There's a time jump in this chapter.

Happy POV

"Uncle Hap!" Monica yelled. "Auntie Bri is having the babies!"

I dropped my wrench and stood up. "What?"

"She's having the babies!" She yelled. "She's like omg omg omg this hurts!"

I ran past Monica and found Bri sitting on the sofa looking very much in pain and in labor. "Babe."

"Happy!" She yelled through gritted teeth. "I think it's time!"

"Oh shit." I froze where I was standing, not sure of the proper protocol. "Got to get you to the hospital."

"Yeah." She shook her head while she gripped her belly.

"I'll get her bag!" Monica yelled. "You get her to the car Uncle Hap!"

I looked at the eight year old and smiled. I was happy she was more level headed in this situation than I was. "Alright Bri, um let's get you up." I grabbed her hands and pulled her to her feet. "Did your water break?"

"Yeah." She nodded. "It felt weird."

I felt her grip on my hand tighten up as the pain rushed through her. "We'll get you hopped up on drugs in no time." I pulled open the Jeeps door and helped her in just as Monica came out of the house toting a bag behind her. I rushed and locked the door.

"Get in!" Bri yelled. "I gotta get these monsters out of me!"

"Auntie Bri!" Monica yelled. "We're here for you!"

"Oh shit." Bri gripped her belly again as I pulled out. "Why does this hurt so much! Why would people do this shit on purpose?" She looked at me and I wiped her tears away.

"Fuck." I muttered. "Bri, we'll be there in no time." I took the quickest path to her hospital.

"Call Nik." She looked at me. "Hap." She gripped my arm and her nails dug into me. "What the fuck are you wearing?"

I looked down at my coveralls. "I was working on my fucking bike. Didn't think you'd go into labor today."

"Me either." She shook her head. "I feel like my insides are trying to push out of my fucking body. I'm never doing this shit again. No fucking way. No way! Keep your swimmers out of me."

I bit back a laughed and rubbed her lower back as I pulled in front of the hospital and stopped the Jeep. "Let's get you in a wheelchair."

"Oh fuck." Her mouth dropped open and her face twisted into a pained expression. A nurse came and helped me get her into a wheelchair and wheeled her inside.

"What's her name?" The nurse asked.

"Brianna Hohrykova." I said. "I forgot her doctor's name."

"It's okay." She said. "We can page the doctor based on her name."

"Holy shit." Bri shook her head.

"What?" I rubbed her shoulders.

"Did you see how fat that dude was?" She smiled up at me.

"Bri this is serious! You're having the twins!" Monica yelled. "We can look at fat people later!"

"I was trying to take my mind off the pain." Bri gripped the front of my coveralls. "This is your fault!"

"No!" I shook my head. "You're the one responsible for the pills Brianna."

"Oh my fuck." She blurted. "Feel my belly."

"Why is it hard?" I gaped at the nurse then at Bri.

"Contractions." Bri grimaced as we helped her up out of the wheelchair.

"Gotta get her into this gown." The nurse handed it to me. "Completely naked."

"Oh shit." Bri swatted my hands away as I tried to pull her shirt over her head. "Don't touch me!"

"Brianna." I looked at her. "You can't do this shit yourself."

She rolled her eyes and relented to letting me and Monica undress her and pull the gown on her. She kept her socks on and I helped her into bed just as the doctor walked in with a huge smile on his face.

"How's the pain?" He hovered over her.

"Unbearable." She growled.

"I will see what I can get you, hopefully you're early enough to get the good stuff and it'll numb you right up." He walked back out of the room.

"Hap." She grabbed me by my collar. "Have them get these monsters out of me the fastest way possible."

"Doing everything." I rubbed her lower back. "Your doctor went to go get the anesthesiologist."

"Still." She whispered. "I feel like I'm losing all my insides. If I can't push make sure they cut them out of me."

I rolled my eyes. "Whatever you want Brianna."

"Where is Nik?" She looked at me.

"She's on her way." I smiled. "Promise."

I pulled out my phone and stepped out of the room while Bri started screaming and Monica rubbed her lower back.

"Nik, it's Hap. Bri's in labor. We're at the hospital." I said quickly. "She's screaming for you."

"I'll be right there." She said and then the line went dead.

I walked back into the room and Bri was glaring at me, like I was the one hurting her and not the babies. "She's on her way, I just checked."

"My pussy is falling out." She shook her head and Monica started to jump up and down and shake out her arms as she started to panic.

"Go sit outside." I tapped Monica. "Don't need you seeing any of this anymore. No arguments."

"Alright! Make sure it doesn't fall out!" She gave Bri one sorry look before walking out.

"I'll push it back in." I called behind her.

"Oh God Hap." Bri looked at me through tears. "I should have fuckin' took birth classes or some shit. Reading books...oh shit."

"Yeah well too late now." I rubbed her tears away. "You're strong you can get through this."

"My vagina is going to be wrecked." She grabbed my hands.

"I love you Brianna."

"I love you too Happy." She gave me a kiss. "Never again!"

