|Penelope’s POV|“Oh my God, who do we have here? The legendary female hacker?” A voice sounded so distant, yet so familiar, I tried to shake my head out of the trance or probably the injection effect because that was the last thing I saw and felt before I fell into an unending abyss of darkness.“Hmm,” I cried out weakly as I shivered from the bucket of icy water thrown at me, my eyes fluttered weakly but I couldn’t conjure the image of the person standing in front of me, all I could see were blurry images of a tall figure while a taunting laugh left his lips.“And if this isn’t the legendary Penelope Kings, the most beloved child of a Mafia family that was killed in an arson accident.” He chuckled, at the mention of my origin which not many people know about filtered into my ears, I fought harder to open my eyes, at this point, I almost pat myself on the back after seeing that I was progressing, because I could now see the silhouette of the owner of the familiar voice, but the perso
|Penelope’s POV|“Initially, I was always happy to follow him to his missions and watch him do everything, our parents had already taught be the basic stuff of how to shoot and aim using a toy gun and different plastic knives, I became saddened when I discovered that he reports to a higher authority, and I found out that the authority would be handing over the son who was almost the same age with me the Mafia. I knew there was no other way to attain power than to become the son’s second in command since his father’s under-boss had no child.” He continued spilling all of this information to me, I was convinced at a point, hoping it wasn’t what I was thinking, but who am I kidding? The universe doesn’t favour my opinion.“Everything was going well till you showed up, I was doubtful at first, thinking maybe the universe was playing a kind of trick I couldn’t comprehend, although I suspected the fact that there was a possibility that you might still be alive since your body wasn’t identi
|Hunter’ss POV|“Don’t tell me you plan on going there alone, No. That is a big fact NO…….Do you think we would always be lucky? You should know better than to go alone, Do you want your kids to be orphans? Look I do not fucking care about what you have to say it is either you go with a strategic plan or I won't let you go, I don’t mind brawling it out with you.” Bella faced me, Her pointy finger stabbing me in the chest as the throbbing veins in her neck became visible, her flushed face would have been so amusing if we weren’t in a deep situation.“Bella, my wife is there, I was only given the maximum of four hours, at least you should trust me. I know what I am doing and I know how to protect myself when the need to do so arises.” I assured her, placing my two hands on her shoulder in attempt to calm her down, but she glared harder at me before dropping my shoulder to the side.“That would have been a reasonable reason to let you go alone if we are not dealing with an unknown compo
|Hunter’s POV|“Now it is time to invite the guest of honour in, ladies and gentle men, can we jam our hands together for Mr Creepy's eyes?” She yelled, I rolled my eyes at her childish antics hoping and praying for endurance between these two. The door opened and I was met with black shiny shoes first stepping with his black neatly tailored tuxedo, my eyes narrowed at how he looked. Does he realize that we are not going for a parade?“Why are you dressed as if you are going for a fashion show, this is not a runway model shit and you know that, because I don’t understand what is with the neatly gelled hair and shiny shoes.” Bella voiced out my thoughts, I smacked my lips together while closing my eyes…. because moments like this make me believe that we are indeed siblings.“Mi Amor, you could have just easily said I look good, but it is a step. You at least pointed out the fact that you were attracted to me and that my fashion game is qualified to be displayed on a runway.” He shrugge
|Snake’s POV|“I need to inform my mom to take my profile off those dating sites, I have seen my wife,” I answered the both of them looking at the way her cheek turned red immediately, I think my favourite thing in this world is riling her up, and it is so unfortunate that she doesn’t like me, although I am sure she would come to terms with that very soon when she realizes that she is my newest obsession and there is nothing that would stop me from possessing her. Not even herself.“Now I know that you are truly delusional, you think I will be your wife truly? Are you serious? You better leave your name on the sites who knows if you will meet someone who will be able to cope with your attitude and ugly face.” She scowled at him, baring her teeth but all he did was raise his head in question.“That is new, you are the first person to tell me that I have an ugly face, I have always known about having an ugly personality because that is what people talk about most before they talk about
|Hunter’s POV|“Who are these?” I questioned after seeing the three people that walked in, the two men echoed ‘Don’. My gaze narrowed at the nerdy lady that walked inside with a shy yet confident demeanour, I was expecting her to greet but she only gave a side eye as an acknowledgement, I pursed my lips while I looked at him, and his playful grin made me raise my eyebrows up in question, hoping it wasn’t what I am thinking because I won't hesitate to blow this head because he had the effrontery to bring in his whore while he had been flirting with my sister.“Who are you?” Bella asked the nerdy lady, her hardened gaze gave me chills, she looked up before removing her glasses and extending her hands towards Bella, her green eyes caught my attention, it was hard for me not to identify the similarities between her and snake, especially with her uncanny color of eyes.“Hi, I guess you are the woman I was told about, you are so pretty and it is nice to meet you, you have a very pretty eye
