Author’s POV
Seven months went by in the blink of an eye, and Macy’s baby bump was now so big since the doctor confirmed she was having twins, Waterfall has lived peacefully in these past months and everything was going well.
Derick was not always in the pack house, he came and left regularly which was better than not coming at all, Liam focused on the pack business as usual. However, Macy was his number one priority because her pregnancy came with a lot of laziness as well as abnormal cravings.
Liam made sure to provide whatever she wanted, as long as it was on the planet Earth.
” Babe, Babe!” Macy called unto her husband, who was still asleep, It was only six in the morning, and Macy had been awoken by hunger, the twin was of no help at all, always hungry and making Macy famished too.
” Babe, please wake up!” She called out to him again, Liam groaned as he finally opened his eyes to see Macy facing him with pouted lips, She made a puppy face, “Baby we are starving,”
” And what are you three craving this time?” Liam asks in a sleepy voice.
” We want street food, ice cream, and then some spring rolls with chicken spicy soup,” Macy states excitedly, as she claps her hands in joy,
Liam rolled his eyes at her before getting out of bed, took a shower, and left the house, that early to go find his wife’s weird cravings. He just could not wait for her to deliver the babies.
Macy and Liam were so happy when they found out they were having twins, in fact, the entire Waterfall was elated at the news, Dad said he was proud of his son for shooting a double blessing.
After an hour of running around town, Liam finally got Macy everything she requested, He quietly watched her devour the food one after the other until nothing was left, “Are you satisfied now?”
Liam asked his plump Mate who could not breathe properly due to the amount of food she had consumed, “I feel fine, babe, thank you,”
” That is great, at least now I can go back to sleep,” Liam speaks out, Without letting her say another word, he hit the mattress and dozes off. Macy scoffed at his actions, before carefully going into the bathroom for a long hot shower.
Macy was super excited that morning, her craving was met, and her stomach was filled with food. Secondly, and the most thrilling reason was that her baby shower was today. The entire house was busy with the arrangements for the party, Nana also came around for the celebrations, so did Lori. It was a happy occasion and Macy invited the only family she had before Liam.
The color of the day was pink and blue, so everyone either wore pink or blue, invitations were sent to only friends and family.
” Macy, what are you doing down here? You are supposed to be resting.” Mom says to Macy, who was in the kitchen helping Nana prepare the deserts for later,
” I have begged her several times to go upstairs and rest, yet she refused and insisted on stressing herself,”
” You women need to stop worrying too much about me like I always say; I am fine,”
Both Nana and Mom rolled their eyes at her words, Macy simply smirked at them and continued making the cupcakes,
The party was scheduled to start at four pm, and it was already two, Mom and Grandma had to force Macy up to her room to go get some rest before the party began.
Macy got into the room and noticed Liam was not in bed, She heard the shower running and quickly took her clothes off, his back faced her as she walked toward him, Liam suddenly turned to her. He had a smile on his face as he glanced at her naked body with a big bump.
” Come here baby,” he says,
Macy obediently walks toward her husband, who wraps his hand around her waist as his palm feels the baby’s bump, he moves his face to her neck and places kisses there. Macy moans out loud at his actions, her pussy already getting wet with his touches.
” You naughty pregnant woman, tell me what you want baby,” Liam whispers into her ears,
” Touch me, please,” Liam chuckles at Macy’s words, he moves his hand to her pussy and caresses her there until she is a mess, during this time of her pregnancy Macy did not only crave food but sex too, Liam made sure to satisfy her every need, from filling her stomach to making her cum every single day.
After their fun in the bathroom, They both got dressed for the party. Macy wore a pink floral dress with long sleeves hands, and her raven hair was styled beautifully with ribbons, she looked like the actual princess. Whereas Liam had black pants on with a sky-blue shirt to pair with them, he left the two upper buttons of the shirt open, he was freaking hot.
” You Look pretty baby,” Liam compliments his mate who smiles from ear to ear at his words, her cheeks turn pink, and Liam smiles in return.
He held her hand in his as they walked out of their room and down the stairs to the party, “You ready to have fun tonight,” Liam speaks up,
” Yes, I am super ready to have fun,” Macy says grinning.
Meanwhile, at the back of the pack house, a group of people who infiltrated the pack and entered Waterfall gathered around in a corner, all dressed as part of the catering service,
” We all know the plan, this time we make no mistakes. We must end Liam Torres and his mate today,” the leader says to them, and they nod in response.
