The Black Alder Series (Books 1-3)

Kayla Pov

My pregnancy has gone by quickly but easily. I wasn’t as sick as some people thought I would be. Thank God for that.

I’m lying down in bed with the twins as I start to feel strange. I feel wetness and a gush between my legs, but I can’t see over this huge stomach of mine. I think I just peed on the bed. Ugh.

I ask the twins to come to help me clean up when I feel a sharp pain shoot in my stomach.

MOTHERFUCKER.

I managed to get on my hands and knees, trying to breathe deeply. I realize I’m having a contraction.

Shit, my baby is coming.

I told Lauren that the baby was coming, and she said she was on her way. A few minutes later, the boys come rushing through the door along with Lauren, Elena, and Bonnie.

I screamed as I had another contraction. I feel like my insides are burning themselves out. Lauren and the twins help me out of bed, and Ethan picks me up, taking me off to the hospital. Thank God they are fast, and we got there before another contraction hit me.

Lauren hooked me up to some machines as she and Alverez got to work, getting me comfortable until it was time. I was so happy to have my brother with me at a time like this. The twins stood on both sides of me, holding my hands and smiling hard.

“I’m so happy it’s time,” I tell them.

“It seems like it’s been forever,” Ethan says.

“Absolutely,” Aiden says.

3 hours later

“Why is this taking so long?” I’m yelling at Lauren, who is surprisingly patient. I know I’ll have to apologize to her later.

“Your baby will come when they are ready-not early, not sooner,” Lauren said. I was trying to toughen out the pain and not get an epidural. I wanted to experience the full birth, the pains, all of it. I was impatient. Ready to meet my bundle. I was more impatient because we decided not to see what the gender was. The boys wanted a boy, but I wanted a girl.

30 minutes later

“Push Kayla,” Lauren commanded, and I screamed from the pain as I pushed. I was regretting not getting the fucking epidural because, man, it was hurting terribly.

Aggghhhhhh, I screamed as my baby came forward. I felt a sense of relief.

“It’s a boy,” Lauren says as the twins rush down to see him. Alverez is cleaning him off, and they hang him to me. He looks exactly like Aiden. He has our jet-black hair, but he has Aiden’s blue eyes. It’s like his little replica. I kissed his forehead.

Aiden Pov

I feel like the luckiest man in the world. Our wife pushed out our baby, who happened to be a boy. I have a son. A freaking son. Lauren handed him to my brother, who smothered him in kisses, and then to me, and he looks just like me. I do the same.

“No fair, he took after you,” Ethan pouted, and I laughed.

“He is perfect. OH, MY GODDDDDD!” Kayla screamed.

Alverez takes our baby, and I rush to her side. Lauren is between her legs with something on Kayla’s stomach.

“We have another baby coming, Kayla; I need you to get ready to push,” Lauren commands.

Oh, sh*t twins

Ethan looks at me and grins. I know he feels how I’m feeling. We grab our friends and

“YOU BOTH DID THIS TO ME; I AM NEVER SLEEPING WITH YOU EVER AGAIN,” Kayla yells at us, squeezing our hands harder as she pushes again. I rubbed her hand, trying to help calm her. She gives one more push, and another baby comes out.

“It’s a boy,” Lauren says as Alverez takes him and cleans him. They gave the baby to me. He has a full head of jet-black hair, just like his brother, and his eyes are golden. The replica of my brother. Nice.

Ethan Pov

Aiden hands me our second son. This little boy is a dead ringer for both of us when it comes to looks, but he has my eyes. YES! I am covering our little boy with kisses.

“I would like to see him considering I did most of the work,” Kayla complained, and I grinned, giving him to her.

“No, fair; neither one of them looks like me,” she pouts. I can tell she adores him already, as she is making cooing noises to him and kissing him. Aiden and I high-fived each other. The pride we are feeling now that we have not only our baby but also our twin boys is a feeling I never want to let go of.

