Chapter 7
I knew I had to call my dad. George would be worrying like crazy and might try to find me. I grab my cell phone and dialed his number. "Buck? Oh sweet jesus I miss you so much. Please say you are coming home?" George asks. I smile sadly. "Not yet Dad, I am better but I still need medical treatment. This sickness really got me." I say. "Really?" He asks sadly. I sigh. Yeah, they are transfering me to a medical center in Switzerland." I lie. Jesus I am so bad, I am so going to get grounded for this. "What? No you are not going to Switzerland. Bucky no I am going on a plane." George says. "Dad! It's really more of a spa than anything else and anyway I bet I will be better by the time you arrive." I say.
"Are you sure?" George asks. "Yeah dad. Look I gotta go. I love you." I say when I see Steve walk in. "Buck.... I love you too." George says. "Bye." I say and hang up. Steve sighs and kneels in front of me and grabs both of my hands. He is most likely to say sorry. He has been doing that a lot lately. "I'm sorry that I have been so angry lately. Steve says.
See, told you.
"I would be too." I say. He smiles shyly. "I've left you alone in this." Steve says laying his hed onto my leg. I run my fingers through his blonde hair and I feel him relax. "That's marriage. " I say and he chuckles. "They do say that the first year is the hardest. " Steve says making us both laugh. Steve then stops and frowns. "What was that?" He asks. "What?" I ask. "I just thought I heard....." He trails off. "Stevie? What's wrong?" I ask getting concerned. "Keep talking." He demands all of a sudden. "Like what?" I ask laughing a little. He smiles and says nothing. "Steve?" I ask sitting up straighter but he touches my swollen stomach. I furrow my eyebrows. What is wrong with my husband?
"He likes th sound of your voice." Steve says. My eyes widen and I was shocked. Wait, can Steve read its mind? " You can hear him? Wait him?" I ask rasing my eyebrow. "When I picture the baby, I picture it as a boy." He says. "What if it is a girl?" I ask. "Then it's a girl. I will love our child no matter what." He says. I smile. "He can hear my voice as well. He likes the sound of my voice too." He says and I giggle and I was on the verge of tears. "What do you hear?" I ask smiling. "It's so strange. I thought I was like me but no, he is more like you Bucky. Good, pure. He is so happy." He says while rubbing my stomach and this time the tears fall. I laugh.
"Of course you are. How can you not be? I love you so much. What do you hear now?" I ask waiting for his response. "He loves you too Bucky." He says and I laugh wetly and Steve kisses my stomach. "I love you." I say. Steve smiles. "I love you too Buck." He says and pulls me into a kiss.

Brock walks into the kitchen. "You wanted to talk to me." Brock says. "Yeah we need your help." Sarah says. "What do you mean?" Brock asks sitting down. "We are low on blood. We need more for Bucky." Joseph says. That immediately catches the wolf attention. "Show me." He demands. Joseph shows them and there was only three packs left. "So, that's the last of it?" Brock asks worried. "Bucky could deliver early as tomorrow. If he is to survive we need more right now." Joseph says.
"And you need to feed. You need to be at the strongest." Sarah says to her husband lightly touching him on the shoulder. "You guys are the enemies now. Sam won't hesitate to kill you on the spot." Brock warns. "Thor will come with us. He is the strongest." Sarah says firmly. "That won't be enough." Brock says sternly. "We have no choice here Brock. We have no options left. We have to try now." Joseph says. "You risk your lives for him?" Brock asks.
"Yes. Bucky is part of our family now." Sarah says. "Yeah, I can see that. This really is a family. I know what I have to do." Brock says. They huddled close so Brock could tell his plan and they all agree and the plan was going to take action tonight.
Brock heads out with Pepper and T'callah. He told the the plan he just hoped that they acted well. They walk onto Sam's territory and waits. "Brock! They're coming!" T'challah and they get ready and play the act. "We should change form. We can't protect ourselves like this." Pepper starts. "No. I just wanna talk. It would be nice to hear you too!" Brock says loudly so they could hear them.
Paul, Jake and Embry shows up. "This isn't your territory anymore. How are your new family treating you?" Paul asks. "Just great." Bock says smirking. "You coming back Brock?" Jake asks. "Not until I finish this." Brock says. "Then what do you want?" Embry asks. "I want you to take Pepper and T'challah back." Brock says sternly. "What!" Pepper says loudly and clearly betrayed. She is totally faking it but she is a good actress. "Brock!" T'challah says heart broken. He is young but he has potential. "Quiet!" He snap. "I want them to be safe. And I want this over, I need Sam to wait. Wait until Bucky is seperated from the problem." Brock says. "You mean till he's dead?" Paul asks and Brock clenches his jaw.
