time. “Very dramatic, Mother. You could have given my husbands longer than a quarter of a second to respond you know. There wasn’t any reason to…well, do what you did.” Kit knew her mother and grandmother both understood. As genetically linked witches they could easily read each other’s magic. But all three men in the room were wolf shifters so they hadn’t known her mother had actually assessed both children and known in an instant not only the gender but that both Ryan and Adana held tremendous magical potential. They were both shifters as well, and as twins their magic would be magnified and enhanced by each other. Her granny had done the same assessment already weeks ago, and told Kit most of what her mother had just found out. She hadn’t wanted to know the genders and Ruby had respected that. Now Kit had to hold back her gloating smile because it was obvious Granny Good Witch had cut her daughter out of the loop.
When Kit looked between Jameson and Trev her heart melted as their gorgeous smiles lit their expressions and reflected the happiness that she could practically see coming off them in waves. She knew that she would never tire of looking at her mates, and watching as they cradled the babies in their arms had been the sexiest thing she’d ever seen. Both men were six and a half feet tall and their broad shoulders a testament to their strength, so seeing them hold babies that had weighed in at just over six pounds was an incredible sight.
‘Are you alright, baby?’ Trev’s voice sounded in Kit’s mind and she blinked several times before she realized that she had been staring blankly at him. No doubt the residual effects of the drugs she’d been given were still clouding her mind. And even though she was still having trouble fully processing everything that had happened, she nodded. “Yes, I’m sorry I was staring. It just humbles me to see you and Jameson holding our children. And to see how peaceful they are in your arms. I’m going to remember this in the middle of the night too you know.”
After maneuvering a huge vase of flowers onto the wide windowsill, Kit’s dad stepped forward and hugged her. “They are unquestionably the most perfect grandchildren in history, sweetheart.” He kissed Kit on the forehead and then added conspiratorially, “And I’m awfully anxious to get my turn to hold them both, but that probably isn’t going to come any too soon. One of the hazards of hanging out with two women who can zap you with lightning with just a flick of their wrist.” He laughed and they watched as her mother and grandmother both commandeered a baby.
Kit giggled when her granny’s clothes all turned pink as she held A dana. Even her usual red sequined high tops were now hot pink and sparkling like they were made of diamonds. When the elderly woman noticed her looking, she danced a quick jig as she moved toward the head of the bed. She turned to Richard and handed off the baby before grasping Kit’s hand. “Kit, I’m sorry we weren’t here. I heard what happened and even though we’d heard rumblings…none of us realized things had gone this far. You and I will talk more in a bit because you are about to have a whole lot of company.” Ruby’s eyes sparkled, and immediately the door burst open and Kit’s room was literally filled with people in a matter of seconds.

Four Months Later …
Dr. Angie Michaels leaned against the doorframe of the operating room she was leaving and grasped it with both hands, holding on to the metal frame as if it were a lifeline. She tried to catch her breath as the room suddenly seemed to be spinning around her and her eyes weren’t cooperating either, having trouble trying to focus on her surroundings. She knew she had been on her feet far longer today than she was ordinarily, but it wasn’t anything she hadn’t done hundreds of times
