Recap: "Oh Embry, I made breakfast earlier, it's in the microwave." Sadie said. "Come sit down here, Dekan. Embry will bring you some food before you all have to go to school."

Time passed in a blur for Dekan. The wedding that Alice and Rosalie planned for Dekan was beyond beautiful. The dress cost more than Dekan's life, she was positive of that. It had actual Swarovski crystals embedded all over it! Alice even had a twenty piece orchestra flown in from New York to play the music. Jasper had rented tuxes for every male there, including Sam and Embry and Jake who were in the wedding. Alice was her matron of honor. Emily was of course escorted by Sam; Leah by Jake, and Rosalie by Emmett. Bella was a little relieved she didn't have to wear a fancy dress so she could trip in front of everyone. When the time came for Dekan to walk down the aisle, Jasper held out his arm. Lola had agreed to stay the weekend so she could see her daughter get married. The right side of the church, Embry's side, was full of all of his Quileute and Makah reservation relatives and friends. The few people on the right side, Dekan's side, were her mother, Bella, Edward, Carlisle, Esme, and a few people she had made friends with at school. Rosalie had hired a videographer and photographer who was snapping beautiful pictures through the entire wedding. The reception was something to behold. You could definitely tell who most of the food was for. The entire pack attended the wedding, whooping and hollering when Embry kissed Dekan. There were no leftovers to take home after the reception however; the pack cleaned the plates. Literally. Then came the dancing. Jasper danced with Dekan during the first dance while Lola danced with Embry. Alice was aww'ing every chance she got, seeing how happy Embry and Dekan were. After a few hours, Embry picked Dekan up and headed for the door, smiling wickedly.
"Where do you think you're going? The wedding's not over yet!" Alice called out, making Embry turn around.
"My bride and I are going to get started on our honeymoon early." Embry said, smirking. Dekan blushed and laughed.
"Don't break the bed again!" Emmett called out, making everyone laugh.
"No promises." Embry said, walking out.
"Oh my God…" Esme said, laughing into Carlisle's neck.

Sam gave Embry two week off from patrol duty to celebrate his honeymoon. It was more giving the pack a break from Embry's near constant thought of "banging his wifey" as Jake so eloquently put it. Lola flew back for work the day after Dekan's wedding, giving them as a wedding gift half of the life insurance money for Jerry's death. Embry and Dekan bought a small cottage between the reservation and the Cullen's house so Jasper and Alice could visit Dekan without having to further break the treaty. Dekan and Embry both went to school during the day and two to three nights per week, Jasper and Alice came to stay with Dekan while Embry was out doing patrols on the reservation. Alice and Rosalie came over just about every day after school, helping Dekan paint and decorate the nursery. About five months into the pregnancy, Dekan really began showing, a very noticeable bump under her shirt. Jasper bought one of those handheld machines that when you press it to the mother's belly, you could hear the baby's heartbeat from the womb. The nights that Embry was off, he spent with that thing practically glued to Dekan's belly and the headphones over his ears. Dekan went each and every month to the hospital, so Carlisle could do an ultrasound and check up on the progress of Dekan's pregnancy. The morning of her fifth ultrasound, Alice called, practically screaming in excitement.
"DEKAN! Oh my GOD! Are you ready to go? Jazz and Rose and Em are all coming, bring Embry!" Alice said, before hanging up the phone. Dekan smiled, hanging the phone up.
"Embry, are you ready?" Dekan asked, looking over to Embry who was eating at the kitchen table. He nodded, taking one last bite. Just then, a horn honked from the driveway. Dekan grabbed her purse as Embry stood up, taking her hand and walking outside. Emmett and Rosalie were in the front of Emmett's big Jeep, Alice and Jasper sitting in the main last row. Embry opened the door, helping Dekan in and then getting in himself as well. Emmett headed for the hospital.
"Guess what you're having, Dekan!" Alice said, practically squealing with delight.
"Don't tell us yet! We want to wait." Dekan said, covering her ears and smiling.
"Aww, fine." Alice said, pouting.
After a few more minutes, Emmett pulled up to the hospital, parking. Embry and Dekan, followed by a giggling Rosalie and Alice, as well as Emmett and Jasper, all headed for Carlisle's office. The group waited in the office for a few minutes before Carlisle opened the door to the patient room beside his office.
"Everyone in here." Carlisle said, smiling. The lights were off and there was a machine on wheels set up beside the bed.
"Lie down, Dekan and pull your shirt up and move your pants down to your hips. We're going to see how you're doing." Carlisle said.
Dekan walked to the bed, laying down and pulling her shirt up to where her bra ended and moved her pants down so they were riding low on her hips.
"Sorry about the mess." Carlisle said with a laugh as he squirted the lubricant all over Dekan's tummy, then took the ultrasound machine and ran it over Dekan's raised belly.
"Ah, good strong heart, that's good." Carlisle said, showing pictures.
"Carlisle, can I tell her?" Alice asked, already knowing what was going to happen.
"Hold on, Alice. Let me check everything else, then you can." Carlisle said.
After a few more minutes, Carlisle brought a few images up on the screen, showing them to Embry and Dekan.
"What do you all see there?" Carlisle asked, smiling.
Embry squinted. Dekan stared, biting her lip.
"A boy?" Embry asked, smiling.
"Well, you're mostly correct." Carlisle said, smiling brightly.
"YOU'RE HAVING TWINS!!!" Alice shouted, jumping up and down.
"What?!" Dekan asked, pulling the screen closer.
"It's a boy and a girl! Twins! We're having twins!" Alice said, laughing.
"Oh my God…twins…that's…two babies…" Embry said, dumbstruck.
"Good logic, Embry." Emmett said, smiling.
"We're having twins, Embry! A boy and a girl!" Dekan said, smiling at her husband.
"A boy…and a girl…twins…in there." Embry said.
……

