His Only Hope 30. Falling for Her
Bryan This morning was a complete dream come true. I suppose sleeping next eachother had made her want to see if those past life dreams were a fluke or not. Honestly I had been wondering the same, but when she started kissing on my chest this morning, I knew that feeling her body against mine would be just as pleasurable as it had been in those dreams. She was like a goddess underneath me, and I couldn't get enough. The noises she made, the way her silky smooth skin felt against mine, the way she tasted, it was all even more than I had hoped it would be. She was incredible and it all felt as like a dream. As I pulled the sleigh out of the basement of the cabin I couldn't help but to feel an incredible amount of anxiety as though I were waiting for the other shoe to drop. How long would it be before she was pushing me away again, or she decided she regretted what had transpired between us this morning. Honestly I wasn't sure I could take her pulling away from me now. I needed her as

Josie The entire packhouse stopped and stared. I knew it was because they were shocked to see their Alpha Prince with a human girl, but I didn't care. They would have stared regardless of whether I had my power or not. Supernaturals always do. So I lifted my head as though I was the most powerful supernatural being in the world and smiled because I knew that I was. Bryan grabbed my hand as if he thought that knowing I was with him would stop them from staring. I let him, but I knew better. Between my best-selling book and the fact that I appeared human, they were going to stare regardless. So let them stare. This was the first time I'd been around this many werewolves in several lifetimes, probably since the very first one that I could remember, the one I was currently getting glimpses of in my dreams. The werewolves didn't know how powerful I truly was because none of them had ever been around me before, nor had their ancestors, at least not as the powerful witch qu

Bryan I let her think she was surprising me with the information about the Alpha, because the look on her face when she said it was just too adorable, like she was trying to surprise me. I also didn't want her to know I had listened in on a private conversation of hers. Then she just started rambling, honestly I think she was talking to herself more than the rest of us as she went on about Marisol's cancer and her cheating on Mateo with his mentor. I could see the wheels turning in her mind as it all started making sense to her, so I just let her continue on rambling. My parents and sister were pretty shocked by the things she revealed, but I was just in awe of her. When she got up to go to the restroom everyone began looking to me, as if I was the ancient witch soul with all the answers. "So, your new bride and your newest Alpha? How are feeling about that?" My sister quipped curiously, knowing how territorial I can be. "It was a long time ago. He has his mate and she's moved on

Josie After dinner we retreated back to the sanctuary of the cabin. I got out of the sleigh and unhooked Andu from it, but as I went to hand him Bryan's clothes he nudged my hand that had been bleeding all evening for me to open it. When I did, he licked it several times, the feeling sending electric tingles deep into my body, all the way to my bones. I felt almost high from the feeling of euphoria spreading through my body from his tongue. I stumbled backwards, dropping his clothes to the ground as I caught myself on the sleigh with my free hand. I was attempting to collect myself as Bryan shifted back almost instantly to ensure I was OK. But, as I watched him stand up, stark naked, the high returned, sending the tingles that had been invading every cell in my body straight to my core. I sucked my bottom lip in involuntarily, as I stared at his muscularly toned body. I had never needed anything so badly in my life. "Hey, you alright?" He asked me as he walked towards me. I coul
Last Updated : 2024-10-29His Only Hope 1. An Alliance Proposal
Bryan I stepped off the plane into the humid Louisiana heat, already dreading what was to come. I had been dreading this day for two weeks now, ever since the Vampire King, Gerald, had suggested that we seek the help of the witches in our war against the demons. The witches were the only supernatural faction ever known to defeat the demons, and though that was almost 200 years ago, King Gerald had told us that their Queen had only gotten more powerful with every reincarnation since. We had been in alliance with the Vampires for five years now, attempting to protect ourselves and our packs from the demon invasion. The Vampires had great weapons to aid us in fighting them off, but there was only so much they could do. Their weapons had been made in the 1800s by the witches during the first demon war that had come to the US. They had targeted the Witches and Vampires back then, but this time they were targeting us Wolves. So, we were here, in the witch capital of the country, to ask f

Josie I chugged the rest of my drink before handing the glass to the attendant that came to collect it before the jet started its landing. I wasn't normally a nervous flyer, but this destination brought out my anxiety something fierce. I should be in London, enjoying the next two weeks with a very handsome vampire and an adorable witch couple, but just after I'd processed all the items we brought back from our dig, the Dean of Divinity had called to tell me that there was an occult museum in New Orleans that wanted an expert consultation from me on an artifact that had been unearthed in the renovation of one of the older buildings. Perhaps if I was a normal archeologist, and not an occult specialist, I wouldn't be so nervous. But, I am an archeological occult specialist who knows that New Orleans is the witch capital of the country. Granted, none of the witches I had ever met had been unkind to me, but after the incident I had with a werewolf a few months ago, I was extremely on edge
Last Updated : 2024-10-29His Only Hope 3. The Proposal
Josie I walked downstairs to the kitchen to see my mom, My aunt Kara, and my three cousins, Wren, Gwen and Quinn sitting at the breakfast bar. They all turned to look at me and I couldn't help but to notice how beautiful my cousins had become over the past 13 years. Wren and Gwen had been the ones that help my aunt Kara and my sister in law, Abby, steal my memories from me, and I could see their guilt in the way they couldn't even look me in the eyes. I didn't say anything to them as I stalked towards the coffee pot to make myself some coffee. My head was pounding from the amount of dark liquor I had drank the day before, and having 2 and half lifetime's worth of memories shoved back into my mind as I slept didn't help either. I reached up and opened the mug cabinet, knowing this house like the back of hand now that my memories had been returned, and pulled a mug down before pouring myself a cup of the hot, dark goodness. I took a sip of it to awaken my senses before walking out o
Last Updated : 2024-10-29His Only Hope 4. The Queen's Exile
Bryan We had flown back to New Orleans only 2 weeks after I had agreed to marry and mate the Queen of the Witches. Apparently she had agreed to the marriage as well, yet something still wasn't sitting right with me. I wanted to meet her, so that we both knew and understood what this pairing meant for our people, but the Queen Regent insisted that I meet with her at our hotel for lunch, before meeting the Queen at a dinner she would host later in the evening. She knocked on our suite door just minutes after 12. She was early which only set me more on edge about why she was choosing to meet us here. Our last encounter she had ensured was on her home turf, and though this was still her city, we had the top three floors outfitted with our guard detail. My father opened the door to her and a red head witch that looked old enough to be her mother, and let them both into the suite. I noticed they were both dressed casually, the red head witch was wearing a a bright red romper that boaste

