Oops! My true parents are the popular and rich Family in New York. The world has gone mad for The Merchettis to be my Parents. _______________ "Hayley, what do you know about Werewolves?" Viola says, and I frown at her. "Werewolves?" I say, and she nods. "Uhm, they are humans who change into Wolves at a particular period of time, they can change by will, some, I guess. I don't know much about them." "What if I told you they are real?" Da -- Alpha says, and I sit upright. "What?" "This might seem like a lot, but Werewolves are real, and you are one," Viola says, and I laugh. "Werewolves change when they turn eight, I'm twenty-eight." "Yes, and it is called repression. Your environment contributed to that, you weren't in your home, which is in a Pack, here, among other Wolves." Viola says. I say nothing, biting my lips, my mind tilting off the axis "So I am one?" "Yes." "A wolf, everyone here is a Wolf?" "Yes, Hayley." Fuck. _______________ If it’s not crazy enough to know that your true parents are rich and powerful, getting to be informed that you are a werewolf will shock your mind.

View MoreRolling around in bed, enjoying how soft the sheets are and how fluffy the pillows feels on my head but that did not last as I came to my senses and remember that my bed is not as soft.
I open my eyes to a strange room with a pounding head, I turned my head to see someone lying next to me, 'oh no' I thought to myself checking under the sheet and realizing I was not clothed down there.With as much speed as I could muster, I get out of the bed, put on my clothes and proceed to walk out of the door but I hear a voice behind me."Where are you going in a hurry?" I heard a deep voice that I assume belongs to the strange man on the bed."I am sorry but I have to go." I reply without looking back, I opened the door and walking through it, I hear him say "wait" but that makes me move faster.As I walk out of the house I remember coming here last night, it was a celebration party and I needed for few minutes to not be myself but clearly that was a very big mistake. I am not the type to have a one night stand, I am not even a party person and I have no idea how I ended up in that room with that man.The last thing I remember is having a drink at the house bar. I bring out my phone and dial Jane's number, we came here together last night but it seems she left without me because I just saw a message from her that asks where I am, and tells me she has to go."Jane, I just read your message, what happened?" I asked as I walk down the street with the sun coming down hard."I am sorry Hayley, James got bursted with another DUI and I had to go meet him." She says, then asks."When did you get home?"I refrain from telling her anything, because I do not understand it on my own."Um, I am on my way home. What time did you leave?" I ask, trying to make her forget about me just going home as it is almost noon."What? This is almost eleven o'clock Hayley, how are you just going home." She asks ignoring my question"I know the time genius, can you answer my question?" I ask again opening my door and walking into my house."I know we got there by eight last night but I can not remember anything after taking the shots so tell me what you remember and when you left." I dropped on a chair resting my head to reduce the throbbing."I left after we had the third shot, remember you told me you wanted to dance, then I saw you dancing with a guy I couldn't make out in the crowd, I got the call from James but when I turned around I couldn't see you anymore. I looked around for you, searching one room after another but was interrupted with another call from James and I had to leave, that was around ten." She explains"Oh no" I exclaim placing my right hand on my forehead. "I remember dancing with some guy at the party but he suddenly got grabby and when I tried pushing him off me, his hands got tighter around my waist pulling me into himself forcefully.""He led me somewhere right after that and tried kissing me but he was thrown off me before I could do or say anything." I get off the chair, going to get an aspirin for my head and returning to the chair."Wow, by who?" She asked obviously intrigued."I don't know, I couldn't make out his face because my vision was blurry. Taking those shots was a bad idea." I leave out the part that I woke up in a strange room, on the bed with a strange man, naked."I'm sorry I left you there Hals, but I'm glad you are okay." I could hear the guilt in her voice.Jane and I has been friends from high school, we clicked the first day we met and has since then been best of friends. She is a twenty three years old lady, just like me, beautiful face like that of a model, five feet six inches tall, brown hair, green eyes and a shape that would have you looking twice.Her only flaw is falling for the wrong men, like James. She met James right after college and as much as I hate his guts she loves him, I have told her he is not right for her but I support her decision. We were living together till James asked her to move in with him."It is fine, I am home now, I just need to rest my head." I say closing my