"Yeah... I think... if what my mother said was true, it should be easier for me to birth these three. Now I can barely imagine if you had to birth all four of ours beforehand.", Niko admitted as Luna gave a reluctant nod.
"True... I... I don't think I would've been able to get more than two with how things went.", Luna replied with a sigh. Niko kissed her on the lips, "All the same, we're parents...", with a soft sob of joy as he looked down at Axel, rubbing his head gently.
Luna smiled, leaning her head on his shoulder, "Yes, we are...", content to have Axel in her arms who is finally slowing down, clearly getting full of his first meal, and then let go of her nipple, and she patted his back gently, and he burped, wiggling and cooing at his parents before reaching for Niko.
Chuckling softly, "Already knackering for your poppa's attention, huh?", Luna smiled, warmly passing Axel over to Niko who instinctively held him, smiling as Axel snuggled and wiggled, searching for the right spot before settling down, and looked up at his poppa with a coo.
"You want a story, eh?", Niko smiled warmly as he often told stories about his planet from the first moment Axel and his siblings kicked, and Axel whined, causing Niko to chuckle, "Alright, then.", soon telling a story, and in due time, with Luna dozing off, and Axel deeply asleep, Niko quietly left the bed to the nursery only next door via a sliding door, putting Axel to bed, tucking him gently with a kiss to his forehead, and returned back to the bedroom, only to find Luna kneeling and posing.
Luna purred seductively, "Wanna pleasure me so hard that I can't think straight?", and Niko growled huskily, "By Sirius, you're a wild one.", his heart leaping at joy to see her wanting pleasure again, if not wanting to mate yet, he'll take it.
And so, an hour of oral and anal mind-blowing pleasure was made before they fell asleep for a short nap, and then Axel woke them up, and so their journey as parents began, but not quite beginning yet, as there's the triplets to come in time.
The family was in love with the newest addition of the brood, and to their amusement, the little ones brought Axel into a conversation of baby language and such. The rest of the day went peaceful and wonderful, along with the night.
In the early hours of the next morning, while it was still dark, Thorn began to be in labor, and since Dusk had missed Dante's birth, she made sure to be there by Thorn's side, with Luna at the other side of Thorn, with Vlad to be the one who will deliver the baby girl, much to his surprise, but Thorn told him since Vlad knew what to do after seeing what Miss Grimwood did with Dante, it should be fair for him to have a turn.
"At least it won't hurt as much this time around.", Vlad gave a slight joke as Thorn rolled her eyes. "Oh, that makes me feel so much better...", she gave a small growl. She obviously wasn't in the mood for many jokes right now while giving birth.
Vlad nodded, and Dusk patted her shoulder, "Easy, breathe, you got this, sis.", and Thorn nodded, taking deep breaths, feeling the contractions which is not very painful as last time, but still there, and she looked at Vlad, "Am I all dilated?".
Vlad reassured her, "Farther than last time. You're 3/4 dilated, my beloved siren. Couldn't be more than several minutes to be ready.", and Thorn was relieved to hear that, "Now I see what Sibella meant...", relaxing a bit, but still prepared for anything.
Luna chuckled, "You're very lucky, Thorn...I think I beat you all with Axel being the hardest one to birth.", and Thorn snorted, "Ain't a competition, but if it is, yeah, I have to agree with you...This is easier, but still painful.".
"But at least you had yours before.", Dusk reminded. "You already had Dante previously, so this isn't anything new for you compared to the rest of us.".
Thorn replied, "Don't forget about yourself either. You had Heather before, and now you're going to have a son.", with a chuckle.
Dusk smiled, "I still get surprised when I see this bulging baby belly of mine...I can't wait to see him, and hold him, and introduce him to his older sister.".
"Indeed. The brood of children is getting bigger by the day, starting once more with this little one of ours. Dante will be excited to meet his baby sister.", Vlad chuckled warmly as Thorn breathed deeply from another contraction.
Luna nodded, "Same thing for Axel, he's going to be happy to be the oldest over the triplets.", with a giggle.", smiling as Axel had been fed earlier, and now sleeping with Niko.
The girls agree on that, giggling and smiling, and then a few minutes later, Thorn exhaled, gasping softly, feeling something change, "Vlad?", and Vlad checked, smiling, "You're all dilated, Sally. Breathe and push!".
Thorn took a deep breath, and pushed upon another contraction, going a tad faster and harder than Luna did, and several minutes later, Vlad shouted, "I see her! She's peeking!", preparing to hold her as soon as her head's out.
"Wow... you weren't kidding, Vlad... this is actually easier than before...", Thorn gave out a small sigh of relief as she kept pushing.
She can feel the mild pain of her nether regions as her vagina stretched to fit her daughter's head coming through, and Vlad held her immediately as she emerged, "I got her! Push!".
