It didn't take long for the children Luke mentioned to show up.

Four small children, maybe three years old, together with a woman.

I stood uncertainly in the frame of the office door and observed the situation.

The children were quite excited and ran around the room.

The woman and Luke were talking and didn't seem to mind.

To my horror, I could see from the context that she was indeed the mother of all four children.

She had all serious four children in one fell swoop.

Just the thought of what the birth was like made an uncomfortable shiver run down my spine.

"Who are you?" I suddenly heard a child's voice in front of me.

Surprised, I looked down.

One of the children was standing in front of me. From the voice a girl, even if you couldn't tell which gender they were with any of the children had.

The child looked at me with big eyes.

The other three also noticed me. "I've never seen you before. "

, said another and the other two echoed: "Me neither."

Attention from the mother and Luke were with me from then on.

To be honest, I was a bit overwhelmed by it.

"You know, that's mine and Beta Jared's mate," Luke said then.

The realization shone in the eyes of the children at that moment.

"Your companion!"

"How long has she been here?"

"Can't she talk like Luna used to?" "

Why is she here?"

the children shouted in confusion.

The mother smiled and Luke only grinned.

But he actually began to patiently answer all the children's questions in a child-friendly way.

All other questions were answered one after the other until the kids were satisfied.

The mother just sat there with a smile and seemed pretty happy that she didn't have to answer all her children's questions this time.

The little ones kept looking at me with interest, but they didn't speak to me directly anymore.

After almost 15 minutes, Luke was actually able to start examining the children.

In fact, it seemed to be just a pure check to see whether the children were all developing normally.

Here, too, the children asked many questions and did not seem to be afraid of Luke.

It seemed surprisingly familiar to me. Which could also be due to the fact that Luke really knew the children from birth.

He also knew everyone's name and seemed to know quite clearly which of the four children was the eldest or the youngest. Even if it was only minutes that separated the children.

After the examination was over, the children got something sweet and Luke talked to the mother.

In any case, the children all sat next to each other on a lounger and happily ate the sweets.

When the children, including their mother, left, it was already 2 hours later.

Everything went smoothly for the children and Luke impressed me a little with his endless patience towards the children.

"So that would have been the official main attraction for today," he said and clapped his hands.

I would then clean something up and then we'll see what else comes in today."

Systematically, Luke began to eliminate the little chaos that had arisen so far.

After only a few minutes, the room looked exactly the same as it had before the children had visited.

"Here.", Luke said to me and gave me one of the candies that the children had nibbled on before. "Try it.

The children love the stuff, even if they aren't allowed to eat a lot of it because of the sugar ."

A knock interrupted the situation.

Luke turned to the door and I placed this candy on the nearest table.

The door opened and Lily walked in.

Both Luke and I looked at her in surprise.

"Oh Lily, what can we do for you." "

Oh, I just wanted to come by and see how you're doing today. Finally, I heard that you have your partner with you.", she said and winked at me.

Luke, however, only looked in skeptically.

"What is it, Luke?", She wanted to know from him.

"I don't believe you."

"Why shouldn't you believe me?" She asked him with interest.

"You would never, as the superb Luna that you are, simply take up my abilities while I work. The pack and its well-being is far too important for that."

She looked at him skeptically and raised her eyebrows.

Lily locked eyes with Luke for a few seconds until she sighed and thus officially gave up.

"Well, somehow you're right. But it wouldn't be urgent. So if you have something else to do, I'll come back another time."

"No no, all good. I have time.", he said and pointed to the couch, on which Lily sat down. "

So, what can I do for you? Do you still have problems with your voice or is it something else?", he wanted knowledgeable about her.

"With my voice everything is fine so far. Keeps getting better.

Actually why I'm here is...

I- I think I'm pregnant."

For a few seconds there was absolute silence in the room.

"Okay.", Luke said calmly, faster than I could even realize her statement. "

Do you just believe that or do you think you know it. Werewolves are actually pretty sensitive about that."

"I just don't know exactly. But somehow I just feel different lately. I can't describe it in any more detail, but pregnancy was my first idea." "

Okay then I would probably want to take a look. I know that you and the alpha are regularly intimate." Luke said and Lily actually became something red.

"Oh man, I'm still not used to your directness." She murmured, probably more to herself.

"Oh, you get used to that in the long run. Also, I'm a doctor. You shouldn't be embarrassed in front of me. Believe me, I've seen and heard pretty much everything." "

Yes... you're probably right.", she said and lay down completely on the couch on which she was only sitting before.

Luke grabbed a chair on casters and a strange large device that was also on casters.

"I would do an ultrasound. Since everything happens faster with female werewolves, I would probably want to try an ultrasound through the abdominal wall. Then we should see what we should see.

"Okay," Lily said, sounding a little nervous.

I took a few steps closer, interested in what was going to happen next.

I really couldn't imagine how one should be able to determine a pregnancy with such a device.

She pulled her top up to expose her stomach and Luke squirted a gel onto her stomach with a brief advance notice, "Caution cold.

" on her stomach.

A strange picture appeared on the device.

A tense silence reigned in the room while Luke worked with concentration on

the device. "And Luke? Please don't tease me like that."

"Calm down. I'll tell you.

You were correct in your assumption, you are pregnant."
