Yunho chewed on the inside of his cheek as he poked around the kitchen. He had woken up that morning with the overwhelming need to eat bacon. He opened the fridge door and glanced around.

"Yeosang!" He called out, not stepping away from the cool air. It felt so good that he closed his eyes and hummed.

"What?" The other beta shouted back as he walked down the hall holding a basket of clean clothes.

"Where's the bacon?" Yunho asked with a slight pout, peering around the door.

"It should be in there. I just bought some. Check the drawers."

Yunho bent over and rummaged through the drawers. He cheered when he found the new package of bacon and also pulled out the carton of eggs. "Want some?"

"Sure. You might as well fix it all, then that way anyone can come eat if they want to." The shorter said, not looking up from where he was folding a shirt. "I know Joongie will want some when he gets back from patrol."

"Have Seonghwa and Mingi come back yet?" Yunho stuck his tongue out as he struggled to open the package of bacon.

He heard Yeosang chuckle and suddenly he was there, taking the package from his hand. The shorter cut it open easily and grabbed a pan to put them in. "No. But I don't blame them. I think we all need some time with our mates after everything we've been through." Yeosang blushed at his own words, but Yunho couldn't agree more.

They both worked peacefully in the kitchen to prepare breakfast for everyone. Eventually San and Wooyoung wandered into the room, followed by Jongho who immediately went to wrap his arms around Yunho's waist.

The beta smiled and patted his alpha's hands before offering him a small chunk of bacon. Jongho hummed and rubbed his nose against Yunho's spine, sending a chill down it.

Hongjoong joined them sometime later and they enjoyed having breakfast together.

For the most part.

At one point, Yunho leaned over to Jongho and asked, "Do the eggs taste funny to you?"

"No. They taste fine." His alpha gave him a concerned look at leaned over to try his eggs. "Yours taste fine too."

Yunho hummed and pushed them around on his plate. His stomach churned at the thought of eating anymore so he decided to start clearing the table. That ended up being a mistake though. As soon as he started washing them, and the aroma of the eggs hit his nose, he dropped the plate and ran into the bathroom.

Jongho was there immediately, rubbing his back as his stomach emptied itself. "I guess this explains things..."

The beta just nodded and closed his eyes as another bought of nausea hit him. "It just... Came so suddenly..." He groaned, holding his stomach and leaning against the toilet.

A soft knock came from the door. "Yunho? Are you ok?" Wooyoung's voice was so soft as he poked his head in.

"Yeah Youngie... I'm ok..." He lifted his head and gave him a weak smile. Just as he was about to tell the other not to worry about him, he had to lean over the toilet again as he threw up once again. "I think..." He muttered.

He spent the rest of the morning trapped in the bathroom. Finally he had nothing left to purge so Jongho carried him into their bedroom and held him close.

Yunho hated this feeling. He felt hot and clammy. But Jongho's comforting touches helped to keep him calm. As hard as he tried, he couldn't think about what he at that would make him throw up like this, and none of them had been sick lately. He supposed someone could have brought it back from when they went into town, but then they should have shown symptoms too...

When Seonghwa and Mingi returned later that night, the omega came in to check on him. "Hey hun, how are you feeling?"

"Better." He mumbled, hugging a pillow close to him to try and replace the emptiness Jongho had left while he was on patrol.

"Do you feel like coming out to join us for dinner?"

Yunho's stomach grumbled in response and Seonghwa chuckled. "I'll take that as a yes. We will just start you off slow and see how you do, ok?"

"Ok." Yunho sat up and took a deep breath. Now that he thought about it, he really was feeling better. And he was hungry. So that had to be a good sign.

He managed to keep some toast, and then some stew down, so they all figured it must have just been a bug or something and they were able to relax and enjoy the rest of the evening.

The same thing happened to him the next day.

Seonghwa sat on the side of the bathtub and rubbed Yunho's head as he purged his stomach again. "Deep breath." He murmured as Yunho whined. "We probably had you eat too much. Tonight we will just stick to the toast and maybe a banana or something."

Yunho just nodded as he clutched his stomach.

He could feel Jongho's worry through their bond as he took a lap around their territory. Two days in a row wasn't something to raise too much concern yet, because Seonghwa could be right about his eating too much the night before.

But when it happened for the rest of the week, that's when the anxiety level in the house started to rise.

Wooyoung spent the entire day in the bathroom with Yunho, dabbing cold washcloths against his skin. Because the two of them were together, San and Jongho were always hovering around too. It was starting to make Yunho feel a little overwhelmed but he couldn't bring himself to say anything. He knew they all just wanted to make sure he was ok.

On the 10th day, Seonghwa came into the bathroom and sat on the side of the tub again. "I'm thinking about trying to find a doctor. I don't like that this has been going on for so long."

"Trust me... I don't either..." Yunho whimpered.

"I do have one question for you though..." Seonghwa bit his lip as he looked at the beta. Yunho lifted his head from the toilet and tilted it. "When was the last time you had sex?"

Yunho's eyes widened. "Wh-What? Isn't that a little personal?"

The omega gave him a soft smile. "How long?"

Sighing, Yunho bit his lips and did the math. "I don't know, maybe 6 weeks ago? It was when we were still in the settlement."

"Yeah, that sounds about right."

"What are you getting at?" Yunho forced out as he felt another wave of nausea coming on. He wanted this to stop...

"Did Jongho knot you?"

