The Alpha and his Mate

Chapter 14

~Month 1~

~Ellie~

I vomited hard into the toilet, hanging onto the cool sides. I never knew pregnancy could be so good, and yet so bad at the same time. I've been at the Baknor's palace for a couple of weeks now, and it has been wonderful. I never knew what it was like to be treated so well. I didn't have to clean, although I did as much as I could, because I knew what it was like. I got pampered and spoiled by Jasper.  I stood up and gripped the sides of the sink before splashing cool water on my clammy face.

"Ellie, dear are you okay?" I heard Mrs.Baknor call from the other side of the door. I walked out and forced a weak smile onto my face.

"I am fine Mam, thank you." She smiled back at me.

"Ellie, we are family now, please call me Mary or Mom." I wrapped my arms around her, I was amazed by how welcomed I felt in this family, even King Baknor seemed to be coming around a bit more.

"Okay, Mom." I smiled. Mary led me downstairs to eat, and I noticed Jasper and his pack memebers where nowhere in sight.

"Jasper had some Alpha business to attend too, he said he would be back tonight." She said, seeming to tell I was actively searching for my mate.

My Mate.

I still couldn't believe Jasper was all mine, I never would again be alone. I  ate my dinner slowly, my mind thinking about him. I also wondered, would our baby have his dark eyes and my red hair. I tried to participate in the conversation with Mary, but I was much to distracted.

After dinner, exhausted I flopped into our king sized bed. I have never felt anything so comfortable in all my life, it was like a cloud!

I awoke when I felt a bigger, much warmer body snuggle up to my own. The crisp woodsie smelled, let me know my mate had made his way back home. I struggled to kiss his lips in the dark, I was eager.

"Did you miss me that much Ellie?" He whispered, meeting my lips with his own. I just grunted at him before making my way ontop and continuing in to heavenly bliss.

~Month 3~

I stood infront of the mirror, my hand on my midriff. It was small, very small, but a bump was jutting out between my hip bones. I smiled at the thought of the bump being my baby. A product of Jasper and I's undying love for eachother. I pulled my shirt down just in time for Jasper to walk in.

"Hi Baby." He smiled, walking over wrapping his arms around me.

"Hi." I breathed, taking in his scent. I was still the luckiest girl in the entire world.

"Can you come with me, I have something for you." I nodded  confused. What on earth could Jasper have done now. I walked with him towards the beautiful lake on his property. I was taken back with how the water on the lake shone beautifully in the sunset. I watched as two swans swam across the lake, they were absolutely gorgeous.

"Jasper, thank you for showing this to me. I said turning around, I looked down to see him on  one knee and I was shocked. I couldn't believe what was happening. I was crying before the words even left his mouth.

"Ellie, I have loved you since the first moment I laid eyes on you. I am blessed beyond measures to have someone like you, someone so strong, and someone who loves me for who I am. You have proven to me , that I was the only one for you, you have proven your loyalty to me and my pack. I can't wait to be with you and our child, and future children forever. Ellie, would you do me the honor of becoming my wife, of being Ellie Baknor."

"Y-Yes" I choked out, I wasn't sure if it was the pregnancy hormones or the overwhelming feeling I was getting but I felt ontop of the world. He placed the most beautiful ring on my left finger, and I kissed him so passionately, that if it was possible, it would have set off fireworks.

~Month 5~

I groaned as I zipped up my wedding dress, it barely fitting over my now obvious swelled stomach. I looked fat, I felt fat. I groaned loudly again.

"Hey whats wrong?" Caroline asked, entering the room.

"My dress barley fits! I look fat!" I cried out. Caroline giggled.

"Ellie, you look absolutely stunning, and I'm sure Jasper will think so too." She clasped the necklace I was trying so desperately to get around my neck for me. Mentioning Jasper had me smiling and forgetting all my worries. I still couldn't believe how lucky I was.

~Jasper~

The wedding was astonishing and flowed beautifully into a lavish reception. Almost everyone in our kingdom was here. I recognized Wolves, Vampires, Witches, Faries even the Nymphs , who barely left their homes, was here. I was amazed by the amount of love that I was being shown, and the amount of love being distributed to my new bride. I watched Ellie as she laughed with a girl, Natalia, I recognized from the Vampire Coven east from here.

"Congratulations man." James clasped my back. I smiled at him.

"None of this would have probably been possible without you James." I offered him a beer. I was truly thankful for my pack brother, who did sacrifice a lot to insure Ellie and I had a future together.

"I was thinking, maybe I would like to have this with Caroline." He said, taking a sip.

"That would be great James." I said. James deserved so much happiness, and I'm glad he was able to find that within Caroline. I walked over to Ellie who was just finishing her conversation with Natalia, and wrapped my arms around her.

"Are you enjoying your special evening Mrs.Baknor." I smiled, kissing her cheek.

"I am, thank you for this, for everything." She smiled. I was taken back, as I always am when I'm with her. Ellie was my wife, something that sent my heart fluttering.

~Month 9~

 ~Ellie~

I woke up to a very wet feeling between my legs.

"O-Oh !" I cried out when a pain hit my middle. I felt like I was tearing apart and I screamed out loudly. Jasper came barreling into our room at the sound of my pain.

"Ellie, are you okay?" He rushed to my side as I stood up and leaned over the bed, breathing hard.

"N-no, that baby is coming now!" I screamed out in pain again, grasping my stomach. Jasper ran out and got his mother.

"Ellie, we must go to the pack doctor now." His mother placed her cool hand on my shoulder and guided me to the car. I was screaming in pain the whole ride.

It seems like it took forever, but finally I was ready to push.

"Okay Ellie, big push for me." The doctor demanded , as I pushed with all the strength I had in my body. I pushed for what seemed like hours, or days, my head was foggy from all the pain.

Then I heard it.

A loud, wet, healthy cry.

The cry of my baby.

"It's a GIRL!" The doctor said with excitement, placing the baby into my arms. I teared up as this beautiful little girl opened her eyes and met mine.

Jasper's eyes, her eyes, reflected back into mine. I was in awe of her.

"She's beautiful, you did amazing Ellie." Jasper said, placing a kiss ontop of my head, and placing  a gentle hand ontop of his new born daughter.

"So, what have you decided to name her?" The Doctor asked. I looked at Jasper, then back at our beautiful baby.

"Ariel Mae Baknor." Jasper announced. I couldn't be more please.

It  was a few days before we got to take Ariel home. Everyone was in as much awe as we where when they finally got to meet her. Even Jasper's father, who I did not really expect to react, was in awe.

"You're the prettiest princess in this palace, Grampie will buy you anything you want, yes he will." I heard King Baknor coo to Ariel as he carried her around. To think, once he was so dead against Jasper and I being together, and now , well it seems the tables have turned. I leaned my head against Jasper, and couldn't help but feel emotional.

I finally have the life I always wanted. I was happy
