Alex pov By her fourth month, it became clear that carrying twin blessed pups was taking an unprecedented toll on Beth. The babies' combined supernatural energy drained her strength faster than a normal pregnancy, leaving her exhausted and weak despite her own divine blessing. I found her asleep a
Alex pov I arranged my entire schedule around Beth's needs, helping Liam run the auto shops from our bedroom where I could keep constant watch over my mate. My desk had been moved beside our bed, allowing me to handle my duties while maintaining physical contact with Beth at all times. Liam and
Beth pov By my seventh month, I found even the simplest movements difficult. My belly had grown enormous with the twins, who seemed determined to take up as much space as possible. Their supernatural energy pulsed constantly, making me feel like I was carrying a small sun within me. I almost fall
Alex pov Despite Beth's enormous belly and constant fatigue, I had arranged a special evening for us. Our bedroom had been transformed with candles and flowers, and I had prepared all her favorite foods for a private dinner on our balcony. I know she is due soon, so I wanted to do something specia
Liam pov As mom's birth progressed, we decided the hospital would be better than a home birth. Da was scared she bleed out. So here we are crammed in a car, speeding to the packs hospital. "Mom, breathe," my voice was steady as I helped support mom's weight on one side while dad took the other.
Liam pov We were steps away from the hospital when mom's body decided it wouldn't wait any longer. She cried out she felt the head crowning, and I felt fear. "Stop the car," she gasped, her hand clutching mine with supernatural strength. "Now, Alex!" Dad slammed on the brakes and threw the vechi
Liam pov The joy of holding both twins against her chest had mom glowing with maternal love. She smiled up at dad, then at me and Luna, her family complete and perfect in this moment. "They're beautiful," she whispered, her voice tired but happy. Then, without warning, her eyes rolled back, an
Liam pov With mom finally stable but sleeping, dad reluctantly left her side to visit the twins in the nursery. I stayed behind, my protective instincts fully engaged as he maintained vigil over his mother. "I won't leave her," I promised my dad. "Not for a second." Dad squeezed my shoulder,
Sophia considered the question seriously before shaking her head. "Not worry. It's the right pattern. The balance is happy about it." She adjusted another stone slightly, the golden light flowing to illuminate the new configuration. "Five is better than four. Stronger shapes." As if confirming her
I began to protest, but another wave of dizziness—milder this time—reminded me that Elena's medical advice wasn't merely precautionary. My body was indeed adjusting to significant changes, and pushing beyond its limits would serve no one. "Two days," I conceded reluctantly. "But I want regular upd
Grace pov Liam nodded, leaning forward to place a gentle kiss on my forehead. "Our children were never going to be ordinary, were they? Not with us as parents." I smiled as he looked into my eyes. Lucas was a strong werewolf with Alpha blood, and Sophia was a truth seer. Both were strong as hell.
"What happened?" I asked, my voice slightly hoarse. "You collapsed in the observation gallery," Liam explained, squeezing my hand. "Gave everyone quite a scare, especially the children. Tomas has been asking about you every fifteen minutes." I attempted to sit up, but Elena moved swiftly to prev
Grace pov Two weeks after the Children's Day revelation, the Balance Center hummed with renewed purpose. I had implemented a carefully structured program to continue engaging with the children who had shown connection to the Equilibrium, while the research division refined their understanding of h
Grace pov Liam, ever practical, focused on immediate implications. "How does this affect our response to reality-shapers? Does this expanded connection give the equilibrium greater range or power?" "Not exactly, power," I replied thoughtfully. "More like... expanded awareness. Greater understand
As we discussed these implications, Sophia's block construction had grown increasingly complex. Children placed pieces with surprising precision under her guidance, creating what appeared to be a three-dimensional representation of reality patterns around the Balance Center itself. The golden light

Grace pov Three days after the shadow attack on the pack house, the Balance Center was hosting its first-ever Children's Day. What had begun as a small educational initiative had expanded rapidly as families associated with the Center brought not just their gifted children but siblings, cousins, a
