the twins // jasmine & adam → August 20th, 2021 { future }
It seemed like it was just yesterday when the two of them found out they were going to be parents. That is a moment you just never forget. Jasmine had a good pregnancy, which is rare, especially since the two of them were expecting two babies, not just one. Adam wasn’t surprised that they were having twins, because twins were popular in the Lupus bloodline, but he was very excited. The two of them decided they wanted to keep the sexes a surprise because it was more fun that way, and so that they didn’t spend half of the pregnancy trying to agree on names.
Throughout majority of Jasmine’s pregnancy, the only trouble she encountered were her emotions going off the wall. The only thing worse than a pregnant hormonal woman, is a pregnant hormonal woman who also happens to be a werewolf. But Jasmine got through it with the support of Adam and his patience with her. Honestly she was glad she got to go through this journey with him.
On August 19th, 2021 at three o’clock in the evening; four weeks before her due date, Jasmine started to go into an early labor. They figured the twins would come early, but not a month early. They weren’t as prepared as they thought they were. Thankfully Beth had flown in a few days before to spend a few weeks with them as they prepared for the little ones’ arrival and for afterwards. So Beth was there to help every step of the way, and they couldn’t thank her enough for all that she did. She was going to be the babies’ godmother after all.
Jasmine and Adam knew it was best to have a home birth, because you don’t want a female werewolf to give birth in a hospital. Mostly because it might get a little crazy. So they had a midwife; Adam’s sister in law who was pretty good at delivering a couple of werewolf babies. Labor was long for Jasmine, hours and hours had gone by, and the twins still didn’t want to come. The pain was excruciating, and everyone who was there knew it. After twelve hours of labor and waiting for the right time, finally at four o’clock in the morning on August 20th, 2021, she was finally ready to push.
Within five minutes of painful pushing, Baby A finally made their way out. It was a healthy baby boy. Although they were so excited to see the first baby come out, there was still one more to come. After catching her breathe for a few seconds, Jasmine began to push a few minutes more. Nothing was coming after five minutes. Jasmine didn’t know how much longer she could go, especially since she was losing a lot of blood, which wasn’t good. She didn’t give up though. She couldn’t. She pushed harder and harder and then within the next five minutes, Baby B finally made it’s way out. It was a healthy baby girl. They were finally both here.
“They’re already have your stubbornness, Adam,” she softly joked with a smile as she held them both in her arms, “they didn’t want to come out.” Tears couldn’t help but fall from the female wolf’s eyes as she looked down at her babies, noticing the Sandalio crescent birthmark already showing on their shoulders. “No harm will ever come to you both,” she whispered, “your dad and I will always protect you. I promise with my life. We both do.”
“I like Caleb, it fits him, don’t you think?” she inquired as she watched Adam hold his son.
“Caleb Rian,” he replied back to her with a smile, “It fits him very well.”
Jasmine then looked down at her beautiful baby girl, who was already more perfect than perfection could possibly be,
“and Celene Rose. Our little princess.”
