Together Forever: Billionaire Alpha (12 page)

He picked her up and spun her around once before kissing her tenderly.

“Do you think we would be missed if we slipped off?” He lifted his eyebrows once.

She shook her head and wrapped herself around him, needing the warmth of his arms. “We would be, but since when did you start caring?”

“I am a greedy little thing.” He laughed and leaned down to look her in the eye. “Only for you. Forever.”

“Forever,” she whispered and lifted to her toes, losing herself in the only thing she wanted to belong to - him.

EPILOGUE

“Does this look right?” Bethany turned to look over her shoulder, glancing down the back of her dress. Her mother tugged at it a few more times before turning to Erica.

“I think it does. Am I missing something?” Bethany’s mom moved out of the way as Erica started to tug at the long white train.

“Is everything in place? Everyone ready to go?” Bethany spoke quickly, her heart threatening to beat out of her chest.

The last year had been a whirlwind. Planning the wedding and graduating with her master’s having been her biggest commitments. She had grown to be a respected part of the firm and would soon be promoted to manager. She had worked hard to make Kent and Damon understand that she wasn’t willing to take the easy road. Earning every promotion was important to her.

Damon had a different way of making her ‘earn’ it. She smirked at the thought.

Matt had finally relented and come to work for the firm, him and Erica dating, which blew everyone’s mind. At least that’s what Matt thought.

“You look beautiful. Still your thoughts and let every detail of this moment solidify.” Her mom took her face into her hands and leaned in, kissing her cheek softly.

Kent was everything he promised to be and her mother was healthy, happy and crazy in love. Now it was her turn to take that next step. Living with Damon the last eight months had proven a few things to her. One was that their love was only going to grow. She wanted him more now than she had the first day she was overwhelmed by him in his office. Secondly, they fit together perfectly. Not just in the bedroom, but in the kitchen, in the office and in decision making. She was almost overwhelmed by how hard he had worked to change a few things about himself to better complement her. She had done the same thing and looked for the opportunity to do so any time it presented itself.

A smile brushed across her lips at the image of Christa’s face when they run into each other at the beach party the next day. The girl was shocked to see the ring on Bethany’s hand, but with grace and humility, Bethany treated her with far more dignity than she would have returned. Seeing her balk at the promise of Damon’s future was enough to right all worries. She was his and that was the end of the story.

“I’m good. Let’s do this.” Bethany nodded as butterflies tore up her stomach.

Erica smiled and moved out of the room, followed by Bethany’s mom.

She stood there for a few minutes, closing her eyes and whispering the only thing she could think to say. “Thank you. Thank you for this chance. Thank you for this life and this love. Thank you.”

The door opened and Kent smiled at her. “Are you ready, baby?”

“I am.” She moved up and slipped her arm into his, her legs suddenly shaking badly. “Don’t let me fall.”

“Never.” He smiled down at her. “Let’s go start the best years of your life.”

“I’m ready.” She smiled up at him as the church doors opened. Everyone stood as the wedding march began. She tried to find Damon at the front of the huge crowd, but couldn’t locate him just yet. Fear ran through her, but she pushed it down, simply reminding herself to just take one step at a time. They had destroyed so many misconceptions between them by being faithful to simply take another step forward together and here they were… getting married.

She finally caught his gaze, the smile on his face heartbreaking. His dark eyes were filled with tears, his expression one of complete and utter adoration.

He muttered four words that she had heard many times over the last year, but they never seemed to get old. She wanted to hear them, to see them, to feel them every day for the rest of her life. He was her forever and she was his.

He whispered them again as he took his place beside her, a tear dripping down his cheek. “I love you forever.”

As a photographer for the
New York Post
, Kari Martin was used to seeing heartache and scandal up close. But one night at the club… her whole world changed.

Heartbroken and willing to call off her wedding, she decides a change is in order and moves from NYC to a small town in Maine, where the average age of the residents there is sixty (or thereabouts). She works to fit in perfectly, and tries like hell not to let anyone find out just how very jaded she’s recently become over the lie called love.

Jake Isaac left Texas quite a few years ago; his heart torn from his chest, and his mind set on being a bachelor forever. Maine would welcome him, give him land to explore and a community to belong to. Getting a job as the coach of the local junior high and serving on the fire department kept him busy — and labeled him a hometown hero — but the truth of his damaged heart was forever hidden.

No one would ever know just how jaded he was about love. That is… until he meets Kari.

In a quick turnaround trip to help his older sister, Kari move to Maine after heartbreak, Marc meets the woman that just might be his match. Lust has been a reoccurring theme in his life, and he has no plans of changing that.
