Rekindling FriendshipHayley's POVThe sitting room grew darker signalling nightfall. And the colorful glow from the television screen shone across the room, which casted dancing shadows on the walls and our faces too.I sank deeper into Jane's plush couch, while the familiar scent of her apartment wrapped around me like a warm blanket.The familiar comfort of a movie night together eased away the tension of the past few months.As the end credits of our second film rolled on the screen, bringing us to the end of the movie, Jane stretched and yawned."I think we need a caffeine boost," she said with a grin. "Let me go put on some coffee." She said jumping up."Coffee sounds perfect," I said, offering a smile of my own.I was grateful for the break. As Jane disappeared into the kitchen, I let out a long breath, my hand unconsciously moving to rest on my swollen belly.The baby gave a little kick, as if reminding me of its presence. A small smile tugged at my lips."Alright, alright," I

The Gambler's GambitRoman's POVAs I continued to sit in the dimly lit corner of the casino, my eyes never left the gambler's table where Sylvester sat. As if he'd disappear if I blinked my eye even for a second.I took another sip from my drink and wondered when to make my move. Sylvester was not leaving the table at any moment and the game looked like it'll never end, which grated on my nerves.Abruptly, my thoughts were interrupted by the arrival of a woman in a dress that left little to the imagination. She slid onto the sofa next to me, with her perfume as overwhelming as her presence."Can I have a drink with you, handsome?" she purred, leaning in close. "You shouldn't be sitting here alone all by yourself." She added, with her voice dripping with false sweetness.I resisted the urge to roll my eyes. This was the last thing I needed right now. "I'm fine on my own," I replied, keeping my voice neutral, but hoping she'd take the hint and leave.But she was persistent, like a mos

Out For Blood Roman's POV Everything was halfway done now that I have this fucker's location, Sylvester. The evening sky grew dark outside as I prepared to confront Sylvester. My patience had finally paid off, since I found his hidden location patiently at the casino. "Patience pays off after all," I muttered to myself, "but now it's time for action." I smirked smugly in anticipation. I gazed out the glass window, watching the bustling city below. One thing he didn't know was that I have hidden men and spies everywhere, and they were always a call away. I didn't want to involve them in a small case like Sylvester's before. But it was beginning to grate on my nerves and I better be done with him. "He may think he's well-guarded," I growled softly, "but he's never seen an army like mine." I mused, with a grim smile tugging at my lips. My army of shapeshifters were already on their way to my hotel lodge here in San Francisco. They were bloodthirsty beasts who'd do anything for t

Healed Hearts and Shared Love Hayley's POV Soon, the door creaked open, and Dr. Sofia entered, with a warm smile on her face. "I've made the arrangements. You're finally ready for the short trip." She announced. I felt glad. "Oh wonderful!" I gasped. She nodded. "Five minutes with your mother. But don't overdo it, okay?" She warned Roman, who was still by my side since I'd woken up, squeezed my hand. "I'll make sure she behaves, Doctor." He winked. I rolled my eyes at him, but couldn't keep the grin off my face. "Let's go see Mom." I said. As the nurse removed my cannula, I felt a rush of excitement bubble up inside me. Roman had sensed my happiness and he leaned in close as he helped me into the wheelchair. "She's going to be overjoyed to see you too." I nodded like a child being taken out to a fun fair. "Oh I can't wait." I breathed. The short journey to Mom's room felt like it took forever and no time at all. As Roman pushed me through the door, I held my breath. And the

More Storms Ahead Hayley's POV As we drove home from the airport, I decided to let my family in San Francisco know that we touched down. This time around, I was going to make it right and not forget about them. I fumbled for my phone, and immediately I brought it out, my fingers danced across the screen as I dialed my mom's number. The familiar ring echoed in my ear, each tone a heartbeat until her sweet voice filled my ear. "Hayley?" She said, with warmth and comfort in her tone. "Hey, Mom," I said, unable to keep the smile from my voice. "Just wanted to let you know we landed safely." I informed her. "Oh, thank goodness," she sighed. "I've been watching the clock like a hawk. How was the flight?" She asked immediately. "Smooth as silk," I assured her. "How are you feeling? How's dad too?" I inquired. And she didn't wait for a second, before she began explaining. "Oh he's fine dear and I'm feeling better every day, sweetheart. Even my group of old folks were wondering... It's
