One month later

"Congratulations!" Everyone congratulates is as we walk through the back yard. Oliver's hand lays on my waist as we walk through.

The whole pack turned up for the celebration. Everyone wearing either pink or blue based on what they thought I'm having. It's all truly so great.

"Zaria!" Bethany shouts my name and waves me over.

"Oh Bethany! I can't thank you enough for making all of this possible!" I hug her.

"No need. I know you'd do the same for me," I pull back and look at her outfit. No color. I look back at Kyle that's sipping whatever the blue punch is.

"Kyles wearing blue does that mean it's a boy?" I question she shakes her head.

"She wouldn't even tell me. I have no clue," Kyle shook his head at his mate.

"You were supposed to wear pink," Oliver playfully scolds his friend.

"It's a boy sorry dude," Oliver shook his head at Kyles words.

"Ok ok everyone calm down. Zaria sorry I'm not dressed up, but I'm going to be running around and I can't do that in heels," I shrug.

"It's fine I totally understand."

"Ok great. I have to go make sure these numb sculls did everything right. Be back in a bit," She jogged off back inside.

"Zaria honey!" I turn around.

"Aunt Dorothy!" I smile and walk towards her to give her a hug.

"I missed you doll," she pulled away to look at me, "look how big you've gotten!"

"I'm three and a half months already!" She puts her hand on my stomach.

"I'm so happy for you dear," I smile.

"Thank you, aunty."

"Oh John!" She falls to a guy behind me. I turn around, "Zaria. This is John. John this is my niece  Zaria."

I smile up at the man taking his hand in mine, "it's a pleasure to you, John."

"I could say the pleasure is all mine. Congratulations by the way."

"Thank you," I turn back to aunt Dorothy, "did Vanessa come?"

She looked at me, "turn around hun," I turned around and standing behind me is my sister.

My mouth fell open at the sight of her, "hey sis," she walks closer and gives me a hug.

"Vanessa your hair," she nods her head.

"Do you like it?" I nod my head.

"I love it!"

"Thank. Thought I needed a change! How are you," her eyes fall down to my stomach.

"I'm great how are you?"

"I'm good," she smiles and puts her hand on my stomach, "har far along are you?"

"About three and half months."

"Your quote ready to pop," she laughs.

"Not yet," I nod my head.

Music started playing. Bethany must've finally got the system to work. American Teen played through the speakers.

"Zaria Bethany wants you," Kyle comes over and points to where Bethany is. She's at the front of the stage Oliver standing next to her.

I nod my head and make my way up through the crowd of people. I get on stage and take my spot next to Oliver.

"Ladies and gentlemen can I have your attention? Thank you. Today we gather here to reveal the gender of the first pup born into the alphas family," music plays quietly behind her, "you guys don't know how excited I was to plan this whole thing. Shoot I was excited to know something that Zaria doesn't," the crowed snickered and I rolled my eyes, "I'm also so proud of my best friend! She's going to be great mother a great Luna," tears pricked at her eyes and her voice broke, "ok ok before the water works start, everyone line up to grab a plate. After everyone is done we'll cut the cake."

Oliver and I made our way to the front of the food line and grabbed ourselves a plate. Well Oliver grabbed us a plate. I stood there for a few seconds chatting away with a mom that's serving food. Oliver has to pull me away saying I was holding up the line.

Kyle, Bethany, Oliver, and I all sat at a table.

"Bethany your actually sitting?" Kyle gasped.

"I'm starving so of course I'm sitting," she rolled her eyes and I laughed.

"Is the gender reveal the cake?" I asked.

She shrugged, "we'll see after everyone is finished eating," I shook my head at my best Friend.

"It's a girl. We didn't even need to have a reveal," Oliver spoke confidently.

I shook my head, "shut up it's a boy."

Everyone finished eating at last. It took just about an hour, but it was finally time to cut the cake.

Everyone gather in front of us, "is everyone ready?" Bethany asked the crowd. Everyone shouted a yes.

Oliver and I gripped the knife tighter. I smiled up at him, "even if its a boy just know he will be loved."

I shook my head, "no matter what it is I'm going to love it unconditionally."

