Xander and Kyle grinned with pride.

“Fucking awesome,” Kyle said. “You should see the new kitchen! Another week or so of painting and final touches and I think we can look at moving in.”

She laughed and her eyes lit up. “Really? I can’t wait to see it... but, I have a doctor’s appointment today in town. For the baby. Do any of you want to come with me?”

I glanced at the wolves, both of whom turned gray at her words. They seemed frozen, so I spoke up for all of us.

“A doctor, sweetheart?” I asked. “Why? Is something wrong?”

Why else would she need a doctor?

“Oh no.” She shook her head. “But Mikaela said they could do a sonogram to see the baby and look at the heartbeat and everything. And I’d like to do that.”

My heart rate settled. Nothing wrong, then. A sonogram was probably something all of us needed to see.

“I’d like to come,” I said, not waiting for the others to respond.

“Me too,” Kyle added.

I glanced at Xander, whose blue eyes were burning yellow. “Hey, future Alpha. You wanna join us and see our baby?”

Xander nodded slowly and I chuckled to myself. It was clear he couldn’t speak because he was too busy trying to control his wolf. He was as excited and scared as Kyle and me.

Even though I had every confidence that Monique would make it through this pregnancy and birth, Max’s words still haunted all of us.

“Well, looks like we’re taking the day off.” I glanced over at our beautiful mate. Her hair was shining with gold this morning, setting off the red hues like a sunset. “How are you feeling today, sweetheart?”

“So much better,” she gushed, taking another bite of her toasted sandwich. “Now that I’m past twelve weeks it seems to have made all the difference. I have an appetite again.” She waved the sandwich about. “Obviously!”

The wolves’ eyes lit up. It had been weeks since we’d made love to our mate. She’d been so unwell and we’d been working around the clock to get the house done.

“Ah... so...” I shot her a suggestive grin. “How long do we have before the appointment?” I slid my hand over her thigh.

She jumped a little, as if unused to the touch. But then she lay her hand atop mine, keeping my fingers where they were. “A couple of hours. Why?”

I smiled even wider. “Think you might want to come back to bed with us for a while?”

“Oh yes. Please.” Then she stared at each of us in turn, her lips pulling down. “I wasn’t sure if you were all turned off by the pregnancy, or...”

“Hellno,” growled Xander, standing up, unzipping his jeans and opening the placket to show Monique exactly how strongly he desired her. “The abstinence has been killing me! I’ve been dying for you, beautiful.”

After a quick glance, I stared at Monique’s face, because Xander’s cock wasn’t exactly doing it for me.

It was obviously doing it for our woman, though, andthat’swhat turned me on. Her lips parted and her pupils dilated until they were so large it was hard to see where the pupil ended and the blue purple of her irises kicked in.

“Let’s go,” I said, standing up and holding out my hand to her.

Xander quickly shrugged out of the rest of his clothes and walked over to grab Monique up in his arms, then he charged to the bedroom.

I chuckled as I glanced at Kyle, whose expression was filled with need. We’d all been missing our woman intensely. “And I thought this was my idea.”

He laughed. “Yeah, well, Xander does like to take charge.”

Monique squealed from the bedroom and a shot of lust hit me right between the legs. “We better get in there before he completely takes over.”

“Yep.”

We raced each other into the large bedroom, made bigger using my magic twice over during the past weeks of living here. We needed the space with four of us, and I was slowly growing and holding more power as time went on.
