“You want us to run the retreats?” Fallon asks, shaking her head as if she doesn’t believe what she’s hearing.

“Yeah,” Rhett nods. “We’re not as good at it as I would have hoped and it’s a woman’s domain, we want to get a good team together and truly let this place shine.”

“And we’ll live here?”

He nods. “In a cabin until we can build some quarters for you. They’ll be private and you’ll have your own space.”

“Will we get our own horse, because I don’t feel like I can run this place without a horse?” I grin.

Rhett chuckles. “You can have whatever the fuck you want if you agree.”

“Well,” I shrug, smirking, “you already know I’m in, I have a hot cowboy to stay for.”

That earns me a look from all the guys that tells me just how much they hate being called cowboys.

“Ladies?” Rhett asks the other two.

“Stuff it, I’m in,” Ember claps. “I love this place!”

I look to Fallon, praying she stays, too. These two girls, they’ve become really important to me in the last few weeks, and I’d love for them to continue on this journey with us.

Fallon looks to me, and then breaks out into a big smile. “Fuck yeah, I’m in!”

I squeal with delight and throw my arms around them both, pulling them in for a group hug. We do a little happy dance and then pull back, a huge smile on all our faces.

Lei and June are both grinning, and I know we’re going to create an epic friendship with the two of them, too.

“Then welcome to Walker Hills, ladies. You’re official part of the family,” Rhett tells us, putting his arm around Lei. “We’ll have some paperwork drawn up for you in the next few days. As of right now, you’re no longer guests, but family. I’ll even leave it up to you to pick all future groups that come through this place.”

“Oh hell yes,” June yells and Enzo chuckles, pulling her close to him.

“Thank you,” Ember says, and I can’t help but notice how her eyes travel over to Madden, who grins at her.

Oh, those two are a thing. Most definitely.

Rhett finishes up with us and I turn to Lake, smiling because damn, this is everything I could have ever wanted and more.

“Does this mean technically you work for me, considering we’re now in charge of the retreats?” I tease.

He reaches for me and hauls me up against him, pressing a kiss to my forehead. “Dream on, baby. I’m the boss around here.”

I snort. “We’ll see about that.”

He leans down and captures my mouth with his, and oh, I can’t wait to see where the future takes us. Where it takes all of us.

“Are you happy?” he murmurs.

“You have no idea. This is all I could have ever dreamed of and more. I’m going to love it here. I already do.”

“Don’t think you’re gettin’ out of the hard work, either. Barry is still out there, waiting for your big return.”

“Fuck Barry, I’ll tame that bull. Don’t you worry about it.”

“As long as you don’t tame me, we’re good.”

I grin. “Is that a challenge, River? Because I think I can accept it.”

He growls and bites my lip.

But he doesn’t correct me.

I think it’s growing on him now.

Just like I plan to...for a very very long time.

This is freedom, and oh damn, it feels good.

Welcome home, bitches. The ladies are in the house now.

THE END
