I woke up to Ollie howling. When I checked beside me, he wasn't in bed, and I realized it was coming from the bathroom. I ran in there as fast as I could and found Ollie sitting on the floor, clutching his belly.

"I think my water just broke," he said.

"You think?" I said, looking at the puddle he was sitting in. "We have to bring you to Dr. Michael right now."

I helped him up off the ground, and my heart was racing from excitement. I was about to have my second child.

I grabbed the hospital bag I'd prepared and helped Ollie to the car. I called Dr. Michael as I drove off my driveway.

"I hope he's not sleeping," Ollie said.

"If he is, we're going to break into his house to wake him up," I said.

Dr. Michael finally picked up, and he agreed to come to the hospital. I drove to the hospital which was only five minutes away.

Ollie had conceded on going to give birth in the city. Initially, he’d wanted to have a natural birth in the city limits, but I’d told him it was far too dangerous and it wasn't a good idea to risk the life of our baby.

We arrived at the hospital, and I carried Ollie inside. Seeing my Omega in so much pain made my heart wrench. In the past few months, his belly had grown considerably, and I had a feeling we were going to have an Alpha from how big his belly was. An Omega giving birth to an Alpha baby was dangerous and often fatal. I only trusted Dr. Michael to deliver our baby safely.

We waited in the hospital room, and the Beta nurse helped Ollie put on a hospital gown.

Dr. Michael rushed into the room half an hour after we’d arrived.

"What took you so long?" I asked Dr. Michael.

"What do you mean? I got here as fast as I could," the doctor said.

Ollie started screaming in pain, and his forehead was dripping with sweat.

"Now's not the time to be arguing with each other," Ollie said.

I grabbed Ollie’s hand, and he squeezed it so hard that my fingers turned white.

The doctor lifted Ollie's hospital gown. "You're already dilating," he said.

I couldn't help but look at Ollie's hole, which was stretched open.

I kissed Ollie on the forehead. "It'll be over soon, baby."

Dr. Michael gave Ollie his epidural, and a Beta nurse came in to help with the delivery.

"I want to be the one who pulls out the baby," I said.

Dr. Michael put a hand on my shoulder. "Don't worry. I'll let you do it."

The doctor instructed Ollie to push, and he did. He was in so much pain, and I wished that I could take some of the pain for him.

Seeing Ollie's dilated hole made me hard. It wasn't the time to be turned on, but I couldn't help myself.

Ollie continued to push, and I watched the baby's head come out.

"All right, you can pull him out now," Dr. Michael said.

I wrapped my hands around the baby's shoulder and pulled him out of Ollie.

"It's an Alpha," I said, holding the baby up so Ollie could see it.

Ollie smiled tightly, looking at the crying baby in my hands. But he still looked like he was in so much pain.

"I think you're having twins," Dr. Michael said.

When I looked down, Ollie's ass was still dilated, and I saw the head of a second baby.

"Twins? We weren't expecting to have twins," I said.

"Well, it's your lucky day then," the doctor said. "Ollie, I'm going to need you to push again."

The Beta nurse took the first baby from my hands. I held Ollie's hand as he tried to push the second baby out.

"Just breathe, Ollie," I said. "You're almost there."

Ollie was much weaker now, and the baby was coming out a lot slower. Ollie's scream and cries echoed in the hospital room.

"I can't push anymore," Ollie said as tears rolled down his cheeks.

I wiped them off his face and pushed his blond hair back from his eyes. "You can do it. You're the strongest Omega I know."

Ollie tried again, and the baby's head slowly emerged out of his hole.

"All right, pull him out," Dr. Michael said.

I quickly grabbed the baby and gently guided it out of Ollie's ass.

"You did it," I said. "This one's an Omega."

Ollie looked at the baby in my arms and smiled, and I brought the baby over so that Ollie could hold him too. The nurse came back with the Alpha baby, and I held him.

We looked at the two beautiful children we'd created together: two Golden wolves, one Alpha, one Omega.

"This is what I've always wanted. A family." Ollie said. His voice was raspy and weak. "I finally feel like I belong in a pack."

I smiled and couldn't believe we had twins. Dr. Michael checked the monitor to see Ollie's heart rate going down.

"Is he going to be all right?" I asked, taking the Omega baby from Ollie and holding both babies in my arms.

"He will be all right," Dr. Michael said. "He needs a lot of rest right now. An Omega isn't meant to give birth to two babies at once, especially since one of them was an Alpha.

I looked over to see Ollie had passed out, and I prayed he was going to be okay. I looked down at my two sons and realized how fortunate I was.