|Hunter’s POV|“Don’t forget that a single mistake would cause your wife to be dead in a few seconds, so travel alone, make sure there are no trackers on you.” The reply came in less than a minutes making my heart pound furiously.“How am I going to picked up? I thought you gave an order that you don’t want anyone tracking me, I am sorry but I won't be able to hold off my men from springing action at the abduction of their Don. My suggestion is I can give an order for them to remain in the mansion while I leave, I would go farther, so you can pick me up at the lake since I assume you know my house area so well, that should not be a difficult task for you.” I texted him back, not wanting my men to know what was really happening with us and our oplans since we had agreed to keep it silent.“I think there might be a problem, what if someone rats us out about the both of us meeting?” I vocalized, ignoring the thud and the blood rushing in my veins wildly.“Fuck. How did I not think of th
/Penelope’s POV/I jolted up immediately at the sudden ice water splashed on me, you would think I would have gotten used to it, I felt thousands of needles pricking my skin as the water dripped from me, and my teeth chattered in a way it had never done before, not even when it was snowing down crystals of ice cube.Flipping my finger hair to the side, the wet strands stuck on my face, but that didn’t stop me from glaring murderously at the culprit, he gave me a bored look as if he had just done one of the most normal things in the world, clenching my bound fist, I closed my eyes while thinking about what a day this has been, I concluded that it is always the bad days that have lingered hours.“I guess your mouth doesn’t work anymore, you just had to involve icy water, well that makes it better because I would prefer that to hear your disgusting voice.” I snarled at him, baring my teeth, but I bet I looked more funny than threatening with the wet strands that stuck to my body and the
|Penelope’s POV| “Care to tell me what is going on between Snake and my sister? I knew they could not tolerate themselves before but I can't say anything about that since I was out for a long period.” He rasped, his breath sending shivers down my spine and making the hairs on my skin stand erect. “Maybe you should ask your sister, but I don’t want you to discourage her or say something bad about Snake, I know they may have difficulties in their relationship at first, but who doesn’t? Trust me, he is the best one for your sister and I can tell that he would never let anything happen to her, he is a very possessive one.” I pointed out while rubbing his chin and looking at our kids who seemed to be growing too fast because it was almost their first birthday. “Snake is not a good person, he is more cruel and canny than I am. I know he is the best option for her, but he has some traits that I don’t think Bella would be able to cope with, and I would not take it lightly with him if he hur
|Author's POV|“How is he doing? Is he stable now?”Penelope is anxiously waiting in the hospital, her heart pounding with worry. The doctor, with a gentle smile, walks into the room and sits down next to her. They take a deep breath and begin to explain."Penelope, I have some incredible news to share with you. Hunter narrowly escaped a gunshot that came dangerously close to piercing his heart. It was a truly close call, but thanks to the skill and expertise of our medical team, he is going to be okay." The doctor she had come to recognize gave her a warm smile.The doctor goes on to explain how the bullet grazed Hunter's chest, causing a superficial wound but miraculously missing any vital organs. He describes the meticulous surgery that was performed to remove any fragments and ensure his safety.As the doctor speaks, Penelope's worry begins to fade, replaced by relief and gratitude. She can't help but feel a surge of emotions, from shock and fear to overwhelming joy that Hunter wil
/Snake’s POV/“Little Tiger? You need to stop, or else you will kill him, he has to atone for his sins, so he doesn't deserve to die now.” I whispered into her ears before snatching her by the waist, firmly holding her curvy body before throwing her on my shoulder like a bag of potatoes, ignoring her sexy protests.“You asshole, drop me this instant!” She screeched, pounding on his back furiously, but a loud swat vibrated in the room, I had just spanked her, and my lips stretched into a smile before looking at the area where her brother was being operated on.“What the heck did you just do?” She stuttered, glaring holes into my butt, I had to stop myself from laughing so hard because I know she would give me a tough time the moment I dropped her.“You left me with no choice, I had to at least do something to shut you up, I would have preferred a kiss but I am sure you will killMe if I do that, ” I shrugged, watching as she became mute all of a sudden, if I had known that that was the
/Penelope's POV/“Oh my, isn’t this the legendary self-taught hacker? She looks beaten though, but it makes her look more feral. I am contemplating on taking this one for myself.” He faced my brother directly asking him for a Favour.“Oh No, I don’t think I want to realease her yet, I have a personal beef with her also.” He replied him, Snake’s face fell immediately.“We both have the same mission, to ruin her right? I assume you just want to torture her and kill her, I have so many things I want to do her, making her husband watch all I am going to do to her is more fun, don't you think?” He asked my idiotic brother, he contemplated before giving a nod but holding his hands out to stop him.“So what the heck do you want to do? Please let's get the shit over with…” Hubter snarled at the both of them, Snake eyes flickered at his direction, but he stopped “Let us have the fun now. How would you like to punish him???? You can always suggest different ways, what I want to do now is start
/Penelope's POV/“Yeah, all thanks to Hunter. You would probably be dead or running errands for small bosses, but you are about to kill this person who helped you, oh please. Add ingrate to your public profile so people would know who are what you truly are.” I scoffed, waiting for his response, His nose flared at the disrespect, flashing his non-existent fangs at me, I rolled my eyes and flipped him off.“And guess who is here? The fun is about to start!” He informed me while looking out the window, my heart rate spiked up the moment I heard the engine of the van approaching, the devious grin on his face was what made me afraid because he truly looked like a predator now.“I would love to see a reunion before doing the dramatic entry, I know he would be very surprised,” He reasoned, packing up his kinds of stuff to exit, but I won't let him slide easily.“Surprised?! That is a fucking outrageous because I can count eight words that would describe what he would feel at that moment, Be
