It watched her every breath, each shudder of pain. Those that came after Anann and Alaine took his attention away from his mate, but only for a moment. He looked up to see Haven and Princess, giving them a small smile or thanks for their presence. Then the same to their King. The healers words grabbed his attention instantly though, drawing his eyes back to her face and taking in the instructions. He nodded his head, poorly cut mane waving into his eyes. Heath held her shoulder softly, and made his way behind her. His lean form fit tightly between she and the couch, and his hands moved to her back. Fingers eased into the tight muscles gently at first, but then worked with a greater pressure to untangle the knots that had developed with the contractions.
His amber eyes moved from the lady that knelt before his beloved’s swollen belly back to her face, and then leaned his own against it. His body cradled her smaller form, braced and ready for the journey ahead. He closed his eyes, feeling the heat of tears in their corners, Almost there. He spoke, a mere whisper against the heavy breathing and the words that were spoken among the room. Though he was certain that she would hear.
