SHE CALLED A MAN

××××××××××××××××

The soft sound of a door clicking open was heard and seconds after, the head of a girl popped out, checking her surroundings.

Slowly, Penelope closed the door behind her softly, her head still swaying from left to right for anyone.

Slowly, she walked towards her left to the path that led to the stairs instead of the elevator, even though it was night, this house was illuminated quite well as bright lights shone her way down the flights of stairs, her steps almost inaudible as she made it to the main stair ramp, her eyes looking down and thankfully, there was no one in the large parlor, a t least that was what she imagined since the lights there were turned off, only a deem lamp shone.

Her eyes moved to where she was certain she had seen it earlier, and a smile covered her lips when she saw it, a landline phone.

She had seen it when Dorian brought her back here.

Quickly, she made her way down and soon she stood in front of the phone.

    MONSTER×××××××××The roads of lake City was busy as it could be with vehicles of different sizes and colour swarming it's roads,a man, having brown short hair had just parked his motorcycle along the side of the lonely parking lot of the central hospital where he would go to visit a patient.After making sure his cycle was securely parked,he pulled off his helmet and was about hanging it against the hilt of the bike when he felt strong presence behind him.Turning around,he got slightly taken aback at the sight of three men,one with slightly long grey hair which flowed down his shoulder,while the other two having short black hair.Disregarding them,he turned around and placed his helmet on his bike but when he heard approaching footsteps,he turned around but before he could discern a thing,he felt a tight punch land across his face,the pain of it earned a groan from him,he hadn't realized those men were here to hurt him so he didn't prepare but it didn't seem to matter as another pun

    CHOCOLATE ×××××××××××Today would make it approximately a week since Penelope had been brought here without any advances on her being let off.It was another morning of her waking up and either just staring into space or just ignoring Dorian whenever he came to her which he hadn't done as of two days now. Only that Ginger-haired man, Felix, seemed carefree and easygoing as far as what she had deducted could grasp.Today she stood by the edge of the window as she had come to do every day now; staring out, she sighted the surreal sight of the garden.She remembered the first time she had entered that g; it was more beautiful inside than it was from afar.The flowers were breeds of different kinds and others which she couldn't recognize, the cool breeze and quiet environment, she found herself wanting to go there again, and so she left this suffocating room but regretted her decision immediately she got down to the palace.The sight of so many men huddled in one place made her heart lea

    LETTING HER GO×××××××××××××××Slipping into a robe,Dorian used his hand to comb his messy hair backwards when he heard something from his room.He had come back not more than twenty minutes ago and met his mate already asleep.At least today she slept on the bed instead of the couch, although he usually moved her to the bed whenever she slept on the couch..His head snapped to the door of his closet at the sound of something clattering.Was Penelope awake?Alertly,he quickly rushed into the room and as presumed,she was awake.He was about approaching when he took notice of the heart shaped glass container which was completely shattered on the floor, little chocolate bits on every side.Did she throw it?He frowned."You don't like it?"He asked softly, taking steps closer to the bed but when he got close,she got off the bed and backed away.He frowned genuinely confused but when he went further and she repeated same thing of backing away,his frown deepened.Why was she suddenly acti

    VIDEO CALL××××××××××Penelope had thought Dorian's question as one of his tricks and plays where he toyed with her but currently with the wind grazing softly through her hair as they rode on the highway,she understood he wasn't just kidding or trying to trick her. She was really going home, how he knew the route to her home without her saying a word remained a mystery which she didn't care to solve.His hand held hers as she sat by the further end of the window but that was the least of her cares as all that lingered her mind was that,she would finally be going home.They soon got to a neighborhood which she recognized,LC district and soon,they were approaching her house.Excitement was less of a word to describe what Penelope felt when she sighted her father by their little garden, engrossed with the little plants.Even before the car would stop, her hand made it to the knob and a frown formed between her brows when she realized the car was locked."Open the door"Her voice ca

