Claudine, a beautiful human girl, has to decide which of the lesser evils to live with. On one part is her evil and adopted werewolf family, who tortures and torments her at every turn, while on the other are two werewolf alphas, Denzel and Reid, who are sworn enemies of each other. Will she be loyal to her mate Denzel or Reid, the corrupt alpha who turns her? Or will family values take precedence over all else?

Tangled With The Fated Mates Chapter 1 1| Adoption Day

Claudine's Pov

Claudine opened her eyes and groaned. The sunlight streaming in through the stained windows of the little room hurt her eyes as soon as she opened them. She automatically flipped an arm over her eyes and groaned again.

"Today's adoption day," giggled Annette.

Annette is one of the overly chirpy roommates that Claudine had been saddled with for the past six months in the orphanage home. There were so many mornings that Claudine wished she could hear just her mouth, and today was one of them.

Utterly oblivious to Claudine's thoughts, Annette continued eagerly to the other girls.

"Miz Lucas says I'm going to be picked today." She bounced giddily on her toes as she proclaimed the girls who made suitable happy noises back at her.

Claudine climbed down from the bunk bed, plunking her feet firmly on the ground to distract them and keep them quiet even for a minute. She succeeded because they all paused in their conversation to spare her a glance. Annette hissed and sneered at her, encouraging the other girls to do the same.

"It can never be you, Claudine. You would stay here, getting old and dirty, and finally, become another Miz Lucas to look after new orphans." The other girls nodded their heads readily in agreement.

"Well, good luck to you" –she nodded her head in Annette's direction-" and to your minions" -she nodded her head to the other girls.

Annette started to vibrate. "Who are you calling minions? Do you think you're better than everyone else around you? You're-"

But Claudine had shut the door firmly against them at this point and thankfully stopped the tirade. She didn't care to hear what she was in Annette's opinion. If the people coming for adoption could take them all, she would be eternally grateful to fate for playing such a hand.

She quickly brushed her teeth and showered. She may not feel like lining up to be examined by strangers, but she still had to show up and make herself presentable. When she returned to the room to dress up, she found the room quiet and empty.

Claudine sighed and sat down on her bed to reminisce about her life. If only she had grown up in a natural home with her birth parents, she would not be here trading words with teenage girls with overinflated egos. She got up and walked over to her box, rummaging for something suitable to wear.

A voice suddenly called her name from the landing.

"Claudine Gofflin! Come down here right this minute."

That had to be Miz Lucaz. No one else drawled her surname as she did by putting an emphasis right at the end of the surname. She did it in such a way that "Gofflin" sounded like "Goffleeen." Claudine sighed again and shut her box with a bang, after which she hurriedly dressed up.

"I'm coming," she called back as she went through the door to go down the stairs and into the hall.

Usually, on adoption days, both sexes line up in the hall, all the boys to the left and the girls to the right. The younger ones stood in the front line, and the older ones stood just behind them. Then, the couple or family seeking to adopt any of the orphans would casually go around to inspect and screen till they found a spec visually. Today was no different.

A young girl of fifteen with sky-blue eyes and rich dark brown hair appeared at the bottom of the stairs. Her pink, rosy lips parted, and her beautiful voice was heard all over the room.

"You called for me," she said primly to Miz Lucaz.

"Fall in line, girl," whispered Miz Lucaz quite fiercely.

Claudine did as she was told. Whatever energy she heard was best conserved for standing and smiling at the strangers when they started to make their rounds. Annette caught her eyes and stuck her tongue at her, but Claudine completely ignored her.

A family of three had walked in then. A man in his fiftyish years with a thirtyish woman and their young daughter who looked like she could be in her early twenties. The woman's voice sounded sweet but sounded like something you could easily get tired of hearing quickly.

"Darling, we're adopting mostly for Arielle. She has always wanted a sister, so it has to be a girl. And probably someone quite close to her in age."

"Okay, okay," replied the man, who appeared to be someone who quickly gave in to his wife and daughter's whims.

