Chapter 67 – Celeste
Celeste P.O.V.
Twins, I was pregnant with twins. That’s what Kara just told me as I looked at the two little beans on the monitors. I looked at Markus who grinned at me, his eyes full of joy and happiness. I looked back at the monitors. How could my life possibly get any better? As ifon cue, reality crashed down on me as I thought those words and I remembered everything that just happened and I felt a pang of panic.
Danny. I looked back at Markus.
“Danny, where’s Danny? Sandra shot him,” I asked desperately.
“Over here, Luna!” I heard and my head snapped to the side. There was Maya standing next to Danny, who was sitting on a bed. the looked a little pale and had several ivy’s on his hand but he was fine. He was alive. Our moon goddess heard my pleas. I leaned back with
relief against Markus, the bond sparks bursting from my side comfortingly. We were all OK.
“What happened to Sandra?” I asked, remembering her seeing her as everyone arrived.
“She was on fire when we arrived. She dove into the river to put the fire out and we have her detained in the cells along with Alpha
Geoff and the rest of his group,” Gillian answered. I nodded, looking back at the monitor.
“Would you like some pictures Luna?” Dr. West asked and I nodded again. I was too filled with happiness to talk anymore. I was still
really tired and I yawned.
“You should rest. We still have that meeting in the morning.” Markus chuckled though I could sense exhaustion coming from him
too. I turned to say good night to everyone when I saw that no one wanted to move. I laughed and motioned for them to come forward
with my hands. The girls all rushed me and the men all went to hug Markus, who couldn’t stop grinning from ear to ear as we received
Maya was last and she cried as she hugged me. “You saved him. Thank you,” she cried. I patted her back soothingly.
“He saved me first,” I reminded her, and when she finally calmed down she returned to her side next to Danny. I turned to Kelly and Rhett and smiled at them as I saw him holding her around the waist.
“I am happy to see you both found each other. Kelly will make a great Luna, Rhett. And now you can come by more often so she can
see us and you can get some baked goods. It’s perfect.”
He grinned at me. “I look forward to having our packs become more than allies. I believe a bunch of my people mated with your
people today. It is as if Selene is giving her approval to our alliance.” I smiled at his words, knowing them to be true.
Dr West handed me the first picture of our pup and, as if knowing what he was dealing with, he handed a copy to everyone before
shoo’ing them out. I moved to the right of the bed and patted the empty side for Markus to crawl in, knowing that he wasn’t going to leave me tonight. He crawled under the covers and rested his head on my shoulder. Both of us looked down at the little picture of our
pups as we settled in to sleep.
“Good night,” Maya said and I saw she had crawled in with Danny as the hospital partitions were pulled by the nurses to allow us to
sleep.
Ileaned the bed down into sleep position and felt myself fall into a dreamless sleep. Almost completely content with my life.
Tomorrow would be a big day. Everything we had worked on for the last few months would come to fruition. We would free my friends.
We would bring justice to everyone that lost their lives in the m******e that took the lives of my parents.
I heard movement and opened my eyes. Dr West was reviewing some monitors and making notes. He saw I was awake and smiled.”
Good Morning Luna. I think you can go home. I will draw up your discharge papers shortly. Everything looks perfectly normal. You and the
pups are in perfect health. I’ll be giving you some vitamins for you to take with you.” I thanked him as Markus woke up next to me.
“I’ve been given the all clear,” I told him with a kiss. “What time is the meeting with the council again?”
“10am,” he said, helping me off the bed. We looked outside the partition and saw that Danny and Maya had already left.
He pulled out his phone. “8:30, we should go change and get ready,” he said. He quickly mind linked someone. Dr West gave me
prenatal vitamins and scheduled some appointments for us and then we left the hospital. We walked into the Pack House. Maya had a
couple of plates of breakfast coming out of the kitchen. Danny at her side, munching on a biscuit.
“I’ve got some breakfast for you guys,” she said brightly, “Danny’s going to set up the conference for the meeting so you have some
time to shower and get ready. Celeste, make sure you eat all of it,” she said. I looked at the plate. There was lots of fruit and some peanut
butter while Markus’ plate was full of sausage, bacon and eggs.
