Josh povI held my best friend as he went limp and I barely felt my dad moving me as him and Duke took over. Gemma was sobbing and holding her belly as they worked on him. Claire stepped up. She looked worried as she watched Lucas."please move, she kneeled beside him her hands over his wound, I need space",I watched her concentrate and blue light came out her hands and into Lucas. She didn't move even as May rushed over to help and everyone went quiet. The rogues hauled ass and some of our men gave chase to kill them."little one",I all but whispered. I watch May and my mate heal Lucas and it was amazing. The wound closed up and the blood stopped flowing. He remained on the ground as doc ran in and with one shock he was back. Claire and May stood on shaky legs and as I reached for Claire she fell. Shocked gasps sounds as Duke caught May and I caught Claire both passed out from the drain of their power to save a pack member.Fuck Scar growled as he looked Claire over."we will join you
Josh povClaire is pregnant. I stare at doc In shock but happiness as he goes over test results and keeps saying congratulations. We are both reeling even after my dad walks in. Fuck.Hunter is still a newborn and we went from three pups up to four."I've been healing others",she looks at doc with worry. "I know and I suggest the remaining pregnancy don't do that. You need to eat and rest honey. Your way to tiny as it is",Claire sighs."pregnant ",I repeat after he leaves. Claire looks shocked but tears fill her eyes. Victor smiles at us as we sit repeatedly saying pregnant. When my dad walks in I pull him into a hug a big smile on my face."I knew we heard a heartbeat",Victor looked at us smiling. He kept saying they heard it but at first we thought Gemma but now fuck me sideways another pup.I went and told Lucas and Gemma and Gemma squealed before coming back with me to see Claire who was drifting off again."I will come back later",Gemma hugged me and my dad before leaving. Lucas
Josh povI go back to Claire and calm myself so I don't stress or scare her. She is sitting up looking scared till she sees me."Josh",she whimpers."easy love we got it handled I swear",I hugged her and felt instant calmness. I kissed her lips and sighed."what did they want?",I eased back and sighed."the vampires ",she teared up."please don't give them what they want, she begged, please help Victor and the others. I really like them Josh and I feel comfortable with them. Safe, she mumbles, I feel safe with them. It feels like the pack is now complete ",she blushes. Victor comes in and Claire looks him over."I'm not hurt honey relax",he smiles at her."you won't leave, right?",she looked at him. He nodded no."no honey I'm staying here. Feels like home to us and we really like all of you",she sighs relieved. My dad walks in and looks tired."they ran I got men tracking them but I don't think this will be the end of those fuckers" ,he sits with a sigh.We all talk and when Claire ya
Gemma povI waited for Lucas but got his dad instead and I almost collapsed hearing my mate is in a coma and has spinal damage. He may never walk but waking up may never happen either. I was awful to him before he left and I hate myself for it. The next month is me juggling Jace and visits with Duke who still hasn't woke up. He is just laying there. I lay our son beside him and watch but nothing.Doc Is convinced he will wake but I'm losing hope. Josh comes to visit but Claire is on strict bedrest due to her twin pregnancy. I haven't gone to see her I'm so upset when I'm not faking it I'm at home crying. Thank goodness Jace sleeps a lot because If not I would traumatize the poor kid."he looks good honey, doc says as I take a seat, Seems to be healing he just needs to wake up",I sigh. I hope he wakes because I'm struggling with our pup and these visits. Doc checks a few more things before leaving. I'm sitting there till Jace gets hungry and I leave so his crying doesn't affect Lucas.
Gemma povAnother day I'm sitting by Lucas and watch Jace lay on his chest and I feel hollow. I have trouble sleeping and most times eating. I feel at a loss because he is completely healed but hasn't woke up yet. Doc is worried the longer he stays in this coma and I'm about to shut down."no change, doc takes his vitals, he hasn't showed signs of decline but him not waking worries me. We did scans he has brain activity just isn't awake yet. Don't give up honey he will come back",yeah right I hold in my scoff as I stare at my pup. "thanks doc",I sigh. I'm exhausted. Claire stopped by yesterday and wanted me to come by her house but I refused. I didn't have the stomach to watch her and Josh be lovey dovey. She looked pissed but I didn't care and I held my pup as she huffed before leaving. Josh stopped by and he looked at me before speaking. "do you have to shoot Claire down when she asked you to come by?",I glared at him."I'm in no mood for it Josh. You both should understand that. I
Lucas povGemma sobbed in my arms and fuck if it didn't make me tear up with her. She held on and I felt my legs but it went away again. I felt her warmth against them but I still stayed quiet. I won't tell her till I can walk."I'm sorry my love, I kissed her head, I'm here now baby",she sniffles and holds on tight. I feel her shivering and I ease her back."I'm cold",her teeth chatter my wolf growls viciously as we look our mate over with worry. "Gemma what the hell?",she continues shaking and fear fills me. I mind link doc to get in here as I hold her to me.Doc rushes in and I look at him helpless as he turns her gently. Gemma shakes and he covers her."Gemma honey, he starts but she is shaking so bad he can't get vitals right, nurse!,he yells, warming blankets. Serum shot and page Alpha Josh",fuck I'm not use to it yet as I hear them call Josh alpha. He comes fast as they try to warm her. "what happened?",he looks worried. "she can't get warm alpha",I touch her and I'm scared s
Lucas povAfter my dad's visit I took Gemma again and tucked her in so she could rest. Was I horny? Fuck yes but my mate needed sleep. Josh came in and smiled."heard about your moon goddess visit",he looked at me waiting. "yes she loves popping up and surprising me",he sat."what she say exactly?",I sighed."our mates are considered a double powerhouse together. Others want that power for themselves and my all time favorite we got a battle coming. I was told to work hard to walk because it will happen soon",he raked fingers through his hair frustrated. "when do we get breaks?",my thoughts exactly I sighed."I hope soon, I looked at Gemma, my mate needs some care and not stress. Moon goddess said once she trains fully the shit starts. I assume we are being watched",he looked up worry in his eyes."we don't need this bullshit Lucas, he growled, I just want peace forever ",I feel the same. All we do is fight it seems. We both sigh and I look at Gemma with worry. Training seems so damn
Lucas pocI shower us after our fun and look my mate over. Still thin but fucking beautiful. I kiss her head and dry us before pulling on clothes. She hugs me as I stand there smiling."they want you and Claire my love, I kiss her pout, once you fully train you and her will be unstoppable. So let us hope the warriors get the rest of them",she sighs as I pick her up and head to my bed. I gently place her there and grab a shake hoping she drinks it."I'm not even strong Lucas",she looks up at me as she sips her chocolate shake."yes my love you are, I brush her hair back, your the strongest she wolf I ever met. You dealt with a lot while I was in my coma and you stayed strong",she looked away at the last part but it is true I admire her grit. Gemma pushed forward even when she was exhausted she kept going. Even when she wanted to give up she kept going so I know my girl is strong as hell."I don't feel strong Lucas I fell apart as soon as you woke up",I gather her close and kiss her lips
