Maddy and Rhydian always looked forward to the full moon each month so when Maddy fell pregnant she didn't think full moons would be any different.
The first 3 months of Maddy's pregnancy weren't any different but when the 4th month came, Maddy wasn't happy!
Month 4…
Maddy and Rhydian where lying on their bed cuddling. Rhydian was on his back with Maddy's head resting on his chest. He had one arm wrapped around her, giving her extra warmth and his other hand resting on her small baby bump. They were laying in a comfortable silence when Rhydian spoke up "So ready for tonight's full moon?"
"I guess, why wouldn't I be?"
"Oh it's just yesterday when ya mum and dad where round, and you and your mum where talking about baby names…" Rhydian started when Maddy interrupted,
"Oh my god! I don't care what she says, I like the name Riley for a boy!" she yelled.
"Yeah mads, I know and I like it too but she just wants to be part of this whole thing so don't be too harsh…"
"Yeah I know Rhydian," she said in a small voice.
"Anyways like I was saying," Rhydian re-started, "While you two were talking, well arguing, I was talking to your dad and he said how from now on full moons will be really tiring for you and a lot of effort as it will be time for the baby to get stronger and it will make you feel weaker until you transform back to your human-self," Rhydian explained.
"Oh… well it's an opportunity for the baby to get stronger then it doesn't matter how weak I feel, after all its only one night a month," Maddy said in a worried voice.
"Hey, I'm gonna look after you, you have nothing to worry about. Think about it as a chance to relax." Rhydian stated.
"Yeah, you always do look after me…" She yawned, "Your gonna be a great dad."
He simply kissed her head and let her drift off to sleep, his arms still protectively wrapped around her because no matter what happened he would always look after her.
Month 8…
It had been 4 more months since then and every full moon, Rhydian kept his promise, he looked after her.
With not long left until the cub would arrive, Rhydian carried Maddy down bridal style into the den for the full moon.
He gently laid Maddy down on an old duvet and some pillows then went to lock the doors. When he turned around, Maddy had changed and now lye a beautiful golden brown wolf with a large belly snoring softly and quieting and sleep overtook her.
Rhydian smiled to himself at the sight of his pregnant fiancé and turned to his wolf-form.
He paraded around Maddy for 10 minutes, checking the surrounding and making sure everything was safe for his alpha and lay next to her and wrapped himself around her while she did the same because even know she was asleep, she knew when her wolf-mate was near.
Only 1 month left, Rhydian thought to himself excitedly before falling asleep himself.
Maddy was right, he was going to be a great dad.