LAURENNNNNNN Kayla screams suddenly, and she hands me our son back. Alverez takes him from me as I rush to her side. Lauren puts a metal thing on Kayla’s stomach.

“We have one more,” she says, and my brother and I look at each other, shocked.

Triplets.

We were having triplets!

Kayla Pov

I am going to rip Ethan and Aiden’s heads off their bodies. I swear, I’m going to tear their hearts apart as soon as this is over.

When is this over?

These are the thoughts running through my head as I give birth to my third child. I was hoping it would be a girl this time. Both my sons look like their daddy. I need a win.

“Push!” Lauren commands. I take a huge breath as I push, and my last baby comes out.

“Any more kids?” I sigh, and the twin’s chuckle. Lauren shakes her head.

“It’s a boy,” I said, and I lay back on the bed. Three sons. We have three sons. They clean up our third son and give him to Aiden. I hear Aiden gasp as he stares at our child. He then hands him to Ethan, who makes the same sound.

“What’s wrong with our son?” I said, my voice trembling. Ethan smiles and hands him to me.

Oh My

He looks like his brothers with his mop of jet-black hair and his eyes. His eyes are what held me as I cried. One of his eyes is jeweled blue. The other is hazel. He is a vision to see.

The boys come back beside me, both holding their younger versions of themselves. Lauren and Alverez both kiss my head.

Elena, Nate, Serene, Cole, Mia, Roland, Elle, and Bonnie all come in and congratulate us on passing the babies between each other. They each had the same reaction to our third son as we did.

“What are their names?” Elena asked. I have pondered it since the twins, and I had only discussed just one name.

“Ares for our blue-eyed, Adonis for our hazel-eyed, and Ash for our son with both colored eyes,” I tell them.

Ares, Adonis, and Ash Black. The twins come and kiss me on the head as they marvel at me. My family. My perfect little family. My mi amors.

Kayla Pov (7 years later) “Mummy, Ash won’t stop pulling my hair.”

I removed Ash’s hand from Camilla’s hair. Camilla was born two years after her triplet brothers. I wished for a mini-me version so badly, and, thankfully, someone granted it because I pushed out a baby girl with full jet-black hair and pouty lips like mine with green eyes just like mine. She is so adorable and sweet. She is our princess, and, even at two years old, she values others before herself, making sure the pack members are okay after training. My boys, on the other hand, are a different story.

Adonis and Ash are my two troublemakers. They love pulling pranks on their dads and acting like they have no sense sometimes. Ares, my firstborn, is more reserved. He does sometimes join in his brother’s pranks, but now he does it less and less. He is more reserved and always looks like he is deep in thought. Not to mention stubborn, but I love my precious baby boy. I’m sure he will grow out of it, and if he doesn’t, then at least Adonis and Ash will have someone keeping them in check. He spends a lot of time with Camilla and his cousin Shane, which I’m happy about.

“Ash, go tell everyone dinner is ready,” I told him.

“Okay,” he squeaks.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

My boys all shifted two years ago. Thankfully, they had their dad’s Lycans to help them through it.

The triplets around the corner rushed to the table, arguing over Legos.

“Mom, can we go play with Cousin Shane later?” Ares asks. Shane was born one year after the triplets by Lauren and Alverez.

“Of course,” I told him. He is trying to be more playful. I would never take that chance away.

Ethan and Aiden finally came from their office just as I finished fixing the kids’s plates and planted a kiss on both of my cheeks.

“Get a room,” Ash states, and I roll my eyes, while Ares and Adonis just giggle, and Camilla is just oblivious.

“How about I send you to yours?” I threatened playfully, and his eyes went wide, apologizing.

Watching my family eat, I begin to think of how everything has changed these last few years. My abuse, my powers, my twins, now my husbands, and our beautiful kids. As if reading my thoughts, Aiden and Ethan both looked at me. I still blush like the day I had when I first met them. I project incredibly playful, lusty images to them in our shared mindlink, and they look at each other before glancing at me lustfully. Yep, we’re calling their grandparents to come and get their grandkids.
