Chapter Five

Nessie, Sarabella, and Masen were asleep by the time Seth phased at the front door. It was an almost instantaneous explosion of noise as the Vampires and the wolves burst through the clearing. Each one was scowling and angry looking. Jacob ran all out, not bothering to phase back to human until he hit the threshold, pulling on sweat pants and racing up the stairs, the Vampires on his heels. They rushed into the room Seth had put her in.

"Carlisle," Jacob barked. "Could you check everything out?"

"Sure," he said as he pushed forward. He sat down on the edge of the bed, touching Nessie's face. She stirred.

"Carlisle," she said with a sleepy sort of smile. "You were wrong and I was right."

"I can see that," Carlisle said laughing.

"They're little," Jacob piped up.

"They're big enough," Seth retorted. Edward groaned.

"Can't you wolves imprint on your own kind?" Edward snarled. A few people looked at Seth curiously.

"Hey, like I really wanted to imprint on such a sticky, gross little thing?" Seth said as he looked at the tiny baby lovingly.

"Hey, that's great," Emmett said laughing his big, booming laugh. "More wolves in the family."

"Interesting," Carlisle said. "Their heartbeats are identical. No wonder I could only hear one. You did a fine job delivering them. Maybe Seth should be our family obstetrician."

"No way," Seth said shaking his head. "No offense, but I don't want to remember that for a long time."

"Please," groaned Leah as she entered the room. "That was enough to make me glad I can't."

"They're beautiful," Jacob said as he looked at his kids. "What are they?"

Nessie glared at him for a second. "They're your children, Jacob."

"I know that, Nessie," Jacob said as he crept closer. He peered down at the two babies, who glanced at each other skeptically before looking at their father. He turned to Edward. "Can you hear what they are thinking?"

"No," Edward admitted. He looked to Alice. "Can you see them?"

"Kind of hard to see anything when I can't see Jacob and Nessie," Alice said frowning. "Maybe Bella can take the kids a little distance from the wolves and Nessie."

"No," Nessie and Seth both said immediately, startling the twins. Sarabella started to cry and Masen reached across their mother and patted her hand. The little girl quieted and reached for Seth.

"I think she wants to go to you," Carlisle said to Seth. He looked at the others apologetically.

"So you know, it's nothing weird," Seth murmured as the baby more emphatically reached for him. He swore he saw the boy child roll his eyes.

"We know, we know," the others said shaking their heads. By now, the whole family would be interbred in a few years.

"How long until she matures and their offspring gets imprinted on by one of the other wolves?" Emmett asked Jasper in what should have been an under the breath comment only they could hear. Jacob turned his head and snarled at him, only slightly outdone by Seth's growl.

"It is a valid question," Carlisle said as picked up the small baby boy. "They are littler than you were Nessie, but you were also the only one in there, so that is to be expected. We don't know what to expect of the offspring of the offspring of an immortal. Bella's pregnancy lasted about a month or so. Nessie's lasted about four and a half."

"Maybe we don't need to worry about it yet," Seth murmured as he rocked the baby. He looked at Jacob and handed the snoozing baby to him.

"No worries yet, ok? Let's just monitor them like we did Nessie," Jacob said as he took his son from Carlisle. He held his daughter in one arm, his son in the other. He sighed. He loved them both so completely.
