Leah watched the human as she brushed her hair into a bun. The milky strands that had once stuck out in every direction was pulled up into a ponytail and braided before being twisted around.
The wolf almost wondered why she even bothered to get all dressed up. The human had a excuse to relax and not focus on looks.
"Leah." Seth called from the forest. She tooked one last look at the pregnant human before running off towards her brother.
------
"Sam is making his move. I've been seeing his wolves around town. They see the treaty as null and void." Alice informed everyone. Bella drunk her cup of blood silently as Destiny sat on the steps of the house.
"The treaty has truly been broken. Everyone is to keep fed. We will wait for his next move." Carlisle stated. When he said that, Rosalie tapped Destiny before speeding off. The blonde human smiled knowing it was a sign that she would always be with her.
Jasper went with her along with Edward. The pack took their place.
Destiny waddled looking almost to term. Bella sighed as she closed her eyes.
"Hey, Bell. Wanna figure out baby names when Rosalie and Edward come back."
"Sure." She looked at Destiny to see the woman absolutely glowing. Her french tips that Alice had done tapped against her cheek. She was surprisingly seductive to Bella.
"I envy you." Bella whispered.
Destiny nodded "I can understand why."
"Help me take a shower?" Bella asked rising herself up.
"Sure thing. Lemme get a towel." Destiny said walking towards the hall closet to get 4 big towels and 2 little ones. She walked back to see Bella undressing. Her body was frail and looked sickly as she ran the bathwater.

Destiny smiled despite her sadness and began unbuttoning her shirt after closing the door.
"You're bruising?" Bella gasped looking the variety of black and blue bruises on her stomach.
"Don't tell, Carlisle. I don't want him to worry. The baby just has some powerful moments." She sighed shrugging her clothes off.
"That looked like more than powerful moments." Bella said pressing a hand against the blonde's bruise drawing out a wince. "Sorry."
"It's fine. Let's get in the water and wash up." Destiny said almost whimpering at the ripples of pain the touch caused.
After a few moments, Bella spoke again. "You need to tell Carlisle. You might have Hematoma."
"Bella." Destiny scoffed, "I'm fine."
She hummed a lackluster agreement before putting shampoo in their hair. Destiny followed with a brush to pick up anything on her scalp.
After she finished, she dunked the brush into the water and watched as it released the suds into the water. It was satisfying to watch.
"Bella. Destiny. Time for dinner." Alice called opening the door. The girls wrapped their hair and body.
"We'll be out in a bit." Destiny said walking out and upstairs to get her clothes and lotion.
----
The two joined the vampires as they smiled warmly. Carlisle grabbed Destiny holding her in a close hug.
"Babe..." She whispered kissing him. He returned the kiss and she smiled brightly.
"You're absolutely beautiful." Carlisle whispered pulling her towards him with her chin before kissing her again.
"Let's eat." Bella said softly.
"Yea." Destiny sat beside her and ate the lasagna that Esme made. "It's amazing, Esme."
"Thank you. Destiny, you are glowing." She commented.
"Yea, the baby's gonna come out strong. Look at the effect it has on its mother." Emmett commented.

"So my baby is weak?" Bella asked dropping her fork on the plate.
"No, I didn't mean it like that." He stated holding his hands up in surrender.
"Then what did you mean?" She growled.
"Bella. Calm." Destiny whispered breathing for her. She was so frustrated that she looked sick from Emmett's comment.
"I'm gonna go to bed." She spat before leaving. Alice sighed facepalming.
"I didn't realize she was that sensitive." Emmett defended.
"It's fine, Emmett. Let her breathe." Carlisle said with the shake of his head.
"Can we all just treat me and Bella equally unless special treatment is absolutely necessary? I'm tired of her storming off or looking like someone beheaded Edward right in front of her face everytime someone brings me up." Destiny sighed holding her head from the growing migraine. The baby kicked in disapproval but Destiny ignored it as best as she could.
"She's jealous." Alice stated. Esme sighed and turned to put the plate in the sink.
-----
Over the next few days, Bella got bigger and needed constant supervision. Destiny sat alone eating a salad as everyone including Carlisle fawned over her every move. Rosalie, Jasper, and Edward had returned. Edward went on a run with Jacob.
"Ok so Renessme for a girl." Rosalie's eyebrows frowed for a moment.
"Too much?"
"No... It sounds nice. Let's tell the guys." Alice chirped like normal.
Destiny watched as the guys returned from training. Esme came downstairs.
She blocked out everything until Jacob walked up to her.
"What did you decide on for the prodigy baby?" He asked. Carlisle looked up momentarily until Edward asked him to talk.
"I don't know yet. Hopefully, it'll come to me when I see him."
"Another bouncing baby boy. I really should've gotten those blue balloons." Jake joked. She punched him.
"Shut up. It was Carlisle's guess."
"Speaking of which, why is he suddenly all about Bella?" Jake asked a bit louder than anticipated.
"Jake, please." Destiny shooked her head.
"I say you fight for your mate. Bella's trying to leech all the attention." He stated.
"Jacob. Please."
"I'm just speaking the truth." He stated.
"Jake, leave me alone!" She said firmly before gasping and holding her stomach. Carlisle was on him within seconds pushing him away. Jake growled shaking as he began to shift into his wolf form. He charged towards Carlisle instantly.
"Carlisle!" She screamed as all the chairs fell over. Destiny caught herself as she saw Jacob snap his fangs at Carlisle.
She heard Bella scream as Rosalie and Alice stared in shock. Edward was at her side in moments.
Destiny began crying as everyone rushed Bella out of the room and into the delivery room.
"Are you alright?" Jasper asked before lifting his hand from the floor. It dripped with a clear liquid. His eyes widened. "Your water broke."
It wasn't a question. It was a statement and Destiny nodded.
"I know."
