Haley cleared her throat, “Back to the fucking Troll.” Dylan agreed, “Yes, back to my show. I will be quiet now.” Emmaline snorted. I laid out my thought process, “That’s why he’s been trying to take me. I picked up my new pills right after I’d met Chase. Noah knew when I’d be home and he was…. oh god! He was going to rape me to try knock me up with his kid.”
Haley scoffed, “Because he doesn’t know women have choices? Just because you get fucking pregnant doesn’t mean you have to have a baby. Especially if it’s with the fucking Troll! Are you fucking serious right now?”
Dylan said, “I think she is, and can I just say I love my life. Alpha Chase doesn’t know he’s having a pup, yet does he?” I blew out a breath, “Pup. Oh god. It’s pups because I guess I’m just going to the wolf route. Oh god. Baby wolves. I’m going to have super-fast baby Hood wolves. Two of them.”
Dylan threw his popcorn, “TWINS?!” I shrugged, “They run in my family apparently.” Haley yelled, “The fuck?!” I wiped my tears, “I met my family recently and they suck. Well, I have a cousin who doesn’t suck.” Emmaline asked, “You have family? I thought it was just your brother.” I nodded, “Apparently, I have more than my brother. They didn’t think we wanted them.”
Haley threw the wind around and yelled, “I WILL GO FAIRY FUCKING HIJINKS ON THEIR ASSES!” Her eyes turned different colors again briefly. Dylan definitely noticed but Emmaline didn’t. Dylan said, “I volunteer to be your bodyguard when you hunt down BA’s family to see the fairy hijinks that follow.”
Blade materialized and said, “Is guard. Always guard.” Serion materialized and grabbed his hand, “Blade, He just wants to see what Haley does to BA’s family. The funny wolf doesn’t want your job.” Dylan waved his hands all around, “Goddess no. I just enjoy the show. Hey, he admitted I’m funny! You all heard it! I have witnesses. Can I get witness ahhhhh yeah yeah yeah yeah!”
Blade said, “Family hurt BA. Blade kill.” I laughed, “Maybe not just yet.” Blade frowned then said, “Blade serious injury.” I agreed, “I could get on board with that.” Dylan interjected, “Not that anyone asked, but Dylan is on board with the ENTIRE plan. Just let Dylan be present for the showdown.”
Emmaline was crying again. Dylan warned, “Lucas is going to storm the castle if you don’t stop that. Please don’t turn to water. Look! Birth control M&M tablets.” Dylan threw the package at Emmaline. She actually ate some. She stopped crying and said, “I’ll bring you to the showdown Dylan. Someone might need to get pulled into my riptide.”
Dylan turned to me smiling, “She’s scary when she wants to be. She looks like this cute little thing that couldn't harm a fly, but she’s a secret Pokémon. SHHHH! Don’t tell anyone.” I laughed. “I still like you,” Dylan shrugged, “Aww shucks! You flatter me.”
Aiden popped into the room, “Little sister, the wolves are unhappy. It’s a whole thing. Congratulations on your babies, Black Arrow.” I bit my lip, “Uhh thanks?” Aiden asked, “Who is, I believe google says, the baby daddy? Is that right, Beta Dylan?”
Dylan howled with laughter until he managed to answer, “Yes, google says is right. It is called a baby daddy, and I’m going to call him that for the REST of eternity.” Dylan mouthed to me, “Alpha Baby Daddy.” I actually laughed.
Aiden asked, “So, who is it?” Something told me he knew. I said, “I can’t tell you, sorry. He doesn’t know yet, and he should be the next person to know. Plus, I’m not dating him as the Black Arrow. God, this just got so complicated.”
Dylan snorted, “Glorious. This just got glorious. I need two pallets of popcorn for tomorrow’s meeting.” Emmaline cautioned, “Dylan….” Dylan nodded, “You’re right. You’re eating for five. I can’t be selfish. I need three pallets. When you’re right, you’re just right.” I laughed, “Thank you…. for making me laugh Dylan.” Dylan saluted me, “Finally. Someone gets why I am here. Emmaline keeps trying to take the funny thing from me. As if it’s a title one can just up and take.”
Aiden cleared his throat, “Tomorrow?” Haley shrugged, “I changed the date.” He kissed her head, “Of course you did. I’ll change our other meeting to tomorrow as well then. Now, about going back to the party.” Haley huffed, “Oh alright. We’ll go back and calm down our mates. I love my room, brother. It’s very pretty and very me.” Aiden said, “The other one had to go.” I commented, “Damn right it did.”
Aiden raised an eyebrow at me in surprise. Haley grabbed me and I grabbed Dylan. We popped back to the main room where the party was. Katie and Torvi waddled over to us. Katie was in a blue maternity dress that was stunning. Torvi was in a red tight maternity dress. She was all baby. I hoped I looked like that. At least Haley could snap me fashionable clothes.
My heart lurched. OH god. Twins. I was going to be as big as a barn. Torvi handed me a drink, “Drink this for me since I can’t.” I said, “Uhh…” Haley snapped her fingers. I looked over and she tapped her temple with her index finger letting me know it was all good. Thank god we had a code. I downed it and smiled. Haley had snapped me sparkling grape juice.
