Luka's pov

"It's a boy"

My heart welled up in joy at the words the love of my life spoke happily. It's a boy.

He'd been born. And by the look on her face, he was okay too.

"That's great! " I exclaimed as everyone else in the hallway processed the information.

Caleb and Ashley's baby was finally in the world. And despite the long agonizing hours that Ashley have been in labour, it was all forgotten.

She had gone into labour earlier than she was intended to, and so she faced complications. She's been at the hospital for the past two days, and my wonderful Victoria has been with her every step of the way.

Victoria was currently explaining something to Lincoln, and I took the time to really admire her.

How could someone look so beautiful in a blood covered surgical gown and red lipstick? The world may never know, but that was my Angel.

"Is he healthy? " I asked, once I recovered from my love struck gaze.

"Bouncing and bubbly" She beamed.

"Just like his dad" Lincoln commented, which caused us all to laugh.

"You guys can go in when you're ready. I'm just gonna get cleaned up." She told us with that beautiful smile of hers. I watched as she disappeared into a room and I looked to Lincoln for confirmation.

"You think Caleb has recovered? " Lincoln asked with an amused look on his face.

Caleb has been a mess for the past two days, which was understandable. His mate and baby were in danger, I didn't blame him. But today when she started having contractions again, he went crazy and fainted a couple times. At first it was sad, but then it just became hilarious.

"Let's go find out" I suggested; but before we could enter, thudding footsteps down the hallway caught our attention.

"I'm here! I'm here! "

I looked down the hall to see Emma rushing towards us with an anxious looking Alex behind her. She stopped directly in front of us and rested her hands on her knees while she caught her breath.

"Where is... my... niece or nephew? "

"Well hello sister. I missed you too" I retorted sarcastically with a teasing smile. She chuckled at my remark and hugged me once she caught her breath.

"I missed you Luka. It's great to see you" I held her tight and gently kissed her head, then she proceeded to greet Lincoln.

Alex and I exchanged curt greetings while I also congratulated him on finding his mate. He seemed much happier than the night I saw him at Ty's Alpha Ceremony. Courtesy of my sister I'm sure.

"Emma! " I whipped my head around at the sound of Victoria's voice, and I saw that she was crushing Emma in a hug.

"I thought you would've come earlier" She mumbled.

"I came as fast as I could. I cant believe that she's a month early"

"She surprised us all. But it was worth it" Victoria clapped her hands excitedly and motioned to the door. "Ready to meet your nephew? "

"Of course! " Emma squealed, totally forgetting her mate who was left feeling awkward I'm sure.
