The Scarred Shewolf

Chapter Thirteen

The days blurred together as my mother avoided me at all cost, I am sure she was worried she would spill the beans about the babies. I laid across our bed thinking about everything that has happened over the last several weeks, and thank the goddess that I am where I am now. I am a month and six days pregnant, however I am measuring nearly full term. They suspect that I could go into labor any day now, this worried us all as no one has heard of such a short term pregnancy even for us.

I have spent most of my days alone lately, well not fully alone Blaine has insured someone stood guard with me incase of an emergency. He, however, has been running around trying to find answers about what makes me so special to be kissed by the goddess and what all it means for us and the kids. I keep having dreams where I talk to her,she assures me that we are destined for great things but to never let my guard down because some may not be as they seem. She is always illusive and leaves me with more questions to ask.

"Today is the day" Athena said to me causing me to jump startled by the sudden sound in such a quiet moment. "we get to connect with the pack and find out what our pups are."

I just nodded and sighed. My mother had rushed the past few days working endlessly to get things set up for the reveal. No one knew when I would go into labor so we wanted to try and get this done before that happened. I stood up and looked at the male guard standing silently in the corner ensuring I didn't faint or anything again. Chris I think was his name, I always had the same two depending on what I was doing, A male for in general and female for more private matters like a shower. I linked Blaine telling him I needed to get a shower to get ready, moments later the lady, Tonya came walking in. We nodded to Chris and made our way into the restroom.

Thankfully shifters were used to stripping around each other, I may not be myself but knowing it is normal eased my nerves a little. With me being huge right now Tonya had to help assist me out of my clothes into the shower. Blaine had bought a shower chair for me to sit on while I showered so I could remain as independent as possible. Once under the hot water Tonya handed me the rag and soap before closing the curtain but standing outside it incase I was to need her.

"Tonya I know yall stay quiet when with me, I am unsure if that is an order or not. Either way I wanted to tell you that you have been a life saver these past several weeks." I said to her as I began washing my body the best I could manage with my huge stomach. Blaine washes my privates for me most of the time but I wasn't comfortable with Tonya doing that part.

"No ma'am it is not an order. He just said you seem to like your quiet moments and wasn't to fond of never having privacy so unless spoken to not to bother you. He worries we could upset you thus causing issues farther. No need to thank me though luna, it is my pleasure to be of assistance to you, however I may be needed" Tonya responded.

Her voice was almost beautiful like music, velvety. She is tall, about 5'10" and buff, she was obviously a woman warrior. Her hair was long and blonde, and she had deep blue eyes with beautiful long eyelashes. Most woman with her natural beauty would be girly girl, but Tonya was far from it, or maybe she is both? I would worry about her and Blaine but if my hunch is correct her and Chris were a thing. Maybe not mates but I could smell them on each other.

I smiled at her response, but finished my shower quietly. I pulled the curtain aside to show I was finished, Tonya immediately held up a towel for me before assisting me safely from the shower. She helped me into the room and to sit on my bench at the foot of the bed. She turned her attention to me and smiled.

"What outfit would you like to wear today?" She asked me

"My mother and several other females from the home went shopping to find me clothes size HUGE" I laughed "There are a lot of options in the closet over there but i honestly have no clue"

"Would you like me to pick something out?" She offered

I nodded and smiled my approval and she turned on her heals and disappeared into the closet I had pointed to. I heard the sound of clothes moving on the rack for several minutes and her humming as she tried to find something she approved of. She emerged from the closet holding a white dress with blue and pick flowers around the waist, a grin on her face.

"I think this would look stunning on you, and it has both colors for the gender reveal." She smiled

"Its beautiful and perfect!" I exclaimed " How did you pick something so perfect. No offense but you dont strike me to be the girly type" I chuckled

"I was the event planner and dresser for the pack house prior to becoming a warrior. I am a bit of a girly girly underneath this cover" She laughed " I chose to become a warrior in this pack after my small pack in Indiana was attacked by several hundred rogues. I watched my little brother and father who were both warriors fight to the death and be ripped apart before my mother attacked them long enough for me to run like hell. I never saw my mother again and eventually found myself here. Blaines father took me in after I told him what had happened. My brother was only 18 when he died I was only 20. I am now 31 and thankful for this pack. I vowed to never be vulnerable again so I became a warrior." I could see her unshed tears

"Oh Tonya I am so sorry!" I said " I had no clue of what you have been through. I am so sorry for bringing up your past."

"No it is alright. My past has made me who I am and has also made me stronger too" Tonya smiled "It still stings to think about, but I am thankful for what I do have here and now and focus on that.

