Chapter 4
POV: Hope
I'm currently on the jet headed back to New Orleans. I'm drawing in my sketch pad a picture of Noah. I really really like him, maybe even love him but I don't want to thing that far ahead right now. like is good. its safe. safe is good. safe is safe. I think I'll always be scared of being hurt again but I'm willing to try and take the risk. Noah makes me happy. the jet hits some turbulence causing me to jolt out of my thoughts. I'm about half way done with my drawing so I set it aside and I'm a little hungry so I grab a blood bag from my bag and begin to drink from it. I check my phone to see what time it is and its 10:30 am. I have about an hour more till I land. its a little over two hour flight to New Orleans. when I get home the first stop I make is to cafe du monde. love me some beingets. I decide to pick my drawing up and continue to draw my portrait of Noah. my phone begins to vibrate so I set it down and then notice Its now 11:00. which means I now have about forty five minutes till I'm home. I have text from Lizzie.
Lizzie. OMG can u believe her . she's back..
Hope. who? whats wrong??
Lizzie. Alyssa!!!! why is she back? she arrives here tonight.
Hope. IDK . but that is odd.. i thought she swore to never come back..
Lizzie. IKR. and wat about MG and Jed. I won't let her have MG back. hes with me now.
Hope. have u talked 2 MG about this?? cuz u should.
Lizzie. IK I haven't yet but I will. promise.
Hope. I hope so. and about Alyssa IDK we will find that out later. ok
Lizzie. ok
Why the hell would Alyssa be comeing back? she swore she'd never come back. I don't know why but something feels off. I've had this feeling for months now like something is coming. I don't know what but I can't be good. maybe its just instinct or something. with the package and the texts it all has me worried. "someone I know" who would I have met to do this or what did I do for this to be happening. hmm...
the pilot announces that we will be landing in about fifteen minutes and to buckle up. I do as instructed. I also pack my thing back into my bag so can just grab it and go. I am so ready to be home. this will be the first Christmas as far as I can remember where we're all together. except my parents and other that are lost of course. oh, how I wish they could be here but they're not. at least they're at peace now anyway.
The jet finally lands. I grab my bag and get off the plane. Marcel is outside with a car waiting for me to drive me to the compound. " hey" I greet him. he smiles and embraces me into a hug which I return and smile back. " before we get to the compound I need to stop somewhere " I tell Marcel. " where are we stopping kiddo? " he asks me i tell him cafe du monde. he laughs at me. he knows how much I love beingets. he put my bags in the back of the car and then we get in and drive off. I sent a text to Noah, telling him I've landed and home now. As I finish sending it I have a smile on just thinking about him makes me happy. maybe one day I'll bring him here to meet my family. " what are you smiling over there for" Marcel says startling me out of thought. " Noah. I sent him a text." I tell him. " whos Noah?" he asked me. thats right I haven't told my family about Noah yet. I smile even wider and tell him " oh, he's my boyfriend. we've be dating for about two months now. " " well it looks like your happy. " " I am. he makes my happy. can I ask you som... never mind I'll ask auntie rebekah " I tell him. he jut nods.
we finally get to the compound. Marcel grabs two of my bag and I grab the third one. now inside I'm greeted by aunt freya and keelin. we exchange hellos and a little small talk. after few minutes of that I head up stairs with my bag while Marcel has already put the other two in my room.
It's now dinner time. everyone is seated at the dining table eating and talking. some real family bonding, right? "so hope marcel tells me you have a new boyfriend. whats he like?" aunt rebekah ask me. I give marcel a playfull glare and smile. " well his name is Noah. he's very sweet. also a werewolf. he has a twin sister Ava. " I tell the table. "well its seem he makes you happy. I mean you haven't stopped s.ile the entire time talking about him" auntie freya says. "he really does" I respond. "well I suppose you'll have to bring him here some time for us to meet him. " auntie rebekah says. I take my phone out and show them a picture of him. " oh, he's cute. " keelin says. I nod yes. " hmm, he seems familiar. are you sure I haven't met him yet. " aunt rebekah asks. I give her a confused look " No we've only been together for two months now. " she nods but still has this look like she's trying to place him. I decide to continue to tell them more about him. " well anyway, turns out Noah is the last .. well last along with his twin, Ava of the asipi werewolf and tribe bloodline. also his dad turns out to be Tyler Lockwood. " after I say that they all look shocked. I tell them the rest of it. how he found out what he is, who his dad is, and how he grew up not know his dad and everything else. " well, now I know why he looks so familiar. I knew Tyler " aunt rebekah says. " so what has been going on with you guys? anything new?" I ask them. "kol and I are thinking of adopting a baby" Davina reveals to the table. " oh wow! I think that's great. " keelin says. " are you sure about this D. " Marcel asks in concern. davina rolls her eyes and answers with a yes. " now stop worrying. I'm not a kid anymore. " she tells him. kol just smirks towards Marcel know it will get under his skin. those two never truly got along. " Well how little Nicholas doing?" I ask. keeling and Freya smile at each other. " well hes good. I can't believe he'll be two in a few months. " freya says. Auntie Freya and Keelin then begin to tell us a few stories of things hes done.