We both looked at the cake and pressed down, "I see the blue!" My aunt said.

I laughed and shook my head. We cut the other side and took the price and put it on a plate, "it's whit?" I spoke.

Everyone looked at Bethany, "who ever said the cake would reveal the gender? Cake just makes a party."

"Bethany, I'm going to kill you!" I laughed as she shook her shoulders. Everyone laughed along with me.

"The real reveal will happen after cake. I promise. Now move I'll cut everyone a piece. Kyle there two more cakes in the kitchen can you pull them out?"

Oliver and I grabbed our pieces and went to sit down, "that friend of your gave a heart attack. I thought it was boy for a whole few seconds," I slapped his shoulder and laughed.

"I just hope everyone will hurry up and eat their cake I'm anxious," I rub my stomach.

"Me to," Oliver kisses my cheek while I lean up against him.

Another hour goes by. Two hours and I still don't know the gender! I'm to impatient to wait.

"I told them to wait out front!" Bethany shouts. I stand up and look to where she is.

"Sorry, we didn't know," she runs her temples.

"Whatever just bring it back," Oliver and I make our way to her and Kyles side.

"What's going on?" I ask.

"What's going on is nobody knows how to follow instructions!" She throws her hands up in the air as two guys roll a motorcycle into the yard.

"Bethany what's that?" She holds up a finger and runs to the other side of the yard where the stage is leaving me baffled.

"Follow the bike," Kyle instructs me. I nod my head and follow the bike that's rolled out into an empty patch of the yard.

"Ladies and gentlemen, can I have your attention once again?" Bethany's face is flushed red and splotchy from anger and frustration, "the real gender reveal is here. To do a gender reveal as lame as a cake is depressing, so I talked with Kyle. No Kyle does not know the gender, but he knows his best friend. Kyle told me how Oliver use to have a motorcycle when he was younger. I asked him whatever happened to it and he told me it's the garage. It was literally in the garage," everyone laughs and I look up at Oliver, "so I thought what better way to announce the gender of the baby the to bring out a good blast from the past. I got the bike out of the garage has it fixed up and here we are to day!"

"Get to the point!" I shout at her and she laughs along with everyone else.

"I'll get to the point when you get on the bike," I look at the death trap and shake my head. She makes her way through the crowd and to us. Oliver threw his leg over the bike with a big grin.

"Come on babe. I won't let it fall," I wearily day on the bike with both legs on one side.

Bethany the handed me a stick, "on the count of three Oliver will rev the engine and Zaria will twist the bottom of the cannon. Dust will come out of the motor thing down there and also confetti will

Come out of cannon. Ready?" I nod my head.

"One."

My heart pounded.

"Two."

Everyone changed in unison.

"Three."

Everyone went crazy. I hopped off the bike and jumped in happiness. Bethany, Vanessa, and aunt Dorothy attacked me in a hug.

"Zollverein is having a girl!" Smile as someone in the crowed shouts. It's not my boy, but it's my girl.

Oliver got off his bike and picked me up, "I told you it's a girl," He twirled me around.

"Ok ok. I know everyone is excited and wants to celebrate with Luna and alpha, but I have one more surprise for you two," Oliver puts me down.

"What more could you do?" Bethany smiles at me.

"Come with me," Oliver and I follow Bethany inside, "you have your rooms in the pack house, so I thought the baby might as well."

We follow Bethany up the stairs and to our floor. We stop at the door next to our room as she draws out a key and pushes open the door. I gasp.

"Bethany it's beautiful!" I walk inside and brush my hand against the crib, "what's this?" I ask picking up a box inside the crib.

"Open it," Oliver reaches down and grabs the box. Kyle decides to take this time and walk in.

I take the box from Oliver. It's wrapped in paper bag wrapping paper with a burlap bow. Shaking my head I undo the bow and rip the paper. The paper reveals a white box. Scrunching up my eyebrows I open the box.

Inside are four pregnancy test wrapped in pink and blue Tull. Underneath the tests are a sonogram squares. I pull them out and look at Bethany.

"Who's are these?" She shrugs with a hug she smile on her face. I look at Kyle who stairs down at his mate.

"Are you?" She nods her head.