Her words struck me, she may not have went through what I had but she had went through her own hell. Instead of letting the death of her loved ones be the death of her, she built from it and allowed it to make her stronger. Just like I was trying to do, though I often felt that I was failing at. I smilled at Tonya as I began to see her from a new light, I believe her and I might just become friends, something I haven't had in years.

She helped me get dressed and insisted I allow her to do my hair and make up as well. I agreed seeing I wasn't experienced in doing so at all. She did a beautiful natural make up look and had my hair curled with a few strands pinned back so they wouldn't fall in my face. I smiled at my reflection taken aback by how beautiful she made me look and feel. After today I would be discussing things with Blaine regarding Tonya.

Happy with my appearance, I turned to Tonya with a grin stretched across my face.

"Tonya you became a Warrior so that you can be strong and defend yourself and those you love if ever you were to end up in trouble again. You've accomplished that and by looking at you, you're pretty badass. I would like it if you would be the head event planner for our pack once we split the land. Not only that but my personal stylist for me and the kids, as obviously I have no clue what I am doing here. You've got the training but that doesn't mean you have to settle for the job if it's not what truly makes you happy" I said to her meaning every word.

"Really?" she smiled. "Do you really think Alpha Blaine will let me change my job for the pack?"

"He will when his mate suggests for it I am sure." I smiled at her. "Now let's get you dressed, I'd like for you to stand by my side at the reveal."

I could see a sparkle in Tonya's eyes as she got excited. We had my mom run us a few dresses up in Tony's size as quickly as she could. While we waited I watched Tonya do her hair and make up. She was amazing at it for sure. I felt good with my decision to promote her.

Running late we finally headed to the Community Center we lived about a mile from. Upon arrival my jaw dropped, the outside was absolutely beautiful. It is starting to turn fall so the leaves were colorful which made everything else seem that much more beautiful.

My mother had decorated everything with balloons, streamers, signs, and so much more. The inside was just as beautiful the theme being "she or he what will it be". She did amazing at not hinting with anything that there is more than one baby.

"Mom it's beautiful" I said approaching her. I walk slow now more or a waddle. She smiled at me.

"You are beautiful baby! You're late though so let's get this show on the road." She kissed my cheek and left me and Tonya up on stage where I was met with Blaine.

Blaine wore a powder blue tux with a light pink tie and pocket napkin. He looked handsome as ever and I could not help but stare at him. He met us and kissed my cheek.

"Beautiful" He smiled at me before turning to the crowd. "Now that Faye has arrived how about we do the reveal then all enjoy the wonderful food Jolene had catered to each location."

The crowed cheered before he calmed them down. He made sure all of the feeds were live from each location and that we could hear each other just fine. After we fixed any issues that we found my mother motioned to a large rectangular box covered behind us.

"Behind you, you will see the large rectangular box. First you are to sit down Faye, we don't want you standing to long on your feet. Faye you are to sit in the chair positioned behind the box. Once she is comfortable Alpha Blaine you are to rip the cloth off to reveal something BIG" My mother instructed.

Taking my seat where instructed I began to feel super excited. I knew before finding out the genders my mom had to announce that we were having triplets. Blaine smiled at me from the end of the box, before he jerked the cloth off in one swift movement.

Gasp were heard all over the room, though all I saw Infront of me was a large cardboard box. I assumed the front facing them said something about there being three. I was proven right when my mom stepped forward.

"As you can see, but for those who can't, it says Not one, Not Two, But yes there are three." she announced.

Cheers erupted again. Two men came on stage and took the box away before one brought back another smaller box. I was instructed to open the box. Inside was small three confetti canons.

Each had a number on it for each baby inside my stomach. I handed one to Blaine and the other to my mom. She smiled at me obviously happy that I chose her to do this part with us.

"On Three" I said. Blaine was on my right, my mom on my left, the numbers were in order. "Mom you first. count with us everyone."

"ONE TWO THREE!" everyone chanted.

POP! Out came Blue confetti and I grinned from eat to ear. Counting again I popped mine, which also was blue. Blaine was last and we all counted one last time and again blue. Three boys, lord was my hands full.

Cheers was heard all over as everyone chatted about the three boys that would soon join the family. I glanced at Blaine who was smiling at me. Tonya approached me with a black balloon, holding it in a specific way as if she was hiding something.

"I was instructed to bring this to you" She smiled

She slowly turned the balloon around and I gasp at what it said.

"surprise there is one more, there's not three of us but four"

"WHAT?!" I asked

"Your last scan showed baby number 4. The Dr was quick to inform me and I begged he not tell you so this moment would be special" my mom explained.

Tonya turned the balloon around for the crowd who also gasp. My mom handed me a pin and nodded at me to pop the balloon Tonya help. Holding my breath I popped the balloon and pink went everywhere. I screamed thankful to have both genders and that Blaine gets to have his daddy's girl too.