Emmett dropped Embry and Dekan back off at their cottage; they had the rest of the day and night to their selves. Dekan smiled, going off to their bedroom to change into the lingerie that Alice and Rosalie insisted she purchase. Embry was sitting on the couch, reading the pregnancy book that Emily had given Dekan a few months back. His eyes were going wide and his jaw was dropping as he read. He had just finished the short chapters on the fifth and sixth months of pregnancy when Dekan walked in the room, wearing a silk robe that hugged her belly perfectly.
"Hey there sexy." Dekan said, straddling Embry.
"Well hello yourself." Embry said, dropping the book.
"You want to come to the bedroom and check out what I bought?" Dekan asked, untying her robe to reveal her lingerie.
Embry's mind went blank. His wife was straddling him, giving him the hard on from hell. It was hard to think when Dekan was kissing his jaw line and his neck.
"I can't. I gotta go. Patrol." Embry said, sliding out from under Dekan, walking out of the house breathing hard.
Dekan sighed, shaking her head. Did Embry have to patrol? She thought he had the night off. She walked back to the bedroom, changing back into her normal clothes.
The next few nights followed that same pattern; Dekan trying to initiate sex (much much needed in her opinion) and Embry leaving, stating some excuse. Dekan laid in bed, trying to reason out why Sam was making Embry patrol every night. She decided to find out. The next morning, which was a Saturday, Dekan got up early and dressed, and headed for Sam's house. Fifteen minutes later, Dekan was opening the door.
"Sam, get out here!" Dekan said, in no mood for games. She was very frustrated.
"Hey there pretty mama." Sam said, rubbing Dekan's belly.
"Why are you making Embry patrol every single night?" Dekan asked, crossing her arms.
"What?" Sam asked, confused.
"You're making Embry patrol every night. Do you know how long it's been since we've had sex? Do you know how crazy my hormones are right now? Do you know…ugh!" Dekan said, throwing her arms up.
"I've not been making Embry work every night." Sam said.
"He said he has to go patrol." Dekan said, looking at Sam.
……
..
Two months later
……
..
"Alice, come get me!" Dekan said, crying into the phone. For the past two months, every time Dekan had tried to initiate sex with Embry, he left for a few hours.
"What's wrong? Are you okay? Are the babies okay?" Alice asked, getting worried.
"I-I n-n-need to talk to you!" Dekan said, wiping her eyes.
"We'll be right over." Alice said, hanging up.
Within five minutes, Alice arrived with Jasper and Carlisle in tow. Dekan was pacing the floor, so very frustrated that she was about to scream. Alice ran in, checking Dekan over.
"What's wrong, Dekan?" Carlisle asked.
"It's Embry! He's…he's…ugh!" Dekan said.
"He's what? Did he hurt you?" Jasper asked, growling.
"Is it normal to not have sex?" Dekan asked, looking at Carlisle.
"You and Embry haven't had any…relations lately?" Carlisle asked, trying to maintain some composure.
"Lately." Dekan said, snorting. "Try a little over two months!"
"Why?" Alice asked.
"I don't know! Every single time I try to get him to come to the bedroom and…" Dekan said, biting her lip "try to start something; he sort of just…leaves. For hours. I know he's turned on, but he just leaves!" Dekan said, tears rolling down her cheeks.
Alice stood up and hugged Dekan, letting her cry. Jasper was pacing around, ready to hurt Embry. Carlisle sat on the couch, watching.
"Is there a possibility he's cheating on you?" Carlisle asked, hating to ask the question.
"I don't know…he barely touches me. I've just been so…so…so horny that I could jump on anyone! I look at guys know and think "Gee, I wonder how loud they could make me scream?". That's so horrible!" Dekan admitted, her head in her hands, crying more.
"I'm going to go find out what in the hell that mongrel's problem is." Jasper said, walking out and slamming the door.
