  "I guess it's time for us to party now?" She spread her hands out, nodding towards the pile of food and booze the groomsmen had rustled up from the kitchen. A small cheer went up, and it finally, finally felt as if the horror of the last couple of days was done with. They were married, and they had champagne, and nothing else mattered.

  Joel made his way over to Lisa, stuffed his hands in his pockets, and smiled.

  "I'd ask for this dance, but…" he shrugged, and Lisa shook her head.

  "Yeah, shame the band had to leave," she replied flippantly. "But what with the whole being terrorised by a group of wolves thing…"

  "I guess," he cocked his head at her, and for a moment Lisa felt as if he was staring right into her brain. His eyes, flecked with gold, were so intense, she could remember them on the bear that had fought for them earlier, the bear that had helped protect them all.

  "What you did for Tom back there, that was pretty amazing," he continued. "You're pretty brave, taking on a pack like that."

  "He's my brother," she replied with a shrug. "You'd have done the same for your family. Besides, we were running behind on the wedding, we couldn't waste any more time."

  "Yeah, it turned out pretty well in the end," he smiled. "Better than my last wedding."

  Lisa felt a flutter of discomfort. Why was he bringing this up? Surely the last thing he wanted to remind everyone of now was the fact that his marriage had failed, and so recently.

  "Sorry, I didn't mean to-" he shook his head. "I just wanted to be clear that I'm well over everything that happened, the separation, everything. And I know it's kind of soon to start dating again, but…"

  He was cut off by a sudden blast of music, and the two of them turned to find it's source. Adam, one of the groomsmen, had dragged out an old CD player and switched on some classic swing tune. Joel turned back to Lisa, and held out his hand.

  "Dance?"

  "Sure," she nodded. She knew that he was right, it was kind of mad to be chasing down someone so soon after a separation, when they weren't even properly divorced yet. But, as Joel drew her close into his chest and swayed her back and forth, she couldn't fight the feeling in her chest. This was good, this felt right. Even if Tom had been intent on keeping them apart, Lisa was glad she'd managed to find him and meet him at last.

  "So," Joel started, his head resting on top of Lisa's, "What happens now?"

  "What do you mean?" Lisa murmured. She glanced around the room, and noted with amusement that the rest of the groomsmen and bridesmaids seemed to have paired off as well. She wondered if any of them had panicked, if any of them had wondered if this was too soon or too slow or too weird. And if any of them had completely ignored that and gone for it anyway.

  "Well, the wedding's over, the storm's holding off, and we'll probably be going home soon," He explained. "And I'm not ready to be done with you yet."

  Lisa inhaled deeply, pressing her head against his chest.

  "I'm not ready either," she admitted. "But…"

  She didn't know what she was going to say, it could have been anything from his marriage to his shifter stuff to the fact that they barely knew each other. All of that hadn't gone away just because they'd survived the weekend and the wedding. But before she had a chance to finish her thought, he leaned down and pressed a kiss against her lips. It was soft and gentle, and immediately took her straight back to the moment they'd had outside, in the wind and rain, just before everything had gone down. She remembered how she'd felt then. Ready, hungry, needy.

  "But…?" He prompted her as he pulled back. She took a deep breath, and then spoke.

  "Look, there's a lot of…shit here, there just is," she admitted, gesturing between the two of them as they continued to sway to the music. "Fuck, I don't even know where you live or what you do or…anything. But I just want to have a good time tonight, and we can take things as they come when we get off this island. Deal?"

  He nodded.

  "Deal."

  Lisa smiled, feeling relieved. She wasn't ready to jump into some hardcore relationship with some guy who'd just made it out of a marriage, but Joel was…special. And she wasn't about to call the shots right now just because everything was uncertain. This was always going to be a weekend that she remembered, but she wanted it to be for good reasons instead of the terrible ones she'd already been given.

  "Hey," he murmured, keeping his voice low, his breath tickling her ear and making her shiver. "You want to…check out the kitchen?"

  She looked up at him, eyebrows raised. She had never so much made out in public before, and if he was suggesting was she thought he was suggesting…?

  "No-one will notice," he continued, "I'd just be kicking myself if I didn't take advantage of tonight, you know, having you right here…"

  Lisa felt a twinge between her legs. She couldn't remember the last time she'd been turned on by just hearing someone talk. She looked around again, everyone in the room looked pretty well absorbed in their own little romantic entanglement, too focused to notice a missing groomsman and bridesmaid… Lisa went over the options in her head. She couldn't even believe she was considering this, but as she looked up into his eyes, she knew that she wanted him, and she wanted him now.

  "Do it," she grinned, and he took her hand and quickly, quietly led her out through the door. Glancing over her shoulder, Lisa felt a buzz of excitement, making sure to pull the door tightly closed behind them. No-one had so much as turned around when they'd left, and knowing that they were getting away with it made it even hotter.

