It's Dark Outside

Are You Sure

Ell’s P.O.V.

        That poor doctor. She came in with a bright red face, and I was positive she heard me moaning a few moments ago. I could smell how aroused she was, but she was making a good effort to not show it. Samara teased her some about it, but after I pinched her side she stopped.

        The moment we were outside fire, oak, cinnamon, citrus and cut grass. I looked to Sam as she did the same thing.

        “Sam! Ell!”

        We turned to see Ranger, Royce, Redford, and Jack running for us. The only one not in wolf for was Ranger. I smiled big, our men were home. I launched myself onto Jack, feeling his fur under me was comforting. Sam greeted the Kings first, then moved to Jack while I went to the triplets.

        (We’ve missed you two.) Royce said snuggling into my chest.

        I giggled. (We missed you all too.)

        Red licked Samara’s face. (Hmm…)

        (What is it?) She asked tilting her head to the side.

        I let out a sudden yelp when I felt a very large tongue run across my slit. I turned to see Jack giving me a mischievous look.

        (Jack, you can’t do that out here! What if a pup saw?) I scolded, but a throat clearing drew all our attentions.

        “Welcome home Alpha Kings, and Master Chief.” She said with a bow. “You came at a good time. I have the results for the blood test. Do you know what the symptoms of Feral Fever are?”

        In an instant Royce, Jack, and Red all shifted back. Completely flashing the doctor, who attempted to ignore that fact and be professional.

        Royce nodded. “Yeah, is that what’s going on?”

        “I don’t know anything about Wulfkin, so no.” Jack said running his hand through his hair.

        Giovanna let out a deep breath. “Well, they are night sweats, fever, hot flashes, fainting spells, fatigue, loss of appetite-“

        “Is that what it is?!” Red growled out.

        I sighed and gave the now terrified doctor. “He’s impatient.”

        “And he’s not the only one.” Ranger snapped.

        Giovanna trembled, as a result of the increased anger coming from her superiors. “The Queen and Princess are pregnant!”

        We all stared at her for a minute. Her words came out rushed and I don’t think any of us processed what she said for a while.

        “Are you sure?” Red finally asked, his eyes a slightly darker red. “Is that why they smell and taste different?”

        Giovanna nodded. “Yes, my King. They conceived…on the same day too. About two weeks ago.”

        I blushed thinking about that day.

        “And your positive. Completely positive, because do you see them right now?” Sam said pointing to our males.

        She nodded. “I ran it three times.”

        Ranger let out a noise close to a howl as he rushed over to scoop up Sam and twirl her around. “We’re going to have pups!”

        Jack wrapped his arms around me. “Are you okay, rain?”

        “No. Yes. What was the question again?” I was having a meltdown.

        I was young. Not even eighteen yet, and Erebus was right.

        ‘When your body is ready, it will accept his sperm and you’ll be carrying his pup.’

        I looked over at Jack and smiled. “I’m fine, really. I’m glad we don’t have Feral Fever. And…I’m going to have a baby.”

        Red, Royce, and Ranger were busy smothering Sam.

        “In about eight months we’ll have four royal little pups to deliver.” Giovanna said with a smile before leaving the family alone to celebrate.
