Chapter 4: Baby
Emma's POV
I couldn't comply with the doctor's request no matter how much I wanted or tried to. It was as if I physically could not become human. Something inside of my body was stopping me from becoming human again. I just didn't know if it was instincts or pain.
"Come on Emma it's urgent that you do this," the doctor added.
I was about to shake my head when the pain suddenly intensified and I howled in pure pain. Every instinct in my body told me to get up and move somewhere else. So that's exactly what I did. I used every ounce of strength that I had, which wasn't a lot, and stood up.
Nobody even tried to stop me as I walked away. Or maybe they were just as shocked as I was by my sudden strength. I found a hiding place just in time for me to lose the last bit of strength I had and collapse from the pain. At least if I died here I wouldn't have any witnesses.
"Look there she is!" I heard someone yell frantically. I recognized the voice of Jacob. The guy from the coffee shop earlier. He was with the doctor.
"Emma please. I know this must be difficult but I need you to be human," the doctor said.
If I wasn't in so much pain and if I wasn't a wolf I'd be questioning the hell out of him about how he knew my name.
"She can't Carlisle. She's been trying but she literally can't. Something is stopping her,"
He sighed. "My knowledge of wolf anatomy is extremely limited I don't think I-"
"You have to try if not we'll lose her," Jacob said. "And for what it's worth I really think veterinary school is a worthy investment,"
"Okay but if anything goes wrong-"
"I trust you Carlisle,"
What they were saying wasn't exactly filling me with confidence but at this point I was out of options. Although when he began cutting I nearly tore his head off. If it weren't for Jacob I probably would've. Something about the way he looked at me and touched me was really comforting.
I didn't even have to look to know that I had begun loosing a lot of blood. I could feel myself getting dizzier and dizzier by the second. The worried look on Jacob's face kept getting bigger and bigger.
"Placental detachment," I heard Carlisle say and I immediately began to panic for the sake of my baby. "First it happened when your grandmother was pregnant with your mother, then when your mother was pregnant with you, and now with you and your baby. I really hope this cycle ends with you,"
Even though I had lost a lot of blood I was sure I heard him correctly. I didn't know why or how but somehow he knew who I was and who my family was. If I lived I could finally confront my family and find out why they abandoned me the way they did. I could get some closure on that chapter or my life.
I felt him reach inside of me and pull something out.
"Whoa," I heard both guys say at the exact same time.
I looked back and saw Carlisle holding, well not a baby, but rather a wolf pup. He was definitely a boy and he was definitely a wolf. He has the purest white fur and most beautiful blue eyes that I've ever seen.
"Amazing," Carlisle said. "Simply amazing,"
"How?" Jacob asked as he stared at my son the wolf pup.
"My theory," Carlisle stated as he put my son down. "Is that as a fetus he must've phased whenever his mother did. A wolf can't exactly give birth to a human baby without serious health complications. Your kind never ceases to amaze me Jacob. Just when I think I've learned all about your kind I come across something new and exciting to research and study,"
My son tried to walk over to me and that's when I realized that something else was wrong. He was walking funny. He was limping actually. Is it possible that one of his legs or arms was broken when that car hit me?
I didn't have much time to think about it as the dizziness suddenly became to intense for me to handle. In a last ditch effort to become a human again I succeeded before I lost consciousness from the blood loss. I looked at my wolf son one last time not sure that I would ever wake up and see him again.
