Whiskey & Wine

Silent, stoic, cruel even, but undeniably 100% Alpha. Y/n had only heard reverent praise and scared whispers regarding the character of her soon-to-be husband James "Bucky" Barnes. She figured it was lower-level werewolves, ones with no real connection to him, that spoke of him this way. Maybe, though logic made her think otherwise, he was simply a kind man with a bad reputation. Surely not, but all she could do was hope...

The traditional march played as the wedding planner, a female werewolf of her future husband's pack, ushered her down the aisle. Almost tripping on her heels, she tried her best to put one foot in front of the other. She passed her parents, the same ones who'd offered her up for the engagement in the first place, as well as members of both their packs sitting within the small church. Bucky's back was broad, his stance dominant, powerful, and intimidating. Only when she was firmly planted next to him did he finally spare her a glance.

His gaze flicked up and down her face, as if he were tracking her or waiting for a particular shift in expression, one of fear perhaps, like he was used to seeing. She jutted her chin, packing away the stories of malice she'd heard about the man standing beside her at the alter, for sanity's sake if not for her own self-preservation, because, though potentially cruel, he was possibly the most beautiful person she'd ever seen in her life. Her face must've flickered with the internal conflict warring within her because Bucky's gaze sharpened, drinking her in like he'd sip whiskey over ice, slowly and with leisurely purpose.

Then, just as he'd finished looking her up and down, clear hunger in his eyes, his nostrils flared and his eyes widened. She knew then, flush creeping up the back of her neck, that they'd noticed it at the exact same time...the scent, the intoxicating smell. To her, he oozed of leather, wood, salt, and fire, but also, somehow, of home. His scent was so strong it was almost like a siren's call. What she smelled of to him she did not know though it seemed he was struggling similarly. Her lips parted as her cheeks heated, almost curious enough to ask, as if the eyes of both their packs weren't watching curiously from the church pews mere feet away.

"Ready, Alpha?" the officiant asked, clearing his throat.

Bucky's stare was icy, causing the other man to jump slightly. It was as if he didn't wish for the moment to be interrupted. She tucked that information, as well as the overwhelming realization of what his scent meant, away to deal with after the ceremony.

Y/n could barely focus on the words the officiant was saying. The religious component of weddings had never truly interested her. After a while, they were coming close to the end of their vows,

"...through sickness and health, to love and to cherish, until death do you part? The officiant asked.

"I do" Bucky responded, with so much certainty it startled Y/n.

"And you, Y/n' he prompted, "do you promise to take James through sickness and health, to love and to cherish, until death do you part?"

The arrangement between them was to broker peace between two confrontational tribes, a marriage made for her on behalf of her parents and his mother. He was older than her by maybe 10 years or so, having just ascended, becoming the Alpha of his pack when his father died. She met his gaze, feeling suddenly, for the first time as if she had a choice. It was something in the open way he was looking at her that made her feel as if she could trust him, as if she didn't need, let anyone want, to run anymore.
