~Ayan Pov~

“Push! Ayan! Push!” 

I shot the doctor a glare, but it held no real bite. I know he’s trying to help but got damn it, I am pushing! I’m giving it all I got. Pain shot through me right when I went to open my mouth, the intent to tell the doctor to shove it. 

I whimper but push with the contraction. 

Aithne gently squeezes my hand. “I’m here, baby. I’m here. Your doing so well. “ 

I wish I could say my mate’s voice brought comfort, but it only aggravated me more. 

“Please, all of you shut up,” I said through clenched teeth. 

I already know I feel guilty for snapping at them, but I need to focus, and I can’t do that with all their yapping. 

“Daddy.” I whimpered. 

Daddy ran forward and smoothed a hand on my forehead. “Yes, baby.” 

“Please make them all shut up,” I whined breathlessly. 

He laughed and kissed my head. “Anything you want. You got this baby.” 

I nodded, and with a newfound determination, I started to move. 

“I need to get up.” I ignored the nurse and doctor’s complaint telling me it wasn’t the best right now, but they can all kiss my ass. I turn over and kneel, giving on the top of the hospital bed. 

I took a deep breath and grabbed my daddy's hand.

I hyped myself up and waited for the contraction to hit. “No weak shit because baby girl.” I look down to my stomach. “You got to go.” 

*****

(N/A I’ve never given birth, so I have no experience with it, so we’ll skip over it, lol.) 

“You did a good job, baby. I'm so proud of you.” My daddy was in awe. “She's beautiful.” 

“Thank you.” I couldn't contain my joy.

It was right in life. I have my mate by my side. The pack was okay again. Darius got and dealt with it. I no longer had to worry. 

And now, I had my baby girl in my arms; she was happy and healthy. 

She looked just like her mom. She was a carbon copy.

“Well, Let's hope she gets your personality.” Aithne laughed. She must have heard my thoughts through the link. 

“It's like I was just an incubator for you.” I joked. “Just kicked my genes to the side. We should name her Aithne twin instead.” 

We laughed and gathered around. 

“Ummm, no,” Aithne said. “I like the name we picked out.” 

Daddy raised a brow. “Care to share with the class. Your papa and I have waited long enough.”

I looked down at my beautiful baby girl and smiled. “Aaliyah. Aliyah Genevieve Umbra.” 

Daddy grabbed my hand and squeezed. “Beautiful.” 

This is right here. This moment, this chapter in my life. This was what I always wanted, and now I have it. 

~5 months later~

“So?” I asked. The suspense was killing me. 

Darius had eventually been caught and detained. It was determined by the higher power that he had gone insane due to the elder's “involvement” with him. 

They had tortured and dragged him to mold him into the perfect pet for their bidding. 

The elders had been charged and stripped of their position in the pack. 

They have been replaced, and the pack is doing much better because of it. 

“He's been cleared of all charges and will spend a good portion of his life in a mental facility receiving from what the elder did,” Michael said.  

Speaking of Michael. Micheal was the replacement for Darius, the third alpha of the pack. 

He's been doing a fantastic job and bonded fast with Owen and Aithne. Thankfully. 

“He's gonna be okay, my love,” Aithne said, grabbing me by the hand. “I made sure of it.” 

When aithne heard what the elders did to Darius, using his crush for her, it further manipulated him. She instantly made sure he would get the help he needed. 

We forgave him in the end because it wasn't his fault. 

I hugged my mate and enjoyed her warmth. 

“I'm glad he's getting the help he needs.” 

Aithne squeezed me tighter. “Me too.”

“Why Don't you and Henry go get ice cream?” Owen said. “My treat.” 

I smiled. “New craving?” 

Owen nodded. “Yup.” 

Henry was four months pregnant, and the guy had a new craving every week. It drove Owen up the wall, especially when he had to get up at three in the morning to get a cherry limeade from Sonic because Henry swore up and down the baby wouldn't let him sleep without it. 

“You no longer need to worry, okay.” my mate said. “Everything is okay.” 

“What about the man who murdered you?” I questioned. 

“The higher power is on it, and he won't get away with it,” Owen said seriously. “Now go, Henry, waiting for you.” 

I sighed. They went right, and it wasn't my job to worry about it. 

“Okay, I'll go.” I turned around and stepped away from my mate. “But just know I'm going because I want to.” 

I had to leave with some dignity. 

They all laughed and nodded. 

“Yes, sir.” Aithne saluted. 

I rolled my eyes and turned to leave.

 “You guys have to pick up Aaliyah from my parents, too,” I called over my shoulder. 

They groaned and laughed. They would need all the luck in the world. 

My parents love spending time with the granddaughter, which usually results in an hour's worth of attempts to get her back. 

“Ayan, are you ready?” Henry called from the hall. “I need cookies and creams Ben and Jerry’s in my mouth 20 minutes ago.” 

I smiled. 

Hmmm, I love my life. 

N/A: Here is a little epilogue to end everything for real. I hope you all enjoy it. 

Love you guys 

Kazzy out!