"I don't feel anything." Bri looked over her shoulder at me. "I feel good."

I laughed. "Yeah." She had screamed for two hours straight before she got her epidural and screamed for fifteen minutes after that before the medicine numbed her and she couldn't feel anything but a slight pressure.

"Let's get these kids out." She smiled. "I think I'm ready."

"You're not." I shook my head. "Doctor checked five minutes ago."

"What?" She looked at me like I just dropped a huge bomb. "Stop lying."

"I'm not." I laughed as Nik came back in the room with snacks.

"Here." She dropped a small box into my hands. "Toothpicks. Swiped them from the caf."

"Thanks." I smiled at her. "Why so many snacks?"

"It's a show." She laughed. "Not every day I get to see my sister have her body ripped open by babies."

"I will kill you." Bri looked at us. "Can I have some of those?" She pointed to the bag of chips I held in my hand.

"No." I said. "You can have ice chips though."

"No." She rolled her eyes.

"Alright Dr. Hohrykova, let's check you one more time." The Dr parked himself between her legs.

"Damn, not even going to take her to dinner first?" Nik laughed.

"Nope." He laughed as he snapped on blue gloves. "Alright, I'm just gonna go right in."

"Am I ready?" Bri asked.

"Yeah, my dear. You're ready to push." He stood. "I'll get my team and we'll see if we can't get the twins out. Boy first, girl second?" He asked with a laugh.

"I don't care." Bri laughed. "I just want to push the monsters out already."

"We're about to have babies!" Nik smacked me in my chest. "Suit up daddy!"

"Calm down." I said as I pulled on the garb the nurse handed me as she and the doctor walked back in. "You suit up too."

"Already am." She laughed and pulled off her hoody to reveal scrubs that said Auntie all over them. "I'm prepared."

"Don't let Nik in there." Bri said. "I don't need her down there."

"Seen it all before." Nik took a peek. "Omg! That's new."

"Shut up." Bri hissed. "Just grab a leg and let's get the monsters out."

I stood off to the side. Not knowing if I was ready to watch a head emerge from my Queen's pussy just yet. I looked at Bri who smiled then at Nik who was all up in the mix with the doctors and nurses.

SOASOASOA

Bri POV

I felt happy that the labor and delivery process was over.

"You did amazing." Happy gave me a quick kiss. "Both are healthy, got all the right amount of limbs and the right body parts."

"Yeah?" I smiled at him. "Where's baby boy at?"

"He's sleeping." He smiled. "She won't let me put her down."

"Aww. Daddy's little girl already." I laughed.

"Smiley." He nodded. "You called it on the nickname babe." He sat down on the bed and passed her to me.

"She's glaring, like you." I looked at her face, she liked like she was mimicking Happy's glare. "She's gorgeous. Look at all of this damn hair babe. Prepare for me to put bows and headbands on her."

"Bri." I looked and saw Kozik standing apprehensively at the door.

"Come in Herm the Worm. Come see what we made." I smiled.

"She's gorgeous." He looked down at Smiley. "What's her name?"

"Smiley." Happy rasped.

"Legally?" He shook his head and looked at me.

"No." I laughed. "Alessandria Nikolina Lowman."

"Thank God." He handed her back to Happy. "I thought you were really naming her Smiley or Harley."

"Last minute, we changed our minds." Happy said.

"What about this mean muggin guy?" He stood over our son before picking him up.

"His name is Aleric Isaiah Lowman." Happy said. "Ruler of All."

"He's got a mean face like you Bri." He looked at me then back at the sleeping bundle of blue.

"Look at you." Esai stepped in. "You look like a proud mama."

"I am." I smiled and gave him a hug.

"Look at her. Chachi you and Hap made some gorgeous kids." He smiled down at Smiley who was trying to look around at all the men.

"Thanks man." Happy gave him a quick hug.

"You guys have like sixty people waiting to make their rounds." Esai laughed. "I had dibs because I'm basically your brother."

"Marcus and Diana here?" I sat up and looked at him.

"Yeah, Dalia too." He smiled.

"Yay." I smiled. "I want them next."

"I'm stealing him." Kozik held up Aleric. "Me and the ruler are going to get along well."

"Aleric and Alessandria." I said. "They have to be a package deal."

"I can deal as long as Ale isn't a pain in the ass like her mom is." He looked at me and then to Happy.

"Ale?" Happy looked at his friend. "I think Aleric is the one that'll give you shit brother."

"Not my boy Ricky." He shook his head. "May have his mom's mean face but I think he'll be quiet like you."

"Ricky and Ale." I smiled. "They'll love their Uncle Koz."

"Good, I love them already." He smiled at me. "Lowman Twins."

"First set of twins this week." I nodded.

"How long you in here for?" He handed me another envelope.

"What's this?" I looked at it. "Two more days."

"It's from Jax." He said. "Sending his regards most likely."

"Could have sent them with Nik." I tore open the envelope. "Holy shit." I let the letter drop to the floor. "That is not from Jax."

"It says from Jax." Happy picked up the envelope.

"Yeah." I nodded. "But look what's inside the envelope."

