The Alpha's Bride—Jacob + OC

Jacob Black was forced into a position of power when he first started phasing. Now he's been an Alpha to the La Push wolf pack for almost twelve years, and almost everyone on the reservation are hoping that he'll get married and produce an heir to the wolf pack and to the tribe.

Almost everybody on the reservation (at least those "in the know") still believe that having an imprint (or even just a wife) is essential to continuing the legacy of the Quileute heritage. Jacob, on the other hand, is still suffering from having his heart broken by a woman who left him for a vampire. On one night, Jacob and all of the guys from the pack heads to Las Vegas to celebrate a bachelor party for one of his pack brothers. What he didn't expect was that he would end up getting married to a girl that he not only just met the first night...but who is also his imprint.

Sara Carnegie comes from a well-off family from New York, but made a move to Washington to study teaching and hoping to work with children with special needs. She went through a bad break-up, and immediately put her heart and soul into her studies. Her friends, however, wanted to take her to Vegas to get her mind off of everything and to live life. What Sara never expected was to marry a complete stranger, and wake up in bed with him the next morning.

Sara wants an annulment, but Jacob wants more time with his imprint. With reluctance, Sara agrees to take her classes online and move with Jacob to La Push to at least make their marriage work for the next six months of it.

Could Sara love Jacob for who he is, or will she run the moment she discovers the truth?

I apologize for this chapter being short, but I have wonderful things to say. I want to thank everyone for their wonderful reviews, and as a result, I'm posting another chapter already. So, you'll have two chapters (or more) in one week!

I want to put all of my focus into this story, but I am also trying to work on some other stories as well. So, I'm posting at the end of the chapter some of the stories that I am working on as well, and if you're interested in one or any of them, please send me a message and tell me what you think. I will still continue this story, but I just want to know what everyone else thinks of any more new stories.

Thank you very much and enjoy, Tessa Anne

Chapter 13

Jacob's POV

The week ended, and now we were on a plane, heading for Seattle. We decided to just "date," and not push our relationship too far again. We're married, yes, but because we hardly know much about each other, we agreed to take it one day at a time. I'll admit that yes, I want to sleep with her almost all the time. Actually, I should say making love to her, but when you're a werewolf, especially an alpha, you're constantly horny all the time.

I had to hold in all of the intense feelings I had for Sara, because I care too much about her to even hurt her. I know that part of the reason for not sleeping with her that night was because of what Sam said, but I know that I have strong feelings for her. I know I love her, but I guess I'm afraid of losing her like I lost Bella. But, I'm now beginning to realize that there's more to Sara than what meets the eyes.

For one thing, Sara is strong and caring. I saw the way she was with Claire when she tried reading with her, and how she was with my nephew and with Sam's son and Jared's two girls, and I could see her being a wonderful mother to our child in the near future. Mind you that I never spoke them outloud to her, but Embry and Quil knows that I want a family someday, but I never pictured who it would be...until Sara.

Another thing I love about her is how much she wants to learn about my culture and my people. Hearing some of the legends (minus the story of the Third Wife and Taha Aki) of my tribe from my father and myself, Sara wanted to learn more. One day, I took her to the Quileute Preservation Center to show her some of the artifacts that we've held onto for generations, and already she loved it. I even bought a book for her about the legends, even though she hasn't gotten it yet.

I want to wait to tell her the truth until she admits her feelings for me. I believe she's falling for me, and though I haven't told her yet about my feelings, I just know that she loves me in some way. I'm just waiting for the day when she finally says that she wants to be with me and that she loves me. If I do tell her too soon, I just hope she'll accepts it.

We were seated on the plane, and we were almost another hour away from Seattle. Sitting by one of the windows, I turned to Sara who looked pretty nervous. I took her hand and asked, "What's wrong?"

She looked at me and replied, "I don't know, I'm just nervous about you coming to Seattle with me. I know it's more fast-paced than what you're used to, and I don't know if you'll like it."

"Hey, wherever you are, I'll enjoy every second of it."

"How are you so sure?"

"Because it's you; you make everything exciting." I said with confidence. She smiled at me, as she leaned in to kiss my cheek, but I moved to kiss her fully on the lips. She was out of breath when I pulled away, but her smile widened, as she leaned her head on my shoulder. I stroke my thumb over her wedding ring, which too be honest, I kinda didn't like. I didn't even like my own wedding ring either, and they turned both of our fingers green constantly. I knew that when we arrived to Seattle, that I was going to find a perfect wedding rings for the both of us. She deserved nothing but the best.

We finally landed in Seattle, and after finding our luggages, we got in a taxi and headed toward Sara's apartment. Looking outside the window of the cab, I could see why Sara wanted to leave New York to study in Seattle. Both places were beautiful, but Seattle was "The Emerald City." Lots of light, and the streets were bustling with lots of people. Some stores already had some Christmas displays when it's not even Halloween, but overall, I liked it.

We got to Sara's apartment complex, and I have to say, it was not what I pictured. It was in a young, lively neighborhood, but walking inside, I cannot imagine Sara coming from a wealthy family. The inside of it was simple, maybe earthy-looking. Honestly, I didn't know how else to describe it, except that she was not what I imagined her to be. Sara and I carried the luggages into the bedroom, and as she showed me around, I realized that she was nothing like her family at all. She was like the black sheep in the family, wanting to move on with her life and living a simple lifestyle. But, she enjoys the city life, and is open to living anywhere else, even if it was the reservation.

"So, what do you think?" Sara asked me, as she started to make dinner. I stared at her for a moment (possible a long one) when she turned and noticed. "What?"

Gathering up the courage within me, I walked around the island and took her in my arms. Pressing my lips against her, Sara stopped what she was doing and moved her fingers through my short hair. The scratches of her nails excited me, as I lifted her onto the counter, kissing her more fully. Our tongues met in a frantic kiss, and each kiss left both of us wanting more. I could smell the pot boiling, so without pulling away from Sara, I leaned over to turn the stove down a bit. Sara pulled away slightly, pressing her forehead against mines so she could catch her breath. Giggling softly, Sara asked me, "What was that for?"

"Honestly, I'm not sure. I guess seeing where you live, I realized how similar we are, and though I don't know you well enough and you don't know me, a part of me thinks that there's something there. Can't you feel it too?"

Sara nodded, causing the wolf in me to yip away. Looking down at her ring, and at mines resting on her thigh, I took both of them off and threw them in the trash. "Jacob! What are you doing?!"

"If we're going to be married, we deserve to start over."

"What do you mean?"

"I'm willing to take a chance on us, so tomorrow, I want us to go ring shopping. You deserve to have the wedding ring you want, and I want to get one for you."

"You're really serious about this marriage, aren't you?" She asked.

Pressing a soft kiss against her pouty lips, I spoke in a rough, husky voice, "I'm dead serious about us. So, what do you say?"...

7. "The Eight Queens of Tudor England," a Prince Edward x OC fanfic. (Tudors)

Edward Tudor, only male heir of King Henry VIII by his third wife, Jane Seymour, is now King of England. Instead of telling the story of Edward himself, and what would happen if he lived on for many years instead of having three women fight for the right to the crown, it would be told in the views of the women Edward married. Some were for alliances and naval protection, others for love and comfort. Only one survived in his last moments as King, while others have had their downfalls in different ways, either through divorce, execution, or sudden deaths. Each marriage gave Edward something in return, but the only way to find out is to read through the eyes of the eight queens of England.

So, this is the list, and please, let me know what you think.