His Only Hope 29. Hope for the Future
Josie Once we were away from the house I found it easier to just relax and go with the flow. Cuddling with Bryan all night just felt right, and honestly, I hadn't slept that well in quite a long time. Ofcourse we both had a past life dream sleeping next to eachother. This one was of us ravishing eachother all night, and I couldn't help but to wake up hornier than I've ever been. It didn't help that I could feel his rock hard cock pressed against me, and although I wanted to fight it, I wanted him more than I had ever wanted anything. I knew that there was no chance of me winning this battle with myself, so I didn't even try. Instead I allowed my body to take the lead, and I allowed my hips to grind against him as I began kissing my way up his bare chest to his neck. He murmured softly underneath me as he slowly woke up from my kisses. When he finally came completely to, I felt as his breath hitched in his throat while I ran my tongue over his collar bone. It only took him a moment
His Only Hope 28. Contentment
Bryan Alpha Colin and my father took Carter to the cells as Josie started frying the beignets. While they were gone and Josie was occupied with her cooking, I took the time to explain to my mother, my sister, and her father in law what had happened to Josie all those years ago. I explained to them that it had her husband Chris that had saved her life that night and that was how they had met. My sister immediately began to wonder if Carter had ever hurt her pup, so I consoled her the best I could before reminding her that Carter would never hurt anyone else. My dad and Colin came back just in time, as Josie brought out the plate of freshly fried beignets. She apologized to everyone for the events of the evening, and promised everyone that once the storm cleared she would have the witches come up and she would be able to show them exactly what happened that night, even though she often did her best to forget it ever happened. I didn't know if I would be able to stomach seeing how he
His Only Hope 27. Guilty as Charged
Josie We had a quick tour of the packhouse before Bryan's family led us up to the cabin we would be staying at. We unloaded everything from the truck and began unpacking the groceries and making ourselves comfortable. I invited everyone up to have dinner with us since their Omegas were busy in the kitchen prepping for the holiday feast. They happily agreed to have dinner with us, so I told them to give me a couple hours to cook. After looking through the food I had gotten for the weekend I decided to make Cajun meat pies with spicy Brussel sprouts and a sweet and spicy sauce. As Bryan unpacked our bags I began preparing dinner for everyone. I honestly had always felt at home in the kitchen, I just hadn't cooked anything since Chris died. It had felt pointless to cook for only myself, especially since my favorite part about making a home cooked meal was sharing it with the people I cared about. But now I had plenty of people to cook for, so I was more than happy to do so. The more in
His Only Hope 26. Acceptance
Bryan Sammie being here was exactly the comfort I didn't know I needed. It gave me hope that this alliance marriage could be turned around, and that maybe there was hope for my future after all. Josie had expressed that she wasn't ready to move past her grief, and I could respect that for her. I just prayed to the moon Goddess that when she finally decided that she was ready, she would want to move on with me, rather than anyone else. Sammie seemed confident that she would, which also gave me hope that we actually had a future together. When Olivia left Wednesday morning it was rough for Josie and I. Once again we were both saying goodbye to our best friends and the people we thought we would share our lives with. I was quite surprised when she turned around to face me after Olivia left and asked me what our plans were for Thanksgiving. Though I suppose that knowing that Sammie and Chris were, even if we couldn't see them helped quite a bit. I hadn't bothered to make an
His Only Hope 25. Wishes of the Dead
Josie I wasn't sure what to say after all of Sammie's revelations. It was obvious to me that Chris had told her why I was afraid of Bryan's wolf, and even more obvious that the Alpha Prince was ashamed of me knowing that he wouldn't survive my rejection. I knew I needed to say something but I just didn't even know where to start. "Well, I am going to let the four of you speak privately and go get settled into my room." Olivia stated as she stood to leave the table. I nodded at her before looking back towards Bryan who was now staring intently at me. He was expecting me to say something, but for the first time in a long time, I was lost. I didn't want to talk about what had happened to me all those years ago, not now, not ever. I had managed to bury it deep away until his wolf had made an appearance, but even now I was doing my best to work through that. I didn't want to fear werewolves, especially now that I knew that I couldn't reject the Alpha Prince. "Josie, it's OK. You don'
