Jake, Shana Trevor and Tara were waiting for them. “Auntie Katie, I told you that you’d be happy likes my mommy.” Trevor sent her an innocent smile.
“You were right big guy. I’m almost happy.” Katie looked to Jake and Shana expecting to find pity, but in the depths of their eyes she only saw anticipation. “What are you all doing here?”
Shana was the one to reply, “We came to shop with you. You’ll need a wedding dress, flowers, videographer, photographer and a caterer. We came to help. The big day is set for October sixth.”
“I hope you don’t mind, I choose the day. Its next weekend so we have just enough time to pull it off. Unless, you want to go down to the justice of the peace.” Conner sounded uncomfortable.
“I’ll marry you anywhere, and anytime, you want. Why the big rush?”
“You’re carrying my pups, and I want you to meet my family, and move into my house and…never ever leave! I want you to stay forever, and if you need space I’ll try and give it, but please never leave our home. I need you.”
“Alright, if you insist, but you’re sounding very needy.” Katie smiled wickedly at him.
“You have no idea how needy I’ve been.”
And there she was standing on Decker’s porch, when she realized this was her family; where they were was where she called home.
Epilogue
Conner was nervously pacing in front of the wedding guests. His parents were in the front row looking at him as if he’d lost his mind. Jake was standing next to him, as his Alpha and best man. Decker was standing next to Jake, because he was a wonderful friend to Katie. Decker was the closest thing to family she had, other than Shana and Trevor.
What was taking so long, the ceremony was supposed to start fifteen minutes ago. They had decided to have the ceremony at the house he and Katie now shared, in the backyard looking to the forest. He just knew Katie was going to run. She was skittish as a kitten in a tree.
Without warning, the music changed and he filed back into line where he was supposed to wait for her to come to him. If she hadn’t changed her mind.
Tara appeared walking down the aisle. Well, you couldn’t call it walking but more like waddling since she was very pregnant. Then came Shana the Matron of honor; she looked wonderful in her strapless lavender full length gown, but she had eyes for Jake only.
Conner caught her scent before she came into view, and his hormones went wild. He couldn’t believe that at the end of the aisle was his future bride with Trevor on her arm. Trevor had walked her about halfway down the aisle, when she got a panicked look in her eye, and turned on her heels to run. She had run the length of the aisle as the guests watched in amazement. Conner was just about to go charging after her, when she twirled around and looked him in the eye, winked, and said, “Just kidding.” And she sauntered back to her place, next to a giggling Trevor.
When Katie and a still giggling Trevor arrived next to Conner he whispered, “You’ll pay for that.”
“I was hoping you would say that, Mr. Matthews, I have some suggestions.”
Conner and Katie said their vows without further incident, but when it came time for him to kiss his new bride… As soon as their lips touched he heard a muttered curse from behind him.
A frantic Decker Picked up a very pregnant, and now dripping, Tara and carried her down the aisle. Decker yelling, “Someone call 9-1-1.” Decker was holding Tara protectively, while she sniffed his neck-and smiled down at him.
Trevor smiled, “Not again.”#p#分页标题#e#
Katie and Conner were blessed with two boys and a girl the next year. They were healthy and received much love and attention from both parents and a doting Quinn.
