Chapter 66: Finally comes out

Talia "It hurts!" I yelled as I clutched my belly. "Do something!" I screamed in Magda's face. "This is how it is, Talia," she said. "You just have to hold on, dear. You're not even close to being fully dilated," Velma said as she peeked out from between my legs. "Keep everybody outside," Magda screamed when Cressida tried to enter my room. "You're not going to keep me away," Cressida said, elbowing her way beside Magda. "She's a member of this pack, and I will be here as she delivers." "It is against our custom," Magda said, standing very stiffly in front of her. "It's against our customs within the birthing room." Cressida simply brushed past her. "The only custom she is subjected to is Blackthorn's, and we do not believe in such. Besides, she's practically family." "My chest," Cressida went on. "Lyra is on her way. Baron is on his way as well." Velma instantly screamed, "No!" She continued, "We cannot allow him in here." "Why?" Cressida asked, the anger evident on her face.
