Rain pelted down into the thick pine forests, forming little streams as it ran from the roof of the small log cabin to collect in puddles on the muddy ground. Sam picked up her pace, the blankets in her arms clutched against her chest. Mud squished under her feet.
During the past few months she’d forgotten how hostile the climate in Antarctica could be. Icy rain showers, strong crisp winds blowing over from the nearby ocean, and of course much too short days with way too little sunshine.
She hurried up the three wooden steps to the front door of the cabin and ripped it open. Thank God, they’d finished building the first log cabins today. Those cabins would at least provide more resilient shelter against the gusts of wind and the cold temperatures.
She pulled the door shut behind her and shook the water from her arms. They’d moved mattresses and bedsheets in first thing that morning, so at least their bed would be dry.

Sam glanced at herself in the oversized mirror and took a deep breath. Her fingers clutched the thin satin of her lilac dress, and she had to force herself to relax them. For the first time in ages she was wearing a dress. Maybe she shouldn’t have cut her hair again. Long hair would have gone better with the elegantly flowing waterfall of satin that started right under her breasts. She adjusted the lacy straps.
Almost time. She blew out a slow stream of air. Would Jack show up? Or had he changed his mind? Her stomach tightened. He wouldn’t change his mind, would he?

Jack tensed as Sam grabbed the back of the kitchen chair and paled. He prepared himself for the vague chance she’d faint, ridiculous as the idea seemed. She wasn’t a woman to faint. At least she didn’t appear to be.
She stared at the engagement contract on her open palm. “Jack, what…what are you doing?”
His stomach tightened, but he still managed a smirk. “I think it’s customary you at least take it.” God, she wouldn’t decline, would she? Maybe it was too early. Maybe he should have talked to her first. Or at least done some recon. After all, she’d been opposed to a marriage with him before.
Her fingers trembled visibly and she bit her lower lip, still unmoving.
He swallowed hard. “Just think about it. No pressure, okay?”
She pulled the chair away from the table and sank down on it. Still no word, but now she looked seriously petrified. What the hell was going on?
She’d accepted Faxon’s proposal, so why couldn’t she accept his? Jealousy gnawed at him. Did she still have doubts after everything? “Look, Carter, it’s just an idea. We don’t have to marry or anything if you’d rather—”
