Alpha's Protection

I grabbed Ken’s wrist. “Please,” I panted. “Drugs.”
Ken grimaced. “Just give me a minute.” He began rooting around in his briefcase, but it wasn’t fast enough. I moaned in agony and grabbed Flint’s wrist. He was standing next to me, his face screwed up in concern.
“It hurts,” I moaned.
“I know,” Flint said, his brows furrowed. He let me grip his hands so hard I felt like I was crushing his bones, but he didn’t protest. “You’re doing great, Charlie. Keep going.”
“What do I do?” I cried, my voice rising in panic. “I’ve never done this before! I’ve never given birth naturally!”
“You’ll be okay, Charlie,” Flint reassured me in a deep, soothing growl. “Omegas have been giving birth naturally for generations. You can do it.”
“Give me your arm,” Ken said. I thrust it towards him and he injected something into my forearm. I groaned and shut my eyes, waiting for the painkillers to hit. “You’re doing fine, Charlie, just keep pushing.”
I nearly ripped Flint’s hands off by the time the pain started to fade.
“I see the baby,” Ken said from down below. “Keep going.”
I screamed with effort, pushing as hard as I could to get this damn baby out of me. I was half-numb from drugs and pain, sweating profusely and feeling disgusting and uncomfortable.
But then, a sound I’d never heard before filled the room. The sound of my new baby crying.
“He’s here,” Ken said with a smile. He quickly cleaned him and bundled him up before coming towards Flint and I, holding a tiny baby in his arms. Ken handed him to me. Instantly I felt tears running down my cheeks as I stared down at his tiny face.
“He’s beautiful,” I murmured.
Flint smiled, wide and proud. “I can’t believe it… he’s really here. Look at his little rosy cheeks.”
Indeed, our baby had full, chubby pink cheeks. He looked healthy and strong. I wanted to hug him, but I knew I had to be careful. He wasn’t crying anymore, but instead grunting and making gurgling noises.
“He’s gonna be a noisy one, just like Casey,” Flint said with a laugh.
“Definitely,” I agreed.
I brushed back our baby’s hair. “Speaking of Casey, call her in. We promised we would name him together.”
Ken went to retrieve Casey, and the rest of the alphas couldn’t help but peek inside. Flint rolled his eyes and invited everybody inside. They started coo-ing at the baby. It was almost funny to see all these grown men turning into mush at the sight of a baby.
Casey ran up to my side, but exhibited an unusual gentleness as she gazed in awe at her little brother. “He’s so cute!”
“He is,” I agreed. “What should we name him?”
Flint tilted his head curiously as he gazed down. “What about… James?” he offered.
I looked at my beautiful child, mulling over the name in my mind. “I like that,” I said softly. “He looks like a James.”
“James! James!” Casey cried. “My little brother James!”
Flint and I grinned at each other.
“James it is, then,” Flint said.
He turned to me and kissed me. Love bloomed in my chest. I was here with my whole family, and my brand new life.
Nothing would ever interfere with our happiness again.