dinner is now over and everyone is still sitting at the table talking and catching up. I let out a yawn. I'm a bit tired now so I excused myself and bid them good nights. I get up to my room and un pack my stuff. once I'm done I decide to take a shower and get some sleep. I strip my clothes off and step under the spray of water letting it run down my body. while in the shower I think about everything thats going on right now. I need to ask Marcel if he's found anything out about Roman or not. I still haven't made a decision of weather or not I'll become alpha of the Cresents or not. I don't know maybe I should. I mean with a war brewing and everything I wouldn't hurt to have something in my pocket to help fight this war. But at the same time its a lot. I have super squad, Noah, and an apparent war going on. I'm a very busy person and so stressed out right now. Being alpha would be another thing add to the plate. I think I've always know what answer to this would be but I'm just scared. maybe I can use this to my advantage. sure its another responsibility buy it could come as very useful. I guess I'll just have to face the music and do this. I've mad my decision. I'll become alpha. I hope to make my mom proud of the alpha ill be.
now this war thing. " someone I've met before" I keep thinking of this. who? who could it be I need another clue. maybe I should try calling the number the person texted me with. hmm, maybe? I might try later on. I wonder why they're declaring this war. I need to stop thinking of this. Its giving me a headache. I also don't like that the bad feeling I've been having is most likely because of this. I need to take my mind off of this for now. I begin to wash my hair trying to clear my mind. I close my eyes and take a deep breath and exhale. A picture of Noah pops into my mind, making me smile. gosh its only been two months and I just might be in love already.
while washing my body now and picturing Noah I think of him shirtless. now seeing a image of shirtless Noah i stare at his hard six pack abs. man is Noah hot. I just want to run my fingers along them. I want to kiss him and run my fingers trough his hair. next thing I know while thinking this and rinsing the soap off my body my hand has trailed down to my womanhood. I take two fingers and begin to circle the in my clit. I let out a soft moan. oh, how I wish Noah was here right now. while still circling my clit I push one finger into my core with my thumb now circling my clit. my moans are getting out of control. I need to be quiet up i just can't. it feels too good. my other hand trails up my body to one of my breasts and gives it a light squeeze. I pinch my nipples and slip a second finger into my throbbing hole. I'm so wet. " oh! Noah what are you doing to me?!" I whisper to myself. I can feel my core tightening and this feeling building up. I know I'm close. my two fingers and thumb begin to move faster and I press my thumb harder on my clit. I'm now a moaning mess and then I cum hard all over my hands. oh, that was good. I feel more relaxed actually. I rerinse off my body and turn off the water.
now out of the shower and fully dried off I put on some pajamas. I'm now in a pair of black silky material short shorts and matching camisole to the shorts. when I'm done getting dressed I brush my hair to get all the tangles out. while I'm brushing my hair I hear my phone vibrate so I check it. its a text from Noah. I smile and blush remembering what happened in the shower.
Noah. hey beautiful. just checking 2 c if u got n ok. I miss u. :)

did he just say I love you. oh, wow. I mean I love him to but isn't a bit soon to say it. do I say it back? what do I do? I decide to just leave it and go to sleep and worry about it tomorrow. I miss and love you Noah. with that thought darkness fills me.
POV: Noah
did I really just text her I love you? why why? how could I be so stupid? I mean I love Hope but what if she doesn't and doesn't it feel a little to soon. I wait about five minutes waiting for her response. she does not respond back. oh no! what gave I done? I ruined everything. she's probably freaking out right now. I can't lose her. wait a minute she was saying good night. she probably didn't read it yet. yeah? thats it. I'll just deal with it tomorrow. after all tomorrow is a new day.
its now morning time now. its actually 9:30. I just got done with a zoom meeting with work. even though with all the now inheriting all Lockwood property and money I was already doing great on my own. its now like I actually needed the money. I may be twenty but when I was sixteen I started my own gaming company. at just 16 I developed a game called Dragon Force. its a game where you character has a dragon and your this soldier in the military. there's this war because two dragon clan have different beliefs. one clan , Fireheart think they should adapt into the modern world and not stick to the old way. they don't want to abandon their traditions and laws. they think some laws should be reevaluate. while the second clan, dark spikes believe in sticking with old way. human ended up getting involved and so dragon force was born. Fireheart dragons are dragon force while dark spike is the fire militia. the humans have decided to join the Fireheart clan because of this the dark spikes are out for the humans too. so in dragon force each human is assigned a dragon and u are to bond with ur dragon. you fight this war together. (not a real game as far as I know. I completely made this up so don't sue me. )
I know quite the imagination right but I've always liked dragon. though I didn't know they actually existed until Hope told me. since then I've developed about three more video games.
bringing me ot of my thoughts I hear my sister , Ava come downstairs to the kitchen. I look up to see her. she is not a morning person. you can tell because until she fully wake and had all her coffee ava will only answer I grunt and groans. knowing this I don't speak to her. I have another meeting in about an hour. right now we're in the process of creating Dragon Force 2.0 . its basically a continuation of the first one. I'm really proud of myself. see growing up my mom didn't have a lot of money. she worked two jobs. since she was sixteen when she had Ava and I my mom ended up dropping out of school so she could get a job and support us. my grandparents was disappointed in her but then again who wouldn't be if your teenage daughter cam up pregnant. they didn't help her financially at all, hence the two jobs. when I created my game Dragon Force I posted it online. I coded all by myself. well after the post a tech company picked it up. the contacted me and made an offer. I didn't sell it but they did sponsor me and help verified my game. within six months thousands of people bought my game. I mad enough to jump start my own company and develop even more games. I'm now able to provide for my family. my mom doesn't have to work two jobs anymore. though I don't like that she work the one but she insisted.
its now lunch time and I'm fixing a grilled cheese for Ava and I.
