Nina

I woke up the next morning with another wave of morning sickness. It took almost all of my strength to stumble to the bathroom before the contents of my stomach emptied, and when I was finished, I sank down onto the floor with a heavy sigh.

"Stupid morning sickness," I muttered as I rubbed my belly. "Maybe I should ask the Moon Goddess to stop me from throwing up so much."

"Be careful what you wish for," my wolf teased.

"You're right." With some effort, I rose to my feet and walked over to the sink, where splashed some cool water onto my face. At the very least, I could rest easy knowing that Enzo was coming home after two days of being back in Mountainview; and he was bringing our friends with him.

I hoped that they would enjoy the party. After all, it wasn't entirely about introducing our hodgepodge little pack to the werewolf realm, but it was also about seeing them. And considering the fact that Lon had been in a hospital bed the last time I saw her, I was dying to see how she had recovered.

Later, as I stood by the spot where the portal would open, I waited patiently for them to arrive. And, just like clockwork, it happened: the swirling purple and blue vortex opened, causing a gust of wind to blow into the room.

And then, they started to come through the portal one by one.

First came Lori. She stepped out of the portal, looking windswept with her mouth agape. "Lori!" I exclaimed, rushing over to her.

"I'll never get used to that," Lori said, clutching her stomach, her face pale.

"Here, sit," I said, gesturing to a chair. Lori thanked me and sat down, putting her head between her knees. Next came another fizzling sound from the portal, followed by Jessica, who was, thankfully, standing on both feet.

"Jessica," I breathed, rushing forward.
