Page 90 of Pack Plus Three

I nodded. “We found out a few days ago.”

“That’s amazing!” Molly said. “Your entire pack is taking paternity leave, right? That poor girl is going to need all the sleep after birthing two babies.”

“We are,” I confirmed. “My pack is already on leave. I planned to take it after this game because she wasn’t due for several weeks originally.”

“How early is she?” Molly asked with a frown.

“Five or six weeks. The doctor assured us that was normal with twin pregnancies.”

“It is,” Molly confirmed. She turned to look at Zach who was walking back toward our group.

“There’s a car waiting outside for you. It’ll take you straight to the air strip and you’ll be with your omega within two hours—now get out of here. I’ll let the team know what’s happening.”

“Give them my apologies,” I said, picking up the duffle bag off the floor where I had discarded it when I had first started speaking with Zach.

“Never apologize for prioritizing your family,” Zach said as he pushed me toward the door. “Let us know when it’s all over. We want details!”

“Thank you!” I called over my shoulder as I dashed from the lobby and into the waiting vehicle.

It took an hour and forty-eight minutes for me to get to the hospital. The flight assistant had insisted I turn my phone off for the hour we were in the air and I had to resist shouting at her in frustration.

Devon and Nate were updating me via text as often as they could but naturally their focus was on our omega. The last update I received was that Daisy was being transferred into a delivery room and she was progressing nicely.

Running at a breakneck pace through the hospital, I’d ignored every funny look I received from the security guards, silently praying that they weren’t going to stop me.

Judging by the horrified look the nurse gave me as I burst into the labor ward, I must have looked a mess, but I was beyond caring.

I was about to be a dad.

“Am I in time?” I asked as I leapt through the door. Daisy was sitting cross-legged on the hospital bed, Nate standing next to her, holding her hand as she strained through a contraction.

Her mass of red hair was piled on top of her head, and she wore a pale pink hospital gown. Even when sweaty and clearly exhausted, she was stunning.

“Just in time!” Daisy cried hoarsely holding out a hand for me which I gratefully took, taking a spot next to Devon on her other side.

“Thought you weren’t going to make it. How did you get here so fast?” Devon asked.

“I borrowed Grayson’s jet!” I admitted. “I was going to rent a car, but they insisted.”

“Oh damn! Look at you being all fancy. It’s a damn good thing though, because you would have missed it if you drove.” Devon laughed.

“All that matters is that it got him here on time.” Daisy panted, looking at me thankfully.

Leaning forward I gently planted a kiss on her forehead, letting the familiar scent of her soothe my adrenaline-panicked body. She was stressed out enough, and the last thing she needed was me freaking out through the bond as well.

“Are you feeling okay?” I asked, my lips against her forehead as I cupped her face, reluctant to let her go.

She nodded. “It’s not been that painful overall. Mostly, it’s just been uncomfortable. And as scared as I am for the next steps, I’m very excited to get them out.”

“How much longer do you think it’ll be?” I asked.

My timing truly was impeccable because I had been holding her hand less than thirty seconds when the doctor came into the room with a big smile on her face.

“It’s almost time to push! Let’s meet your babies.”