eyes."Alright, we will talk later." She answers."Yeah, later." I end the call and drop the phone next to me on the chair. I slowly feel the headache reducing and I drift into sleep.In a dream, I find myself running from a group of people chasing me with all sorts of weapon, I run as fast as my legs can take me but I am pushed to the ground and turning around I see red glowing eyes surrounding me and coming close."Please don't hurt me" I manage to squeak out as the person in front of me raise a dagger, and stabbing me in the chest, making me jolt awake, with racing hearts and confusion. These nightmares are becoming ever so frequent.I hear knocks on the door, and gasp, only to calm myself, and open the door, to see Jane, holding takeouts."I came to make it up to you." She says as soon as I opened the door lifting her hands for me to see that it is sushi."You don't have to, I told you I am fine." I say closing the door and walking behind her as she goes to the kitchen."Yeah yeah, you said so, but you are not the boss of me and so you can't tell me what to do." She says turning to face me and rolling her eyes.Today is Saturday, meaning we don't have to work, as we both teach in an High School. Weekends are ours to do as we please which was why we were out partying last night."I was taking a nap before you came. I need to go take my bath and brush my teeth before I eat." I say walking out of the kitchen and going to the bedroom."I knew from the way you sounded on the phone that you needed me." I jump as I hear her voice behind me, I didn't hear her following me."Do you want to give me an heart attack." I glare at her and she grin at me, showing her perfect white teeth."Oh please, I can do better at scaring you if that was what I was aiming for." She dismisses my words with a wave of her hand."Besides you are easy to scare." She says going out of the room._______I get out of my crop top and jeans, stand in front of my mirror and stare at myself.My brunette hair hanging from every direction, my blue eyes dim, my oval shaped face showing the signs of stress and I look at my five feet three inches statue for while, wondering how a girl who does not go to parties nor drink, will end up hooking up with a stranger the first time she goes to a party and takes a drink. I walked into the bathroom, running my hand through my hair.As the water run down my body I feel relaxed and at ease.I wonder who the man is and how I ended up in bed with him. As much as I try, I can't remember anything.After getting ready, I leave my room to the Kitchen where Jane has set up the food and drinks."I thought you wouldn't come out of the bathroom, the food is almost cold." Jane says as she sights me coming into the kitchen."The water was soothing, I didn't want to come out." I reply with a smile, siting down, wondering if I should tell her about this morning."Is something wrong?" She says, snapping me out of my thought."No I'm fine. Why?" I say, eating."How did you get home." She asks."I ordered a ride, there's actually something I need to tell you." I say, deciding."What is it?" She ask curiously."I woke up this morning with a strange man on the same bed." I say with a low voice."Is that a joke?" She asks the questions all at once."I am not joking, I can't remember how I ended up there. Like I said on the phone, I remember being grabbed by that other guy but after he was pushed from me I blacked out." I try to remember, but feel an headache coming."Oh my God, have you taken anything since you got back, like an after pill""Shit, I have not. I panicked, left there."_______"Were you able to help James with the DUI?" I ask Jane as we watch Tv, trying to put my mind off the strange man."Yes I did, we got into a fight right after that." She said looking sad and my heart breaks a little."About what?" I ask, despite knowing already."I do not want to talk about it." She waves it off, I nod and we watch the movie in a comfortable silence.My phone rings, and I grab it, smiling when I see it's Mom."Hey Mom." I smile."Hayley, baby girl, how are you?" She says, but there's a seriousness in her tone which is unusual."What is wrong, Mom?" I say, trying not to panic."Can you come home, your Dad and I need to talk to you about something." She says, and now, I am freaking out, because the last time I got a call like this, Meemaw had died."What is going on, Mom?""Nothing is going on, just come home, I made your favorite." She says, and hangs up, providing no further clarifying information.I stare at Jane, and she looks worried."I have to go, can you lock up when you leave? She sounded bad, and I am worried something bad has happened." I say, and she nods."Alright, babe. Can you call me when you hear anything?""Of course."I walk into my Parent's house, surprised to see Dr. Martin with them, is she sick?"Hey Mom, Dad, Dr. Martin. What is going on?" I cut to the chase, sitiing across them."Sweetheart, we love you and we always will and this is not going to change what you mean to us." My mom begins."Mom you're scaring me, what is really going on?" I ask getting impatient as the suspense builds."About a month ago we got an anonymous mail