Happy Ending Or Sadness To Come

877 Words
It had been about 6 months since Sara agreed to marry Shawn and become the Luna to the pack. It was only 3 weeks later that she had found out she was pregnant. Shawn was excited but also scared. He couldn’t remember what it was like raising his sister after their parents had died. Martha was beside herself when they had told her. “I knew having her spend time with you was going to be a good thing, Shawn.” She couldn’t stop rubbing Sara’s belly and talking to the baby. It made Sara happy to see everyone happy about the pregnancy. Sara was laying on the exam table when Shawn walked in. “Did I miss it? Am I too late to see if we’re having a boy or a girl?” Sara laughed and shook her head. “No, you’re just in time.” He grabbed her hand and watched the screen like a hawk. Sara was nervous. They never discussed any names or how they would raise him or her. The nurse put the gel on her belly and began looking at the baby. She made a weird face and excused herself. When she returned with another nurse Sara began to panic. “What’s wrong? Is the baby ok?” The nurse turned   to her with a smile and said, “I wanted to make sure what I was seeing was what I was seeing.” As the 2nd nurse turned up the speaker two different heart beats were heard. Shawn’s jaw dropped as he looked at Sara. Sara listened and began to cry. Shawn stood panicked like something was wrong with her. “Are you hurting her?” he asked, getting mad. “No sir. I think she’s excited.” after the nurse said that he noticed Sara nodding her head. “Congratulations! You’re having twins.” the 2nd nurse said. “Twin girls from the looks of it.” Shawn leaned in and kissed Sara. “Twin girls, wow.” Sara began to cry again. She was feeling everything at once. She was excited, scared, nervous, hungry and sick.  She still remembered that day. Now here she is, in her wedding dress, about to get married and very pregnant. Martha walked in and said, “Are you ready, Luna?” Sara nodded and took Martha’s hand as they walked towards the stairs. She slowly descended towards the pack as they bowed to her. She nodded to them as she walked past them to the door leading outside. Once outside she could see Shawn standing under an archway of flowers. Tears came to her eyes as she reflected on her life and great it had gotten all because of a hunter chasing her into his path. It brought a smile to her face. She finally reached Shawn and he reached for her hand. She took it and stood facing him. As the preacher was reading the vows, Shawn looked at her and whispered, “I love you.” Sara giggled and whispered back, “I love you too.” Finally it was time to put the rings on and then kiss the bride. Since her bell had gotten so big she leaned towards him to kiss him. The whole pack cheered and clapped as they turned to face them. Martha stepped forward and said, “Now that you’re married by human law it’s time to marry you by wolf law.” Sara and Shawn nod with a smile.  Martha takes a rope soaked in wolfsbane and wraps it around their holding hands. “With this rope it shows your weakness but your strength through it all will always be each other and your pack.” She turned to Shawn. “Do you accept Sara as your mate and as your pack’s Luna?” Shawn looked at Sara and said, “Yes I do. I will from now till forever.” Martha turned to Sara. “Do you accept Shawn as your mate, your Alpha and the Alpha of our pack?” Sara looks at Shawn as tears fall down her face. “I do for as long as I live.”  Martha steps closer and turns to the pack placing a hand on Sara’s belly. “Do you accept that one day these twins will be your Luna’s and follow their leadership?” The pack looks at Sara’s belly and says, “We will follow our Luna’s and defend them with our lives. Martha nods and raises Shawn and Sara’s hands. “The mating ritual is complete. Welcome your Alpha, Shawn, and his mate, Luna Sara.” Everyone in the pack cheered. As everyone walked up to congratulate them Sara saw movement from the trees. She turned to look and noticed Cassie standing behind a tree glaring at her sister. Sara couldn’t help but shiver. If looks could kill she’d be dead. Cassie looked at Sara’s belly and moved her finger across her throat. Sara gasped realizing what it meant.
