Chapter Three
A few weeks passed, and Will was more than pleased with his soon-to-be wife. She was a good woman with a pleasant demeanor and a love for the church. Her eyes lit up the first Sunday morning service they'd went to. By the time that first service came around, they were wed. Rebekah insisted in a quiet ceremony, and Will was pleased with her modesty. Moving to Montana and investing in the ranch ate into most of Will’s savings, and he didn’t have much money for an extravagant wedding.
Everyone in their little town seemed just as impressed by Rebekah as Will was. The children loved her, and the men all congratulated him on finding such a fine wife. She was quick to make friends with most of the other wives, many of whom were also mail-order brides.
Rebekah seemed relieved that there were women just like her. She'd admitted that she was afraid she would be an outcast among the wives because of the fact that she was a mail-order bride.
Many women in the cities saw being a mail-order bride something to be ashamed of. It often meant that you weren't able to find a husband in your own town. In the West, however, the business of mail-order brides was a necessary one and easily understood by the town folk. None of the women who'd traveled to Montana from other cities were seen as less pure or unworthy of a husband.
Will never considered this before and was truly surprised that so many women in the cities were so opposed to the trade. This was a wonderful opportunity for some women who didn't have any other options. Even though he didn't understand it, he was happy to see that her fears were unfounded and the other women liked her.
The only person in town who didn't like Rebekah was a woman by the name of Mary-Anne. Everyone reckoned Mary-Anne didn't care for Rebekah because she fancied Will. She was married to one of the older men in town and was clearly unhappy with God's plan for her. Mary-Anne clearly did not care about her sacred vows to Peter because she was often seen running around town with much younger, self-righteous men. She considered herself above God's law, and for that reason, she was an outcast within the town.
Mary-Anne tried many times to draw Will away from his path and did everything she could to tempt him. Will never fell for it because of the strength that came from prayer. It was a sin to covet his neighbor’s wife, and Will was not a man who sinned freely.
Rebekah now had what Mary-Anne wanted for so long, and that didn't sit well with the tall, dark haired woman. Mary-Anne was a beautiful woman but that beauty just hadn't been enough to convince Will to fall in love with her. Now the man she'd desired so badly was married to a beautiful young woman who he'd surely fall in love with. Rebekah seemed to be perfect—seemed to be, anyway.
