A Nerd for the Hockey Alpha Captain Chapter 75: The Holding List
Day two of four.Lyra and Damon were 24 hours old and already had a waiting list.Not a cute, little list. A real, written-on-cardboard-by-Pip, taped-to-PackHouse-fridge list that said in wobbly crayon:HOLDING LIST FOR LYRA AND DAMON GREY1. Elara and Hope (ALREADY DONE) (SISTERS PRIVILEGE)2. Maya and Nia3. Caelum (has clean hands)4. Luna (will cry but okay)5. Vex and Aria (if they promise not to be scary)6. Number 2 (if he brings cake again)7. Everyone else8. Pip LAST because he fell off chair yesterdayFifty wolves were not on the list. They were offended. They sat outside the bedroom door, whining.I was propped up in the blanket nest, finally able to sit without feeling like my body would split in half. Lyra was on my left, swaddled in white that Elara had picked. Damon was on my right, swaddled in black that Hope had picked. Both grey in the middle. Both staring at nothing and everything with those new eyes that couldn't focus but somehow saw everything.Kai was standing
A Nerd for the Hockey Alpha Captain Chapter 74: Mirror Day
Morning after naming. Day one of four.I hadn't looked in a mirror in 38 weeks. Not really.I saw belly. I saw stretch marks that looked like lightning. I saw paws kicking from inside. I saw Kai's face when he looked at me like I was a whole galaxy he couldn't believe he got to live in. But I hadn't seen me. The me underneath all that becoming.Lyra and Damon were asleep on my chest. Both at once, finally, after a night of taking turns crying so the other could sleep. A system they invented at 2 hours old and stuck to. One white-grey, one black-grey, breathing in sync like they had choreographed it inside me for nine months. Lyra's tiny white fuzz against my left, Damon's black fuzz against my right. Balance, even in sleep.Kai was asleep sitting up, back against the nest wall, hand still on my ankle, even in sleep. Gold mark dim, finally resting. He hadn't let go since I pushed the second one out. His other hand was holding an empty water bottle and a cold cloth he kept forgetting to
A Nerd for the Hockey Alpha Captain Chapter 73: Lyra and Damon
Two howls. Still ringing in the PackHouse walls, in the wood, in my ribs.Two pups on my chest. Still wet. Still warm. Still deciding if they liked this world or wanted to go back.Kai was still sobbing against my forehead. Gold tears on my skin, on their tiny fuzz, on the blanket nest that Elara and Hope spent a month making perfect and I had just ruined with birth fluid and everything else. I had never seen him cry like this — not when we fought in the training circle, not when we mated under the full moon, not when Hope came early and scared us all half to death. This was different. This was wrecked, silent, alpha-on-his-knees, forehead-to-mine, can't-breathe crying."Hey," I whispered, my voice completely gone, hoarse from screaming. "You're scaring them.""They should be scared," he choked out, but he was laughing through the tears, gold eyes blown wide, mark burning hot where his skin touched mine and theirs. "Their dad is absolutely useless. First-time dad of twins, zero experi
A Nerd for the Hockey Alpha Captain Chapter 72: Two Howls
Week 38.I was huge. Like, can't-see-my-feet, can't-sleep, Kai-has-to-help-me-stand-up huge."They're ready," Nia said, hands on my stomach, white light flickering. "Grey doesn't wait for 40 weeks. Balance wants to be born."PackHouse was quiet. Too quiet. Everyone was in the kitchen pretending not to panic.Kai hadn't left my side in 3 days. Gold mark burning hot against my skin, his hand never leaving me."You're shaking," I whispered to him."You're doing all the work and I'm useless," he whispered back, kissing my forehead. "So yeah. Shaking."Then water broke. Not cute like in movies. All over the blanket nest Elara and Hope spent a month making perfect."IT'S TIME! IT'S TIME!" Hope screamed so loud 50 wolves howled from the forest.Maya and Nia were already there. Maya with towels, Nia with her staff glowing full white."PUSH, little Grey," Nia said. "Show us what two look like."I pushed. Kai held my hand so tight I thought he'd break it. I screamed. He screamed too, gold eyes
A Nerd for the Hockey Alpha Captain Chapter 71: The Baby Shower
Nia said Grey pups need a Grey shower."What does that even mean?" Vex asked, holding a pile of blankets he stole from somewhere."It means we don't do pink and blue," Nia said, thumping her staff. "We do white, black, grey, and gold. Balance."PackHouse had never been decorated before. War doesn't need decorations.Now it had everything.Maya strung white lights across the kitchen. Luna and Aria painted a banner that said WELCOME TINY JUDGES in crooked black letters. Number 2 made a cake that was grey on the outside and white and black swirled inside when you cut it. He cried when it worked.And in the middle of the living room, the blanket nest was bigger than ever. Elara and Hope had been working on it for a week, making it pup-safe. Extra soft. No hard toys.I sat in it, week 16 now, showing just enough that Kai kept staring at it like it might disappear if he blinked."Stop staring," I whispered to him."Can't," he whispered back, hand on it, gold mark warm. "There are two in the
A Nerd for the Hockey Alpha Captain Chapter 70: The First Kick
One month after war.PackHouse had a garden now.Not Nia's herb garden. A real one. With carrots. Because Hope said she wanted to grow the soup herself and not just cut it.Elara and Hope worked it every morning, white marks with grey edges glinting in the sun. Two Whites who were not just Whites anymore. Caelum called them Grey-Whites and then laughed for an hour when Elara said that sounded like a kind of mushroom.I was in the garden too, but not working.Sitting. Because Nia said sitting is working when you are growing a pack inside your pack.Kai knelt in the dirt in front of me, his hands big on my knees, gold eyes not Alpha now, just... dad."Anything?" he whispered, for the third time that morning."Kai, it's week 10, you won't feel—"And then it happened.Not a kick. A flutter. Like a tiny grey wing inside me. Like Lira's heart when I first split it.My grey mark flared. Not bright. Warm.Kai's eyes went wide. Gold light from his mark mixing with my grey, right over my stomac
