The Emergence Of The Alpha Twins ( UNDER REVISING )

28. Hearing My...Pups?

"What is this? How do I hear 'the pups.'" I look at Gabby as she pulls her shirt above her stomach. It isn't that large. Barely. Just a small lump and anyone would've thought she ate to many wings for dinner.

"Just try listening for heartbeats or anything in here," she pats her stomach, and I roll my eyes," I doubt you're even pregnant. This is ridiculous."

"You know what else is ridiculous!?"

"Nope." Shockingly enough I thought I'd be mad and yelling at her. But all we're doing is bickering like how my parents did when I was younger.

"Just...just believe that there's living beings inside and that they're yours. That nothing can com between that sound and you. Try at least. Only the father can hear the sounds of the heartbeats or beat."

I nod, leaning back in the couch as I close my eyes. As I think of her stomach thoughts that come back to me is how she became pregnant. It wasn't discussed or anything, almost forced. These...these things are just the proof of the force she made me use to make her pregnant.

"Do you hear it?"

"All I hear is you voice." I hiss, opening my eyes as she has her arms folded.

"This isn't gonna work."

"What? What do you mean?"

"This," I gesture to her stomach and me," I'm not meant to be a dad. Especially to wolf pups. And I never asked for this."

"You're being selfish."

I shrug, standing off the couch as I'm not even trying to hear whatever sound she's hoping for.

Before I can walk away her hand grasps mine. And she tugs on it, but barely, there's no effect. I look at her, her eyes desperate, begging for me to listen to what is about to come.

"I was selfish when I changed you. There's no denying that...but I didn't do it because I just wanted you to be one. Not for the fun of it. I knew it would cause you pain and discomfort, but I thought if you just listened and understood where I was coming from... You wouldn't hate me."

"I don't hate you."

"You said you did...and I believed it for a few seconds. I've been thinking over what you said, and everything that I've done... And I think that I can switch you back human if it means that you'll love me again..."

"I'll always...I'll always love you." I find myself saying, her eyes digging into mine as she sighs.

"I'm sorry for biting you without your consent. I only did exactly what I thought was...right at the moment, but my heart was bigger than my head. I changed you and then bit you, and I'm so sorry...I just don't want you to hate me."

I look away from her, I don't hate her. I was just saying things in the spur of the moment. Honestly, there has been a piece of me missing while I tried to hide the fact that I do miss her. I always will, I was just hurt, and I didn't understand. But if I was a...werewolf and in love with her... I guess it's like what the twins did. They couldn't help themselves, because Renee is their mate, so it was unconsciously done.

"Liam...? I'm hanging on a thin rope here..."

"I'm not mad at you anymore. It's like what Ernest and Dexter did to Renee. Yes, she was angry in the beginning, but soon she fell in love with them and realized it was all out of love. And...I believe that's what you were trying to do."

Gabby's eyes became watery, a smile slowly coming to her lips. I found myself smiling, and when she opened her arms, I fell into them. Instantly, feeling a piece of me come back to life. And it had me laughing with joy.

To smell her scent that wasn't there the last time I was with her. When I was human she smelled like nothing, now that I'm this way, she has a sweet lilac scent.

She giggles, and I hug her tightly, then all of a sudden I hear a heart beat.

It's soft...and gentle...mellow even...

Soon after another one joins in, and a sweet harmony collides as the beats continue. They echo in my ears, slowly fading away as I try so desperately to hear them even more.

"Liam...?"

"Two." Is all I say, looking up at her as her eyes fill with excitement.

"Twins?"

"Yes." I smile and she smiles too. I hear the heartbeats again, making my heart clench with happiness.

The other day I was resenting the fact that I might be a father. Now that I'm hearing the sounds of their heartbeats, so early and it seems so impossible, it makes me have this urge. To have this urge to see who these babies are...to see how they will look...

"Wait. Since you are a wolf, wouldn't you be pregnant for-."

"2.2 months? Yes. It's already been a week, so a human female would be pregnant for nine months. But don't worry, you'll be seeing the...twins in two months. It's not that long of a wait..."

I nod excitedly, standing as I pull her up with me.

"What will we name them? Who should we tell? How - when - where-."

"Don't worry. We'll figure it all out later. Lets just..." She hugged me, and I hugged her back, missing the small things that I used to do with her like this.

Is this what happiness and love feel like...?
