The humans carried James's limp wolf form as carefully as they could, the heavily pregnant male struggled as he did but kept up his end. Until they made it to the car, his legs and arms were burning as well as his back which was tight with strain,"Hurry, hurry."He murmured, struggling to place the large wolf into the back of his small car,"Careful."He let him go gently, climbing in after him and holding him against his stomach again.

The doctor drives them back to the cabin, it taking longer than normal because of the freshly fallen snow. While they were driving Tobias attempted to ease the strain on his back, one hand continuing to run through James' fur.

[Lovebite]

Tobias let James rest against him while his hands found the bandage covering his wound, letting his fingers run over the perimeter of it. He closed his eyes and rested his head against the great wolf's, purring softly and nosing him, ignoring the tightness in his back. "You can't go."He murmured,"You can't leave me alone with that many pups."He smiled softly with tears in his eyes still,""Plus, you still have to meet the new litter... I can't have them without you."He shook his head, shutting his eyes and sighing.

[018Luxio]

Tobias just sits there for a while as they drive, he hadn't noticed when James' finally stirred, his ears twitching slightly. A few minutes later a low whimper slips past the wolf's lips.

[Lovebite]

Tobias blinked slightly and looked down at James as he was pulled from his thoughts, he had been trying not to focus on the pain now radiating from his back. The human looked down at the wolf in his arms and looked shocked to say the least that he was awake,"Shush... I know. I know."He murmured, stroking his fur and nuzzling him,"You're going to be okay."He said again softly against his ear, nibbling it gently.

[018Luxio]

James has no choice but to continue laying with his head in Tobias' lap for the remainder of the drive. When they finally reached the cabin however James attempted to get to his feet.

[Lovebite]

"No. James, don't walk."Tobias said to him quickly, becoming aware of the wolf's state of restlessness,"You lost a lot of blood, you aren't getting anywhere yourself."He pet his hand down the flank of the wolf gently,"We'll get you inside."He maneuvered himself from beneath the large animal, then stepped out as he opened up the door and looking at the woman who had driven them,"You grab his front this time."He was pressing a hand into his back and his belly was low, pants too thick and covered in snow for anyone to notice that his water had broken on the way here.

[018Luxio]

She nods as they manage to get James picked up once again before manuvering into the cabin. Once inside they lay James down on the bed before the doctor checks over the wound yet again to make sure it's still closed before turning to Tobias. "From what I can tell, it looks to be a stab would, from a serrated blade."

[Lovebite]

It was a even greater struggle getting James up further into their bedroom, but they had done it and now Tobias sat on the edge of the bed looking at his partner. Then up up at the woman when she spoke, he frowned as he rubbed a hand over his tight belly,"A hunter did this?"He was confused, looking towards James again, then the window as he pushed himself up to his feet again,"I can't believe that someone's figured us out... It's just not possible, we were so careful."He pressed his lips together thinly.

[018Luxio]

"Though not careful enough." She looks Tobias over for a moment or two before glancing back at James. He had fallen asleep again, or either gone unconscious, they weren't completely sure.

[Lovebite]

"How could you say that?"He looked back at her,"You don't know how hard we've tried to keep all this together."He looked towards the door of the bedroom to make sure none of the children had awakened to see what was going on. The human looked outside of the window once more then back at the woman,"Stay with him, please."He told her and then left the room to go make sure every window and door was secured before coming back to take his revolver out of the safe in the bedroom closet.

[018Luxio]

She had taken a seat on the bed beside James, softly running her fingers through his fur as she waited for Tobias to return. When she saw him take the gun from the safe she turns her attention to the window as well.

[Lovebite]

Tobias stood at the window after checking up on the pups, he was silent and thought deeply on what they would do, he hoped completely that this was some mistake. That the hunter didn't know about their family, he hadn't realized that he was soon to be inviting even more children into their family. As he leant against the windowsill, one hand cradling his distended belly and the other braced against the windowsill beside the gun. His face was twisted up in pain and he couldn't help from letting out a low groan.

[018Luxio]

The doctor turns her attention back to him. "How long?" She doesn't move from the bed, continuing to run her fingers through James' fur.

[Lovebite]

The human looked surprised after the contraction while he looked down to his middle with his hand rubbing against it,"I-I didn't even know."He replied, moving the gun onto the dresser and finally taking off his jacket and then his boots,"Must've been the adrenaline."He said with a shake of his head,"God, all of my kids have wonderful fucking timing."He complained lightly, moving towards the bathroom in a akward waddle to grab some towels.

[018Luxio]

Tobias works through the labor for the next few hours, eventually finding himself standing over a few towels that he had laid on the floor, his hands resting on his knees as he squatted slightly, breathing through the contractions as best he could without making too much noise.

[Lovebite]

They had been waiting for this for two whole weeks, he thought he would be more prepared as he squated in the frame of the bathroom doorway with his hands on his knees. He groaned in discomfort as his hole bulges with the girth of the child, tilting his head back while the woman held him up. "There you go. They don't seem to be waiting."She mentioned jokingly, he frowned and shifted his legs wider as he gripped onto the door,"Yeah, well, let them come... They've been a pain in my ass for weeks now."He curled forwards and beared down again, hissing as the head breached him finally, crowning slowly,"Fuck."He breathed heavily, gritting his teeth.

[018Luxio]

Tobias was left panting when the contraction ended. He stood there with his eyes closed for a few minutes as he caught his breath. He hadn't noticed James watching him from where he laid on the bed.

[Lovebite]

He didn't think James was even awake to see the birth of this litter as he struggled with the first pup, grasping onto the door and shuddering. His legs trembling while he supported his full weight on both legs, whimpering softly as his hole burned with the stretch of the pups head. Until it slipped out of him and quickly followed after by the shoulders and the rest of it's body.

[018Luxio]

James continues to watch, the next pup quickly following its sibling. The second one seemed easier than the first, it sliding out with barely any help from Tobias. The doctor took them both and began to clean them up, washing the fluid from their fur before wrapping them up to keep them warm.

While she was tending to the pups and Tobias was catching his breath James moves from the bed carefully before padding his way over to Tobias, pressing his nose to the males stomach for a second or two. Tobias knew that wasn't the end, he was certain of it, but neither of them knew that the third would be way more challenging.