telling us that you are not our daughter." She says, and naturally, I laugh, because, I am twenty-eight years old, so that must be a joke."She is telling the truth." Dad says, and I blink."I know it is a lot to take in but we are here for you if you have any question." My mum says.This is not real, it can't be real, I must be dreaming and I need someone to wake me up."Do you at least know who my parents are?" I ask my voice cracking and my eyes tearing up."Yes, their names and address was sent with the last mail. Apparently you were switched at birth, we don't know why because the mail didn't say." She explains and more tears roll down my eyes."Oh honey, I am sorry about this but like your mother said, nothing is going to change, we will always love you and see you as our daughter." My dad says. I hug him and sob on his shoulder, my life crumbling before my eyes."What is their name?" I mumble out the question to my dad."The Merchettis." He answers, I sit up to look at him and I know he can see the surprise and questions on my face."Yes honey, I know what you're thinking, your mom and I thought about it when we saw the name in the mail." He explains.The Merchettis are a very popular Family in New York, some considers them royalty. I have lived in California, Sanfracisco all my life, and now, I was going to New York to see some Family?The world has gone mad for The Merchettis to be my Parents.Happily Ever AfterHayley's POVThe morning sun shone through the windows as I stared at the garden below, savoring the beautiful view of it. It was like a gentle whisper of hope, soft and tentative, whispering through my ears. My fingers traced the windowsill, exploring the smooth, weathered wood beneath my touch - each groove and grain a tactile memory of our tumultuous journey. Two days. Just two days since Roman had returned from a battle that had threatened to unravel everything we knew, a conflict that had hovered on the razor's edge of total destruction.Memories cascaded through my mind like fragmented scenes from a nightmare. The metallic scent of blood. The paralysis of fear. That horrifying moment when time seemed to stop, and I believed I might lose everything I had come to love.But not today.Today was different.Today was about healing.About redemption.About hope rekindled.Downstairs, the kitchen was a symphony of preparation. We had hired more cooks for the celeb
A Promising Future Roman's POV I opened my eyes to the soft morning light coming through the windows. The pain in my chest was less now, thanks to the healing I got last night. Rose sat next to me on our bed, her hand gentle on my arm. She looked tired but happy."How are you feeling?" she asked softly, her fingers threading through my hair with such tenderness it made my heart ache. Dark circles circled her eyes, evidence of her exhaustion from last night, but her smile held all the warmth of the morning sun.I caught her hand in mine, pressing my lips to her knuckles, breathing in the familiar scent of her skin. "Better. The healing worked better than I expected." Every word was true – the piercing pain that had threatened to tear me apart was now just a memory."That's good." Her smile wavered slightly, worry dancing in the depths of her green eyes like shadows in still water. "The twins are still sleeping now. But they gave me a hard time sleeping last night. It's like they c
A New Dawn Hayley's POV I paced the hospital corridor as we waited for Dad to wake up. The fluorescent lights shone too bright even though it was already night, making the white walls seem even more clinical. I sat down in an uncomfortable plastic chair and shifted numerous times, my muscles protesting after hours of sitting. Next to me, Viola kept checking her phone, her fingers drumming an anxious rhythm on her thigh. Bree had gone home to rest about an hour ago, practically falling asleep on her feet. I'd insisted she get some proper sleep, promising to call if anything changed. The twins were with Dora, and even though I trusted her completely, my thoughts kept drifting to them. It was the longest I'd been away since they were born. "Family of Lucien Merchetti?" A doctor's voice drew my attention to the doorway. She was young, probably in her early thirties, with kind eyes that crinkled at the corners when she smiled. "You can go in and see him now, but just for a litt
The Final Battle Roman's POVThe private jet touched down in San Francisco just as the sun began its descent behind the horizon. My muscles were tense from the flight, but my mind was sharp, focused on the hunt ahead.Beside me, Caspian checked his phone for the hundredth time, his usual playful demeanor replaced by cold determination."Our tracking team is already working on Scarlett's location," I told him as we climbed into the waiting SUV. "They'll have coordinates for us within minutes." I informed him."Good." Caspian's voice was clipped. "The sooner we end this, the better." He added.As we drove to my wolves' team here in San Francisco, I pulled out my phone to hear from Rose back in New York. My fingers hovered over Rose's number for a moment before I pressed call. She answered on the first ring, her voice tight with worry."Roman? Did you find them?" She asked me.Just hearing her voice made my wolf whine. "We're close. The tracking team is working on it now." I leaned aga
