My Hope/Heidi Jones
Hope I couldn’t speak, I couldn’t move. I just looked into her eyes as tears streamed down my face. “I had just found out I was pregnant the day before. We were going to tell Delilah and her husband the good news that night. I never got the chance to do it. I couldn’t stay there. The memories and the pain would be too much. I know I was a coward to run away. It was all just so overwhelming. I needed to go back home, to my family.” “I tried to contact you, but you never responded. I went to your dorm, and they told me you had left. Then your number was disconnected. I even tried to get in touch with your parents, but they never returned my calls.” Delilah told my mom through tears. “I know, I was a horrible friend when you needed me the most. I should never have left. I was devastated and confused. I went through the most horrible pain. I’m sure you felt the same way, but worse

Noah Kingston Mom and I stayed up for hours to talk after they left. Never in a million years did I think that this would be the explanation for our connection. I was planning on meeting her dad, figuring out who he was, and then going from there. Her Dad was going to be the key to the puzzle of Hope. But no, it was her mom. Auntie Tempie, as I used to call her. I missed her for a long time. So did Mom. We never really found out what happened to her. She obviously had a baby, got married and changed her name. That sure does explain a lot. And Hope had no idea about any of it. How could Tempie keep such a pivotal part of her life hidden for so long? It must have been killing her. We actually considered that as a possibility.Now that I know who Hope is, I am even more drawn to her. She is something special, down to her DNA. It makes total sense that I can’t stop our connection from growing so strong, so fast. The connection started befor

Hope I’m still reeling from all the revelations tonight. Dad was pretty quiet on the way home. I don’t know how he feels about learning Mom lost the love of her life. She came into my room and gave me a big hug. I didn’t know what to say to ease her pain. I had no idea she went through all of that. Not long after getting home, I started feeling the headache come back. Am I having an allergic reaction to something in this house? Maybe there is mold in the walls. I decide to get some fresh air on my balcony. I step out into the cool night. I take a deep breath. I swear I can smell Noah. It calms me. I should just stay out here tonight. Too bad it’s winter. I look up at the beautiful moon. It’s full. I have always loved looking at the moon. I feel a sense of peace. My mind still won’t settle. I can’t stop thinking about the memory book Delilah has with photos of my biological father. I need

Hope Okay, I believe in true love and all that. But a Soul Mate? One person who was made, just for you. That is a little farfetched for me. Is Mom going to go along with this? She doesn’t speak. She just looks intently at Delilah. “Think about it Tempest. How many times did he call you that? I know he told you just how important you were to him. He was adamant about it. He made it clear that you were the only one for him.” Mom nods her head. Still thinking about what she is hearing. Deciding if it was true. “My husband was my Soul Mate. It’s a very special bond. Stronger than any other. When you find your Mate, you are drawn to them immediately. You can’t avoid it. You need to be near that person. The more time you spend with them, the closer you get. The more powerful the bond will be.” Delilah goes on to explain. We are both listening intently. “Do you re

Noah I have never been so nervous in my life. What if she decides that this is just too much for her? Hope looks scared. Maybe even mad. I’m not sure. Tempie seems to be remembering the things her and Raiden experienced. I think she knows what’s coming next for us. But I don’t know how she really feels about me and her daughter being together. “…It gets better.” Mom told her. “When?” Mom and Tempest excused themselves from the room. Hope sit’s attentively on the couch in front of me. I want to reach out and hold her hand. But I’m going to try and resist. I want her to tell me it’s okay, after we have a serious talk. “Hope, I want you to know that you already mean more to me than anything or anyone. You are my Soul Mate, my reason to live. I have waited to meet you for so long. When I saw you, I couldn’t believe how beautiful and bri

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

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

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