He had something Claudine called a bulldog posture in her mind's eye. When he had gotten closer to Claudine, she could see the tufts of hair coming out of his ears and from his nostrils. His skin looked like he could use more sun, but he appeared decent enough aside from that.

The woman called to the daughter, whose name was Ariella.

"Ariella, baby, come check out the beautiful girls here."

Up close, Claudine thought she had a lofty carriage, almost certainly reminding her of Annette and her little clique. Or maybe it was all just in her mind due to her morning encounter with Annette earlier.

Claudine could see Annette preening as the girl called Ariella stood in front of her a little while longer than she had done the other girls she inspected. But she sailed past her after a while to end up in front of Claudine.

Ariella looked at the mousy girl in front of her, who had a certain kind of beauty but, indeed, was not as pretty as she was. Her parents always told her that she was the most beautiful girl on the planet, and that was a fact.

"Do you like her?" asked her mum.

"Yes, she will do quite nicely. I do pick her to be my foster sister." She smiled back at her mum.

Shearwater

I was four months pregnant, weighing over two hundred pounds, and my heart was failing from experimental treatments forced on me as a child. My doctor looked at me with clinical detachment and told me I was in a death sentence: if I kept the baby, I would die, and if I tried to remove it, I would die. Desperate for a lifeline, I called my father, Francis Acosta, to tell him I was sick and pregnant. I expected a father's love, but all I got was a cold, sharp blade of a voice. "Then do it quietly," he said. "Don't embarrass Candi. Her debutante ball is coming up." He didn't just reject me; he erased me. My trust fund was frozen, and I was told I was no longer an Acosta. My fiancé, Auston, had already discarded me, calling me a "bloated whale" while he looked for a thinner, wealthier replacement. I left New York on a Greyhound bus, weeping into a bag of chips, a broken woman the world considered a mistake. I couldn't understand how my own father could tell me to die "quietly" just to save face for a party. I didn't know why I had been a lab rat for my family’s pharmaceutical ambitions, or how they could sleep at night while I was left to rot in the gray drizzle of the city. Five years later, the doors of JFK International Airport slid open. I stepped onto the marble floor in red-soled stilettos, my body lean, lethal, and carved from years of blood and sweat. I wasn't the "whale" anymore; I was a ghost coming back to haunt them. With my daughter by my side and a medical reputation that terrified the global elite, I was ready to dismantle the Acosta empire piece by piece. "Tell Francis to wash his neck," I whispered to the skyline. "I'm home."

"Anya, a 'wolfless' in a world of powerful werewolves, was invisible, drowning her sorrows and desperately lonely. One drunken text, a desperate cry for attention, accidentally reached the Alpha, pulling her into his terrifying orbit. Now, she's trapped, a pawn in his game, forced to warm his bed while he waits for his true mate, her heart breaking with every stolen moment. As a 'wolfless' in the Blackwood Pack, Anya felt like an outsider, always yearning for a connection. One night, in a drunken haze, a misdirected text meant for her best friend landed in Alpha Declan Blackwood's inbox: ""Send me something hot."" Minutes later, the most powerful, terrifying man in the Pack stood at her door, claiming her with a possessive kiss that ignited a dangerous, unwanted fire. The next morning, his cold indifference shattered her world. Publicly humiliated and instantly fired, Anya became a pariah. Her dying mother's urgent need for a million-dollar heart transplant left her with an impossible choice: accept the Alpha's cold, transactional marriage proposal or watch her mother die. She became his ""placeholder"" wife, a contract, not a partner, all while battling a confusing attraction to the man who treated her as property. Why did he demand her, only to remind her constantly of her worthlessness, especially when everyone knew he waited for his true mate? Her world crumbled when she overheard Declan tell his returning ""true mate,"" Kristin Larsen, that Anya was ""just a substitute."" Despite the crushing betrayal and a strange, unyielding pull, Anya, fueled by her mother's desperate need, vowed to survive this gilded cage and reclaim her life before she lost herself completely."