Escape Before DawnRoman's POV We sat at the back of the garden, and the late afternoon shone across the immaculately beautiful lawn. My wolf paced restlessly beneath my skin as I watched Scarlett and Stephan exchange their vows, not fooled by the serene facade of this wedding. Everything about them looked fake – the forced smiles, the tension crackling in the air, the way my guards tried to blend into the background while keeping their eyes fixed on Melissa.Rose was beside me, her hand warm in mine, her emerald dress making her skin glow in the fading light. She was trying to keep her composure, but I could feel the slight tremor in her fingers. I found myself thinking about our own future wedding, the one we'd have once all this mess was over. It would be different – filled with joy instead of suspicion, love instead of hatred."You may kiss the bride," the officiant announced, his voice carrying across the hushed garden.I leaned closer to Rose, my lips brushing her ear as I wh
Scarlett's Wedding Hayley's POV I stood before the full-length mirror in our bedroom, pulling down the hem of my emerald green dress for the hundredth time now. I felt nervous.The silk material mused against my skin as I stretched it, but even its luxurious touch couldn't calm my nerves. Today was my sister's wedding—if you could call someone who'd tried to kill you a sister."Stop fidgeting, Rose." Roman's deep voice called from the doorway. I didn't have to turn because I saw his reflection in the mirror before me, and my breath hitched in my throat. He looked devastatingly handsome in his charcoal suit, his dark hair slightly tousled as if he'd been running his fingers through it. His eyes, those piercing amber orbs that never failed to see right through me, held mine in the mirror."I can't help it," I mumbled, smoothing my hands over my stomach. The twins' birth had left its marks, but Bree had chosen this dress perfectly—it hugged in all the right places while still being ap
Three Days of GraceRoman's POVIt was three days before Scarlett's wedding. I was pacing my study in the early morning, thinking. Dawn hadn't yet broken when Caspian arrived and joined me in the study. I had called him earlier. I'd been up for hours now, my wolf restless beneath my skin. The weight of leadership had never felt heavier than in these moments, when every decision could mean life or death for those I loved."Three days," Caspian said, leaning back in his chair. Dark circles under his eyes suggested he'd been up all night too. "Are we really going through with getting Melissa out for the wedding?" He asked me.I paused my pacing to rub my temples, where a headache had been building since midnight. I turned to walk to the window, watching as the sun shone down in the garden looking too peaceful for the turmoil in my mind."I don't know," I admitted, my voice rough from lack of sleep. The thought of letting Melissa out made my wolf snarl with protective rage. "With ever
Betrayal in Plain SightRoman's POVThis morning I woke up with new determination. I rubbed my tired eyes, determined to review more surveillance footage. Yesterday's run with Rose had helped clear my mind, made the bitterness and pain more manageable. I didn't expect to find anything new in the recordings, but I had to try. I had barely started hearing the recordings in my study.Then I heard it.Scarlett's voice came through the speakers, trembling slightly. "I don't know what to do. He's going to banish me from New York. I have nowhere to go." She cried.I leaned forward, turning up the volume. A female voice responded, making my anger spike."Come to San Francisco. We need to stick together now more than ever," the voice said. "It's time we dealt with Roman and Hayley once and for all." She told her. Wait. That voice sounds familiar.My fingers gripped the edge of my desk. That voice... I knew that voice."Are you sure?" Scarlett asked, hope creeping into her tone."Yes. Just co
Comfort in ChaosHayley's POVMy heart ached as I watched Roman storm upstairs to his study, his shoulders rigid with tension. The sound of his footsteps echoed through the foyer, each step heavy with the weight of yesterday's revelations. Viola's eyes followed his retreating form, and concern appeared on her elegant features."Kate, darling," Viola said softly, reaching across the table to squeeze my hand. "I've never seen him this tense, even for Roman. What has happened?" She asked me.I sighed, running my fingers through my hair. The morning sunlight streaming through the windows suddenly felt too bright, too cheerful for the heaviness in my chest. "He visited his mother in the dungeon yesterday," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "She told him... she told him Victor might be his real father."The silence that followed was deafening. Bree's coffee cup clattered against its saucer, the sound sharp in the quiet room."Oh my God," Bree breathed, her blue eyes wide. "Are you
