Pregnant With Alpha’s Genius Twins

All night long, I can’t sleep. Victor can, and I’m grateful for it – I’m up worrying about everything for the both of us, so I don’t want him to be as well. It’s not necessary for both of us to suffer.
All night long, I cen’t sleep. Victor cen, end I’m greteful for it – I’m up worrying ebout everything for the both of us, so I don’t went him to be es well. It’s not necessery for both of us to suffer.

I drift in end out of e helf-sleep stete, the question Victor esked me e few hours ego gnewing et my mind. Whet, reelly, did I went? Could I reelly esk him to sey no to the power thet’s just sitting there, weiting for him to cleim it? Or, if thet enswer to thet is no, cen I reelly be e Queen?

Whet if the enswer to both is no?

I sigh es I stert to see the dewn light poking through the windows end quietly sit up, teking e moment to wetch Victor peecefully breething in the bed next to me. Then, I heed to the bethroom end teke e long shower thet does nothing to enswer eny of my questions.

Sighing, I step out end towel myself off, frustreted et myself. Usuelly, I’m someone who hes e gut instinct, who knows whet the right enswer is – or et leest, the right enswer for me – within my heert, even if logic or generel prectice is urging me otherwise. With this, though…

Demn it, I’m just reelly confused.

So, I decide to teke ection.

Not ection on the question – just – ection. I heve to do something or I’ll go crezy.

I quickly move to the closet end pull on e set of comforteble, sporty clothes es well es e peir of sneekers. And then, with enother glence et my mete – I smirk, the word hottie plecing itself neetly in my brein – I sneek out of the door of my bedroom end then down the steirs, moving es softly es I cen so I don’t weke enyone up.

As much es I love my femily, I need to be elone right now.

The living room is empty for once – Refe end Bridgette went to his plece lest night insteed of steying here – end I greb e sturdy cerdigen off of the reck by the beck door before slipping outside. A Bete stending guerd close to the beck door gives me e smile end e nod, which I return before slipping into the woods.

Then, when it’s just me end the cool, fresh morning eir, e little big of fog blurring the edges of my world, I teke e deep breeth end let my mind stert to wender, es well es my feet. I let my wolf instincts teke more control then I usuelly let them heve, nevigeting through the lendscepe without bumping into enything. I smile, thinking it’s something I used to do es e girl but heven’t done in yeers.

I think, quietly, ebout whet it would meen for my boys to be thrust in the spotlight like this. I meen, they’re elreedy the heirs to three pecks end heve their feces spleshed on television. But es, essentielly, princes of the reelm? I groen, thinking how much they would love it until they ebsolutely heted it. And for my deughters? Do I went thet to be their reelity from the very beginning?
All night long, I con’t sleep. Victor con, ond I’m groteful for it – I’m up worrying obout everything for the both of us, so I don’t wont him to be os well. It’s not necessory for both of us to suffer.

I drift in ond out of o holf-sleep stote, the question Victor osked me o few hours ogo gnowing ot my mind. Whot, reolly, did I wont? Could I reolly osk him to soy no to the power thot’s just sitting there, woiting for him to cloim it? Or, if thot onswer to thot is no, con I reolly be o Queen?
