{Alpha Tyler}
I paced back and forth in the waiting room at the hospital waiting for Trinity's checkup to be over with. Finally, the doctor came out of her office with a huge smile on her face.
That didn't keep my anxiety down. "Well, what is it?"
"I give you guys an early congrats with your triplets!" The Doctor cheered, "And everything is fine however, I would like to have a word with you in private Alpha Tyler."
I nodded and followed the doctor to her office. She motioned for me to sit down and closed the door. When sat across from me at her desk she couldn't stop smiling. "Like I said, don't worry about the children, they're fine although I do want to ask you something."
I raised an eyebrow. "Yes? What is it?"
"Exactly how times have you had sex with your wife lately?" The Doctor asked.
I choked. "It had to have been more than ten. I don't know, I lost count. Why?"
"Well that's a good thing!" The Doctor said, "A couple of things could happen."
"Like?" I said.
"It could get her to go into labor," the Doctor answered. "And it could possibly add more babies into the womb. I hope the former happens more than the latter."
My eyes went wide. "What? You mean to tell me that by having sex with my wife when she's pregnant that I can get her pregnant again?"
The Doctor nodded. "I've seen it happen before, but don't worry it's a rare thing. So more than likely it'll just help her induce labor because she is past her due date. I understand she has a couple of important things to do before she gives birth. But I'm more concerned that she's past her due date. At the same time everything looks fine on the ultrasound. I wanted to let you know what could happen. But…"
"But what?" I asked.
"I was thinking maybe adding more babies into Luna Trinity's womb would slow her down finally?" The Doctor suggested, "From what I know of she's been extremely active for a pregnant woman and I don't think that's healthy for her. Is there any way you can get her to slow down for a change?"
"Well she won't listen to me unless I use my Alpha Command on her," I said. "But I don't want to have to keep using it just to get her to settle down. Hmmm…" I thought about it. "When my mom visits she'll insist that Trinity rest for the day. Although my mom can't be around the pack all the time. So I could ask a couple of the other women to help out."
"That might be a good idea or maybe you could get her to sleep more?" The Doctor said, "The more rest she gets the better."
I sighed, "I'll work on it. I'll think about it more and figure it out. Thanks doctor."
The Doctor smiled. "No problem, if you guys need anything at all don't be afraid to contact me."
She stood up and we shook hands and after that I left.

I got Trinity and we headed home. Thankfully I made the car so that the driver could put up a privacy shield in case I needed to Talk to Trinity without him overhearing. I asked the driver to put up the privacy shield and after he did I was getting ready to say something when Jacob thought, Hey Trinity, how are the stomach ulcers doing?
I rolled my eyes when I saw Trinity cover her mouth to try and stifle a laugh but she wasn't very good at it. "That's not funny! This joke is getting old."
"Actually it's not getting old. Okay maybe a year later when something else happens then I can see it being old news. But for now, it's comedy gold!" Trinity laughed.
I cleared my throat, "Anyway, I was talking to the doctor and she said you're past your due date. You're way too active for a pregnant woman and you need to sleep more to help the babies develop better."
Trinity stopped laughing and looked away. "Oh."
I sighed, "I know that look when I see it Trinity. Look I know you don't like having to sit still for a while but it's necessary for the good of the babies and you. I can ask Lauren and Mom to look after you. You know how Mom is when she visits."
She didn't say anything and I knew she wasn't talking because she didn't want to slow down anytime soon. She still feels like she's and needs to get stronger so she's been pushing it on her training.
I continued, "And you know how I don't like using my Alpha Command on you. I'm not going to do that because I have things that I need to deal with too. There's been attacks on the borders of the IronClad Coven. Thankfully, no one was killed but there were some of my warriors who were injured."
Her eyes widened. "What! Why that little-" She stopped herself and took a deep breath and let it out. "I can't believe that my Mom's already making her move. I wonder if she knows that I'm pregnant yet? I hope not because she won't be a grandmother for very long once I disband the coven!"
"What do you mean by that?" I asked.
"In order to disband or break up a coven a couple of things need to happen first," Trinity explained. "The first thing that has to happen is that temple where the witches of the coven worship needs to be destroyed. When the temple is destroyed the god who governs it either loses their place as ruler over the coven or the god dies. The second thing that needs to happen is the coven leader needs to die in front of the rest of the coven members. Once those two things have happened the coven gets disbanded and the witches become Solitary Witches and Solitary Witches are respected more than rogue werewolves."
