I watch as my mate sits on the edge of the bed, patiently smiling at me. He's rubbing my belly that is huge with four pups. There's so little space in my stomach that you can see their butts or heads or sometimes their feet when they kick out because there's just not enough room in there.

My little stomach-extenders obviously love their father more than they love me because they stop shifting around so he can touch them. Raif is purring loud enough to practically bring down the rafters in our bedroom and somehow my pups don't seem to care that I'm the one who is just as uncomfortable as they

are.

Echo hasn't gotten any stronger during my pregnancy and I'm not surprised. As soon as my Alpha pups started getting too jammed up in my stomach, they started kicking; kicking my bladder, kicking my kidneys, and kicking my ribs, sometimes hard enough to crack them. Obviously at least one of them has her father's strength.

'What can we do to help you?' Quirin asks in my mind so I can hear him over Raif's rumbling purr.

'Put me out of my misery?'

Okay, I'm grumpy. I've been on bedrest since the first cracked rib nearly two months ago. Quirin or my guards have to carry me to the bathroom, which is mortifying. I tried to walk myself when Lane was here, practically snarling at him to get away from me, telling him that I could walk myself. But my balance is off from having so many large pups and I almost fell. After that, there was no argument. I wouldn't have anyway once I realized I'm so unbalanced that I'm putting my pups at risk, but Quirin gave them the Alpha command to carry me anywhere that takes me off the bed.

He didn't say a word to me, just came in giving me the angriest look he's ever given me in my life and I'd burst into tears. He's been careful not to look at me like that again. My mate is one hell of a fighter, but he's no match for my tears. The day after that altercation, Farrah arrived and since then, she and Christy have been my constant companions. Christy isn't strong enough to carry me, but Farrah is.

But then, I started getting really tired and he stopped taking me as often. We tried different positions, but eventually, being on my side and even riding him became too difficult because of discomfort. The only position that works at all is if he has me bent over, his arms supporting the weight of our pups while he's inside me. I don't get the

The shift in position does feel good briefly, shifting the weight of my pups from my back to my stomach and with Quirin's hands supporting them, it makes it possible for me to enjoy having him inside me. It's not the mind-blowing orgasms that I had before with Quirin, but it does help to take off the grumpy edge of my attitude for a few hours. Quirin, on
