Behr Brothers Chapter 59: They're Together
Wyatt shifted off of Fiona, then came back to lie next to her. He nuzzled her neck, his hand resting on her stomach. "I wish we could stay here forever," he murmured."That would be glorious. Pretend that the world wasn't out there. That nothing was wrong.""We'll work it out, Fi. I promise.""How can you be so sure?" she said. He groaned. "I just am. Trust me. I know that's hard for you."He was right. She didn't trust easily. Too many important people had let her down in life. Including Wyatt. He seemed as if he wanted to make that up to her. She patted him. "We need to get to work.""Ever the practical one," Wyatt said.He kissed her cheek, then stood. He held out his hand, helping her up. He pulled her into his arms, his face against her neck.She couldn't imagine being anywhere else. She loved this man, and as much as that scared her, she knew he wouldn't break her heart. At least not intentionally. He was a grown man who clearly knew what he wanted. And that was her. Her phon
Behr Brothers Chapter 60: She Needs Money
Wyatt squeezed her hand. Asking for help was hard for Fiona. He was proud that she was putting aside her pride to save her sister. When the forms were filled out, Colin sent them via email to his boss. "Let me walk over to his office and talk to him," Colin said.He left. Fiona turned to Wyatt. "I'm not sure how I'm going to repay this.""We'll work it out.'"You shouldn't take this debt on. It's my problem. I'll figure it out."He wished she would stop. She would understand as soon as she realized they were fated to be together. "Fi, it's okay. Let's worry about getting your sister back.""I'm scared for her," Fiona said."I know."Wyatt kissed her hand. "They have no reason to hurt her.""I hope not."Colin came back with a smile on his face. "Good news. It's all set. The money will be in your account in twenty-four hours."Wyatt stood, then hugged his cousin. "Thanks, Colin.""Not a problem."Fiona hugged him also and Colin sent Wyatt a leer over her shoulder. Wyatt showed his co
Behr Brothers Chapter 61: His Secret
Fiona had no idea what Wyatt was so concerned about. What could he possibly show her that would be a problem? Things had been going well. "You wait on the porch, but you can approach me when I'm done. I won't hurt you. It's still me."Okay. That was weird. She didn't know what to expect. She wanted to lean, pretend a casual posture, but she couldn't. Not with the uncertainty in his eyes. Wyatt had never done anything to scare her. Until now. "You ready?"She nodded. "Go ahead."She only had less than an hour before the kidnappers would call again. Impatience warred with curiosity. He turned to her while standing in the yard. At first she blinked her eyes as if she wasn't sure what she was seeing. A few minutes later, where Wyatt had stood, a bear now stood. She looked around the yard. Wyatt hadn't moved. She'd been watching the whole time. The bear went down on all four paws. Her brain told her to be afraid. She wasn't. This had to be Wyatt, but what had happened? The bear approac
Behr Brothers Chapter 1: When Hairy Met Sally
Sally Chambers looked down at her foot stuck in the broken bottom step, hoping that it wasn't an omen. She tugged at her leg, but her foot wasn't coming loose. It was already sore and she thought it might be swollen.The sun was out and it looked like a good day, but she didn't really think it was going to turn out that way. Not an auspicious beginning to her day. She also wasn't wearing much but a long t-shirt and no panties. Damn. When she'd bought the place, she'd had a good feeling. Hopefully, this was a minor setback in her goal to be independent. To leave her ex-boyfriend and his abusive ways behind.She took a deep breath then let it out, not wanting to have this situation define her. Having let her boyfriend define her for too long, she wasn't going to make that mistake again. She glanced around, but there was no one. Not that she'd expected there to be. Her new bed and breakfast had a remote location which was working against her this morning. At least the carpenter was comi
Behr Brothers Chapter 2: Now He Knows
Oh crap. He shouldn't have touched her. Sebastian wanted to run out of the house. Out into the forest to let his beast emerge. He'd thought he'd found his mate in his last girlfriend. Boy had he been wrong.This time, his fingers tingled. His body wanted to have sex, making him instantly aroused. Oh. Shit. As soon as he'd touched Sally, he knew. She was his mate. Too bad he didn't want to meet his mate. That was why he usually didn't deal with people, but this woman had called for a carpenter. He was the expert carpenter in the family. Here he was and he'd found the woman he was destined to be with. Forever.She stared up at him with sparkling eyes. He hoped he hadn't been staring at her or breathing heavily. She must think him nuts. "Uh. Let's see what's wrong."If he had a sister, and he didn't, he hoped that she wouldn't let a stranger carry her into her house. Sebastian knew that he was safe. In fact, he'd give his life to protect her. With a swallow to get his bearings, he to
Behr Brothers Chapter 3: The Carpenter
Right now Sally had other concerns. She had to go to the bathroom and wondered if she could walk on her foot.She'd removed the ice a few minutes ago when he'd instructed her to. Aspirin might help. She examined her foot. It didn't look so bad. Maybe she didn't sprain it.Putting her feet on the floor, she tested the hurt one out. She could put some weight on it. "What are you doing?"She hadn't heard Sebastian come inside. She didn't want to tell him that she had to use the restroom. How embarrassing. Even more so because he'd taken off his shirt. He had great muscles. Not gym muscles, but the ones you get from doing actual physical labor. The sight of the brown hair on his chest, the same shade as on his head, took her breath away. He didn't even appear to be aware of his nakedness."I needed to get up. It doesn't hurt so much," she said.She wasn't helpless and didn't like feeling that way. She had work to do. Painting the rooms upstairs had to get done before any furniture arriv
Behr Brothers Chapter 4: Watching Him Work
Sally sipped her drink, watching him work. His muscles bunched and strained as he nailed new boards to her porch. Would he look like that if he was nailing her? She flushed with the idea. She must go do some chores. She couldn't sit her and stare at him. She was getting all the wrong ideas.Looking out over her property, she tried not to look back at Sebastian. She liked the sight of him. It woke up her lady parts. Oh, they were alive and humming. If he looked at her the right way, her pants would fall off.She shook herself."You okay?" he said.He'd paused, with a board in his hand. Sweat rolled down his chest that had just the right amount of hair on it. Not too much. Not too little. None on his back. "I'm fine. I'm just making a mental list of all that I have to get done.""I understand that. I do that every morning before I get out of bed."Oh, crap. Now she had a picture of him in bed. Shirtless. Under the covers. His hair rumpled. His eyes a little sleepy. She'd bet his voice wa
Behr Brothers Chapter 5: Truck Trouble
"Yeah. My truck won't start. My brother can't come and give me a jump for an hour."Sally pondered the possibilities. There was enough food for both of them. She couldn't just let him sit in his truck while she ate. Pushing the door open farther, she motioned him inside. "Come in. I'll feed you dinner while you wait."He put up his hands, not moving from the doorstep. "You don't have to do that."She eyed him. He looked tired and a big guy like that was probably hungry. "Yeah, I do. I'd feel guilty if I did any less. I have plenty. I don't know how to cook for one."She didn't. She'd cooked for her family for years. Soon she'd be cooking for guests. More than just herself. She ate leftovers more nights than not because she always made so much. He cocked his head, a lock of hair falling across his forehead. He had those forearms that spoke of hard work. As if they'd been sculpted from marble. "You sure I'm not putting you out?"He stood on the doorstep. He was adorable in his shyness.