    Dorian had thought he'd be able to stay away from his mate for at least few days or perhaps the rest of the day but he was wrong,he couldn't even stay from her for some few more hours of the night. He was restless,worried,bothered,he couldn't help the massive emotions and thoughts which swelled up in him and the next thing he knew was him already in his wolf form, racing towards the direction of his mate's home.Traveling in this form was way easier and faster and soon,he stood in their yard.He didn't know where her room was located but from his instinct,he let her scent lead him to a window half the size of a regular window.In there,the lights were turned on illuminating the room and everything in it but the only thing his wolf focused on was the girl sitting by the side of her bed.She had a book in her hand and seemed to be so engrossed in it until she looked up,a slight frown on her face.He wondered what was wrong as she placed the book down and began walking towards the

    A WOLF ×××××××"I know I've said this before but I'll say it again,you are by far the best chef I know Penny"Josh complimented when it was just the three of them sitting on the table while having their dinner which Penelope had cooked."Second best chef you know, don't forget your mother"Peter corrected."Mom's cooking Will always remain the best" Penelope reckoned."Yeah" Josh replied,his tone lowering a little"And hopefully soon, we'll be able to taste her cooking again"He completed but unknown to them,their father's expression turned sullen. A mess was going on in his head which he needed to tell his kids but didn't know how."Jo, penny," . He called their attention and in unison,they answered 'yes dad'."Your mother..". He hesitated "Your mother she..."NO,he stopped,he couldn't tell them,he wouldn't."Your mother's a very wonderful woman,the most I've seen,and I'm sure she'll be fine soon"Lier!.He was lying to himself and he knew it.

    CRY FOR ME SWEETHEART ×××××××××××××××××××××××Raphael stared intently into the restaurant and his gaze hardened each time she laughed with them,her lips was grazed with a warm smile,one she would never show in front of him. She talked to them so easily and laughed with no tension in the air,same tension she showed him. His gaze hardened even more when he saw how one looked at her,he would strangle the fool. A mischievous smirk cornered his lips as he walked briskly into the restaurant. He approached her and from behind,leaned in giving a Peck to her cheek.She turned around and he watched as panic clouded her eyes."Hello gorgeous"He went to sit on the empty seat beside her and put his arm across her shoulder, possessively."R-Raphael,what are you...how..""So these are the bastards you lied to me for"He said turning his attention to the two men who sat across the table, both looking at him with a frown."Raphael please, they're just my colleagues""Tell them to leave"He said no

    I'm here for your daughter×××Penelope was done making breakfast,she would be going to her mother later today.Presently,she was in the garden with her dad tending to some tomatoes which had surprisedly ripened faster than anticipated."Just few days of you being back,the plants already blossomed, I've always told you these plants have favourites among us"Peter said causing her to laugh at his silly joke.Although she also Wondered why the plants in their garden grew faster whenever she was the one tending to them,even in her 4th grade,when they had a gardening test,her plants usually came out top and best,her mother always referred it to her as having a magic torch and maybe she did,for plants she guessed.The sound of a car pulled their attention to the front yard or perhaps only her father's attention as she kept tending to the plants but when she heard her father gasp,she looked up and almost gasped herself.Right in their yard,she could see Dorian approaching them,his steps pre

    Men aren't slow××××××××××××××Beaming with excitement, Penelope bolted out immediately the car came to a halt.Unlocking the small gate barrier in front of her,she treaded towards the girl who at first,looked confused of the personal approaching but at recognition."Penelope?"She still had a frown between her brows but once her sister neared,her eyes widened"Penelope!"Slamming into her sister's tall frame,both girls embraced each other while enveloping themselves in a tight longing hug.It felt like ages since they last saw each and now,it felt like ages before they would pull away."Oh my gosh!,I missed you so much penny?"Ana raved hugging her elder sister even tighter than before"When did you come back?"Penelope asked, pulling away from their now nearly suffocating hug"Yesterday"The younger girl who seemed at least 18-19 beamed with excitement"I asked of you but Josh Said..."She paused as though remembering something she was told and her eyes widened delightfully"Penny

    A fight××××××××Punches flew and fists braced tightly at her jaw as Penelope continuously failed to avoid few of this girl's attacks.Kate,that was her name."Why hesitate in accepting a fight?"She had asked earlier when Penelope tried to back away from her challenge"Wait?" She paused, then her face turned amused"IS OUR LUNA SCARED?""I accept" Penelope .Interrupted within a heartbeat.Clearly she could see what this girl was trying to pull,she attempted humiliating her,and seemed to be doing a very good job.Penelope had to ward off Felix or any other lycans every once in a while whenever they tried to intervene for her,she didn't wish this to be a petty fight,even though this girl was way stronger than her,both in strength and martial arts.Ack!Penelope felt a long ring in her head when she failed to block a punch to the face,and oh hell,it hurt so bad.Another kick collided with the side of her stomach bringing her down in a fall, She could feel a metallic taste in her mouth.

