Epilogue

The wedding

“Ready?” Tawny stepped up behind Allie and smiled. The mirror Allie was currently staring at was floor to ceiling length, and the sight that stared back at Allie had her in tears. She was getting married, actually about to tie the knot with a big, bad bear shifting biker.

“I’m nervous as hell.” She smoothed her hands down the lace, knee length white wedding dress she wore. This was an informal wedding, held in the back property of the Grizzly MC clubhouse. She had no family in attendance, but The Grizzlies were her family now. Drevin and her babies would be there, the club members and their old ladies, and the women she’d come to know as friends.

“You’ll do fine, and you look gorgeous.” Drevin will shit bricks when he sees you.”

Allie chuckled, wiped a tear out from under her ear, and thought to herself that he was finally having her happily ever after.

She was currently in one of the rooms in the clubhouse, her heart thundering a mile a minute, sweat beading between her breasts, and her nerves wreaking havoc on her. She didn’t know why she was so afraid. It had been months since she’d had the twins, and she and Drevin were at a great part in their lives and relationship right now. She didn’t want a huge wedding with all the bells and whistles, even if that’s what Drevin wanted to give her. She just wanted to make it official with the man she loved and finally be his wife.

“So, take a deep breath. You ready?” Tawny asked again and smiled.

“As ready as I will ever be I guess.” She gave Tawny a hug after she turned from her reflection. “Thank you for everything, for being there for me when I didn’t have anyone, and making me feel like I belonged.”

Tawny smiled. “You are family, and you do belong. Drevin’s just making an honest woman out of you,” she winked, a teasing note in her voice.

After giving one more hug, Allie took a step back and took a deep breath.

“Come on, it’ll be great.”

She followed Tawny out of the clubhouse and to the back property. She had no one to walk her down the aisle, no father or brother, but she knew she didn’t need any of that to be happy. She had a group full of bikers that treated her as if she were one of them, kept her and her babies protected, and a man that loved her more than anything else on the planet.

When she reached the aisle, there were chairs on either side of her, all filled with bikers from this charter and others around the country. They’d come to show their respect and love for Drevin and her, and although they didn’t know her, she was Drevin’s old lady, and therefore they cared about her. There were so many Harleys lined up on the side that it looked like some kind of Harley show. Many of the bikers had on their dark sunglasses and leather Grizzly MC cuts, showing their support and loyalty.

“Just breathe,” Tawny said, staying right beside her. Dallas, Tawny’s father, had offered to walk her down the aisle, but Allie had never done anything traditional, and figured no need to start now.

Seeing all those bear shifting bikers had this warm, protected feeling surrounding her. She didn’t know the majority of them, but that didn’t matter, because they were here to support her and Drevin. The Grizzlies were one huge extended family, everyone linking arms to give their strength when it was needed.

Drevin stood at the end of the aisle, the other six original Grizzly members standing behind him Jagger, Brick, Dallas, Court, Stinger, and Diesel. They all wore their leather cuts over white button down shirts, and the sight of Drevin dressed up yet keeping to his biker roots had her smiling.

She’d asked Tawny to be her bridesmaid, and although she could have had all of the Grizzly women stand up there with her, all of them close to Allie, she had kept with the non-traditional route.

She forced herself not to cry as she stared at everyone, seeing their happiness, their love, and their acceptance on their faces. She’d talked to them about her past and where she’d come from. They never once judged her, never once shunned her. They accepted Allie with open arms and took her in as family.

Tawny moved away from her and went to stand across from Drevin.

“I’m ready,” Allie whispered to herself, tightened her hold on the small bouquet of flowers she held, and smiled. Sonya and Darra held Colt and Cami, her little babies squirming and talking a mile a minute in their baby gibberish. Allie started crying tears of happiness at the sight of her children, and then cried harder when she looked up at Drevin and saw the love reflected back at her.

She closed her eyes and felt a tear slide down her cheek as she laughed at how ridiculously happy she was.

When she was in front of Drevin he immediately cupped her cheeks and wiped the tears away.

“No crying today, not even happy tears.”

She smiled and sniffed.

“I love you, Allie baby.” He leaned forward and kissed her softly.

This was the first step in her new life. She stood beside Drevin, and before they even said their vows Drevin reached behind him for a leather jacket that Jagger gave him. He opened it up and turned it around so she could see the back, and her mouth dropped open slightly. She knew form the stories she heard that this was a tradition with the Grizzlies, and she felt her heart swell. On the back of the leather jacket was the Grizzly MC patch. The top rocker read “PROPERTY OF”, and the bottom rocker read “DREVIN”. She cried harder now, her happiness and love for this man and this club taking control. Colt and Cami started crying, too, and she looked behind her and laughed through her tears. Her babies were just as emotional as she was.

“This is it, baby girl, no going back now,” he said softly. “You’re stuck with me, with this life, and I won’t let you go. Ever.” Drevin looked so serious.

“You better never let go,” she whispered through her smile and teaser of happiness, and then they turned toward the minister and got married in front of everyone they loved.