The party finally started, and the invitees filled the room, Pack members walked up to Macy and congratulated her some brought gifts for her, Lincoln and his mate also attended.
” Aren’t you the most beautiful woman under this roof, look at you,” Derick says as he approaches Macy, who has a wide smile on her face.
” Yes, I am, I am the most pretty girl in this building,”
Derick chuckled at her reply, he brought a gift for her and Macy accepted it excitedly, She was about to open it, but Derick stopped her. “You cannot open it until you deliver the babies,”
“Then why give it to me now?” Macy asks confused with a creased brow,
” Call it delayed gratification,” Derick responds, as he gives Macy a wink, She merely rolls her eyes at him. Liam approached them and pulled Macy up for a dance, They danced until Macy got tired,
The guests moved to the dance floor and everyone started dancing, Greg danced with Nana, making everyone laugh at them, The celebration was going well until Derick went upstairs to make a phone call,
Derick stood on the balcony of the mansion talking to his secretary Tracy, when he spotted a strange person on the rooftop of the next building close to the pack house which was ten miles away, Derick furrowed his brow at what he saw. To be sure, he glanced around with the eyes of his wolf to make his view clearer.
He gasped when he noticed a man with a sniper gun in his hand pointed into the pack house filled with people, immediately he ran downstairs like a maniac, everybody was dancing happily, without a clue of the danger at hand.
Derick panicked he looked around and caught the tiny red light on Macy’s chest, his heart skipped as he ran toward her, but not before the trigger was pulled. Bang!!
Loud noises of people running around could be heard, At that point four people covered in black started fighting with the guards, “Protect my mate!” Liam yelled through the link.
One of them brought out a gun, but before the trigger could be pulled, Liam attacked and slit the throat of the person, blood splatters around and the dead body drops to the ground. The mask used to cover the face was unveiled and Greg confirmed it to be Powell.
Meanwhile, at the other end of the room, Macy stared in shock As Derick dropped to the ground, blood pooled around him, Macy screamed and everyone turned their gazes to them,
Liam runs towards his mate in fear that she might have been hurt, but is shocked by what he sees. Macy held a dying Derick in her arms as she cried, asking for help. Mom comes over, her entire body shaking as she stares at her son dumbfounded.
” Somebody, please call the doctor, please,” Macy yells as tears stream down her eyes, It was a silver bullet shot.
” No, No, I won’t_make it__I Macy I want you to know that all my life__I never thought I could ever love like I did. Thank you for showing me what the true meaning of what love feels, You will always be my best friend because you own my heart forever….”
Those words left his lips as he blacked out, Macy screamed as she held his body in her arms, and immediately Liam leaned down to hold her in his arms.
Macy lets go of Derick and holds her stomach in pain, instantly she screams as pain rips through her, she has gone into early labor.
” Greg call the fucking doctor my wife is in labor!”
After two hours of operation, the doctor announced the arrival of the babies and the safety of the mother.
Macy woke up three hours later after she went into shock. Liam sat by her side waiting for her to wake up.
” Liam…” her voice called out in a whisper, She was waking up, and Liam, who was asleep, awakened the moment he heard her voice. “Baby you’re finally awake, oh dear you scared us all,”
” My babies??”
” They are fine, both of them are doing great, They are in their incubators, I’ll call the doctor, so we can go see them,”
” And Derick? Is he alright?”
” Come on let’s go see the babies first, we’ll talk about Derick later,”
It was a boy and a girl, “They are so pretty,” Macy commented as she watched her children in the incubator from outside.
A week had passed since the incident, and Macy cried every day, blaming herself for what happened, Waterfall was in despair at the tragedy of losing a daughter and a son. Even if one was a traitor of the pack.
After the burial of Derick, Liam and Macy were to name the children.
When Macy saw the name of the boy baby written on his certificate, she sobbed: Derick Leo Liam Torres, while the girl was called Mara Grace Liam Torres.
“You named him after your brother,”
“Yes, because he will fill that space in our hearts. Derick was a good man, and he died trying to save you and the babies. At the end of the day, he is the real hero of the story.”
” Thank you so much, Liam, I love you,”
” I love you too Macy,”
Liam fulfilled his promise of seeking revenge on Darren and his pack, The traitor Darren was stripped of his title, and he turned Rogue.
Waterfall lived in harmony and peace, Liam and Macy ruled over their family, overcoming every obstacle thrown at them along the way. A day was now set aside to celebrate the heroic act of Derick, and that day was called the: DERICK TORRES DAY.
