more complications. Both were good outcomes. They just had to focus on that.
Arch had taken the phone from Jim and said his piece to his nephew, the Alpha, as well, and when he was done, the Pack ties had been broken, though not totally abandoned. They were all still family and would continue to be close. They just weren’t going to live in each other’s pockets anymore. Not that they really had been doing that for the last couple of years. Now, it was official. Jim and Arch had both broken away from the Pack and were considered lone wolves.
Only, they both knew they had just exchanged a wolf Pack for a bear Clan. It might be a bit unorthodox, but it worked because, while they may carry different animal spirits, the men were the same at heart. They were all warriors. Special Forces veterans with deep senses of duty and honor. They had been tested in some of the worst hellholes on the planet, and they had each proven their metal.
That was a bond that could, and did, form strong alliances, regardless of their differences. Jim and Arch would do well with the bears in Grizzly Cove, and Helen had already made a few new friends among the magical folk. Gus and his mate, Laura, had invited Jim and Helen to join them for lunch, where they got to meet John’s mate, Ursula, and her sister, Mellie, who was mated to another of the bear shifters. Both women were highly magical, and they welcomed Helen with open arms.
“I’m very happy,” Helen replied to Jim’s question, squeezing his hands with hers. “Ecstatic, in fact. I never thought I’d find a life like this, or a man like you.”
“Then, we’re even,” he told her, rocking her a bit, from side to side. “I never dreamed of a love so deep and true, or a place where we could be ourselves and learn and grow.”
She sighed happily and he felt the same deep sense of satisfaction that he sensed in her. Helen leaned back against him as they both gazed at the prophetic portrait of them both. Her words summed up how they both felt.
“I think we’re going to like it here.”
