I fan my flushed face at the desire flooding the bond from Theo and Mason. I’m so pleased for them and so freaking proud because Theo has somehow convinced Mason to drop his shields completely. I feel his raw emotions for the first time and it is both soul–crushing and heartwarming. The kitchen is silent whilst we all process what is happening.
“This is what he needed. Now he can begin to heal,” Deacon breaks the silence, his voice thick with emotion.
“Do you think he knows we can all feel this?” Luke asks.
“He has to, he understands the empath gift more than any of us. He’s not just letting Theo in, he’s letting us all in,” D nods and my emotions leak from my eyes.
I want to go to him, to hug him and tell him that I love him. That I’m so proud of him, but even if it was possible I know he’d probably hate that. I also wouldn’t interrupt such an intimate and emotional mornent between him and Theo.
Axel leaves the room to go and change into the new clothes had brought back from him and Deacon busies himself making me more tea and setting out the vitamins he insists I need. Luke wraps his arms around me from behind, letting me lean against him whilst he tenderly places a hand over my abdomen.
“What’s the plan for today?” Luke asks.
“We need to discuss what you and Axel did and why. Mason and Theo deserve an explaination at the very least. Then Josie needs to rest. It’s been an emotional 24 hours for her. Tomorrow she has an appointment with the doctor to check on hers and the little bean’s well–being,” Deacon explains.
“Little Bean is adorable,” Luke laughs. “But that’s not seriously going to be his name is it?”
“He? How do you know it’s not a she?” I tease.
“Statically it’s more probable to be a boy…” he starts.
“I know, I’m messing with you,” I laugh. “But statistics rarely apply to me so it could be a girl,” I added with a shrug.
“True, statistically you don’t tend to fit most statistics,” he hums in thought.
“Now you are hurting my brain,” I sigh dramatically.
“Sorry, Sweetness, come on, let’s get you comfortable on the couch. Today is a Josle pamper day,” he declares, scooping me off of my feet and carrying me to the living room. He gets me set up on the sofa with a cosy blanket, some terrible tea and the TV remote. Deacon brings the pamper box that Freya had brought me and hands it to Luke, who studies each item before deciding on a face mask first.
“I have a few phone calls to make and then I’ll be back,” Deacon leans down to kiss me before leaving the n
room.
Axel joins us as I lay back with a pink sheet mask on my face and Luke knelt on the floor massaging my feet with a lotion from the pamper box.
“Pick something out of the box and use it where it says,” Luke motions to the box and Axel picks up a small box. He studies it a moment before his eyes go wide and he quickly drops it back in the box, picking up another product.
“What was that?” I ask, curious about his reaction.

“Not needed yet,” he says clearing his throat whilst he studies a large white bottle.
I lean over and pick up the small box, “reduces the likelihood of tears during childbirth,” I read and reality suddenly dawns on me, because whilst I’ve accepted that I’m going to have a baby Thadn’t actually considered. how I would be bringing it into the world. I mean I know how babies are born, of course I do. I’ve done biology in school and I’ve seen plenty of TV births, but I hadn’t stoppel to think I’d actually have to do that, and no TV shows I’ve watched ever mention tearing!
