The Hidden Princess At All-Boys Alpha Academy

Chapter 0978

Marigold gives a little cry of distress, reaching for her dad, but Jesse holds her tight, whispering to her that dad's fine, he's just very, very surprised.

I let Jesse handle our daughter for a moment, going to my knees before Jackson and taking his face in my hands. "Jacks," I whisper, turning his glazed eyes to mine. "Baby, are you all right?"

Something about this brings Jackson snapping back to me. "Ariel," he says on a gasped intake of breath. "Are - are you fucking all right!?"

"I'm fine," I say, all in a rush, crawling into Jackson's lap and opening the bond between us, letting him see and feel that I really am okay - that everything with me is fine. I mean, beyond the fact that our entire reality just came shattering down around us again...I really am okay.

He groans, resting his head against me, his whole body shaking a little bit as he takes a deep sniff of my new scent. "Pregnant..." he whispers, barely audible. "You're...you're fucking...pregnant."

"Yeah," I say, my voice a tremulous little sound as well. "Yeah, Jacks. I...sure am." "Oh my god," he groans. "How... how do I have two kids..."

I go a bit still in his arms.

He whips his face up to me.

I bite my lip, grimacing a little. “Do you want to...count again, Jacks?"

He whips his head back down to stare at my stomach, clearly turning inwards to his own wolf, checking on the bonds that have made themselves apparent in his own soul as well. And then he groans, collapsing against me again as he realizes a very important bit of information.