Dylan yelled, “LUCAS! I AM NEVER LEAVING THIS PLACE AND YOU CAN’T MAKE ME!” Lucas rolled his eyes and simply said, “Lacy.” Lacy came over in a grey dress. She smiled and rubbed his back, “Dylan….” Dylan sighed, “This is cheating, Lucas. After all the things I do for you. You can’t let me be your Beta from another realm. It’s like you don’t appreciate all my hard work. It hurts me down deep.” Eric shook his head.
Molly joined us. I complimented her, “Your dress is stunning.” Her dress was three different colors of purple. She laughed, “I mentioned my dream ballgown to my sister-in-law, and it just appeared in my closet the other day.” I laughed, “I have things that just appear with notes about how it screamed I had to own them.”
Dylan interjected, “Can I get in on that action? I hate shopping. Shopping is the enemy.” Emmaline agreed, “Sure, Dylan. I’ll conjure you clothes when you need them.” Dylan said, “Ok, great.” He shouted, “Lucas, I’ll come home with you. ONLY because the Luna is going to make sure I never have to shop for my clothes again.”
Eric came over and put his arms around Haley. He smiled and said, “Lacy, I’ll give you one million dollars to make Dylan go shopping with you once a month for the entire year.” Lacy agreed, “Deal.” Dylan gasped, “It’s just a litany of betrayals. I told you BA, GAP here does love me. He’s trying to hide it because I’ve been digging down deep for his feelings of love for me. Now he does this. It hurts GAP, but you won’t deter me. I’m going to keep digging for those feelings of love for Dylan. I know you have them, and this is just an attempt to make me feel unloved. It SHALL NOT work, Sir. It shall not!”
Haley laughed and I joined her. I couldn’t help it. I gathered myself and told him, “You can't leave my side tonight, Beta Dylan. I need to laugh, and you’re a sure thing.” Dylan dramatically bowed to me, “Look at that, someone who appreciates the things I do for them. Did you write that down, GAP? What am I saying? Of course, you didn’t. BETA CALEB! OHHH BETA CCAAALLLEEBBB!”
Eric’s Beta walked over smirking. Beta Caleb shook his head, “I can hear you just fine, Beta Dylan. I am also on your group chat. I wrote it down.” Dylan complimented him, “Good man. You see GAP, us Betas we just make the world go round. You Alpha’s may be the head, but we are the neck. Sometimes the arms and legs too. Maybe even the brain.”
Haley was shaking with laughter. Queen Lucinda popped over to us. Katie winced. I frowned, “Katie, are you alright?” Katie took a deep breath, “Fine. I’ve just been feeling weird.” Haley questioned, “Weird how?” Just then Katie’s water broke. Lucinda squealed, “Aiden! A Hackura Prince is going to be born at our party! This is AMAZING! Nothing will EVER top our party.”
Logan rushed over to Katie. I couldn’t keep the smile off my face because he looked so in love with her. Worried but desperately in love like he always wanted to be with his mate. He said, “The hell he is. We are going home.” Katie screamed, “No, we aren't! I need to push!” Logan argued, “No…. no you don’t. No pushing!”
A female fairy popped over, “I’m a doctor, I can check her.” Haley spoke in rapid Fealish. We were suddenly behind a curtain. Logan said, “Thank you, little one.” Katie agreed, “Yes, thank you Haley. Now, I NEED to push.” The fairy doctor said, “She does. Do we have a doctor here who has experience with that? Normally, this is where a fairy would sneeze, and a baby would pop out.”
Molly shouted, “SNEEZE?” She looked at Haley asking, “You sneeze out pups?” Haley shrugged, “Yes.” Molly laughed and hit her arm and teasingly said, “You bitch.” Miley shouted, “SECONDED MOLLY!”
Logan's eyes were glowing. He said very quietly, “Are you saying you can’t help her?” Haley popped out and popped back with Doris. Doris ordered, “Out of my way fairy doctor. Honestly, leave your realm every so often. There’s a whole bunch of other supernatural’s out there. Katie here has fairy blood. This won’t be a tough delivery.”
The fairy doctor frowned but moved offering, “I can assist should you need it.” Doris considered it then agreed, “Very well. I need you to snap me supplies. Conjure this list.” Doris handed her phone to the fairy doctor, who nodded.
Aiden and Lucinda were practically radiant themselves; they were so excited. Torvi stiffened. Marcus flew to her side, “Torvi?” Logan yelled, “YOU TOO? Both of you are in labor?” Torvi assured her mate, “We have time, Marcus. Trust me it’s not my first. I’d say he will be born on New Year’s Day not Eve.’” Marcus yelled, “BJOURN, GET ME A PORTAL!” Bjourn laughed and created a portal. Marcus picked up Torvi and ran her back through it.
Aiden said, “Well….my, my, my.” Lucinda squealed, “TWO! I’m counting that one as another Hackura Prince. He started his journey into this world in our realm. Haley you should give birth here next!” Eric growled loudly, shaking the room. Aiden rolled his eyes, “Wolves. They are so sensitive.”
