MAKAHI POV:, Hearing the girls crying. I took a deep breath with my eyes closed because I was still exhausted. “Daddy’s getting up now I know you’re hungry.” I said with my eyes still closed. “I feel like they’re saying you’re moving to slow.” My eyes flew open in shock. I lifted my head slowly, scared that I was dreaming but when I finally looked her way and looked into the most beautiful blue eyes that I didn’t know I missed like crazy. “Jilahni?” “Yea its me.” She said smiling. My heart felt let it was about to burst with emotions as tears fell from my eyes all I could do was stare. The babies letting out a loud cry. That snapped me out of my shock. Jilahni looked at the girls and then back at me. ” Both girls huh?” She said. Realizing she thought she was having a girl and boy not 2 girls., I smiled back at her. “Surprise.” I said as I picked up beah as Jilahni sat up reaching to pick upTru. I got up to get their bottles putting them in the warmer I went over to sit beside Jilahni who smiled up at me. I used my free hand to cup her cheek and I felt a jolt from our connection even stronger some how I couldn’t explain why I still have this connection to her. Could it be because of the twins who had stopped crying to watch us. I bent down to k**s her lips lightly but Jilahni used her free hand to grab me by the nap of my hair and deepen the k**s I let out a low needing growled before I forced myself to pull away and rested my head against hers. “We have to stop, you just woke up and I’m sure the doc will be against us going any further then this and not to mention we have 2 very hungry pups here. Do you want me to contact everyone they have been waiting for this day.” I asked. “No not right now I just want it to be just us for a little while if that’s ok with you.” She said with a smile. “That’s more then ok. I was really hoping you would say that. I have missed you so much baby I would have lost my mind if it wasn’t for these two right here they’ve been keeping me on my toes. They have also been waiting for their momma to open her beautiful eyes too.” The warmer beeped and I got both their bottles checked them before handing one to Jilahni and I put the other one next to beah’s mouth and as usual they both sniff before they greedily latch on to the n****e., Watching Jilahni with Tru, put a smile on my face I didn’t have to say anything Jilahni was a natural. I watched in awe as she bonded with Tru kissing her and talking to her. “What?” she asked when she caught me staring at her. “You’re a natural at this the first night I was a nervous wreck. Trying to feed them and changed them when I was alone.” I said laughing remembering the first night alone with the girls. “Well I had practice I use to babysit my aunts children during the summer they were like 6 weeks old.” She trailed off before asking. “How long have I been out?” “A little over a week. The girls are 10 days old.” I answered. “I missed their first week.” She said sadly as tears fell from her eyes and she hugged Tru kissing her apologizing for missing their first week of life. “Hey don’t do that. You have been through Alot and you made sure our pups were safe and healthy. You just needed to rest and you deserved every bit of it. So don’t beat yourself up . You’re awake now and they are just as happy as I am that you’re ok.” I said wiping the tears from her eyes., “OMG. It’s been 10 days did you name them. Please tell me you didn’t let Mina or Shawna name them.?” she asked wide eye full of panic. I laughed. “No they don’t have official names I gave them nicknames. I didn’t want to make anything official until you woke up. So we have been calling this little one beautiful Crystal aka beah and the little one you have we call her Trouble Crystal aka Tru because she is the one that gave us hell.” I removed beah’s bottle and I switched with Jilahni so she could bond with beah. We sat in comfortable silence as we fed, burp and changed both girls. I did have to call the doctor and let him know she was awake but informed him not to tell anyone else we wanted the rest of the night to ourselves we had decisions to make and plans to prepare., He was there in less then 5 minutes he must have shift to get here because he was sporting scrubs that only his staff wears. Coming through the doors he raced over to Jilahni and embraced her. I let out a growl that made him jump and look at me confused. “Hey stop that we were held hostage together and he protected me with his life you should be thanking him for keep me and our girls alive while we were held hostage and delivering them healthy and keeping me alive.” Jilahni said with emotion. I looked at the Doc and for the first time I saw his emotions written on his face he did everything he could to protect my 3 girls and I have never Thanked him or even asked him how he was.” Damn Sebastián I’m so sorry I never said thank you and never asked how you were and I’m truly sorry.” I said to him. “No thanks needed you are my alpha it was my honor to protect you future lu uh Alpha’s.” He said catching himself before he called Jilahni his luna although I didn’t mind I didn’t want to bring the subject of Summer and me marking her up right now., I just want to spend tonight with my 3 girls before we have to face the entire pack. He drew b***d from Jilahni and checked her to make sure everything was ok. Which it was, he ordered her to eat something to get her strength back he told her she wouldn’t be allowed to leave until she eats and can walk without assistance. He said it maybe a little rough since she has been basically in a coma for 10 days but he thinks she should be able to leave the day after tomorrow if everything goes smoothly of course. Jilahni agreed to have the babies b***d drawn but it can only be him who handles the testing and result with no one else. We wanted to keep whatever we find amongst family only until we know what traits the babies have that is human and what is wolf. He said he would be by first thing tomorrow and he left the room., We now lay side by side with the babies laying contently between us. I just laid there watching her playing with the girls taking them in. “Ok whats wrong this is the second time that I have caught you staring.” She said smiling at me. “I’m just so f*****g happy you’re ok. It’s been hell without you baby.” I said. With emotion finally able to breathe and take in the past few months. I was running on adrinaline this entire time and with her and the pups here and safe it feels like a weight has lifted off my shoulders for the first