The question was so blunt and out of the blue, Yunho froze and felt his jaw drop. Sure they were a pack, but he had never really felt comfortable talking about his sex life with anyone except Wooyoung.

"It's not that hard, Yunho. Did Jongho knot you?"

"Yes! Would you just get to the point already?" Yunho felt himself getting angry.

"I don't think you're sick. I think you might be pregnant." Seonghwa said, not blinking or changing his facial expression as he said this.

Yunho wanted to laugh at the absurd statement, but the omega was so serious... "But... What? You..."

"Yes I got lucky and I never really had any morning sickness. From the parenting books I've gotten ahold of, it's different for every person. But you haven't shown any other signs of sickness. So I got you this." Seonghwa set down a pregnancy test on the counter. "I am trying to find a midwife for myself right now, and they can run an official test for you, but I think you should take it so we have an idea." The omega stood and squeezed his shoulder gently before leaving the bathroom.

Yunho stared at the box on the counter for a long time. It terrified him, and he didn't know why. Could he really be pregnant?

Even though his stomach was still upset, he stood slowly and took the box in his shaking hands. After taking the test, both of them, he leaned against the wall and picked at his lip.

Time seemed to stand still as he waited. Why was he freaking out so much? It was natural for a mated pair to have a pup. Or two. Or several. Plenty of wolves in Primera had multiple pups. So why was he so scared?

He jumped when someone knocked on the door. "Yunho?" It was Seonghwa. Sighing, he unlocked the door and let the other in.

Seonghwa paused and looked down at the tests. "Have you seen yet?"

Yunho shook his head, resuming picking at his lip.

"It's ok." Seonghwa said softly, handing him one of the tests.

There was a little plus sign in the window.

He covered his mouth and looked up at his friend as tears came to his eyes. So many emotions flew through his head as Seonghwa pulled him into a tight hug. When they broke apart he looked down and placed a hand on his stomach.

Pregnant. He was going to have Jongho's pup. His wolf practically leapt with joy at the thought and he suddenly found himself smiling.

Seonghwa nodded at him. "I think you should go see your alpha."

Yunho nodded quickly and left the bathroom. Jongho? Where are you? Can you come back to the house?

What's wrong?

Nothing. I just need you.

I'm coming.

Yunho waited on the back deck for his mate to arrive. It didn't take long for him to see Jongho running out of the trees, wearing only pants. The sunlight made his skin glow as it reflected off his perfect torso. Suddenly, in this moment, Jongho looked perfect in every way.

"What is it my love?" His alpha stopped in front of him and scanned his body. "How are you feeling? What can I get you? Do you-"

"Jongho, stop, I'm fine." Yunho smiled at him and cupped his cheek. "I... I figured out what is wrong with me."

His alpha visibly paled at those words and stepped closer to him.

"It's nothing bad, I promise." The beta took one of Jongho's hands. "Now it's not official yet, we still need to confirm it with an actual doctor, but..." He placed Jongho's hand on his stomach. "I think... I think I'm pregnant."

Jongho's eyes widened as he processed the information. "You... The settlement? I..."

Yunho smiled at how adorable Jongho was being right now and answered him by connecting their lips. As they embraced, his wolf gave him the answer he needed. He was going to have Jongho's pup. Jongho lifted him up, still kissing him, and spun them in a circle.

They finally broke apart and Jongho kissed Yunho's cheeks. "S-So you're ok with it?" Yunho asked, feeling his wolf stir at the contact.

"Of course I am! I know we didn't really plan on it... And the fact that you got pregnant from our first not is kind of... a miracle. But it must have been meant to be!" Jongho nuzzled his mating mark and Yunho felt weak at the knees.

"Should we go tell everyone else?" Yunho asked tilting his head so he could return the favor and place light kisses on Jongho's mark.

"Only if you want to."

The taller bit his lip and laced their fingers together. The two of them walked into the house, hand in hand and called for everyone to gather in the living room.

Their pack stared at them with confused faces, except for Seonghwa, who was smiling shyly as Mingi rubbed his back.

"What's going on?" Wooyoung asked, looking between the two of them. His forehead creased with concern. "Are you ok Yunho?"

"Yes, Youngie. I'm going to be fine." He smiled at his friend. "We actually figured out why I've been so sick lately, and it's something that could continue for the next seven months..."

"Oh!" Yeosang said, covering his mouth. His eyes creased as he smiled and bounced in his seat. Hongjoong took his other hand and beamed at them too.

Yunho glanced at Jongho. "Um, well. We are pregnant."

The room burst into cheers and he and Seonghwa hugged each other, celebrating that they will both be mothers together. It was a nice feeling, know that he wasn't going to have to go through this alone. All the thoughts flew through his mind that he was sure went through any parents' mind. Was he going to be a good mom? Could he and Jongho really raise a baby? What if something happened during the pregnancy? What if their baby didn't love him?

But one look at Jongho's sparkling eyes made those thoughts vanish completely. Deep down, he knew that their baby would be coming into the best situation possible. He or she would have eight loving people to help raise it, as well as an older 'sibling' to look up to.

As the group broke up, still showering him with words of praise and congratulations, he turned to his best friend, wanting to give him a hug.

Wooyoung was there in a heartbeat, wrapping his small arms around him and smiling brightly as they jumped up and down. Soon Jongho and San joined their little circle and the four of them shared in their bond they had formed so long ago.

With two babies on the way, things were about to change for the better, and their entire pack was so happy that things were starting to look up for them.
