Chapter 387

“What’s going on?” I groaned as my senses came back to me. Sparks were running up and down my arm, making me aware that Colt was with me. “Penny!” I heard a high pitch voice that surprised me. “Colt?” I called out. “Right here, love.” “What happened?” I asked again as I tried to open my eyes. There was this constant beeping that was starting to annoy the s hit out of me. “I’ll find the doctor!” The high pitch voice said. I wasn’t quick enough to look and see who it was. Instead, I was looking at Colt’s worried eyes. “You fainted. The doctor was running different test. I was worried they managed to sp i ke your drink or something. I’ve been so worried.” His eyes filled with water before his head rested against my hand. Reaching around, the I.V. tugged but I placed my hand on his head. “I’m so sorry I worried you. What did the doctor say? Is our baby okay?”

“I think so. He hasn’t told me anything yet.” Colt looked up and there was some anger in there. “I’m assuming they are doing blood testing. Let them do their jobs.” The door opened and Kris walked in. “The doctor will be right in. Are you okay?” It looked like she had been crying. “I’m good. I am so sorry that your party was ruined.” “Your life and the life of that baby is far more important than any party.” Kris came up to my bed and sat down. They apparently had both been camped out beside me. “What happened? At the party?” I asked looking between them.

“The girls were caught. Their men attacked but we were ready and. took them out quick enough. There was actually very little disturbance at the party. Most people didn’t even know something happened.” Kris said with a shrug. “I hear someone is awake.” The door opened and a taller but skinny man walked in. His hair was pretty grey but still had some black in there. Wrinkles lined his face with all the years of experience he had. “Is she okay?” Colt said as he stood up. “She is fine. No signs of sleeping poison or anything that shouldn’t be there. Your levels are actually very normal.” “Then why did she faint?” Colt pushed. “Pregnancy hormones can increase the heart rate and the blood supply in the body. Blood vessels relax and that can cause you to faint. Couple that with you being in shock from watching someone die, your body just fainted. Now, currently, I don’t see anything to worry about but fainting in pregnancy can be in result of something. more serious. Pay attention to any dizziness or excessive bleeding but I’m not going to list you as high risk just yet. Take it easy and don’t over do it.” “That is a relief.” I said to the room but no one in particular. “What about the baby?” Colt kept pushing. “Well, do you guys want to know everything I found out?” The doctor asked as he walked over to a monitor and turned it on. - “Yes.” Colt said in controlled anger. It was clear he wasn’t happy but the doctor ignored him. “Here is the sonogram we took when Luna Penny was brought in.” The doctor started. “Holy s hit!” Kris’s eyes were wide as she looked at the monitor. “What?” I looked between her and the screen. “Triplets.” The doctor said simply. “This is baby A, baby B and this little one is baby C. Three separate sacks with their own placentas.” As soon as the doctor stopped speaking, the room fell silent. I just stared at the monitor in disbelief. “What?” Colt asked after a moment.

“Triplets. You are decently along but due to you both being alphas and there being three in there, it’s hard to predict your due date. I would like you to come back in a week or two for an anatomy scan and to see how they grow. I have the genders from the blood draw if you want to know?” He looked between us. noveldrama
