Born Without Collarbones Novels & Stories

"There is something unusual about your child." My pulse thudded in my ears. My nails dug into my palms, pressing sharp crescents in my skin. "What? What's wrong with my baby?" "It isn't fatal," Dr. Mendez explained gently. "But the child shows signs of congenital weakness. Unless you receive the Wolf Mother's Bone within the next month, the baby may not survive."

she pleaded, with fear not leaving her entirety. “Take care of the kid, Beta,” he commanded as his legs leaped towards the source of the noise. When he arrived at the location, he was amazed with the unusual physical appearance of the newborn. There was no body, no arms and nor does the newborn possess legs and any other part of a body. Everything he is seeing before his eyes are made entirely of meters long hair. On the air, it sways with the light touch of the gust blowing haphazardly. Strands of it freely float on the air and with the moonlight, it revealed that the tips of each hair is as sharp as newly whetted blade.

This birthmark was identical to the faint memory I had. When I gave birth to Mia, I had lost so much blood that I passed out before I could even hear her cry. However, before blacking out, I distinctly remember seeing a small birthmark on her left arm. When I woke up, the birthmark was gone. Daniel and Marissa had both insisted I must’ve imagined it, blaming exhaustion and the chaos of childbirth for my confusion. Now, though? Seeing that same birthmark on Finn’s arm, the memories came flooding back.

She complained some more. "The older generation have home remedies. Isabella will probably know what to do! I am a couple of weeks ahead of you so I will give birth first. I can transfer the labor experience to you. Don't worry. But there are some things you need to be prepared for." She looked so serious that Ellis grew scared. "Please explain..." Ellis hesitated. "Have you noticed that they don't have belly buttons?" Laurel gave her a peculiar look. "Yes, I just couldn't comprehend it." Ellis had suspended all forms of disbelief.

He inquired, he couldn't imagine his daughter living a life of pain just because of their choices, he wouldn't want her to suffer because of them. " She will if and only if she's well taken care of and Nurtured. " " Is this all, doc? " " Hm, That reminds me, she might have some deformity in the parts of her body. " She noted. " Deformities like? " " Well, her toes might be more shortened when compared to others and she might also look paler than her peers but this can be prevented if she's getting the right multivitamins supplements. "

“Thank God, Winona.” “I know. That was so scary.” Jayden almost breaks me in half with his hug. Then he lets go. “He can just stop giving us a heart attack like that.” “That is for sure.” This sure brings back just how fragile Henry still is despite his milestones lately. “Will he be okay? Why did that just happen?” Jayden asks the nurses. “Most likely he’s not quite developed enough yet. Sucking and swallowing is something they practice in the womb with the amniotic fluid. Then they just need to add breathing to the mix outside of the womb.”

"It's so small." "About the size of a banana right now. But growing perfectly." She moved the wand. "Spine. See? All the vertebrae lined up. No neural tube defects." A tiny spine. Curved. Delicate. Complete. "Brain. Here's the cerebellum. Ventricles. Everything measuring normally." My baby had a brain. A working brain. "Arms. Hands. Let me count fingers. One, two, three, four, five. Perfect."

"She said. Annie and Klaus didn't know if they were supposed to be happy or sad. " I'll like to speak to you alpha"Dr Montgomery said. "Alpha, after deliveing the child, we discovered that the baby didn't cry yet he was alive. "During the operation, I saw the umbilical cord around his neck and that may have suppressed his vocal cords knowing that he is premature". "This is just temporary. With time, his vocal cords will come back to normal"Dr Montgomery said.

She told us. “Kitten, are you trying to ask for another kitten?” I asked. “Not exactly. One of the kittens is grey with darker grey stripes. She looks like a little tiger, but she was also born without a tail and is half as big as the others. She was also born without one eye. Gloria’s sister told Zoe that the veterinarian told her that it was a natural birth defect and that the kitten is healthy otherwise, but they don’t think anyone would want her because of how she looks.” Taelin added.

“Unfortunately, the prophecy reached the pack a bit late. Amarah was already a month old when it reached us. I don’t need to tell you how that happened because you already know the plight of our pack.” “There were twenty-eight babies born during that day from all the packs,” Gloria finally recalled in a low voice. “One of them was Amarah. As we had always known, once the baby comes out, there will be a small feature reflected on their appearances before it will vanish. Like the snouts before turning into a nose, pointy ears, paws and some would even have a tail.”
