For the next week Steve watched over me like a hawk. He would not let me out of his sight at all. I guess that night scared him badly. I am truly sorry for that but it had to be done. The only time he left me alone was when Cassie and I were doing our canning projects. Even then he would sit at the counter watching rather than work in his office. During the evening Tiffany ran the sewing circle and she would tell him no men aloud five or six times before he finally left. Only to come back an hour later to check on me again. He is driving me nuts. After we were done for the night I went to our room. After about ten minutes he comes racing into the room.
"Why didn't you call me when you were done?"
"Sweetheart I can walk to our room on my own. I didn't want to bother you in case you were busy. I love you but your driving me crazy. I'm sorry I scared you but you have to move on from that. Tomorrow we start building the new pack house and I have to go out and show them where it needs to go. I can't have you standing over me like I'm helpless. I am the Luna, How is this going to make me look to the pack?"
"I'm sorry my love it's just going to take some time. I was afraid I lost you. I promise I will try to give you more space. I know I'm being a bit much when your in the pack house so I will stop but when your outside it will be harder. I'm sorry I promise I will try to give you more space. Now please come to bed I need to hold you."
I lay done next to him but he pulls me very close to him. Then he slides one hand down my stomach. We feel a flutter and I put my hand over his.
"See even the twins are getting upset with you. I love you. I'm not going anywhere. We are safe, we are fine, and according to Mike we are healthy . Please calm down."
"I promise I will try to calm down. What time tomorrow morning do we need to be on the south side?"
"I was told nine a.m. so they can get a full day of building done. Although I have the power now I can build the house for them. Or at least the outer frame so they save a few weeks what do you think?"
"Will it tire you out? I don't want you over exerting yourself."
"No I have been practicing since I woke up. The Guardians say that since I have been working on it with them they are amazed by how far I have come."
"Fine the tomorrow you can put up the outer frame of the pack house. The we need to do a walk through and see if we can find the alter the witches are looking for. Now I need to make love to you."
After making love to each other for the next few hours we fell asleep. Everything was going just fine until I woke up at five a.m.
The next morning....
I managed to sleep in this morning. When I looked at the clock it said 5:02 a.m. I was fine till I got to the bathroom. After I relieved myself I noticed blood. I was worried. I knew I would never get any space if something was wrong with the twins. I clean up and head downstairs and ask Cassie's advice. She tells me it could be anything and to call Mike.
So on a very tight link I ask Mike if he's available. He automatically says yes. I ask if I can come to the clinic and he says yes. So Cassie gives me a hug and I go the the clinic. Mike opens the door for me and says,"What's wrong Luna? How can I help?"
"I'm not sure if anything is wrong, but I'm bleeding and I need to know if something is wrong. It's not much but it's enough to scare me. And I don't need the Alpha freaking out more than he already is."
"Okay so here's what we will do. First change into this gown while I get an ultrasound machine then we will see what's up."
After I change I wait for him to come back in. Only when the door opens it is Steve not Mike standing in the doorway.
"Why didn't you wake me? Are you okay? What's wrong?"
"Please calm down. This is why I didn't wake you. I knew you would overreact. I am lightly bleeding Mike is going to check things out and we go from there. If you can't calm down and remain quiet you will leave the stress of dealing with you is getting to be to much."
Then Mike walks in the room pulling the machine with him."Luna I'm sorry he made me tell him. Now first thing I have to do is give you an exam. Alpha you need to step outside please I don't feel like being attacked for doing my job."
Steve nods his head and goes into the hallway. Then Mike has me move down on the bed and open my legs. After he puts on gloves he sticks two fingers inside me. It is so strange as I feel him move his fingers around. Whatever he is looking for I guess he finds because he nods his head and says good. Then he notices the blood on the glove and I start to panic. Steve comes rushing in. "What's wrong? What's the matter?"
Mike pulls of the gloves and tells Steve to sit down. Then Mike has me pull up the gown so he can use the machine. After putting the cold jelly on my stomach he moves the wand around. He turns the machine up and we hear the heartbeat. I start crying as he moves the wand again and he recorded a second heartbeat. He measured everything and took pictures then he shuts off the machine. Once he is done wiping off my stomach I can't take the silence.
"Mike what's going on with the babies?"
Alpha, Luna I was trying to figure out how to ask you a question without getting my head ripped off. But I don't want to stress you so don't hit me Alpha. Did you have sex last night?"
I frown at him but say," Yes why?"
"You are carrying twins, the physical contact is to much for your body. I'm sorry but you can not have sex for the rest of the pregnancy. You are all fine. The twins are safe and healthy. Everything is where it needs to be. My only stipulation is now more sex. There are other ways of completing your goal just no more sex. You might bleed lightly for the rest of the day but it will stop. They are safe."
"Umm okay Mike thank you. I will admit I was scared. We will follow the rules. Oh before he goes crazy can I still go to the south side of the pack and set up the pack house?"
"As long as you don't pick up anything you will be fine. That also means when your doing your canning projects you can no longer carry the cases downstairs or bring them to me. Now go eat you are okay. Last thing Alpha stop stressing her out so much that's not good for any of them either. Now go ahead and change you can go."
After that Mike walks out of the room. When I turn to change my clothes Steve grabs me and hugs me. I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him. Then I hug him as well. After a minute I change my clothes and we head back to the pack house.
