Fates Hands novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58

Duncan wanted to go in with Adira but the nurses all said no. He was out in the hall with Marco, August and Archer, along with half the pack out in the main waiting area keeping vigil.

Marnie came running in dressed in miss matched clothes and Ashton wasn’t far behind, he looked like he was still in the process of getting dressed.

Duncan inspite of his worry, laughed to himself. It was plain for all to see, what those two were doing or were about to do. From the look on Ashtons face, it didn’t go as far as he wanted it to.

They wouldn’t let him in yet, not until the doctor had a look first.

Duncan was a bit miffed, he has to look first? What does the Doc think, he was going to see something that he hadn‘t already seen first?

Marco seeing how his friend was coming unglued, decided to track down a nurse and see if they would let The Alpha in with his Luna.

Before too long a nurse came and took Duncan to Adira. No one else was allowed, that saddend Marnie but she understood. So now they wait for a new life to come into their world.

The pack started to fill in the outer waiting room area, it was like some sort of party. They were just as excited to have a new pup as the parents were.

The King was sent word that Adira was going into labor. He smiled and

couldn’t seem to stop. His god son would soon be here. He looked over at Lily, wondering what their pup’s will be like.

He decided to wait to make the trip to Duncans pack for now, until Adira has safely delivered their pup and everyone is settling down again. Lily and Adira really needed to have a talk face to face. He didn’t think that it would go bad, it is just they needed to put it behind them for good. 2

He also decided to make a strict law, anyone found abusing, sexually, physically or mentally anyone. Especially children, will have a trial, if found guilty, they will be put to death.

Because really are they not murderers themselves, they are killing whoever that person was or who they would of been. Also sometimes the abused become abusers themselves as well.

thus going on to murder other could of beens.

Giving the victim a lifetime of pain and mental issues that effect the life they now have to live.

He didn’t think it was too harsh at all. Further more he made it the responsibility of the pack to make sure the victims get all the help they need for as long as they need it.

Knowing Lily had opened his eyes to a world he wished didn’t exist, a world he will now live to eradicate. No more. This far, no further.

He couldn’t imagine abusing his own children, sadly though the parents are more often than not to blame for the abuse and neglect.

Lily noticed that pensive look on his face, putting a hand on his shoulder saying…..

“My love do not stare at the tree of bitterness too long, it could make you fall into despair.”

He smiled at her….

“My love I could never fall into despair with you at my side, it is like a brilliant sun shining down on me from the heavens themselves. No shadows can touch me now or ever again.” (D

They went outside into the sparkling snow, where the King kissed his Queen, without a care in the world if someone were to see them.

August started to grumble, “How long does it take to have a pup?” Marnie looked at him, she wasn’t happy with him right now.

“For your information idiot, a pup

“For your information idiot, a pup comes when it comes, the first one is always a little messed up. I have seen some females go into labor for 26 hours. A few that I know, were only in labor an hour.”

Doesn’t matter which way, I can’t say from experience yet, just so you know it’s exhausting painful work. Try to show some respect, if you don’t know what you’re talking about then keep your mouth shut.”

Ash looked back at August, instead of being mad about getting the smack down, he started to laugh.

“She is perfect for you Ash, she is going to be a big surprise to the parents too.”

Nine hours later a very stressed out Duncan came out of the room to let everyone know that, little Alexander

Marco MacPatton, eight pounds, three ounces and sixteen inches long. Had been born into the world. TO

The newest member of their pack, he has a head of dark hair and a really good set of lungs. Adira is exhausted but doing well. If all goes well she will be home in the morning.

Duncan went over to Marnie after Ash put her down, hugged her and mind linked that he needed her to do him and Adira a favor. She gave a smile and ran out of the hospital, taking a very confused Ash with her.

Marnie jumped into Ashton’s arms as he twirled her around happily, everyone was actually smiling it was a wonderful moment in time.

Marco went on down the hall to

inform the rest of the pack of their new pup. Soon he will have his welcome to the pack ceremony.

Marco was so touched that they used his name for the pup’s middle name.

After he informed the pack, he went outside and texted Jack to let him know that the pup was born and all was well.

Marco looked around him, it was a full moon and light hit the snow making it look like diamonds. The air was crisp and clear, perfect night for our little pup to come join us, he thought. With a wide smile he went back in to be with Duncan.

Jack Dawson wasn’t much for social activities. He gave a small thankful smile though to God above for letting nothing happen to Duncan’s sweet Luna. They deserved all the happiness that life could give.

His clan was still sorting the victims,

most were either brought back to their families or they found them new families in either the packs or in Jacks clan.

There were just a couple of kids left, Jack decided that they would have them stay with his own clan members. They were three boys, brothers at that. He decided since they were 9,11 and 12 that they would be good foster children to live in the clan house and learn from the males about being men.

He had plenty of money, so did a lot of their clan. If those in the clan that didn’t have as much money for what they needed, then another clan member helps them out. It is just the way this clan worked. The first of it’s kind.

He gave out a sigh, looking out over the snow covered ground, wondering

if some day he will find a mate of his own, something like what the wolves have. A soul mate. It happens in the WereBear world but its becoming a rare thing anymore.

Most of the time in his world, if it was a bear female aka ‘sow’. She would go into her heat and it would be the best male would win the prize. He would be with her for a while and then be gone. Sometimes love would follow but it was rare.

He listened to the quiet of the night, with a sigh he went on to bed. Perhaps he should just give up on that particular dream. He was a werebear after all, not a werewolf.

He smiled when he remembered, what he got the little Alpha for his welcome to the pack gift. His very own motorcycle. Jack would have him over to his clan to learn to ride. As

soon as he was old enough.

It was actually a dirt bike, that would be his learning bike then for his sixteenth birthday, he was going to get him a real motorcycle. 2

Ten minutes later Marnie came back holding what looked like Frankenstein’s teddy bear. It was the ugliest teddy bear that Marco had ever seen. Marnie was carrying it like it was the most precious item in the world.

Duncan took the bear to Adira’s room, he placed Max beside his son in the hospital crib and then climbed into bed with his wonderful mate. He made a mental note to himself, he was going to ask the Mages to make their magical cabin again. He was going to get some alone time with his Mate and pup.(2)

Pulling Adira close to him spooning, she snuggled into him and they were both asleep. A nurse came in to check up on mother and son, she found that the whole family unit was sleeping.

She got an extra blanket and covered her Alpha, checked on the little pup.

Turning off the light as she left with a happy smile on her face.

Felicia was eating a really good meal for a change. Usually it was a plain bologna or peanut butter and jam sandwich, with a small glass of water. This was a great meal even if it was a bit cold. Steak and potatoes with a piece of white cake dyed blue.

She asked the guard why she got this meal, he was so happy that he forgot not to speak to her.

“The Luna has given birth to our first

Alpha pup, it is a celebration.”

He stopped himself before saying any more, gave her a angry look and left. He didn’t leave the light on, that light at the end of the hall was her only light, now she was eating in the dark. Good thing she had night vision or it would become unbearable.

So the Luna has had a pup, isn’t that special. One more thing for me to destroy when I get out of here. She enjoyed the cake and lay down on her blanket again to bide her time.
