Chapter 186

“What's going on with Christy, Mom?” I ask as de pass me strapped up.

"I'm not sure, but if I had to guess, I'd say the feeding of your pack is scaring her. I smelled her fear when I stepped into the room, but not having a mind link with her, I can't say where it's coming from?

1 connect with Quinn's mind, listening to him talk with Christy. He's being so gentle with her. I send love and pride through the bond, so he knows I appreciate what he's doing I can tell that even though he's talking to Christy and still paying attention to what's going on with me, he's also focusing on the pack and what's happening with Slater. My mate is so perfect

“Okay, I'm set here. Once Quirin returns, we'll get started my mom says,

"I really hope we can see our pup. That would be so exciting," I say,

"We're not sure how far along you are, so just don't get your hopes up too much. If nothing else, we should be able to get a heartbeat. Actually, let's yet the heartbeat monitor wrapped around you now, I'll still wait to turn it on until Quirin comes in. I want him to hear his pup's heartbeat the same time you do," she says.

I know that Quirin can feel my excitement and I can feel that he's getting excited too. He's also very nervous, which is sweet

"Was Dad nervous when he found out you were pregnant?" I ask her.

She smiles. "He was so excited. I only had the heartbeat at first. He listened to it ver and over, played it on repeat that first night while we slept, I didn't know until

I had the ultrasound that there were actually two heartbeats in there. It's not always easy to find the second one, especially if you don't know to look for it. Then, I told him we were having twins in front of the pack. He was about to go to war with Brady and I wanted to make sure he knew he had a family to return to. He went a bit crazy at first. He actually started mumbling to himself. It was pretty funny"

"Dad was mumbling? I've never heard him do that before, only you."

"He only does it when he's really stressed out. I've only heard him do it a few times. Both times he found out we were having twins," she says laughing, "and maybe one or two other times when he was worried about you kids. It's pretty rare. Your father is as tough as they come."

Dad's pretty awesome, but personally, I think my mate is tougher than Dad.

I immediately hear Raif purring in my mind, listening in. I hear Quirin warning Leo

to be careful with Christy before he comes into our room.

"How is our sweet Christy?" I ask him as he walks over to kiss me.

"Better now, I think. I'll check on her again after she moves back to the

packhouse. The energy in the pack was scaring her. Did you know Leo was her mate and he rejected her?" he asks me.

I just raise an eyebrow at him.

"Right. Of course you did," he says, leaning over the bed to kiss me again. "What is all of this?" he asks, gesturing to the equipment Mom brought in for the heart monitor and ultrasound.