Thorn grunted, pushing hard for the shoulders to get through, and once they were freed, Vlad pulled their daughter out, cleaning her up instantly, and she gave out a loud cry, wiggling and whimpering as Vlad smiled tearfully, "I got you, darling, I got you...", a sob-chuckle breaking out as he realized that he has a third child...Sibella first, and then Dante, and now...
Thorn smiled, reaching out, "Let me have her, Vlad...", and Vlad nodded, passing her into Thorn's arms, wiggling and crying as Thorn rocked her softly, "Shh, shh, it's okay, honey, Mama's here...", smoothing their daughter's cries as she quieted down.
Luna smiled and switched positions with Vlad as he joined Thorn, smiling happily as they took their full first look at their daughter, with Dusk gently, swiftly clicking her fingers to clean up the mess and cutting the cord from their daughter, clipping it up.
Vlad whispered, "Oh, Sally, she looks like you...", as their daughter has Thorn's dark reddish-black hair and pale tan skin, Vlad's smile and dark blue eyes, and her nose looks like it's from her grandmother, all healthy with 10 fingers and toes.
Thorn smiled gently, "And you, Vlad...She's a beautiful mix of us...What do you want to name her? I picked Dante last time.", and Vlad sighed deeply, smiling at their daughter in awe and love, seeming to be at thought for a moment before speaking, "Indirectly, if it wasn't for the previous ladies of my life, I would never have known true love, or you, or had Dante and this little one...How do you feel about calling her Talia?".
"Talia... what a wonderful name for her.", Thorn said as Vlad was almost starting to tear up hearing her accept that. "Oh, Sally...", he whispered as Thorn chuckled, "Easy... let's let Talia have some breathing room.".
Talia cooed, wiggling her little hands before her belly grumbled, and she then whined hungrily, and Vlad chuckled softly, removing Thorn's bra, and with a bit of adjustment, Talia then latched into a nipple, suckling happily.
Luna smiled, "Well, looks like you got everything on hand. You want us to tell the news?", and Vlad nodded, "That would be brilliant, and one of you, get Dante. He's probably wondering what's taking us.".
Dusk chuckled warmly, "Okay, I will get him.", and the girls left, and Thorn kissed Vlad on the lips, "What did I tell you? We got lucky from being so busy that wonderful night of turning and all.".
"You sure did...Talia, our beautiful vampiress...Sibella is going to be so happy, to have a little sister to play tea parties with, or whatever Talia wants to do...Oh, of course, she spoils Dante already, but there's something about sisterhood that makes me smile.", Vlad murmured warmly, rubbing Talia's head gently as she kept at her meal.
"She'll certainly be spoiled rotten, that's for sure.", Thorn chuckled as everyone was taking deep breaths, at least feeling a bit more at ease for the moment since things were calming down once more. Still, the births were not done yet.
The whole day was spent with the family getting to know Talia, especially Dante, who's now old enough to crawl, surprisingly being so careful with his baby sister. Of course, with the births still waiting to happen, they decided to wait until it's all settled down within a week or so, and then have a family reunion in Dreamcrest Sanctuary.
So, the next day after Talia's birth and introduction to the family, it was Niko's turn, announcing that one of the babies has turned headfirst, ready to be brought into the world, one of his daughters as it turns out.
Niko's father, Pixanu has his turn to help deliver, with Luna at his side, and it is both harder and easier than Niko thought. Turns out laying on his back made it harder to push, but easier to relax when on his side.
"So, I have to ask...", Luna said. "But is it just one at a time, or will all three of them be coming in the next few hours? Not all at once, of course, but surely once one is born the others will follow suit.".
Pixanu replied, "Well, usually, beg your pardon, but when it comes to full alien and all, it takes one day at a time for a baby, but with this situation, it might be one baby per hour, or perhaps by several hours within the day, like say, right now, we're in the morning for this first one, so it's possible for the second one to come within the afternoon, and then the third in the evening.".
"Ah...That actually makes sense.", Luna nodded, and looked at Niko, "How are you feeling, Karo?", and Niko was about to reply when he winced, moaning at another contraction, "Nervous...By Sirius, please tell me that the birth canal is open, Father!".
"Almost there...", Pixanu explained as Niko rolled his eyes. "I'm sorry you have to go through this three times, love...", Luna kissed Niko's cheek.
Niko smiled at her, "Hey, when I said I'd do anything for you and our children, I also meant this. All children are precious, after all.", squeezing her hand lovingly before moaning at another contraction.
A few minutes later, Pixanu announced, "The birth canal is open, Karo! Push, son!", and Niko squeezed Luna's hand as he took a deep breath and pushed, moaning and gasping in pain, and it took him 20 minutes before he felt something change, hearing Pixanu, "That's it, I see the water bag! Remember what I told you?".
Niko nodded, moaning as he managed to hum his musical sound louder than ever before, and felt water sloshing across his thighs as the vibrations broke the water bag, and he took a deep breath, grunting, pushing, shouting out in pain, feeling something leave him.
