Second Chance Luna
Chapter 106

"Jason? Jason?"

He groaned, slowly opening his eyes to see he now lay on the bed while Phoebe stood at his side holding his hand. Blinking, Jason tried to clear his head before suddenly turning bright red.

"Did I?"

"You did," Phoebe chuckled as he ran a hand through his hair and sat up.

'You fell like a rock,' Lobo snickered.

They were in the same examine room as before but the machine had been set aside and Phoebe was now cleaned up. His gaze fell on her round stomach. Before he even thought about it he reached out to gently caress it. Were there really two pups in there? "I didn't dream that last part, did I?"

"No. Twins," Phoebe smiled handing him the three-dimensional ultrasound picture with two little ones huddled close together.

It had taken some finagling for Doctor Evans to finally get a shot of them together. By the time she was done Phoebe's bladder was ready to burst and she ran immediately to the bathroom while the doctor called for some nurses and orderlies to pick up their unconscious king. When Phoebe returned they were ready to wake him up.

"Twins," Jason repeated. He still couldn't believe it. "Is everything-are they..."

"Yes, Doctor Evans says everything looks good and they are a little small but there are two of them in a space meant for one. She's going to contact some human doctors she knows to replace out how they handle multiple-births and create a plan for me." Jason nodded, taking a deep breath. That was a sound idea. He had never heard of a werewolf birthing multiple pups before so it made sense to consult with human doctors. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on Ebookex.com.

From what he understood, multiple-births were not common for humans either but they did happen frequently enough for them to know how to handle them safely. It seemed everything had been handled without the need for his input. Jason felt his face warm again. He couldn't believe he actually fainted. "Jason, are you all right?"

"...I just feel so embarrassed. I just want to crawl in a hole."

"Would a nice shoulder and neck massage help?" Phoebe asked running her fingers through his hair, sending jolts of pleasure through their bond.

"Mmm, maybe," Jason said, his gaze now glowing amber.

"I expect reciprocation," Phoebe warned. "A foot and a back massage would be heavenly."

"I'll never say no to touching you," Jason smiled, finally getting off the bed and embracing her.

Her belly pressed against him as he captured her mouth, hungry to taste her. He groaned wanting nothing more than to take her to bed immediately when the sensation of being kicked forced him to step back and look at her stomach. Phoebe chuckled. "I think your boy is saying he and his sister need their space."

Jason growled, stroking her stomach, "Well, he's going to learn to share."

"I could say the same thing for his daddy."

He kissed her again. When it came to their pups he wouldn't mind sharing at all.

"Come on, everyone is waiting," Phoebe tugged him toward the door.

He was reluctant but the promise of massages later soothed him enough to follow her to the waiting room where Blake, Emma, his mother, Luke and Mona, Ben and Lucille, Bridget and even Dash waited to hear their news. After Phoebe recovered from her abduction the warrior put in for a transfer choosing to join his mate's pack. Though Dash would always be grateful to Alpha Zain and Luna Chandler for their support, joining Blue Moon meant not just staying with his mate but also protecting Phoebe and her pups. "Mommy! Daddy!" Emma squealed, running up to them the moment she saw them.

Jason scooped her up and nuzzled her. Blake was s step behind his sister and just as eager, "Did you see the baby?"

"Babies," Phoebe correct.

"Babies?" Norah repeated.

Phoebe nodded before handing her one of the ultrasound pictures as she shared the other with Blake and Emma, "See, this is your little brother and sister."

"Twins!" Lucille exclaimed looking at the picture her mother held, "are you shitting me?"

"Language!" Norah admonished. "Twins? Is it true?"

Phoebe nodded, "Helen thought she heard a heart murmur on my last scan and there was a little bit of a shadow on the ultrasound she dismissed."

"But it really was a second pup," Norah surmised.

"Werewolves only ever have one pup so we didn't even consider the possibility of twins but...it's twins."

"Damn, you are going to get huge!" Ben scoffed.

"Really!" Lucille slapped his shoulder. "That's all you have to say?"

"Daddy, what are going to do when mommy is this big?" Emma stretched out her arms.

"Well, I'll just have to hug her a whole lot tighter and kiss her a whole lot more," Jason smiled giving Phoebe a look that promised more than that.

"Jason, where are we going?" Phoebe laughed.

They had just delivered the news to the pack and endured near riotous cheers for their good fortune. The packlink practically buzzed with their excitement. They were already planning how to welcome their prince and princess, which reminded Jason and Phoebe they would have to officially announce the news to the Council and the other packs now that they bore the titles King and Queen. But that was a task for tomorrow.

Right now, Phoebe just wanted to relax in their room, off her feet. Jason; however, had other ideas. As soon as they arrived on the alpha floor he led her to a door she had never entered before and told her to close her eyes.

There were several rooms she hadn't explored even after all this time thinking they weren't her business but Jason claimed this room was meant for her. He opened the door and carefully led her inside.

"I wanted this to be a birthday gift but it was too hectic at the time with everything going on. Happy belated birthday," Jason intoned, "and Merry Solstice."

Phoebe chuckled knowing the holiday was right around the corner. There was a lot of planning to do for the pack. In addition, as king and queen they were also expected to hold a special royal ball. It was a lot on her plate but Norah, Mona and Lucille were happily planning alongside her. She was just glad she would not be celebrating the holiday alone. This year, she had a mate, pups, family and pack all wanting to be at her side.

"Open your eyes," Jason urged.

Phoebe blinked her eyes as her gaze fell on a cozy study. Dark, floor to ceiling shelves stood ready for books. Two, large antique chairs were situated near a large, bay window which let in plenty of natural light. A gas fireplace with a wide mantel made her feel instantly at home. The carpet was thick and firm, accentuated by a large, Persian rug. There was a rolling latter attached to a track so she would have easy access to even the highest shelves. It was warm and inviting even with the boxes of books carefully lined up ready for sorting.

"Jason?"

"What do you think?" Jason asked, standing behind her with both hands settling on her stomach. "Your own sanctuary." Phoebe leaned against him, "When did you do this?"

"It started as soon as you arrived. I wasn't sure I'd be able to keep it secret especially when it came time to install everything but luckily my Luna is quite studious when it comes to the early education of our pack pups."

He growled low but to her ears it was more like a purr as he nuzzled and nibbled her neck. She shivered with the sensations he was sending through her.

"Well? Do you like it, my angel?" Jason muttered.

"No...I love it! Thank you!"

Phoebe turned holding his face before kissing him fully and passionately. Jason had no qualms about letting her take the lead. He loved her assertive side.
