Chapter Final Chapter
Hope
There he was standing by the alter waiting for me, my handsome overbearing mate that I love more than anything in the world. His dark shiny eyes were glued on mine. I could feel his restlessness because we had been apart since last night.
As I walked down the aisle in my father’s loving grip I remembered when I was little and got lost in the woods, I was so scared but Zayn found me and brought me back home. With every step I took closer to him my life passed before me from the first time saw him by the pool, our trip to Hawaii, our first night together on his birthday, when we marked each other, I thought about my life with him leading me to this day…. to this moment.
His eyes held so much admiration I could feel his love in the form of energy radiating off him in waves and traveling to me crashing right through my heart. A few short steps before I reached his side I smiled at him and he smiled back and reached out his hand for mine. I felt like this was a milestone in my life where I was leaving my father’s side like I was crossing over the threshold from being my father’s little girl to a married woman. I took Zayn’s hand and turned to look at my father with teary eyes. He smiled at me and kissed my forehead
This is your destiny he mind linked me and nodded assuring me that he would always be here for me and that everything would be just fine. He then turned to Zayn
“Take care of my princess”
“With everything in me” Zayn said his eyes still on mine. He put his arm around my waist and pulled me to him gently eyeing me very discretely from head to toe. As dad took his seat next to my mother.
You look amazing I still can’t believe you’re mine Zayn complimented me
You look very handsome and I missed you so much I replied
The priest cleared his throat that’s when I realized he had already started speaking but Zayn and I were in a world of our own. Poor guy was human and had no idea that he was in the middle of the strongest werewolf pack known to the werewolf world.
“I’m sorry” Zayn said looking at the priest then back at me “She has that effect on me”
I giggled quietly and Zayn winked at me
“Today is a day to celebrate.” The priest continued whatever he was saying before “We are celebrating the love and commitment of two people who love each other and wish to spend the rest of their lives together. We are gathered together on this day to witness and celebrate the marriage of Hope and Zayn.” I kept my eyes on Zayn’s
Soon it was time for us to say our vows “Zayn please share your vows” I looked at him as he held both of my hands and spoke
“Hope” Zayn’s voice was deep yet calm as he spoke freely “I married you with my heart and soul on the night I saw you for the first time. I have been devoted to you since that day. In your eyes I found peace. In your heart I found love. In your arms I found my home. In your soul I found My Mate. Because of you I smile to the world that seemed so dark before you. You brought light into my life and changed me forever. You gave me a future that could never be bleak with you by my side. I love you Hope and I promise to honor you and love you and protect you for as long as we both shall live. Thank you for accepting me. You will forever be My Mate and My Hope.” He lifted his hand and gently wiped away a single tear running down my face.
“Hope please share your vows with us” The priest said
Zayn
She held on to both my hands before she spoke
“Zayn” Her soft voice calmed me down instantly. My name coming off her lips like music to my ears.
“We have been through so much together but those things only made us stronger. My heart has been yours since the first day I saw you. My body, my mind, my heart, and my soul have belonged to you for a long time now. You’re everything I could ever want. With you I am complete. You are my first and last everything. All my days start and end with you. You are my comfort when I feel pain, my spirit when I feel drained, you’re my shield when I need protection. I promise to always encourage you to reach all your goals, I promise to love you unconditionally and to be your lover when you need to be loved. I am yours for eternity.”
The crowd clapped for us when she finished declaring her love and devotion to me. I kept my eyes on her she smiled and blushed. She still blushed under my stare after all this time.
The priest continued “Do you Zayn, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife to live together in matrimony, to love her, comfort her, honor and keep her in sickness and in health, in sorrow and in joy, to have and to hold from this day forward , as long as you both shall live?
Oh I’m going to have you alright I mind linked my baby and she giggled
“I do”
“Do you Hope, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband to live together in matrimony, to love him, comfort him, honor and keep him in sickness and in health, in sorrow and in joy, to have and to hold from this day forward , as long as you both shall live?”
Hope stayed quiet which made me a little nervous
“Baby?” She looked at me emotionless at first then smiles
“Of course I do” She said I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding. Temptress.
After that we exchanged rings and the priest pronounced us husband and wife.
“You may k**s your bride” He said and I didn’t need any further invitation before wrapping my arm around her waist pulling her close to me and finally tasting her warm mouth.
I kissed her passionately but softly fighting the caveman inside not to pick her up and take her home.
“Dance with me Mrs. Black” She smiles up at me before taking my hand and we walk to the center of the dance floor
“So how does it feel to be a married woman?” I asked my baby
“It feels like this is where I want to be for the rest of my life”
“Good because that’s where you’ll only ever be” I cupped her face and claimed her mouth. She m***s into my mouth making my c**k twitch. She pulls away first not wanting to give our guests a show.
“How does it feel to be a married man?” She asks me
“It feels like I’m the luckiest man alive to have you and speaking of having you how about we get out of here? that dress has been driving me crazy all night”
She giggled and wrapped her arms around my neck she brings me down a little, I thought she wanted to k**s me but she brings her lips right up to my hear
“Wait till you see what’s under the dress” She says slowly in the most seductive voice I’ve ever heard and then k****s my mark giving me an instant boner. f*****g sexy little temptress.
“Okay we have to leave now because we have a flight to catch and reservations to keep” I told the crowd calmly
I watched her say good bye to her parents and friends before her eyes looked around for me. I had just put her bag in the car. I took her by the waist and she waved to everyone goodbye before we got in the car.
Hope brought me strength and inner peace. She made me want to be a husband and a father. She showed me a whole new world of love and devotion. She gave this pack hope for a better tomorrow with her by my side we are invincible and I don’t mean in battle. I won’t allow her to fight I can fight my own battles I just need her emotionally and physically. Only she has the power to destroy me …my beautiful mate my hope in this world.