"Ease up Paul." Embry says. He was Brock's friend but will always be Brock's friend no matter what. "Then what?" Paul snaps at Embry causing him to flinch. Brock huffs. "Tell Sam when the moment comes, that I will be the one to destroy it." Brock says crossing the line. "Brock." T'challah says shocked. "I'm the only one who can. They trust me." Brock growls.
Not too far from Brock and the others Sarah, Joseph and Thor runs through the woods. Two other wolves were chasing the and they were fast. They knocked Sarah down but Thor quickly throws the wolf off of her. They sprint and jump over the river landing onto there territory and run off as the wolves howl.
Paul growls. "You played us!" He yells furious. "They need blood for Bucky." Brock says and they run off. Broc relaxes and looks at Pepper and T'challah. "Good job guys." He praises. "But you aren't actually killing the baby are you?" T'challah asks. "What? No, of course not. No way in hell I would hurt Bucky like that." Brock says and he sees the younger wolf relax.

Jane and I were talking as Steve and Brock came in. "Hey, yo okay?" I ask when Brock comes closer. "Yeah, I'm not the one carrying a demon." He teases and I rolled my eyes. "This is pretty important. You should tell them." Jane says not giving up on the conversation that we were talking about before the Alpha's came in. "What now?" Brock asks. "Jane is trying to get Bucky to pick baby names." Steve says trying to be helpful.
"Well, let's hear them." Brock says and sits down. "Well for the boy I was thinking.... maybe Justin." I say. "Okay." Brock says. "And for the girl I was thinking Katrina Winter Rogers." I say. I feel pretty strong that the baby is going to be a girl. After all I am the child's mother. "Katrina?" Brock questions.
Was the name bad? "Is it too werid?" I ask doubting myself at the moment. "Uhhhhh." Broc says. "No. I think it is beautiful. Unique for this situation." Steve says and I smile. "He likes it." I say smugly. Okay now that you think about it. it is really beautiful." Jane says. I smile. Can you pass me my drink?" I ask as Natasha comes in. She passes me the cup and I bend to reach for it when I hear a loud snap and unbearable pain ran through my body. I couldn't scream the only thing I could get out was a gasp and a whimper as the pain was too fierce to even speak.
I went down hard but both girls helped me down and Steve catches my head before it smacks the ground. Intense pain ran through my stomach and Steve picks me up quickly. They quickly got me to Joseph's medical lab. Natasha was on the phone, probably calling him and Steve looked so scared. I must be in labour and I whine in distressed. "Jane pass me the morphine." Steve demands and she dose.
I pant roughly and slam my head back into the pillows and tears run down my cheeks. "Joseph says that the placenta must have detached." She says. Steve curses. "Hang in there baby." Steve says. 'Stevie, it hurts." I whimper out. "I know, but it will be over soon." Steve says. "He's comin as fast as he can." Natasha informs and ends the phone call. Jane grbs the scalpel. "We need to do it ourselves." She says but Steve grabs her wrist.
"We need to let the drug kick in." Steve says. "The baby is dying!" She says loudly. I gasp and whine. "Get her out now!" I yell as a new round of pain licks up my broken spine. Must be why I can't move my legs. Its going to fucking hurt but I wasn't going to carry my child only to have it die now. "Look at me Bucky." Brock says and I do. I wasn't totally sure who cut my stomach open but I shrieked as the pain becomes ten times worse. I yell on top of my lungs like I was screaming murder.
I see Jane hesitate and Brock tackle her down. "Natasha get her out of here!" Steve yells and she does. I continue to scream in pain and my fingers big into the medical bed. "Chamge him! He's dying!" Broc yells. "Not yet. He is still in there." He says and my vision was blurring but I see him bend down and do something and my body instantly relaxes and I hear a baby cry. The baby cry pierces the room. Steve smiles. "Hi baby. It's Katrina." He says. I knew it was going to be a girl. Mother's knows best after all. I smile as I see her little body. "You're so beautiful." I whisper quietly.
My breathing slows and I let my eyes close. It was so hard to open them again. "Steve." I whisper and my vision goes black.
