Tears blossomed behind my eyes, but I blinked them back, wanting to memorize every detail of this moment so I’d never forget the love shining in their eyes or the hope sliding through the bond as they collectively held their breath.
“Yes,” I whispered, then shouted it at the top of my lungs, “Yes!”
I bounced up and down on my toes while Jamison laughed and tried to get the ring on. It hugged my finger perfectly and sparkled in the emerging sunset, a blaze of color catching in the glittering diamonds.
My men surged around me, kissing and hugging me, hands skimming over my belly that would grow round in the coming months.
This was love.
This was happiness.
This was worth the broken road it had taken to wind up right here, with these men.
My pack. My mates. And soon, my husbands.
The silvery sheen of my bite marks already adorned their skin, but now they would be mine in every way imaginable, and my heart wanted nothing less.
I would become Demi LeighMaverick—the last name we’d all take as one unified pack.
Shedding my past and claiming my future had never felt so right.
It had taken me a long time to realize you couldn’t see the stars without the darkness. The journey to get here had been long and arduous, but there was beauty in survival and strength in healing. I’d come out the other side stronger for all I’d lived through.
But now? Now I chose to live in the light.
Because believe it or not, happily ever afters did exist.
And I finally found mine.
The End
