/Penelope’s POV/“Stop that research, or your husband will die, X.” My phone vibrated on the table, and I looked at the strange number while reading it out, oops, he now has the ball to message me.“Fuck, this text was sent from a burner phone, he will know better than to text me with a normal phone,” I concluded, before pulling my laptop out, trying is better than not doing anything, I looked at the number while my fingers flexed on the keys, but to no avail.“What are you stressing yourself on? You look like you will pass out soon, in a better way to put it, you look like shit.” Bella commented, I raised my eyes from the laptop, I could picture my face right now, frustration clouding my face, I managed to slip a tired smile to my face before replying to her.“Isn’t that a beautiful comment from my dear sister-in-law? Thank you very much, you’re the best in the world.” I replied, sarcasm dripping in my tone, the bed dipped as a whip of mahogany strands hit me in the face, and my eyes
/Hunter's POV/“Hunter, you need to take the nearest flight, it's urgent!”Bella's panicked voice filtered into my ears, and the sound of keys hitting the floor resounded in the room, what the heck?! My heartbeat accelerated, it was as if my heart was going to beat out of the ribcage, my blood rushing wildly in my veins, my lips quivering but no coherent speech was formed, I snapped myself out of the shock, storming back to reality.“What happened? Is she in labour already?” I asked, my fingers typing away on the keyboard, a message to my pilot to get the plane ready in ten minutes, putting the phone on speaker, I got to work, packing my loads and dumping everything in the briefcase, anticipating the urge to get the fuck out of here.“Nope dummy, she is not in labour, she fell down the stairs while we were running, I didn't mean to cause her harm, I begged her to stop but she didn't, she's being checked as we speak, although the doctor said she's not in a critical condition, but he sti
/Penelope's POV/“It's good to see that you're awake, how are you feeling today, are you in any kind of pain?” A voice sounded indistinctive, I tried to adjust myself to the voice, I forced myself to open my eyes, I was met with the blurry face of the familiar figure in a white lab coat, his black-framed glasses resting on his nose, I blinked rapidly, a sigh escaped my lip.“You can do it, just open those honey Brown eyes for me, take a deep breath and open your eyes, you're good to go,” another familiar voice encouraged, my dopamine level increased a thousand times, it was as if a strong pull snatched me out of what I was feeling because my eyes opened immediately, staring back at six pairs of eyes.“Hello dear, I am sure you recognize me, I've introduced myself a million times to you. How are you doing today?” The new HD version of the blurry face I was with a pair of glasses resting on his face questioned, giving me one of his infamous smirks.“I- am” A voice resounded in the room,
/Penelope’s POV/“Oh, I have news about your offspring,” He informed before walking out, the three of us looked out ourselves before echoing the same word.“Oh my gosh, why are you both just telling me about this now??? To top it all, you’re having twins? I’m gonna be a grandmother!!! I can't believe it! Latest grandmother!” A screech resounded from the older version of Bella, her feet paddling happily across the hallway, jumping in excitement.“Because of this same reaction, when will you be moving your things here? Because I know it will be very soon,” Hunter mocked a similar smile to his happily displayed on his face, my face reddened in embarrassment, while I tried my best not to freak out at how she was smouldering my face with kisses.“Are you sure we did not make any mistake in telling her soon? What’s the possibility that she would have killed us if we informed her after the delivery?” Bella suggested, looking at her brother with a scowl on his face, we were supposed to make i
/Penelope’s POV/“Yeah, I think I have some games, but it’s a surprise. Don’t stand up, you should just sit down, I will take care of you, you should not be lifting your fingers, ” My mother-in-law encouraged.“I wish I wouldn't have to lift my fingers, would it be okay to go through a c-section instead of pushing these babies out of me? After collecting a push present from you?” I croaked out, wiping the beads of sweat coating my forehead despite the air condition blasting at its highest level in the labour room.“You can do whatever you want to do, should I tell the doctors to perform a c-section instead? Pen you need to talk to me, let me know what you are thinking, it is not a crime if you go through with a c-section,” Hunter’s worried face loomed over mine, ignoring the joke that was hidden in my statement.“If I don't know you so well, I will just assume that you're choosing the c-section so you ensure that my vagina will remain tight, or do you have another intention?” I joked,
/Penelope’s POV/“I am sure we won't be looking underneath my trousers because I am straight, and even if I'm gay, I don't like guys like you. But I may have iron balls,” He shrugged, paging someone on his phone and switching to his professional mode after glancing at me.“It's time, let's take her to the theatre.” He declared.“Can I see them? They are so beautiful. They look like their father I guess.” I rasped, dizziness clouding my features while my eyes fought to stay awake, my bone was exhausted at this point, I looked at my husband and smiled weakly at him.“Yeah, sure. You can see them, after all, you’re their mama. On the contrary, I think they look like you.” Hunter chuckled, handing over the piece of joy wrapped in a blue blanket.“He came out first, right? I don’t think he looks like him, look at his tightened lips and furrowed eyebrows, I wonder what is going through his little mind, he should have nothing to think about, and yet he looks like the burden of the whole coun
\Penelope’s POV\“Fuck, we are under attack, they are quite a number but we still have like five minutes to regroup.” Bella’s panicked voice alerted us all. I looked at my husband and the only visible reaction I could point out was his tickled jaw and pure annoyance.“This is not the right time,.we should not be welcoming new babies with gunshots and blood shed, but if it is what they want, that is what they will get. They should not have woken the sleeping lion” The former Don of the demon Mafia growled, standing up to his full height. All traces of his previous smile vanished into thin air while he put up a cold demeanour, his face was the perfect example of the calm before storm.“The real question is do we have time to call for back or should we face them head on and wait for back up to join us?” Bella questioned looking at my husband who was looking too calm for this situation.“ I just sent Liam a text about what is happening, Big Drive and Gabriel are outside. Mama, you have s
|Penelope’s POV| “Raise your hand above your head, you are outnumbered now.” A barrel pointed at his head made me sigh in relief, a deep exhale left my lips and my accelerating heart came to a sudden halt. “ I said raise your fucking hand up before I blow out your brain, the only thing keeping you alive is the saddened fact that I don’t want your filthy blood to taint my babies' bodies, so now do as you told before I change my mind.” My husband's firm warning reverberated in the room while my head spun with a sudden idea, their operation is a surprise and if he is truly the one behind it, it should be better and more bloody than this…. unless something is going on without our knowledge. “Fuck, I don’t think he is the one behind it, he was used as a distraction, where the fuck is your dad……… oh Fuck, it is Bella. Go and find Bella.” I urged with a panicked voice, my eyes flickered in the motherfucker’s direction, and shivers and terror ran through my spine when I saw a knowing grin o
