You Are My Soulmate!

Chapter 1

It was the bright sunlight that woke her up that morning. It danced across the room, hitting her face with its warm beams. She grunted in frustration. She was not an early bird. The gentle welcome of the morning sun only irritated her. She grabbed her phone from the nightstand to check the time. It was six in the morning. Another frustrated grunt could be heard. She wished to go back to sleep, but then she realized, this day supposed to be different. She checked her phone again. It was May the 2nd. It was her birthday. Her eighteenth birthday.

She dreaded this day for years, but now that it was here she couldn't help, but feel excited. It was the day she became an adult. The day she should receive her soulmate mark. She should. To be honest, she wasn't sure if she'd get one. Everyone got one. Humans, werewolves, witches, vampires even if they turned before their eighteenth birthday, they would get one on their eighteenth year. But she was different. A tribrid. The only one of her kind. She always doubted she'd ever get a soulmate. But she was hopeful. She should be, considering her name was Hope.

What if she'd get a soulmate? How would she ever meet them? She barely ever left the walls of her house. It was a big house, with plenty of rooms for every activity, they even had a huge courtyard in the middle. They just called their home the compound. It was in the heart of New Orleans, called the French Quarter. Hope lived there with her father, her aunts and their baby boy, Hope's cousin. Her father was Niklaus Mikaelson. He practically ran the city of supernaturals. They called him king of the city. People also called him evil, cruel and vicious. But Hope didn't see that in her father. For Hope, he was kind, caring and everything a good father should be. She admired him, he was the best person she knew. Although, he could be very overprotective of his only daughter. Hope was okay with it, only mildly annoyed her, but he was her only parent, he should be annoying sometimes. And it wasn't like Hope was a trouble child. Not much to worry about. She rarely left the compound and never really left the city.

Hope wasn't always like that... locked up in a castle like some kind of fairytale princess. It was all so different when she lived with her mom. She lived in the very same house, but she would leave constantly. Hope even had some friends from the local wolfpack at the Bayou. She even had a boyfriend once... but everything changed after her mother died.

Hope was fifteen, she had her first and only boyfriend. He was a sweet young vampire named Roman Sienna. They met in a bar called Rousseaus. Hope spent a lot of her time there, since her mom's boyfriend used to work there. Roman and Hope hit it off pretty quickly. He was just her type. Handsome, caring and kind, well he seemed like it. She thought she was falling in love with him. He was Hope's first kiss and until today he was her last kiss as well. They dated for about four months. Luckily, she never slept with him, she was only fifteen and she didn't feel ready for that step. He wanted to though, he kinda pressured her sometimes but thankfully Hope's mother raised her to stand her ground and not to give in to the pressure if she wasn't ready. After four months of them dating Hope made the stupidest decision. She just missed her father so much and one of her friends from the pack Henry gave Hope a lot of money for her blood... She finally had everything to see her dad in Europe. Then it all turned to chaos. Long story short, Henry became a hybrid through Hope's blood, he killed a vampire. Nazi vampires killed Henry and they wanted to get rid of every hybrids... especially Hope, because she could make more. The nazi vampire leader turned out to be Roman's mother. He betrayed Hope, kidnapped Hope's mother then his mother killed hers. Thankfully that bitch died in the process as well. Roman was alive and well... he apologized, he said he was manipulated by her mother but Hope couldn't forgive him, she never wanted to see him anymore and without any guild she hoped he had a crappy life.

Then the hollow came back... after Hope's mother passed away she just wanted her dad and her family back together, so she took the evil spirit, the dark magic in. She took it back from her dad and uncles and aunt. But it was a mistake as well... Hope couldn't handle it and it was killing her. Her uncle Elijah said he couldn't live without the love of his life, Hope's mother, Hayley. So he took the hollow's magic from Hope and he killed himself. Elijah, her mother or Henry weren't the only ones dying because of Hope's stupidity. While the hollow was inside of her, she killed the bastard nazi vampires but in the process she accidently killed an innocent human... that's how Hope triggered her wolf curse.