They shared our blond hair, and though they hadn't opened their eyes yet, I knew the color of them would be bright yellow, just like mine and Ollie’s.

* * *

Ollie woke up the next day feeling better. My neck was sore from sleeping on the chair next to him all night, holding his hand and making sure he was okay. Dr. Michael instructed Ollie to take it very easy for the next few weeks.

We left the hospital with our two babies.

"Does that mean we can't take our kids to the city limits?" Ollie asked as we were driving home in the car.

"Absolutely not," I said. "I'm not going to risk losing you or my two babies."

"Our babies," Ollie corrected.

I reached over and squeezed his leg. "I'll let you take them out in the wild eventually. But you're going to have to listen to the doctor’s orders."

"But I really want Tyler and Winston to meet them," Ollie said.

"And they will. But you need to rest, love. Tyler and Winston can wait, and they'll understand. They had a baby not too long ago."

I checked the rearview mirror to see both babies sleeping peacefully.

"We’re going to need another crib," I said. "Maybe another changing table too."

"I couldn't believe this whole time I was carrying two babies, not one," Ollie said. "I didn't even realize it when I felt kicking in two spots."

"You're lucky you got through such a high-risk pregnancy. Giving birth to one baby is tough enough. I know because I was there when Tyler was born."

Ollie smiled. "Tyler's technically their older brother."

"Which makes you his stepdad if we ever get married," I said with a grin.

"That's funny to think about because Tyler and I are around the same age. But you're right--" Ollie paused. "Wait...are you suggesting something?"

"Suggesting what?" I said.

"That you're going to propose to me?" Ollie said.

I looked over to see Ollie's eyes light up. "What? You think I have a ring in my back pocket?"

"Don't tease me like that," Ollie said. "You know how easy it is to get me worked up."

"I'm not about to propose to you just yet," I said. "Trust me, it'll happen when you least expect it."

It was fun to keep Ollie guessing. I knew I'd marry him someday, but it had to be the right moment.

We arrived back at my house, and I noticed a package left on the ground next to the front gate. I didn't think much of it and got out of the car to toss it into the car.

Ollie took the babies out of the back seat.

"We have to pick out two names now instead of one," I said.

"You're right, but I already had two names in mind, since we didn't know if it was going to be an Alpha or Omega."

"What are they?" I asked.

"Joel for the Alpha, and Aiden for the Omega," Ollie said.

I looked at my babies. The Alpha did seem like a Joel, and the Omega seemed like an Aiden.

"That sounds good to me," I said.

Ollie raised his brow. "Wait. You’re just going to accept those names? I thought we were going to get in a big fight over it."

"After seeing you give birth to them, I’ll let you decide their names," I said.

Ollie leaned in and kissed my lips. He was the reason for the joy in my life recently, and I was willing to do anything for Ollie to make him happy as well.

We brought our babies up into the nursery, and we put them both in the same crib.

"This is going to have to do for now," I said.

"They're going to learn to get along and be each other's best friends," Ollie said.

I whispered the names Ollie had given to them. "Aiden and Joel. Joel and Aiden."

Then I wrapped my arms around Ollie, and we looked at our babies sleeping peacefully.

"How long do we have to wait before Dr. Michael said we can have sex again?" Ollie said, breaking the silence.

"Are you kidding? That's what you're thinking about right now?" I asked.

"Of course, I've been thinking about it ever since I watched your big strong arms pull out the two kids out of me," Ollie said.

"That turned you on?" I asked.

Ollie nodded.

"Well, the doctor said no strenuous activity for a few weeks, so I think we're both going to have to wait at least that long before we fuck," I said.

Ollie let out a yawn. "I'm pretty tired. I think I need a nap."

I kissed Ollie on the forehead. "You deserve it, babe."

Ollie went into the master bedroom to lie down. I remembered the package I'd left in the car, and I went outside to see what it was. I opened the box and saw a card in an envelope. When I took the card out, my heart starting racing. I read the note that was handwritten in red ink.

I looked around to see if we were being watched. How did Ollie's father know that we just had twins? When I looked in the box, I saw there were two creepy clown dolls inside. I threw them into the trash immediately.

I don't know who Troy thought he was. But I hoped he was smart enough to know not to mess with my children. I wasn't sure if it was a good idea to tell Ollie what his dad had sent to us. I knew Ollie needed rest, and I didn't want to wake him up.

I'd bred my rival's son, and I knew he was out for revenge. I had a feeling Troy wasn't going to let me walk away from this that easily.

I couldn't let Troy threaten my family like that. No one was going to leave suspicious packages in front of my house with creepy clown dolls. I knew where he lived and decided to pay him a visit.

