CALLS AT WORK.

Roman sat in his office working. Since he got to work he kept regretting why he did. He should have just stayed at home because that was were his mind was. He kept looking at the time to see when he would go home but this was the day his secretary knew she would bring all documents that he needed to sign

As he sat on his black leather office chair with a pen in his hand, he smiled at the thought of Hayley and their night together

“Sir, sir, Mr Lysander” his secretary called drawing him out of his thoughts

He shot a look at her

“I am so sorry sir, i have been waiting for you to sign the documents so that i can collect them and forward the copies but you kept smiling at it” his secretary said

He grunted at her words then quickly signed it and handed it over to her.

“Thank you” he said looking at her and then the door

She got what he was trying to say so she turned on her heels and headed away from the office leaving her day dreaming boss behind.

    I'LL PROTECT YOU. Roman was finding everything so hard to understand as Hayley wasn’t being clear at all. “Listen, she was asking what I was and I panicked so another maid came and hit her from behind. I've healed her though, I just need you to wipe her memory, '' Hayley said to Roman. Where exactly did you say she is?” Roman asked Hayley. “In the closet” she answered. Roman walked to the closet and truly there was an unconscious girl there. Roman turned back to look at Hayley in disbelief, then he turned towards the unconscious maid. He bent down in front of her body, placed his hands over her head for a while and stood up. “It is done, when she wakes, she won't remember anything” Roman said to Hayley. She let out a sigh of disbelief and sat down on the bed, bouncing a little. “Thank you” Hayley said to Roman and he just looked on at her He knew there was something else. “What is going to happen?” Hayley said. “Are we talking about the maid or something else?” Roman aske

    SERENITY Later that day, in the evening Roman and Hayley sat in the sanctuary, quietly taking in the peace and comfort it provided. They were left in totally silence, that is, asides from the songing of the birds and the splash from the fishes in the pond and the noise of the breeze against the trees. Hayley was enjoying this moment between them “Your parents and Caspian are on their way so we would need to get back inside soon” Roman said, his deep voice breaking the silence. Hayley raised her head so that she could see his face. “They are? Why?” She asked him “Wait, don't tell me that you are making them come this late because to the changing into a werewolf stuff?” She asked further Roman scoffed at her question “I love the way you talk about this as if it isn't a big deal. Anyway, i told them about it but i did not ask them to come here because of that. There is something else” Roman said to Hayley. “Something else? What exactly is that?” She asked him furrowing he

    THE FIGHT. Hayley saw the surprise in Viola's eyes when she heard her support Roman. Would you blame her? This was Hayley, somebody that was always vocal about how much she despised Roman. This meant that Hayley was finally fitting in the shoes of the Lycan queen “Hayley, we heard from Roman about everything that happened with you today. Just want you to know that we are here with you” Caspian said. “Thank you Caspian,” Hayley replied to him. “We need to get ready” The alpha said. “ill be fine, you need not worry” Hayley said to her mom, Viola as she saw the worry plastered on her beautiful face making her look older. Her dad held Viola's shoulder and ran his hands up and down her shoulders to calm her down. She looked at him and he nodded. I was awed by the kind of connection they had they could communicate without moving their lips, just merely with eye contact. The alpha turned back to their direction, he was not looking at Hayley but at Roman. “We have to find

    HEADING OUT “Rose, where are you going?” He asked her as she kept walking. Roman followed after her but she did not look back once, neither did she answer his question. “Rose” he called out. “Roman please let me be. Go back inside. I'm done with you this night.” She said and kept walking into the darkness Roman watched her pull out her phone and dialed a number. There was no answer the first time but at the second ring the calk was connected. “Hello, Katherina. Are you okay? Is everything alright?” He asked. “Yes dad. I am fine. Everything is alright.” She lied. That was the opposite of what she was feeling She totally hated it when Roman acted this way. It made her so mad. “Dad how far have you gone?” She asked him. “Not that far. Katherina what is wrong?” The Alpha asked his daughter again “Dad, i mean it, nothing at all is wrong. Mom forgot her purse, that's all and her phone is in here. She might need it.” We would meet you halfway just find where to park and we will co

I can't believe i was so forgetful” Viola said not wanting to drag on the talk about Roman. Hayley stretched out her hand and touched viola's. “Princess put your hands back in, so you don't get a cold” The Alpha scolded his daughter and she laughed. Hayley actually loved the feel of him being so bothered. The rain had begun falling in a slanted manner so that it was now entering the car. “Okay, that's enough. You need to get home now. Gregory take care of her and yes before i forget it was nice meeting you. See you again?” The Alpha asked. “Y..yes…yes sir” Greg stammered making Hayley smile. He was act

    FEARS AND WORRIES. “Have you introduced yourself to him, my dad i mean?” Hayley asked gregory. “No, not yet. I doubt I would. Why would he remember someone so insignificant like me. Besides this happened years ago.” Gregory said. “Makes sense but you never know” Hayley told him. “Maybe one day, if the chance ever comes around” he said. “What do you mean? He asked that you both see later didn't he?” Hayley asked “You know that is just him being polite, right?” He asked. “Nothing is certain exxept for the fact that you are going to meet him tomorrow” Hayley said and he laughed. “I think somebody is forgetting that the Alpha is my dad” Hayley said “You mean you would arrange for us to meet?” He asked. “Of course, you made this drive a one to remember and i am grateful for that” she said and immediately she brought out her phone and dialed a number and when the call connected she put it on loud speaker “Dad are you free tomorrow?” She asked and Gregory gasped in disbelief. “Ye

    THE MORNING AFTER.Hayley opened her eyes and stretched her hand on the other side of the bed but she it was empty.Roman had obviously left for work she thought to herself. She really wanted to see him before he left.She yawned lightly and turned to the other side of the bed, where she came eye to eye with no other than Roman.He hadn't left for work he had been watching her sleep.“Good morning sunshine” Roman greeted her smiling softly as he watched her.She noticed he was already dressed for work. He waited for her to see him before he left.“Aren't you going to answer my greeting?” He asked smiling. Hayley thought he looked so handsome, it was just then it clicked in her brain that the last time they had sex she woke up looking like a she-beast. With her hair going every which way. Oh my God she couldn't afford to be looking like that in front of him. She quickly ducked under the duvet hiding herself from his view. Roman chuckled at that as he felt that it was so cute.“Why won'

    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.

    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."

    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