I tilted my head. "Huh? What do you mean by that?"
"A Solitary Witch isn't bound to a coven and their rules," Trinity said. "They can make up their own rules and play by their own game so to speak. So when someone comes across a Solitary Witch they're respected more because that type of witch isn't bound to a coven so they practice whatever magic they want to.
"Mom is the High Priestesses to the IronClad Coven. That's why she was able to send us death threats and stuff like that. If she weren't a leader of the coven she would've been overstepping her boundaries and executed anyway."
"Huh, interesting," I said. "So anyway, you really need to start slowing down. I would say it but I don't want to set you off again. What if we come to a compromise?"
Trinity raised an eyebrow. "A compromise? Like what?"
"You work on slowing down and getting some rest and I won't use my Alpha Command on you until after you give birth to the babies. Deal?" I said.

She nodded and shook my hand. "Deal!"
Well that was easy, I thought.
When we arrived home I immediately led Trinity upstairs to our room. Her stomach growled. "I'm hungry!"
"What would you like to eat?" I said.
"For some strange and odd reason, I want cake," Trinity responded.
I chuckled, "Alright maybe the babies just like surgery foods?"
She shrugged. "I don't know but all I know is I want cake!"
"Okay then. I'll go get it, you stay here and rest," I said.
I kissed her and headed out the door. As I went downstairs to go order the cook to make a cake for Trinity I ran into Theo.
"Alpha, there's been another attack at the IronClad Coven's borders," Theo said. "What are we going to do about this?"
I shook my head. "Right now I don't know. But at the moment, I'm going to order the cook to make something for Trinity, and do you know where Mom is?"
"She's in your office waiting for you," Theo said.
I paused. "Huh? Why would she be in my office? Normally she's in the living room or some other place in the pack house."
He shrugged. "I don't know. But she did say that she had something very important to talk to you about. What do you want the cook to make for Trinity?"
"Apparently, Trinity's in the mood for cake," I said.
"Any specific kind?" Theo asked.
"Last time I saw her eat cake it was Red Velvet so let's go with that," I said. "I'll head over to the office and see what mom wants. Ask the cook to order from a bakery instead of cooking from scratch."
Theo nodded. "Sure thing!"
With that, I went over to my office to talk to Mom.

As soon as I got to my office, Mom stood up to greet me. "Hey Mom, what's going on?"
Mom sat back down and I sat at my desk across from her. She sighed, "I think it's time we do something about my daughter in-law! The woman refuses to rest and she's training almost 24/7 and don't get me started on the mood swings."
I chuckled, "Yeah that's Trinity for you! However, I did make a deal with her."
"Oh? What was it?"
"If she can calm herself down, I won't use the Alpha Command on her until after the babies are born."
Mom shook her head. "Bad idea Tyler! Bad idea!"
I tilted my head. "Why?"
"Do you know how hard it is for someone who's pregnant to control their emotions?" Mom said, "Are you crazy?"
I blinked. I didn't think it was that big of a deal to not use my Alpha Command on Trinity because taking care of her while she's pregnant is a job all on its own. "I can't use my Alpha Command on her all the time, trust me taking care of Trinity is a job on its own!"
Mom sighed, "Okay fine. So what do you propose we do about her?"
I thought about it. "Hmmm, maybe you and Lauren can tag team her? And I'll tell Theo to ban her from training. Right now a lot of her mood swings come from her dealing with being attacked like she was two months ago. She feels she's weak and she needs to be stronger. Thankfully, she got pregnant before the attack happened."
"Wait, what?" Mom said. She looked stunned. "Trinity feels she's weak? She has to know that she isn't right? She's far from being weak!"
"Yeah I know," I said. "Just don't tell her that or it'll set off a mood swing and she'll go into ninja mode."
Mom nodded. "Alright I'll keep my opinions about that to myself so I don't set her off. Do you have any other ideas to help deal with her?"
I shook my head. "Not right at the moment."
She sighed, "Alright then. I shall take my leave now. I'm going to see what I can do with Trinity."
