My entire body trembles, the ground seeps it's coolness onto my skin and into my body. I lift myself up slightly only to fall back down onto the chilling tiled floor. My chained foot stuck to the floor like a magnet to metal. My vision spins and I feel sick in my stomach, my body is covered in bruises and cuts. My feet dangle in a pool of appears to be water. I'm to my surprise dressed, I was in wolf form there's no way my clothing would have stayed in tack. My body shudders with disgust, I feel internally and externally unclean.
"Imogen" a desperate voice echos. I lift my head enough to see my mate chained to the opposite wall. The stark white walls blind my already cloudy vision.
"Dean?" I question, propping myself up.
"Oh thank God you're alive, I thought you'd never wake up-"
A searing pain runs through my body starting in my abdomen, I grimace.
"What did they do to me?" I cry out.
"Baby, the stress, I think it's caused you to go into labor early" he replies.
"What do you mean, isn't my water supposed to break?" I look down at the pooled liquid around my feet.
"It happened while they were dragging us away, back here"
"What? How? I-"
"The tranquilliser they gave me wasn't strong enough to last the entire trip back to their base camp, but they must have give you more because you're pregnant"
"The pain-" I say falling down to the ground as my body gives way. I lie unable to move.
"Guard! Guard!" Dean shouts.
"What is it?" He replies angrily.
"She's giving birth, we need a doctor!" Dean shouts.
"Not until her contractions are one minute a part" he replies, "I've already told you that"
"It's freaking impossible for me to tell because the drugs you gave her have her passing in and out of freaking consciousness!" He yells loudly, his instincts kicking in. The guard rolls his eyes, 'fine'.
A male doctor enters, Dean looks at him angrily and then to me concerned. He looks between us,
"Is he your mate?" He asks. I nod slightly in response.
"Sweetheart it's your luck day, this process is going to be a lot less painful with him here"
"For me maybe, but not for you" I croak out.
"Look if I'm going to help you, you're going to turn down the sass, now how far a part are your contractions?" He asks.
"I don't know, everything just hurts" I reply.
"Jesus how much tranquilliser did they give you?" He asks rhetorically, "Vaughn you sick freak" he mumbles under his breath.
"I'm going to help you sit up now okay?" He says. I nod. As soon as his hands touch me Dean is growling and pulling at his chains.
"Woah look there buddy you're going to need to calm down for your own and your mates sake. I'm not going to hurt her, I'm just helping her sit up, alright?"
"Fine" Dean replies.
"What's your name?" He asks me.
"Imogen" I reply.
"Okay Imogen, my name is Jamie. What's your mates name?"
"Dean"
"Good" he says continuing to look at his watch and record my contractions. I cry out in pain, sweat drips down my face.
"Your contractions are very close now. Soon we'll start. Is this your first child Imogen?"
"Yes" I reply breathily.
"Boy or girl?"
"Boy"
"How old are you?"
"Eighteen"
"What's your rank?"
"Beta but I come from a line of Alpha's"
"What pack do you come from?"
"Starburst originally but I changed to my Uncles pack to be with my mate"
"That's very sweet. I'm assuming you have a brother"
"Yes. He's the Alpha of my old pack now. Why all these questions?"
"To distract you. It's working isn't it? See the last thing we need right now is for you or your mate to be stressed. The more you remain calm the less it's going to hurt and that's why having your mate here is helpful. When you start crowning we'll ask the guards to unchain him so he can be here to support you"
"But won't they say no?"
"Trust me I've very persuasive" I continue to grimace at the pain.
"Remember to breath. You too Dean"
"What's Vaughn going to do with me?"
"Now is not the time to think about that"
"But-"
"Imogen leave it" Dean says. A worried feeling washes over me and the pain intensifies. Dean struggles against his restraints,
"Let me help her please" he begs.
"Not yet" Jamie replies.
Minutes pass by but they seem like centuries.
"Alright, it's time, I'm going to get Dean freed. I will be back shortly and remember to breath" Jamie says and leaves.
"Dean I'm worried" I say painfully.
"Sweetie do not worry about Vaughn I won't let him hurt you or our baby"
"But how? You're tied up like a dog"
"Im do you really think a regular rogue doctor who 1) would be as experienced as ours is 2) be allowed to free a prisoner to prevent pain?" Sweetie we have people in high places undercover all over this pack, for similar situations such as these, we have planned for this. I promise you I will get you and our baby out of here"
Jamie enters the room, "you're looking more relaxed Imogen" he says, "I would expect the opposite"
"Everything's going to be okay" I say. He smiles at me fondly, Dean growls and pulls at his restraints.
Jamie grabs him by the face,
"Beta Dean" he begins in a hushed tone, "you need to get a hold on yourself, I am not going to hurt her, you know who I am. If you can't control yourself I'm going to have to keep you locked up, understood?"
Dean nods.
Jamie unlocks Dean's restraints, he rushes over to me and kisses me. Any pain I was feeling fizzles away momentarily. Jamie's voice brings me back to my scary reality.
"Alrighty" he says, "it's time to have a baby, now when I say push, push...push"