    FATHER, SHE'S MY MATE×××××××××××××××××××××The next day,Half asleep, Penelope stirred around to the body next to her, seeking comfort from the morning cold.She couldn't feel his usual hand draped by her waist but still,she clinged closer, although soon,she got confused cause usually, his body heat was warmer than this during the mornings,also,her hand which was placed by his chest couldn't feel the muscular build which she sometimes shamelessly explored while he was asleep.Sinking her head closer,she basked in his relaxing minty scent while squeezing his body tightly to feel more warmth but why did he feel different today.A chuckle escaped her lips once she opened her eyes and realised she had been hugging a pillow the whole time, quickly,she looked by his side but the man wasn't there.Where was he.The bathroom was her first guess until her eyes landed on the white paper placed neatly by his side of the bed.With a curious frown,she read it's content and it seemed to have been

    ñHands up fatty×××××××××××××Minutes bulked into hours as Penelope trained non stop,she even refused to go on a break during mid day when Dorian suggested one and now it was already heading towards evening.She had learnt more defense skills in one day and her striking willingness to all this made Dorian a bit curious as to why she suddenly wanted to know all these, although a certain part of him was happy to the fact his mate saw a need to hold some responsibilities towards their people,it pleased him to no bound. The bright blue sky had already turned dark by the time Penelope was done being taught how to man-hand a gun.She wouldn't deny,it felt heavier than she expected and the fact she yelled after her first shot,proved how scary the experience was but soon after much learning,she could throw around two shots holding the gun with a single hand.Her fast learning skills were impressive and even Felix who was the receiving end of all her torturous hits during training was beguile

    Ouch!×××××With her body engulfed in his embrace and his arms wrapped around her like she would vanish if he let go.A certain feeling washed over Penelope's being and unconsciously,her hand moved to rest against his back.That minty lemon scent of his cloathed her nostrils and shamelessly,she bashed in it.It was then,she realized how much she had missed this man and how much more she missed being in the safe chambers of his arms.She felt her chest carve in at the fact she had ever thought of leaving him because of the opinion of a single shifter.Heck, she wouldn't bring herself to let those words poke into her,rather,she would try to prove each and every word that moron said to her wrong.If she didn't wish to leave him,at least she would try to be of worth to stand beside him.She had to.She would."I want to learn how to fight"She muttered from his chest and could feel his muscles tense up.Ever so slowly,he pulled away but his hand remained on her like he was scared she woul

    GOING MAD×××××××××××Fluttering her eyes open,the bright light made her squint them slightly closed.Once the light didn't affect her eyes anymore,she opened them and her surroundings slowly became revealed but with this,came a frown between her brows.She was in a large room, neatly decorated and dominated with the colour of blue and white.The last she remembered she was in a dark place.Where was she?"You're awake"A voice pulled her attention to the man who had just entered the room. His short curly hair neatly plied to the side and his well built body hidden behind a blue shirt and jean trousers.At first,her eyes keened down trying to see who this person was and at realisation, they widened"Lucas?"She muttered as though in denial of her own voice."H-how_where_what...""You're in my house"He began so as to clear off her confusion but he seemed to have made it even worse."How did I get here?"She asked in wonder cause the last she remembered,she was in that dark space where

    POISON××××××××In front of a pool which had lights illuminating from each sides of it's ends and angles sat a man on a white mounted bench,a wine glass in his hand The bright coloured lights of the lamps on each of their posts casting a fine hue to his charming face,the cold breeze grazing through his white hair which was let down.His eyes were focused on the twinkling stars in the night sky while he sipped from his glass feeling the liquid run down his throat.He shut his eyes resting his head behind him whilst letting himself enjoy the surreal silence when suddenly, his ears caught a sound from afar and his eyes shot open.Looking to his right, he frowned at the sight of the woman who had gotten out of the house and when he saw her heading out,he immediately got up.Where was she going.At first,he wanted to let her but the moment he saw her walking towards the garden side,he couldn't help but follow, although,he kept a good distance away.