  Lisa's heels tapped on the tiled floor as Joel flicked on a light, for a hotel as pointedly kitsch as this one, it was weird to see a kitchen as generic as this. All crisp metal surfaces, shiny white floors, and strip lighting. Lisa came to a stop, leaning up against one of the counters seductively, and waited for Joel. He made eye contact across the room, and strode towards her, slowing his pace as he approached as if savouring the few moments before their bodies met. Lisa's heart pounded in her chest, and she felt more nervous than she had all day. The wolves had nothing on the look in Joel's eyes right then.

  Finally, he reached her, and wound an arm around her waist and pulled her in close. Lisa forced herself to look up into his eyes, which were shining with desire, and drew in a sharp inhale as his lips finally met her's. But this time, there was nothing to stop them, this time there was nothing to get in the way. This time, it was just the two of them, and Lisa had no intention of letting it go to waste.

  Joel's hands were immediately roaming all across Lisa's body, down to her ass, lifting her up on to the counter so she could wrap her legs around his waist. She arched her back towards him so she could press her breasts against his chest, he had a surprising strength despite his skinny frame, muscles underneath his jacket and shirt. Lisa reached up and began to undo his buttons, pulling the fabric aside to expose his chest. Placing a hand on her lower back, he pulled her closer, so close that she could feel his erection pressing against her through his slacks.

  "I've never done anything like this before," Lisa murmured, as she peppered kisses from his throat down towards his chest.

  "Yeah, me neither," Joel panted. "I just…you, in that dress. I couldn't wait any longer."

  "Stop," Lisa groaned, as he slid his hands beneath her straps and pushed them down her arms. He was too much-she had never had a guy want her this spontaneously and with this much passion. It was the hottest thing she'd ever experienced, and she was torn between making it last for as long as she could and wanting him inside her right at that very second. He coaxed her dress down, and she pulled her arms from the straps, allowing it to fall down her chest and expose her tits. She was glad she had gone braless as soon as he lowered his mouth to her chest and gently nipped her nipples between his teeth. Every touch, every bite, it was more than anything she'd ever felt before, almost too much to bare. She held his head in place, closing her eyes and revelling in the feeling his mouth skimming across her breast. The heat between her legs was grow
ing, growing to almost unbearable levels, and she knew that she wouldn't be able to wait much longer.

  It seemed as if Joel, however, had other plans entirely. He knelt down, pushing her legs up till her feet were planted on the counter and her dress was hiked up above her knees. She was wearing white cotton panties underneath, and he quickly pushed her legs apart and pressed his nose against her, inhaling deeply. She tried her hardest not to moan too loudly, not wanting to give away their deviancy to anyone in the next room, but it was a Herculean effort, feeling the warmth of his mouth so close to her pussy was almost painfully pleasurable. But even that wasn't as good as what came next.

  He hooked his fingers around her panties, and hastily pushed them aside, exposing her entirely. She spread her legs even further, lewdly displaying herself for him, and he didn't need telling twice. He instantly pressed his mouth against her, his mouth immediate and passionate and everywhere. His tongue skimmed across her outer lips and his hands reached round to grope at her ass, pulling her on to his mouth. He flicked his tongue against her clit, once, twice, more times than she could count, and she let her head drop back as the feeling overwhelmed her. He pulled one hand away from her ass, and slipped two fingers straight into her. She practically convulsed at his touch, squirming beneath him as he moved his tongue mercilessly across her most sensitive spot and curled his fingers into a beckoning motion inside her, hitting her g-spot within seconds. She gripped the sides of the counter for support, her breath coming quicker than before, as she felt the orgasm finally, finally building, finally ready to provide her some relief-

  And then he stopped. He didn't remove his finger from her, and his mouth was still hovering a few inches from her pussy, but he left her teetering right on the edge of an orgasm, unable to do much more than moan lightly and stare down at him with a confused expression.

  "What do you want?" He asked softly, stirring his fingers gently inside of her once again, leaving her shivering above him. She couldn't do anything but mew quietly, but he was relentless.

  "Tell me," he continued, and she could feel his hot breath on her pussy every time he opened his mouth.

  "I want you to fuck me," she finally replied. Hearing the words coming out of her mouth, she knew they were true, knew how much she wanted him, how much she desired him in that moment. He pulled a condom from his pocket, and hastily pulled down his slacks, exposing his cock for the first time. Lisa's breath had returned by then, her body cooling off enough to speak coherently once more.

  "Here, let me," Lisa grabbed the condom off him, biting the foil open and reaching down to take his sizeable erection in her hand. God, he was hard, she didn't realize how much he was enjoying bringing her right to the edge like that, and leaving her begging for his cock. She rolled the latex down on to him, and felt him shudder at her touch. It was satisfying to know that he wanted her just as much as she wanted him.

