#Capítulo 290 – Contracciones
ella
Lentamente , respiro a través de mis contracciones , respirando profundamente por la nariz y expulsándolas por la boca . _ _ El dolor es … bueno , supongo que no puedo decir nada que haya sentido antes , ¿ verdad ? No después de todo lo que he pasado enlos últimos cinco meses . Pero es increíble , la forma en que irradia a través de mi cuerpo, haciéndome apretar los dientes contra él .
Puedo sentir mi cuerpo moviéndose , cambiando junto con las contracciones . _ El dolor en mi pelvis , en particular , es una locura , ya que los huesos se mueven para dejar espacio para que pase el bebé . Mis ojos se abren como un relámpago durante una contracción particularmente difícil yMe oigo gritar contra el dolor . _ _ Dios , habría pensado que ser un lobo lo hacía más fácil : los lobos parecen tener toda una camada de cachorros sin muchos problemas , solos en el bosque . _ _
De pasada , considero cambiar a mi forma de lobo para aliviar esto .

Pero luego , de repente , Sinclair irrumpe en mi habitación , corriendo hacia mí .
” ¿Qué ? ” , jadea , casi resbalando hacia un lado , mirándome por todas partes en busca de lo que está mal . ” ¿ Qué pasa , Ella- te escuché gritar- ” _ _ _
” No ” , digo , jadeando un poco cuando la contracción comienza a llegar a su fin . _ ” No , es solo la contracción – Dios , Dominic , estos apestan – ”
Sacude la cabeza , todavía en pánico , tratando de poner todo junto mientras se arrodilla al lado de la cama y toma mi mano . _ ” Viene Cora , está cerca ” , murmura . _ _ ” Se le permitirá entrar ” .
” ¿ Y Hank ? ” Pregunto , mirando a mi pareja . “¿ Y Rogelio ? ”
“¿ Roger ? “, pregunta Sinclair , confundido .
“¡ Sí , Dominic ! ¡ Roger ! ¡ Lo quiero aquí también ! ”
“¿ Por qué ? ” Los ojos de Sinclair están muy abiertos con asombro ahora .
” ¡ Porque ! ” Golpeé su hombro , frunciéndole el ceño . “¡ Es el tío del niño ! ¡ Y su padrino ! ¡ Debería estar aquí ! ¡ No puedo creer que no lo hayas llamado ! ”
” Ella ” , suspira Sinclair , alcanzando el teléfono celular en su bolsillo trasero mientras me recuesto en las almohadas , tomando respiraciones profundas . _ ” No puedo creer que estés pensando en el decoro mientras das a luz con insurgentes afuera

“This is going to be as perfect as I can make it for Rafe!” I snap, determined. “And if I have to give birth in a war zone with no epidural, then Roger can damn well get out of bed and come over here to greet his nephew!”
“Oookay…” Sinclair says softly, giving in without any further questions. I hear him tapping on his phone and then he shifts. I watch him stand, leaning over me. Frowning, he leans over and
grabs one of the pillows from the other side of the bed, quickly taking the pillowcase between his two hands and ripping off a long strip,

“You know you don’t need to do the linens thing and boil water that’s just in the movies. I’m sure Cora will bring something else to sterilize any instruments she brings-”
“It’s not for that,” he murmurs, leaning down and wiping the sweat from my brow with the little square of pillowcase folded in his hand. “How are you, love? How do you feel?”
I relax back as much as I can against the pillows, the next contraction not starting yet. “I feel… determined,” I say, gazing up at him. “Rafe is ready. He told me so. We’re both ready.”
“That’s my girl,” Sinclair says softly, taking my chin between the fingers of his big hand and gazing at me. “So strong.”
–
I nod at him, willing myself to believe it too – that I’m strong even though I’m scared and in pain. I am strong. For him, and for Rafe, and yes – for myself – I can be strong.
–
“Ooooh,” I say, pressing my eyes shut again, my hands moving low on my stomach. “Here comes another one.‘ >>
Sinclair gets on his knees by my side again, steady and tense. Then, as I start to breathe in that special way Cora made me practice, he breathes along with me. He’s there with me, every step.
Time passes quickly this way, with long stretches of pain followed up by a few minutes of respite. Unfortunately, those minutes are coming closer and closer together. I’m moving through this birth process fast, and I don’t have any control over it. If I could wait, just hold him in while we wait for Cora to get here…
But no, it seems like Rafe and my body have other plans.
Sinclair talks softly to me throughout the process, helping me get ready in the moments between contractions. He helps me change into a cotton nightgown instead of the travel clothes I was wearing on the way here. He brings me two cool cups of water, one for drinking, the other for dipping more strips of pillowcase in to lay across my hot forehead. Throughout it all, my mate is all attention and support.
But beneath that, I can see on his face the worry and guilt that he’s done something horrible in not getting me to the hospital. I hold his gaze steadily whenever I can, letting him know, silently, that we’re all going to be all right. We’re going to make it.
I don’t know how much time has passed when the door bursts open. Cora flies into the room, panting, a medical bag slung over her shoulder. I almost spill the glass of tap water Sinclair just handed me all over myself as I give a little shriek of surprise when she bursts in.
“Ella,” she gasps, dashing over to me, almost bowling Sinclair over in her singular focus to be at my side, to look me over and assess my condition.
“Steady,” Sinclair murmurs, a little frustrated, as he puts out a hand to balance himself so that he doesn’t go sprawling on the floor. Cora ignores him.

“Ella, love,” she murmurs, her eyes sweeping over me. “Tell me what’s going on
I need to know.” She puts a hand on my stomach, feeling for the baby. “He’s low…” she murmurs as I fill her in on the timing of my contractions – three minutes apart now – and the aches and pains.

“Everything sounds normal, Ella,” she says calmly, looking at me in the eye so that I can see her faith. I hear Sinclair give a great sigh of relief, but I keep my eyes on my sister. She breaks my gaze, though, and starts peeling back the sheets. “I need to take a look. Can you lay back all the way?”
I do as she says, clearing the pillows so that I can lay flat on the bed and allowing my sister to examine me. As she does, I look up at Sinclair, who takes my hand.
“Well,” Cora says quietly after a few minutes. “I don’t have all of the tools I would like to make a full assessment, but,” she sits up and looks me in the eyes, giving me a big grin. “Ella, you’ve moved through this remarkably fast. From what I see, you’re ten inches dilated and ready to start pushing.”
Her grin broadens. “Are you ready to have this baby, sis?” Cora asks, reaching forward to take my other hand.
“Really?” I gasp, my eyes going wide. I look between my sister and my mate. “No way – it’s
too soon
“It’s time,” she says, “believe it or not, but it’s time.”
“But,” I struggle to sit up and Sinclair offers a helping hand. “Hank isn’t here yet – neither is Roger

“Roger,” Cora snaps, frowning at me a little. “Why is he coming?”
“What is with you two,” I ask, baffled, looking between my mate and my sister. “Why is everyone so shocked that I want the baby’s uncle to be here when he’s born?”
“We just didn’t think of it, love,” Sinclair responds, brushing the damp hair away from my forehead. “Our concentration is on you.”
I open my mouth to respond but a sudden surge of pain hits me and I groan, turning my attention back to my belly, my core, where I can feel my child pressed low against me. Ooohhhh,” I say, hunching my shoulders forward. ” Oh , es uno grande ” . _
” Todos van a ser grandes ahora ” , dice Cora , quizás un poco demasiado alegre . ” Vamos , Ella . Es hora de empujar ” .
