All Chapters of My Hope: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

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,

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

Noah  “Hope, I love you with all my heart.” I tell her while holding her soft, beautiful face in my hand. I look her in the eyes and hope her response will be the same. I just wait.  She smiles. “Noah, I love you too. I never knew that I could feel like this. You are everything to me.” She tells me honestly. I pull her back to my chest and hold her tight. I am so happy at this moment. I have my Soul Mate, in my arms, and she loves me. I am feeling this electricity running through me from our connection. It’s amazing. I don’t even have words to explain it. How will I not touch her all the time so that I can feel these amazing tingles. It’s exhilarating and soothing at the same time. I will only have this feeling with her.  After I hold her for a little longer, we go put the picnic basket back in the car. Then we drive to a different part of the park. We hike for a little while. I hold her hand the entire time. I

Noah    “Thank you everyone for coming. I am so honored to welcome my Mate, and your Luna to our pack tonight. Over the next few weeks, we will be training her. I hope that some of you can participate in helping with that. She will be 18 very soon and will undergo the change. I would like to invite you all to attend her transformation. It will be a day of celebration!”  Those gathered applaud and cheer. “Because she has been unfamiliar with our customs her entire life, I would appreciate if you continue to honor her by showing her consideration and understanding as her life changes drastically.  I know that she will be an unbelievably caring and devoted Luna.   Our union ceremony date is yet to be determined. I know this is unusual for an Alpha to not claim his Luna right away, but extenuating circumstances have changed things a little in our case. You may not know that Hope is currently one of my students.

Noah    I have been running to Hopes house every night at around 1:00 a.m.  That seems to be as long as I can stand the separation. She comes outside every time. We can definitely sense one another more now. I stay in my wolf form. I don’t think her parents know about the late-night visits. She comes out with shoes and a coat on every time now.  She put a large blanket on the swing that sits on her back porch. We sit there every night with my warm form around hers. She pets my fur soothingly. Sometimes she talks to me about things she normally wouldn’t. Sometimes she simply falls asleep. Either way, I enjoy the closeness I get to experience with my Soul Mate.   She has been doing really well in training. I’m proud of her. She is getting stronger every day. I hope her transition will be as smooth as possible. I will be with her the entire day, in order to help her and comfort her. It is this Friday, and we a
