Epilogue

Merrik

Two Months Later

I watch my beautiful mate twirl around the dance floor with Kyra and Annie. She's beautiful in her pale dress, her hair done in a soft bun with flowers spilling around it. And she's carrying my babies. Underneath that soft gown is a small growing bump that turns me on every time I see it.

Twins!

Piper and I couldn't believe that we were having two cubs at the same time. A boy and a girl, a rarity in our kind. Leave it to my little mate to do the impossible. Her eyes catch mine and I spot the hot look that comes into them. It turns out my mate is something of a horndog. Thank God!

She hugs Annie, Kyra, and then Annie again before sashaying over to me. I take her hand and pull her into my lap. "How is my beautiful wife?"

"Tired but happy."

I smile. I love knowing she is happy, not so much the tired part. "You aren't overdoing it, are you? Do you need to rest?"

"I'm fine, Merrik." I accept her words and give her a nip on the shoulder.

"Ready to get out of here?"

"Nooo! She hasn't even thrown the bouquet yet."

I look over at Larry who is also more than ready to get out of here. He meets my eyes and stands up to go to his bride. My brother sits down beside us and looks over at where Larry and Annie are talking and kissing.

"So, tell me why again Annie made poor Larry wait for years and years."

"She's human, duh! She couldn't be sure if he was her soulmate because she couldn't sniff it out. She also worried that he wouldn't be as faithful as a wolf would be to her. I told her to get her head out of her ass and marry that man before he stops waiting for her."

"Jeez, sis, you're hardcore when you want to be."

"Damn straight and don't you forget it, brother dear."

Just like Kyra and Annie, my sweet mate has grown close with my brother. They refer to one another as brother and sister now. She's even tamed the twins to the extent Ken can be in the same room with them without resorting to fisticuffs…most of the time!

"My wife and I would like to thank everyone for coming to celebrate this day with us. Truly we will never forget the magical time you've all given us. However, I'm ready to carry my beautiful bride off and keep her just to myself for a couple of weeks."

The wolves in the audience around us clap and shout, knowing exactly how Larry feels, and I squeeze my mate gently to me. I didn't waste time getting her to the altar. As soon as the moon returned to normal and most of the people were out of their mating frenzy, I had her down the aisle. And right behind us was my brother and his mate!

I made sure she had the wedding she always dreamed of too! Nothing but the best for my sweet girl.

Piper pops up out of my lap and starts gathering all the single ladies in one spot so they can reach the bouquet more easily. Annie throws it up high and down it falls, right into the waiting arms of one of my shyer residences. Much like Annie, she's the daughter of humans, but her father died, and her mother mated with one of the wolves in our community. She's young but not very much younger than my own beautiful wife.

"Good for her! I have just the wolf in mind." Piper walks up beside me.

"Oh! Who would that be, my love."

"Dare, of course."

"Dare? You think shy, little…?"

"Opposites attract my love, and I am very sure that she is a mate to one of those twins. I just have to find out which one."

I don't doubt for a second that my mate is right. Piper has a sense about these things and has already matched two couples up. But that's going to be a hell of a story when it's all said and done. For now, I am very ready to go home and make my little mate shout my name over and over again.

I watch as Piper lowers her hand to just above the mating mark and her eyes turn steamy. I plan to make more chapters in our love story tonight and I don't even need a blood moon for inspiration! My little mate makes me go wild for her just by being herself. My sweet, perfect mate!

The End!