time in months. She reached over and caressed my jaw. “Thank you for everything you’ve done.” I grabbed her hand before she removed it and I kissed the palm of her hand and wrist. “I should be thanking you for making me a father and the miracle of giving me daughters which is something no alpha has ever been able to do and honestly I never knew it was something I wanted but looking at them I couldn’t live without them now that they are here.” I said reaching over to k**s her lightly as well as k**s the now sleeping angels between us., I brought the bassinet over to the bed and gently placed both of them in the same bassinet. “They sleep better together.” I told Jilahni who nodded and smiled at them. Getting back in bed I pulled her close to me. My emotions were all over the place our bond and connection was strong but there is also an uncomfortable uneasy feeling which I can only assume was because of me marking Summer. “So about their names.” She said breaking into my thoughts. “Do you have any ideas?” I asked still holding her closely I leaned my head in the crook of her neck inhaling her sweet scent that cause Maka to purr in contentment. “Actually yes I do. I want to keep the names you came up with. I would like to use my mom and your mom’s names as their middle names.” She said. I lifted my head to search her eyes. “Are you sure you don’t have to keep those names if you don’t want to.” I said. “I know, I love the names you picked for them.” She said lovingly., “So what was your mother’s name?” I asked. Realizing I know very little about her family. “Tiliah.” She responded fondly. “What was she like?” I asked. Her eyes lit up at the question. “She was a kind loving person she always made anyone feel loved no matter who they were. A lot of kids in the neighborhood would call her and my grandmother mom and grandma because they were the quiet loving type that never had to raise their voice to get attention their presences always made everyone around try to be on their best behavior so not to disappoint them.” She finished with her eyes filling with sad tears that I quickly brushed away. “They sound like wonderful women. So which one are you giving your mothers name to?” I asked “As you know me Mina and Shawna is all that is left of my family so I want to also include our last name so my family name will also live on through them.” I nodded in understanding. “So what will their full names be.” I asked., “Well we have Trouble Tiliah Nelson Crystal but that’s only if you want I’m not sure if they’re allowed to carry your last name if not then…. ” I cut her off. “Stop I’m their father and they will carry my name.” I said. My eyes glowing as Maka also came forward. “We have never had anything like this happen before but I really don’t care they are my pups and will carry my name and I know my parents will demand it.” I said with conviction. She gasped in shock. Damn it I forgot she just recently learned about wolves and her first interaction with werewolves hasn’t been a positive one. Closing my eyes pushing Maka back to my subconscious., “Don’t hide your wolf from me. I want to know and get use to both of my baby daddies I mean isn’t he also the daddy since you and him are one and my babies will be half wolves too.” She asked frowning trying to connect the dots. I chuckled. “Yes they are our pups.” I said in a gravel tone which is a sign that I was allowing me and Maka consciousness to come forward. “Maka?” she asked cupping our jaw Maka purred and I allowed him to answer. “Yes it tis me my mate.” Maka responded. “Your eyes are so beautiful.” she said breathlessly. “Not as beautiful as yours.” He said as he leaned in and kissed her. Oddly enough with Maka at the forefront of my subconscious I don’t feel any uncomfortable feelings or guilt. “That’s because I never doubted that she was mine and I was against you marking Summer. Now be quiet while I enjoy my mate. Maka said smartly. “Sometimes I don’t like you.” Maka grunted yea the feelings mutual.” before focusing back on Ji’lahni. “Will you show me your wolf?” She asked breaking into our back and forth. “Yes one day when you’re all better I want our pups to be use to both me and my wolf.” I answered and allowed Maka to retreat back into my subconscious completely content and happy for the first time in months. “OK.” she smiled., “So it’s official then. We have Trouble Tiliah Nelson Crystall aka Tru and Beautiful Lateri Nelson Crystall aka beah. My Mother is going to be over the moon I fully expect ugly crying.” I said chuckling thinking how my mother will react.” I said chuckling. “Yes I love the names but I want to call Beautiful Teri instead of beah that sounds like an old lady that smells like butter scotch candy.” Jilahni said giving me the stink face. I laughed even though I have no idea what she is talking about obviously their seniors smell a certain way. We both lay in comfortable silence. Until Jilahni took a deep breath and removed herself from my embrace. I grawled at her not being in my arms. “Kahi we have to talk about your marriage or mating Summer.” Damn I wanted to hold off from dealing with our reality a little while longer. Looking into her eyes I can see she wish that we could ignore it too but we can’t., Taking a deep breath. “I don’t want to come between you and her but I will not allow my children to be alone with her at anytime. I do not trust her judgment if my stance changes which I highly doubt, I’ll let you know. I will remain here for a while but I have a life outside of here and I don’t want to have to deal with people who don’t accept me or my babies and I don’t want to have to watch you and Summer together everyday building a happy loving family. She’s your happiness and I have to accept that no matter how much I lov.. How much I care for you. You deserve to be happy even if it’s not with me.” She said sadly turning to hide the tears. I wanted to tell her everything but I don’t want to get her hopes up if I can’t reverse the marking. So until I find out if I can I will allow her to think that I’m truly with Summer. Taking a deep breath. “I will accept any rules you set for the twins. But I’m not sure about the pups being safe living in a human environment without someone finding out what they are and do everything they can to take them in the name of science. Let’s just wait and see what they are capable of.” I said.. And she nodded. I Just brought myself a few months to find out how to reverse this marking safely….., Search the website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
