Hope
Did I hear that right? My Father was her teacher? Okay, I need to process this. Her teacher was her Soul Mate. They dated. They marked each other as theirs. And they got pregnant with me. How did they manage that, without anyone finding out? That must have been crazy. I need to take some pointers from Mom. Lol.
“What?” I asked. “We can talk about that later sweetie. I will tell you everything. I promise. You need to know what you are up against.” She assured me. Alright. This is very strange. I don’t think Dad is going to be as accepting as Mom. And I’m also younger than she was. Not by much though.
“Hope, Soul Mates are bound to each other, no matter the obstacles. Our people don’t let things like that stand in our way. We are on your side one hundred percent. Don’t worry. We will help you with all the logistics. You need to spend time together

Hope Okay, alright. Noah just told me I’m a werewolf. I need to calm down. My breathing and heart rate have increased. Noah just got a little closer. That isn’t really helping. I’m freaking out. Werewolves aren’t real. I can’t be a werewolf. This isn’t happening. I think I may be hyperventilating. Am I going to pass out? Don’t pass out Hope, I tell myself. “Hope, love, relax.” I hear the rumble of a very calming voice. I take a big breath. I smell him and start to relax just a little.“How can that be true?” I ask. “Hope, I know it sounds very farfetched. But I’m telling you the truth. I would not lie to you.” He tells me. “We don’t run around like animals all day. We actually don’t do it often at all. We live regular lives like everyone else. We just have the ability to transform into wolves. We will help you when you turn 18.”&n
My Hope 18
Hope Alpha. He’s the Alpha. I understand the concept. He’s the leader. The man in charge. But what does it entail? I have a million more questions. I stopped walking as soon as he said that. I assume he realizes I want an explanation. “Okay, so I will just briefly explain.” He says. “My Dad was the previous Alpha. My Mom is the Luna. When Dad was killed, his first in charge took over the position until I could. He taught me everything I needed to know. His name is Knox. He was little older than Dad. He’s very trustworthy and he would risk his life for anyone in our pack.” So, when did you take over?” “Five years ago, when I turned 18. Normally, I would have been older, but under the circumstances, I did it after I changed into my wolf. He still helps me with things since I work outside of the community. And our pack is so small that I don’t need to do as much as some other Alpha
My Hope 19
Hope I have never met a man as kind, even tempered, and reasonable as my Dad. But even he had a little problem with our story. He asked so many questions that we really didn’t have the answers to. And yet, he has accepted that I will be dating my teacher and one day leaving to go live with wolves. He may not be happy about it, but he did eventually give me his blessing. And that means so much to me. We explained the need to be close to one another. He wants the best for me and doesn’t want me to suffer. So, he agreed to me spending more time with Noah. But I don’t think he will be letting me move in, just yet. Mom and I are both relieved that he is so understanding. Dad does want to speak to Noah privately and to see the whole wolf thing with his own eyes. Mom wants to see it too. So. we will all go over there soon and have another dinner together. By the time we finished that exceptionally long conversation, I was feeling ex

Noah I think Hopes introduction to my wolf went really well last night. He wanted to run and play with her and smell and lick her. But I made him understand that she would be in more pain if we did that. So, he kept his distance. But he was definitely drawn to her. He seemed as protective as me. That’s good. You want your wolf to be on the same page as you. I had no doubt he would be. He has been wanting me to take wolf form in front of her for the past week, so he could meet her properly. I was so glad that I could pick her up and spend a little time with her before class. This separation is no joke. I felt like crap until I pulled up in front of her house. I wish I could take that pain away from her. But we have to wait until she’s 18. She walks outside and I can already smell her. My reaction to her is so powerful now. It grows every day. I have to keep my wolf from coming out. He’s as excited to see her as I am.&n
My Hope 21
Hope I ride home with Noah. The boys take their car. I hope no one sees us. Maybe I should be riding with the twins. But I really want to stay right where I am. It was a good day. We spent as much time together as we possibly could. It definitely helps. I have been thinking about something for a while now. I heard the story of Raiden, my Father, being killed. Along with Noah’s father. Then the boys said I need to learn self-defense. No one has said who killed my father or why. And could the same thing happen to Noah? I still have lots of questions. At Noah’s house, we enter the kitchen to a spread of food. “Eat up everyone.” Delilah says. I am starving. “You need to eat a lot more right before you change, so you are probably hungrier than usual.” Noah tells me. Well, that explains that. “So, are there any other changes I should know about?” I ask everyo

Noah All night I worried about what I would do if anyone ever tried to take Hope. It was a fear I had since Dad was killed. But now that I know her, and love her, I am even more concerned. I have to do everything I can to ensure her safety. I’m exhausted and miserable by the time I get into my car. Picking her up is a savior to me. This beautiful person walks out of the house and sits next to me. She is everything. Her smile is like a ray of sunlight. My heart starts beating faster, just at the sight of her. “Good morning love. Did you sleep alright?” I asked. “Not, really, but I feel better now.” She admits. “I might have to start running by your house in the middle of the night. Would you like that?” “Do you think it will make a difference? I don’t want you to have to go to any trouble for me.” She says. “It might. It’s worth a try. If I’m awake anyway,
My Hope 23
Hope I think Dad regretted his question the moment he said it. “I mean, not that you two should start touching each other. I just wondered if it would make any difference at this point.” I see Mom laughing a little behind her hand. Noah’s face is blank. I believe he is thinking that he should have just been touching me all along. I feel the same way. Now I’m a little irritated with myself for not just going for it. I overheard Noah explaining to Dad how much he cares about me. This werewolf hearing really comes in handy sometimes. Okay, maybe I was listening in on purpose, just a little. It really meant a lot to me. I teared up just a little bit. I think Delilah knew what I was doing. She gave me one of her sweet smiles. “Well, Mr. Christianson, I will respect your wishes and not get any closer to Hope until she turns 18, if that is what you decide is right.” &ldqu
My Hope 24
Noah I am mesmerized by Hope as I listen to her open her heart to me and my wolf. I want to hold her. But I am going to wait. She is the most gorgeous creature I have ever seen. Her heart and soul are beautiful. How was I so fortunate to be blessed with her as my Mate? I know she is cold out here. I am in my fur, so I will be okay. Once she is quiet for a while, I get up and walk over to her sliding door that leads to the kitchen. She follows. “Do you think I should go in?” She asks. I nod my head. “Thank you for coming Noah. I will see you soon.” She waves and I run home. Maybe I can sleep now. The week goes by without any problems or surprises. I go to her yard every night and watch over her house for at least an hour. She usually comes out to see me. I think she wakes up when I arrive. I don’t text her first anymore. She just appears. I know it helps the separation sickness. She always thanks me for it. I am doing it for m