"By the way," I said. "I just told Theo to make sure the cook orders a cake for Trinity. Apparently, that's what she wants to eat. It doesn't surprise me because when we were at the castle she ate half of a six layer all by herself!"
Her jaw dropped. "Seriously?" She shook her head in dismay. "Well I guess that makes sense because she is eating for four now."
I laughed, "Yeah no kidding!"
Mom got up and left the office after that. After she left I got to work in figuring out what to do about the attacks on the IronClad Coven's borders.

{Trinity}
So you're talking to me again? Danger asked.
Yes and I'm sorry for cutting off the mindlink. I was angry. I thought.
I was so worried about you! Don't do that again you lady! Danger scolded.
I chuckled. I won't do it again. So how are Chad and the others?
They're worried because you cut off the mindlink and none of us could get into contact with you! Danger thought.
I was sitting on my bed watching Tv and the noise from the Tv was pretty much background noise and this point. I had finally put the mindlink back up because I figured it was time to talk to Danger and the others again.
Yeah I understand you were angry but that's no reason to take it out on us! Chad growled.
Yeah, um… What he said! Charlotte thought.
I chuckled at that statement.
"What's so funny?" I heard Mrs. Amoria say.
"Oh I was just mindlinking to my spirit beings," I explained. "Since I'm a hybrid I have three spirit beings who also share a body with me. There's my wolf who's name is Danger, my Shadow who just revealed her name to me Charlotte and there's my Gate Wielder Being who for whatever the reason is a guy and not a girl like the rest of us are and his name is Chad."
Mrs. Amoria raised an eyebrow. "You have a Gate Wielder Being? And it's a guy? Wait, you're a Gate Wielder?"
I nodded. "Yup, I'm part Gate Wielder, part Witch and part Werewolf. I know I was kind of surprised when I found out that those doors that randomly popped up were actually gates. Apparently, every Gate Wielder's gates look different. My gates look like doors and there was another Gate Wieder who I trained while I was at the castle, his gate looked like a portal. My gate is a door. My Grandfather's gate is a door too."
Mrs. Amoria whistled. "You have some very strong genes as far as power in your family goes!"
"Ah…" I said. Before I could say anything else Theo appeared in the doorway with a huge six layer cake! My stomach growled and my mouth was watering over the cake.
Theo chuckled, "Yeah Tyler told me that when you were at the castle you ate half of a six layer cake! So you'll probably have no trouble eating this on your own."
I took the cake from him and within fifteen minutes I ate the whole cake! I burped after I finished devouring the last bite of cake. "Oops, excuse me, my compliments to the chef!"
I gave Theo and Mrs. Amoria an amused look when I saw their jaws dropped. "What? I was hungry!"
"You can say that again," Theo said after picking his jaw off the floor.
"Okay now that you're done eating, is there any chance that I could get you to rest?" Mrs. Amoria said.
I sighed, "I'll try. I know I made a deal with Tyler about that and I'll try my best to do it."
"Okay that's good," said Mrs. Amoria. "You really need to rest. Doing too much training can't be good for the babies can it?"
"Speaking of training, Tyler made sure to tell me to tell you that you're banned from training until you give birth to the babies," Theo said.
I paused. "Seriously? Okay fine I won't do any training! The less Tyler has to use his Alpha Command on me the better."
Theo chuckled. "Would you like anything else Luna Trinity?"
I groaned, "Okay please don't call me Luna, we were friends before I became Luna for this pack. Just call me Trinity."
He smiled. "Alright. Do you need anything else?"
I shook my head. "No, I'm good."
He nodded and turned around and left. Once he left Mrs. Amoria turned to me and said, "You really should rest."
I sighed, "Fine I'll try. I'm not making any promises but I'll try."
Mrs. Amoria got up from the bed and grabbed several pillows and placed them behind me. "Come on, lay back on these pillows. Usually when I can't rest I'm cuddled up in a whole bunch of pillows and that seems to do the trick. At least for me it does."
"Really? What do you do when your husband's sharing the bed with you?"
"When that happens I just cuddle up to him instead," Mrs. Amoria chuckled. "But your husband isn't here right now so pillows should do the trick."
I nodded and Mrs. Amoria helped me get settled in by snuggling with the pillows and eventually I drifted off to sleep.