He looked and crumpled the envelope in his hands. "I'm not leaving this room. Koz, I need you to get Aztecs or Mayans posted here at all times until we leave."

"What's wrong?" Kozik looked at us.

"I've been marked." He replied as he sat back down in his chair.

#

"What's wrong?" I looked at Happy who was expertly holding both sleeping babies. He wasn't talking but he was thinking loudly.

"Worried." He finally said on a sigh.

"About?" I swung my legs off the bed with a wince and looked at him.

"Protecting you three." He frowned. "I don't want your ass getting involved this time around Brianna. We got the kids now and I need you to worry about them and not me."

"Happy." I walked over and sat next to him. "This shit, we're in this together. I won't go all Rambo or whatever but I'm going to worry. My step dad marked you. You're on his hit list. We got to take him out before he touches you."

"Brianna." He said in a tone that he had only used one other time before with me. "Relax. I need you relaxed and thinking straight. Stay out of this shit if not for me but for the kids. Let me and the Sons handle this shit. Let the Aztecs and Mayans help. You just need to relax and be a mom. You're not a mob boss anymore baby."

"Alright." I resigned. "I won't get involved. I don't you involved either. The kids need their father. Need to know you, grow up with you. I will be pissed if you go get yourself killed."

"I ain't gonna die Brianna." His voice was deep and authoritative. "I love you. Go lay down."

"I love you too." I kissed him before standing up to get into bed. I knew no matter how much I pleaded with that man to stay out of the problem that he would be in the thick of it. I'd be damned if I sat back and didn't at least try to offer some form of help.

SOASOASOA

Juice POV

I let my head drop back onto the black leather table. The buzzing of the tattoo machine numbed my senses. It made the thoughts of Natalie putting the heat on me and my brothers retreat for the time being. No matter the shit that I went through with Natalie, one thing was for sure. Luna was my daughter and would always be my daughter.

"All done Juice." Rocky said as she wiped the excess ink off my wrist. "Looks good."

I examined the tattoo quickly. The script was gorgeous. Luna. She was marked on my wrist forever now. "Thanks." I let her wrap it up. "How much do I owe you?"

"Nah." She shook her head. "This one is on the house. Since it's for your daughter and all."

I smiled at her. "Thanks, I got you next time you need something at the shop."

"Good lookin' out." She stood. "Later Juice."

"Yeah, Later." I dropped to the floor and headed out of the tattoo shop. I made the quick way to my bike. Lighting up before I pulled on my helmet and started up my precious Dyna. Who I now loved almost as much as I loved my girls.

I pulled out of my spot and made the quick journey home. It was a cool night out. I wondered if I would like it better of I lived outside of Charming. Oakland, maybe. Natalie had lived there. Now Happy and Kozik did. I was pretty sure Jax was out that way too. No club meetings had been called lately. It seemed like the drama died right with Bri and Nik's mom.

I parked in front of the house and jogged up the path. I let myself in and found Natalie on the sofa singing to Luna. Her voice was pretty and I couldn't help but smile but I also wanted to talk to her.

"Hey." I rubbed her shoulder.

"Hey babe." She smiled. "What happened to your wrist?"

"I got Luna's name tattooed on my wrist." I smiled at my daughter who was moving her little hands around.

Just as I sat down my phone vibrated. I pulled it out of my pocket and frowned. "I gotta go." I stood. "Club shit."

"Now?" She looked at me.

"Yeah." I kissed her head. "I'll be home as soon as we're done there. I promise you that."

"Good." She smiled. "Love you."

"Love you too." I smiled before jogging back out of the door.

"We've got another Russian problem." Jax said as he twirled the gavel in his hands. "Ignoring the advice of a wise person, we didn't kill the person we should have killed first. Kukov has marked Hap."

All of us looked and started to murmur. "For death?" I asked.

"No." Tig smirked. "He marked him to be his little bitch."

I rolled my eyes and scoffed. "You really think he'll kill Happy? He would have done it already. They've been stateside for weeks now. Why wait until Bri gave birth?"

"Who knows?" Jax shrugged.

I looked at him. Everything started clicking in my head. "Bri sent Natalie to Kukov with some type of envelope. Now she's been marked too. Bri has enforcers watching her though."

"How long you know about this?" He looked at me with a frown.

"Not long few days or week or whatever but before Bri went into labor." I shrugged. "I didn't think it had anything to do with the club since she hadn't involved any of us. Not even Happy seems to be involved."

"He is now." Bobby said. "Bri's still more trouble than she's worth."

"It has everything to do with us now." Jax slapped an envelope on the giant redwood table. "I've been marked."

"Because you're fuckin' Nik." I said. "Hap is marked because Bri, you because of Nik."

"We attack." He said. "Simple as that. We're going to need the Killer in on this, so someone call him and let him know what's going down."

"I will." Kozik said. "Heading that way anyways."

I knocked my fist against the table and nodded. This shit was bound to be explosive. I just hoped there wasn't going to be too many dead bodies on our part.

Yeah there will be a Christmas chapter soon.
