Lahat ng Kabanata ng Midnight On The Bayou: Kabanata 121 - Kabanata 130

I leaned in and whispered, "So, are we going to get on with it?" Kael chuckled, still clearly surprised by my boldness. "How about food and a shower first? Unless you're about to explode or something." "I might," I replied with a smirk. "But I'd rather not throw up on you, so..." We headed to the dining room to grab some food. The meal was delicious, but I barely tasted it. My mind was elsewhere, thinking about how much I needed him. As soon as we were done eating, I turned to Kael and said, "Shower. Now." The words were barely out of my mouth before I dragged him into the bathroom. I was all over him, aggressively making out, pressing against him, my hands roaming across his chest and abs. It was like I couldn't get close enough, couldn't get enough of him. Kael, trying to stifle his growling, said, "Whoa, whoa. You don't want to hurt me, do you?" "I don't know, maybe." I shot him a playful grin. That did it. The growl-laced moan that escaped his lips told me he was clearly

Koda and Kage came barreling toward me with the boundless energy only young pups could muster. Their faces lit up with mischievous grins as they tried to sneak a peek at my belly. I fought them off as they repeatedly tried to get my shirt up. "Hey, hey!" I laughed, backing away and playfully blocking their advances. "You can't see anything yet, guys. They are the size of...a strawberry. Two strawberries won't make my belly bigger yet." Koda pouted dramatically. "But Cassy said it was twins like us!" He pointed a finger at Kael, Knox, and Kyran, his expression playfully scornful. "That they won't look alike like they do," he added before turning back to me with a wink that could melt hearts. It was clear they were eating up the fact that the twins were obviously fraternal like them. I couldn't help but smile at their charm. "You two could charm the moon, I swear." I turned to Knox. "Were you three like this when you were younger? For real. No cockiness." Knox chuckled. "Yeah, ma

The next few weeks settled into a kind of rhythm at the townhouse, a delicate balance between comfort and suffocation. The guys hovered around me like I was made of glass, watching each movement with an intensity that bordered on paranoia. It was sweet, but I also felt like I was living in a bubble. They treated me like I was the most precious thing in the world, and while that was endearing, it could be suffocating at times. Kael and Gerald continued their meetings. They chose to meet at the townhouse more often, mostly because I couldn't stand to be in a car for more than five minutes without feeling queasy. The morning sickness was relentless, and just the thought of driving made my stomach churn. Kael's patience was commendable, but Gerald's skepticism was etched into his very being. Kael had gone back to the original doctor who'd diagnosed his seizures to get a clean bill of health, hoping to put his dad's doubts to rest. But Gerald wasn't buying it. He kept pointing out th

Kael shifted uncomfortably beside me in the makeshift pillow fort in the bathroom. "Do you think you could move back to the bedroom yet? As much as I love these forts, I'm sore as hell and really want to sleep in a bed." I managed a smile, the relentless nausea giving me a brief reprieve. "Yeah, guess you haven't been in your room yet." "No, why?" "Go look," I suggested with a slight chuckle. He got up, a bit stiff from the floor, and trotted out, calling over his shoulder to his brothers, "It's okay to reappear, guys!" Stepping out of the bathroom, I grabbed an actual lemon from the kitchen counter. The Lemonheads and tea weren't cutting it anymore, and I hoped the sour tang would help. Sucking on the lemon, I made my way to the bedroom. Kael's voice echoed with delight from the bedroom, and when I entered, I saw why. The room had been transformed. Two king-size beds had been pushed together and attached to create one massive bed. It made total sense for three guys over six

Gerald stood in the hallway, listening to the chaos as Kael paced back and forth, his excitement bubbling over into noticeable energy. Missy noticed Gerald and walked over to him. "Honey, it's great news!" she said with a huge smile on her face. "Our first grandchildren! Children! Two!"He nodded, a subtle grin spreading across his face. "I know, darling. I heard. Two more Monroes... the world isn't going to know what hit it." He entered the room and walked over to Kael, who stopped pacing long enough to hug his father awkwardly. Gerald patted his son on the back and said, "I need to get back to patrol."Kael sighed, clearly reluctant to leave the excitement, but he nodded. "Yeah, I probably should, too." They left, with Knox joining them at the last second, leaving me and Ky alone.The situation suddenly hit me. The healer's comment about the girl being a week and a half older started to make sense in the context of the werewolf maternity calendar. My thoughts spiraled. What if th
