Chapter: Chapter 12- Her Lonely PastPenelope closed her eyes gasping for air. She only thought that the king was a crazy man, no insane... "You made a promise, King Zephyr! It was a promise and promises are meant to be kept!" Penelope uttered calmly, trying to stop herself from losing control of herself."Oh," Zephyr muttered softly, he took a step backward and that made Penelope calm. She thought she was saved from his trap but instead...Zephyr carried her in his arms and without waiting for her reaction he threw her on the bed. He was losing control and the more she refuse to give him her blood, the more he yearns to have a taste of her blood. "Ahh!" Penelope gasped in fear. Her eyes were a bit misty, her eyes were bloodshed red, and she was close to tears. She shut her eyes to stop those scenes from playing on her mind. At that moment everything felt so familiar and it was driving her nut.Zephyr noticed the change in her heartbeat. He stopped and finally decided to take a look at her. Fear! That was the first exp

Chapter: Chapter 11- DesiresPenelope closed her eyes for a few minutes, to stop the tears from her eyes from falling. Though, for a long time now she's been planning to leave this house, the environment, and most especially get far away from her sister. She wasn't expecting to be this way. Never in her wildest dream would she have imagined that she would be trapped in a relationship with the king. If only she had not let her legs wander around the castle the other evening.Mrs. Leos placed her hand on her daughter's shoulder, comforting her. "Your father and I will try to appeal to the king, Penny. We will do everything to make sure you are safe, I promise."Penelope opened her eyes, nodding her head in approval. She could only hope that the king will be reasonable enough to let her go. Unfortunately, that won't be happening any time soon."He's waiting for you," stated Mrs. Leos. She signed tiredly before walking out of her daughter's room.Penelope swept her haze around the room like she was admiring it for th

Chapter: Chapter 10- Betrayal Penelope was in her chamber, still in a daze. There was a knock on her room's door which brought her out of her world. A brown-haired maid walked in with her head bowed. "Good Morning, Lady Penelope!", greeted the maid with a bow."Good Morning," responded Penelope half-heartedly. Ever since she stepped foot into the palace, strange things have just been happening to her and she so much hated it here."My Lady, the king wants you to dine with him in his room," the young maid said, still bowing.Penelope scoffed annoyingly, "Tell the king that I'm not hungry.""But..." The maid bit her tongue when she realized what she was about to do. There was a rule in the palace for the maids which was they were not allowed to question their masters. Though she was sent here by the king she had no right to question her decision even though she knows that the lady's response might cost her to face the king's wrath."I will, my Lady," the maid responded, walking out of Penny's room.Penelope let out

Chapter: Chapter 8- His WorldZephyr sat down on his throne in the courtroom. His presence alone was overwhelming but his cold gaze was enough to send shivers down their body. The smile that was once on his face was nowhere to be seen, it seems like that smile was meant only for Penelope. He gazed at members of the council as if he was watching his prey. And to him, they were no different from his prey.The room was silent, too silent which made it seem like they were paying tribute to a lost soul. But then, they were all afraid to give the king the report cause they were scared of the king's wrath. "I don't remember appointing animals as my ministers or do I?" questioned Zephyr but they all knew better than to reply to him. Just one mistake, that was what he need to have their head rolling on the cold floor."Don't tell me I appointed fools!" Zephyr said in a cold tone, glaring at the good of nothing men in front of him. He was supposed to be spending his time with Penelope, looking for ways to win her heart but

Chapter: Chapter 7-Her New Life"Pardon me?" Penny said, furrowing her eyebrows in the process."I will teach you that with time, Penelope. For now, just keep being my woman, will you?" Zephyr asked which will make anyone think that he was expecting an answer. But Penelope knows that he wasn't. He was barely toying with her feelings, only God knows how she ended up with a man like him. "I'm not your woman, my king," Penelope said firmly, her eyes were cold which made the smile on Zephyr's face grow wider. It was her cold eyes with the innocent aura exuding from her body that caught his attention when he first laid his eyes on her. Her innocence, the faux smile that's always on her face makes him so eager to see a real smile on her face. But one thing was certain, he was going to make sure that she falls so madly in love with him even if he has to go past through hell for that to happen."Time will tell, Penelope," Zephyr answered, not bothering to make her accept. He doesn't need her nor anyone else approval before
