Cash reaches out for me.

That's right, Cash has started talking. He only says words he hears a lot. His first word was honey, which warmed our hearts. Axe calls me honey so much, it rubbed off on Cash.

“I know why you're blowing out.” I turn to Dr Cindy. “Alpha, Luna, you're having twins.”

“Oh my God,” I utter.

“Fuck.” Axe leans closer to the screen where Dr Cindy points out two peanut-shaped figures.

“Twins,” I gasp.

“Are you sure?” Axe asks.

“Yes.” Dr Cindy smiles.

“Is that going to cause problems for her? I want Elora's safety to be the number one priority.”

“Alpha, I understand your concern since her first birth but Elora is strong and healthy. Keep her environment positive and stress free and she can have a safe pregnancy.”

“Should she stay in bed?” Axe asks.

“She's only three months pregnant. I suggest doing light tasks but if it gets too much, make sure you get a lot of rest.”

We talk to Dr Cindy, asking everything we need to. She prints out a picture for us and we go home. We sit on the couch with Cash between us.

“I can't believe we're having twins,” I say.

“Neither can I.” Axe runs his hand through his hair. “I'll get a vasectomy, Elora.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes. Three babies is enough for me.”

“I love you.” I lean my head on his shoulder as Cash crawls around on top of us.

“I love you and anything you need, you tell me. I don't care if it's the middle of the night and you just need to be carried to the bathroom.”

“Thank you.”

“I don't know how I'm going to keep up with pack work with three babies.” He sighs.

“Dash... oh.” Dash is having a baby too. “Brian.”

“Brian just got married. It won't be long before he has a baby too.”

“I don't think so. Olly doesn't want children yet.”

“I guess I can get Jayceon to hel... shit, he just had a baby too. What the fuck? It's baby central here.”

“It is.” I chuckle and place my hand on my belly. Axe does the same and then Cash does too, making us smile. “Boys or girls?”

“Well I was hoping for another boy but now that it's twins, three boys sounds like hell imagining them as teenagers.”