I walked over to his house, which had a gate that surrounded the property just like mine. The gate was tall, but I was able to shift into wolf form and jump over it easily. After shifting back into my human form, I walked up the driveway and knocked on the front door.

I didn't know what I was going to do when I saw him.

I heard footsteps approach, and then Troy opened the door. He didn't have a shirt on, and he looked sweaty like he'd just been working out.

He took his headphones off and put them around his neck.

"Hey, old friend. How have you been?" Troy said with a smirk.

I wanted to knock him out, but I decided to take the high road.

I pulled out the letter that had come with the package from my back pocket. "I came here to give this back to you. I don't want any of your gifts."

Troy smirked. "Aww, did the twins not like the toys?"

I furrowed my brows. "How do you even know that Ollie had twins? Have you been watching us?"

"I own this city. I see everything around here," Troy said. "Why don't you come in so I can offer you a drink?"

"You don't own this city, and I'll stay right here, thank you," I said.

"Well, why did you come to my house in the first place if you're not even going to come inside?" Troy said.

"I know you're trying to fuck with me. Let me tell you one thing. If you fuck with my family, you're not going to know what hit you until it's too late."

Troy crossed his arms and didn't look worried at all. "Is that a threat?"

"It's a threat, and you better take it seriously," I said.

"Well, that's funny because last time I checked, Ollie was my son. So don't tell me not to fuck with your family when Ollie belongs to me."

"Ollie doesn't belong to you," I said. "He's not your property."

"Well, he's not yours either," Troy said.

"I know that. I'm the one who actually cares and respects him. I'm not some deadbeat father who makes his son feel bad about himself."

Troy laughed. "The last time I checked, your son ran away from you too."

"And we're on good terms now. Don't think you know everything about me. I don't know who you hired to spy on my family. But I'm not fucking scared to destroy you if you try anything," I said.

"That's cute," Troy said. "So, when do I get to meet my grandchildren?"

"Never. I'll never let you get close to them, and neither will Ollie," I said.

I turned around and walked away. There was no point in talking to him any further. I knew that if I wanted my family to be safe, I needed to be the one to protect them.

I didn't know what Troy had up his sleeve, but I knew what he was capable of. He was, after all, a billionaire, just like me.

I walked home, clenching my fists. I regretted not punching that motherfucker in the face. All I wanted was to go back to Ollie and my two kids.

When I was nearing my house, I noticed dark clouds of smoke billowing above the mansion. I ran toward it. The front gates were open. There were fire trucks outside my mansion. My heart started racing, and all I could think about was Ollie and our kids.

It took me a second to realize what was happening in front of me.

My house was on fire.

I rushed to the front door, but two Alpha firefighters blocked me from entering my home.

"You can't go in there," one of the firefighters said.

"My Omega and my children are inside," I screamed.

"We'll try to rescue them," the firefighter said. "You'll die if you go in there."

I saw one of my Betas standing there with a blanket wrapped around him. His face was darkened by smoke.

"Where're Ollie and my children?" I asked. "What happened in there?"

"I don't know," the Beta said. "One second, everything was fine, and the next, the whole house was up in flames. The firefighters think it was started intentionally."

I knew it was Troy, who’d set the fire. I couldn't believe he would do something like that knowing Ollie was in there. I knew he was evil, but I didn't think he would do something so extreme.

I heard a familiar voice call my name.

I turned around and saw Ollie standing in front of me, holding our two children in his arms. He burst into tears as I ran toward him, wrapping my arms around the three of them.

"You're safe," I whispered. "What happened in there?"

"I woke up, and the house was on fire. I had no idea what was going on," Ollie said.

"I think I know what happened," I said. "Your father did this."

Ollie looked at me with his golden eyes. "How do you know?"

"I was just at his house to talk to him. He left a cryptic note at the front gate earlier. Then I was walking back and saw the house on fire. Is there still anyone inside?"

Ollie shook his head. "I think everyone got out safely."

I looked at my mansion that was quickly getting consumed by the flames.

"We have to leave," I said. "We're not safe in the city anymore."

I looked at my two children. I was the Alpha. I needed to protect them.

"Where are we going to go?" Ollie asked.

"I can't believe I'm saying this, but we're going to be safer in the city limits," I said.

"Where Tyler and Winston are?" Ollie asked.

I nodded. "We'll be safer if we join their pack. Winston is, after all, a bodyguard."

It was going to be difficult, leaving my life in the city behind. But as I watched my mansion burn down, I was left with nothing except my family. My house was replaceable, but my family wasn’t. All I had was my pack, and I realized nothing else mattered.
