The Fated Trinity

Chapter Six: The Alpha is my baby's father

Dr. Gee opts to do a regular ultrasound instead of a transvaginal one, which I am so down for. She and Nurse Sarah are quiet during the ultrasound and I closely watch for their reactions and facial expressions. I am snapped out of thought when she asks me a question.

“Amber, would you like to hear the baby’s heartbeat? We can also print it out on a CD for you.”

My eyes light up, “Yes, I would love to!”

She smiles and within seconds all you hear in the room is the sound of what reminds me of the tiniest drum. I feel the tears pooling in the corner of my eyes. That’s my baby’s heartbeat. A living, breathing, being is inside of me. While the thought still troubles me, it is the most enlightening thing I have ever heard.

“Have you not heard the baby’s heartbeat yet?” Dr. Gee asks as she sees the expression on my face.

I gently shake my head as I try to keep the tears from falling. Her face drops and she also shakes her head, “I don’t like your other Doctor.”

“Me either.”

“Alright, sweetheart, let's get you sat up.”

I slowly sit up as she prints off the ultrasound pictures, which by the way are the most crystal clear and beautiful ones I have so far.

“Okay, so. Based on the information you’ve given me and the size of the baby, you are pregnant with a werewolf baby.”

I sit there in total silence, unsure of what to say as she continues.

“It’s okay. I will need to monitor your care throughout the pregnancy though. Do you know who the father is?” she asks gently.

I shake my head, feeling ashamed.

“That’s okay. Maybe leadership and your dad can track him down since that was here in Florida. If not, you have the pack, your Dad, sister, and us to help you.”

“Thank you.”

“Your due date is July 30th and you, based on your LMP and date of conception, are six weeks and six days pregnant.”

She goes over a ton of information with me, explaining that weeks nine through fourteen will be the worst for me. As those are the weeks that the baby will double and even triple in size. She said to expect pain and that we will manage it with over-the-counter medications. After she finishes explaining this to me she asks if I am ready to head out and I nod with a warm smile.

“Gamma Masterson, can I speak with you for a moment,” she asks Dad as I walk out.

Dad stands there waiting for her to talk and his attention is solely on her.

“It is a werewolf pregnancy. I need her here in Florida to monitor her. I don’t have licensing to practice in Indiana. Will you be able to travel back and forth?”

“Yeah, that won’t be a problem.”

“Okay. Once she hits week 16 I will need her down here until after the baby is born and then the baby cannot fly until he/she is at least 12 weeks old.”

Dad nods, “Alright. When do you need to see her next?”

She hands Dad an appointment reminder card and they chat for a few moments before Dad comes over and asks Sia and me if we are ready to go. We both say yes and head out to the rental car. We both expect Dad to take the exit to the airport, however he doesn’t.

“Dad? Where are we going?” I ask.

“The compound hunny.”

“Oh.”

“Yeah, there is some business stuff we need to discuss while I am down here.”

The drive took forever because of the traffic. What should have been a forty-five-minute drive ends up being an hour and twenty minutes. As we take the exit we head into what feels like the middle of nowhere. Turning down a dead-end road and pulling up to a gated mansion that reminded me of something off of MTV Cribs. My mouth gapes open like I am a Venus flytrap. Sia fell asleep a few minutes ago and I didn’t realize it until I nudge her and she jumps slightly.

“Oh! Sorry sis, I didn’t know you were sleeping.”

“It’s okay. What’s wrong?”

“Nothing. Look at this place…,” I say as we pull up to this house.

Her eyes widen and the Amber flecks in her eyes sparkle in the sunshine. I would bet we are both wearing the same expression.

“Fancy,” she laughs slightly.

The car rolls to a stop and Dad steps out, “Come on girls. Leadership would like to finally meet you.”

Dad lightly knocks on the door and I almost die when the door swings open and I recognize the man standing in the doorway. My heart races and I feel like I am going to puke. He was at the club…with the guy I slept with. Sia grabs my arm and I give her an I know side-eye.

“Tyler. Dude long time no f*****g see,” the guy says as he bro hugs our Dad.

His eyes land on Sia and me and it was at that moment he too recognized us. He points as the smirk on his face spreads, “Who?”

“My daughters, Amber and Sia,” Dad replies pointing to us.

His eyes widen as he raises his eyebrows, “Your daughters?”

Dad nods as we walk inside. f**k. Okay. So he is clearly a werewolf. Does that mean… no way. ABSOLUTELY no FKING way.

“Kai, Ryker, Ty, Jeon come here. Tyler and his daughters are here,” he yells toward the sliding glass door with his tongue pressed firmly into his cheek.

Welp. There he is. Well, I don’t know who is who, but there are the twins from that night, and uh…one of them is the father of my baby. All of them recognize us, it's visible on their faces.

“Amber, Sia, this is Alpha Ryker, Alpha Kai, Beta Wang, Beta Jeon, and Delta Wang,” Dad says pointing to each of them.

KAI. That was his name. Oh my fking…he’s the Alpha of our pack. I slept with a fking Alpha. My heart is racing. Beating so hard it’s probably going to give out.

Dad looks at us as we don’t say a word, “Girls,” he says, shaking his head.

“Oh…uh...Hi,” I stammer.

“Amber. Hi,” Kai says, licking his lips.

Help me. Please. Send HELP. I nod at him.

Beta Jeon’s eyes are fixated on Sia and me as he points to us, “How old are your daughters again?”

“Eighteen, and no,” Dad replies sternly.

All of their mouths fall open and they begin laughing. Kai and Ryker look at Sia and me, “Eighteen, huh?” Kai says through a head shake.

I swallow hard and look away.

“So what are you doing down here? Not that we care, just haven’t seen you in a while,” Beta Wang asks.

“Amber had a doctor's appointment with Dr. Gee. Speaking of which, I need your help. Girls go out back and wait for me please,” Dad replies.

Sia and I head outside and she stares at me. Without having to speak I know what she is thinking. Kai is my baby’s father. Lovely. Dad’s going to kill him and me. Peachy.

Tyler’s POV:

“What’s going on?” Ryker asks me.

“You’re gonna find out anyway, but my daughter, Amber, is pregnant. They were down in Miami over spring break and she somehow… she slept with a f*****g wolf. If they’re here they have to be part of the pack or here with a pardon. I need help finding out who it is. They have a right to know they have a child on the way.”

Everyone’s eyes fixate on Kai and my own eyes trail over to him.

“What do you mean she’s pregnant?” he asks.

The annoyance must be written on my face as he quickly rephrases his question.

“How far along is she?” he asks.

“Six weeks Seven days, according to Dr. Gee. She got pregnant during their spring break trip. One. f*****g. Time,” I scowl.

The atmosphere in the room has changed all of a sudden from light to heavy. Kai’s facial expression is confusing, from pure terror to disbelief.

“I’ll be right back,” Kai mutters as he walks outside.

Amber’s POV:

“You’re pregnant?” Kai asks as he closes the sliding glass door quickly.

I nearly choke on air from how hard I inhale it and nod my head.

“The kid ain't mine,” he blurts out.

“Woah,” Sia says with a disgusted look on her face.

“Bullshit,” he growls.

My heart races and I am not sure what to say other than, “You’re the only person I have had s*x with. The baby is yours.”

He shakes his head no and storms off around the house.
