December 20th

Ella's point of view:

The next morning at around 8 o clock the hospital finally discharged us. I was still sore down there so as I Leo held Cato securely in one arm he used the other to support me on our way from the ward to the entrance and exit door of the hospital.

"Ow," I whined with one step. "Ow," I added with the next. "No one ever told me that my vagina was going to hurt this much."

"You just pushed this out of it. What do you fucking expect?" Leo replied.

"No cursing in front of the baby!" I exclaimed.

He looked down at me and smiled.

"Can we just accept the fact that he's going to be that kid that teaches all the other kids the bad words and move on? It's inevitable."

"It is not inevitable. It is very easy to avoid in fact. Just don't fucking swear in front of him," I replied.

He looked at me with a raised eyebrow and I slammed my hand over my mouth. I'm as bad as him.

"Shit," I cursed before realising I had done it again.

We both then fell into fits of laughter as he hugged me tighter and kissed my head.

Outside there were crowds of wolves waiting to catch a glimpse of their future Alpha. It was overwhelming but Leo, who was well adjusted to public attention like this, lead me through them nodding and thanking people for their congratulations and compliments.

We finally made it home where we placed Cato down in his crib which we'd position by the large window on the east side of our room where the morning sunlight poured in. It fell onto his soft skin making it glisten perfectly as he slept.

"Christmas came early this year," I sighed running my fingertips along his tiny cheek.

Leo smiled and wrapped his arms around me as we both watched in utter amazement at the delicate little thing we'd created.

"Any word from your Mom?" he asked as he rested his head on my shoulder.

"She'll be here by lunch apparently. Your border guards will let her through, right?" I asked.

He nodded, "She has freedom to pass through any time she likes. As does your brother for now.copy right hot novel pub
