Tamed by the Bear (Bear Creek Clan 3) by Harmony Raines

sometimes we just have to wait for life to iron out the kinks.”
    “So we are kinks?” Antonia asked.
    “No. You know what I mean. Our childhood was the kink, and this is kind of like our reward for getting through it.”
    “A life with two men who will go to the ends of the earth for us?”
    “Yes,” Kayleigh said simply.
    “Then I don’t think we should keep them waiting.”
    “You’re keen,” Kayleigh said, taking Antonia’s hand. “Let’s go.”
    Walking hand in hand, they made their way through the congregation to where Daryl and Sam stood side by side. In front of them was the head of the Bear Creek Clan; it was he who would marry them. He performed every wedding ceremony in Bear Creek. All around them well-wishers smiled. It seemed everyone had turned out to see the Cartwright brothers finally married.
    In the front row sat a very proud Ginny with her husband, Hank. Ginny was already dabbing at her eyes, Hank had his arm around her, smiling broadly, and Antonia already loved them. They had been overwhelmed when Sam had broken the news to them that he had asked Antonia to marry him and she had said yes.
    Hastily, the town had pulled together to make the double wedding possible. Two sisters who had never belonged anywhere being welcomed into Bear Creek and the Clan, as if they had always lived here.
    The two grooms took their brides by the hand and the ceremony began. Antonia looked into Sam’s eyes, knowing she had made the right decision. He was her life now, and she was excited by the prospect of sharing every day with him. When they were pronounced man and wife, he lifted her veil and kissed her as if it was the first time.
    Her stomach clenched with desire for him. A desire that they would fulfil on their wedding night and every night for the rest of their lives. Lives that would be made longer at the Beltane Rites, but for now the ceremony was over and the party was about to begin.
    “I love you,” he whispered.
    She smiled, stroking his cheek and saying, “I love you too, Sam.”
    Beside her, her sister stood, wrapped in Daryl’s arms. Antonia gave herself a moment to absorb the joy she felt inside. Hadn’t they shown that despite everything, happiness was always waiting around the corner? They had simply found the strength to grasp hold of it, and they would never now let go.
     

The End
*
    High up in the mountains, Will ran until he thought his lungs would burst. His heart beat rapidly, but he didn’t deserve a heart at all. Not when he had turned away from his one true mate. He stopped, his short snout raised in the air as he breathed in the scent of her. She was close. Today of all days, when Sam and Daryl were getting married, did he have to feel her presence?
    He could have gone to her. Told her the truth and eased her pain. Instead he turned and ran away. He was a coward, what right did he have to call himself a bear at all? He was nothing. She was better off without him. Yet the pull of her was so great, but his resolve was stronger.