A moment later, there was a wailing sound, and he raised his head up, panting, looking at the wiggling, crying, wet baby in his father's hands with tears falling down his cheeks, and Luna gasped, sobbing, kissing Niko's cheek, "You did it, Karo!", surprised at the method of birthing as even when she knew about the belly button becoming the birth canal for intersex men like him.
"Is she okay?", Both parents asked at the same time as Pixanu laughed and smiled, "Yes... she's a bouncing girl... and she's more than fine now that she's finally born.".
Niko got up to sit against the piled-up pillows with Luna's help, reaching out as Pixanu warmly handed their daughter to Niko, placing her gently, "She's a loud crier, that's for sure.", as Niko held her, kissing her forehead, shushing her gently, glad for a bit extra room to rest his arms as his baby bump got smaller, but still big.
"It's okay, darling, oh, shh, I'm here...Poppa's here...", Niko whispered softly as their daughter calmed down, crying quietly, with Luna tearing up happily as she leaned forward, "Oh, Karo...She's beautiful...".
Their daughter looks like Niko in his alien form, without a tail or feathers, but in a dark tan liquid-like color with freckles, and the head's human size, bearing fine strands of Luna's wild red hair, having 8 fingers, and 10 toes, having Niko's nose and smile, while her eyes are teal.
"She's perfect...", Niko whispered as Luna chuckled. "Don't say that... you'll make the rest of our children jealous! Our other daughter will probably want to be perfect too.", she teased as Niko chuckled.
"You're right... can't play favorites with our children.", Niko replied. Luna smiled softly as she rubbed their daughter's head gently, "What are you gonna call her?", while their daughter cooed and snuffled curiously, and Niko thought for a moment before smiling and glancing at Luna.
"Well, what do you think of the name Serena? Sounds fairly fitting with her because she looks so serene right now.", Niko suggested.
Luna blinked in thought, looking at their daughter, and smiled, taking her little hand in her finger, and she chuckled as their daughter didn't cry anymore, just cooing, looking at her momma, whispering, "It's perfect...Welcome home, Serena...".
Niko kissed her on the temple, and Luna kissed him on the lips in return before looking at Serena with adoration and love in their eyes, and Serena cooed, enjoying the attention for a few minutes before her belly grumbled, and she whimpered, blinking at them.
Luna chuckled softly, "Time to feed you, my peaceful one. I know you don't have breasts, but could your nipples still work for this?", and Niko smiled softly, "Let's find out if the human genes of making Serena and the others has helped in that.", adjusting Serena to his nipple.
"If not, I can easily take over.", Luna offered as Niko nodded, "I know... but hopefully I can do this so I can at least give you a break... it'll be a bit rough if you have to feed all four of our children.".
And with that said, Niko watched Serena taking his nipple, instinctively suckling, and he breathed in relief when he felt milk coming through his nipple as she settled to enjoy her feeding.
Luna laughed in response, "Looks like we don't have to worry then about giving all four a appetizer at different times as I could feed at the same time.", and as if Axel heard her, there was a hungry cry from the nursery next door.
"I swear, the timing's just right.", Luna chuckled, almost rolling her eyes, and left the bed to get Axel out of his bassinet and feed him on the way back to the bed.
"They're probably smarter than we give them credit for.", Niko chuckled as Axel latched onto Luna. "How are you feeling?", Luna asked him as he shook his head, "Alright for now... of course, I've got two more to give birth to...".
Pixanu replied, "All the same, I will stay. And Serena is a great name for my first granddaughter...Can you believe that Karo here is a day younger than Tocci, but he's first to be a parent?", with a fond smile.
Luna chuckled, and whispered to Niko, "And first to mate.", with a blush. "Just taking a bit longer for my sister to find her mate.", Niko chuckled as Pixanu nodded. "So, should I just stay put then for a little bit before the next one comes?".
Pixanu replied, "You can walk around and use the bathroom to get used to the new weight and all. Remember, my theory of timing would possibly be wrong.", with a hum.
"Yeah, I suppose you're right.", Niko said as he slowly started to get up. "Better to move around a bit at least before having to be laying down once more since it'll probably be sooner rather than later with the next one.".
Luna smiled comfortingly, "And it will be special again.", as Niko succeeds, keeping a firm hold on Serena as she kept suckling, and slowly, carefully walks around.
Several minutes later, Axel and Serena finished their meal, and was read to sleep by a story thanks to Luna's turn for some minutes with Niko dozing on and off and was put in their bassinet in the nursery.
Halfway in the second hour, Niko felt another baby turning over to be headfirst, and nothing yet until a minute after the clock came into the third hour, contractions started once more.
"Yep... another one is coming...", Niko sighed as he grunted before quickly getting help. "Hopefully this one will be a bit easier since you know how to go through this...", Luna said.