  Laying back a little, and placing both her feet on his shoulders, Lisa pulled her skirts up as high as they would go and closed her eyes. She felt him nudging at her entrance, positioning himself, before he eased himself inside her. Fuck, it was almost too much-she had to bite her lip to keep from crying out. She reached down and skimmed her hand across her clit, opening one eye to watch him watching her. Being observed had always been a turn-on for her, and taking in his slightly furrowed brow intense stare was beyond erotic. He slammed into her, the position allowing him to get even deeper than normal. Lisa groaned, scrunching up her feet in her heels above him, and moved her fingers with more definition against her clit.

  "You look so good like that," he growled, and she looked at him again, he had that darkness in his eyes, that intensity again. It was a good look on him.

  "Not so bad yourself," she giggled in return, immediately closing her eyes and stretching out her back as she drew small circles across her pussy. She wouldn't take much longer now, she could feel the orgasm building inside her, urged on by her fingers and the thrusting of his cock, her body aching for some kind of release, a cap on the hellish and heavenly day she'd had.

  He finished first, slamming himself inside of her so hard that she shifted back a few inches, his cock twitching and throbbing so hard she could feel it through the condom. She opened her eyes to watch him, and the look on his face as he came was enough to push her over the edge. She couldn't hold back her cry this time, her body finally letting go as her pussy tightened over and over again around his cock. She slowly allowed her legs to fall down around his waist, and propped herself up on her elbows as he leaned down to kiss her one more time, a conversely chaste kiss considering he was still inside her. He slowly withdrew, and she rearranged herself, pulling her skirt down and slipping the straps up over her arms. She looked at him as he did the same, maybe she was being ridiculous and post-coital, but something about Joel seemed to promise more than just this weekend.

  He glanced up, and grinned at her.

  "What?"

  "Nothing," she shook her head. "We should get back, they'll be waiting for us."

  "Or we could sneak back up to my room and do that all again," he suggested, cocking an eyebrow at her. Lisa scanned his face, and wondered if she was making a mistake or the best decision of her life. She felt her heart swell in her chest, and hopped down off the counter.

  "Sounds good," she grinned, unable to keep the bubble of excitement from her voice, and Joel took her hand as the two of them hurried back off to his room. As weddings went, Lisa thought to herself, this one had been pretty much the strangest imaginable. But she had a feeling the best was yet to come.

  Bear Dating Agency I

  by

  Becca Fanning

  The night of June 4th was horrific, embarrassing and terrifying. On June 5th, Elise Davenport thought that her life couldn’t possibly get any worse. She was wrong.

  For starters, she was lost in the woods. Elise had entered the wilds of Fairhaven Park about an hour ago, chatting away to her agent about the disaster of the night before, only to find that when she hung up the call, she had veered off the path. The sun had long-since settled into the blackness of night, turning leafy green trees into heaps of shadow. Elise’s spine tingled with cold, despite the balmy air of a summer night in the California countryside. Something was very, very wrong.

  And that something was a bear.

  Elise wasn’t sure what she was looking at, at first, but she froze on the spot, staring into the forest ahead. The huge lumbering shape made a move, just a few steps forward, and suddenly it was fully defined. Elise saw the impossibly wide, shaggy head of brown fur, and the huge paws with long, curling claws. The bear had small, dark eyes, which caught the moonlight and reflected it in silver discs. It took a few more steps, out of the foliage and straight into Elise’s path.

  Frozen with fear, Elise could only imagine the horror of being mauled to death by a bear. It was a grizzly too, which was totally impossible for California, yet there it was in all its hefty glory. People wouldn’t believe that this was how she’d died. They’d imagine that she had faked her own death, rather than face the backlash of the biggest mistake of her modelling career. When the bear took a sudden lunge, a deep growl caught in its throat, Elise lost her thoughts completely.

  And then, as if fate didn’t hate her enough, another bear entered the small clearing.

  It was even larger than the first, and slightly darker in color. The fur seemed to glisten as if it was wet, picking up silver strands of reflected moonlight. Elise’s body shivered, her breathing escaping in stunted puffs of air. The new bear glanced her way, and its eyes were golden. Even in the depth of night, those two shining orbs burned like sunlight. It was both the most beautiful and terrifying thing she had ever seen. The two grizzlies faced off, each eyeing the other for a long, silent moment.

  Elise took one step, daring to try and back away. At her movement, the golden-eyed bear leapt in front of her, teeth bared to its smaller adversary. Elise heard the clas
h of gigantic muscles as the creatures started to tussle, and her breathing gave way to a cry. Every blow was powerfully violent, and Elise willed her shaking legs to work again. The golden-eyed bear was beating the other one back, but that surely meant that he wanted this tall, blonde woman for his very own midnight snack. Elise couldn’t afford to be around when that moment came.
