/Penelope's POV/

We have been surprisingly moving along with each other, he's been acting as if I'm this kind of precious gem, he has taken away my laptop, wanting me to do nothing but sleep, I sighed munching on the snacks that were sitting at my front.

“Penelope, I want to see you,” Hunter informed me, sitting close to me, I looked at him, wondering what was going on with him, he didn't call me Penelope often.

“What is that? Is there anything you want to talk to me about?” I asked, fear creeping into my body, I looked at his stone-cold face.

“I have arranged your passports, you need to leave,” he informed me.

“Leave to where? Is this a prank? Are you being serious? Leave to where? Don't shut me out. Please talk to me, let me know what's happening.” I pleaded, wondering what was happening with him.

“I'm not playing pranks with you, I know I have been holding you against your wish, I know you have done a lot of things and this is my chance to let you go.” He reminded.

    /Hunter's POV/“Bella, I have fucked up again,” I called my sister, knowing she is the only one who can save me after hearing Big Drive complaints about a strange number calling him to come and pick up Penelope's car.“What did you do again? You have wronged her again? How many times will you keep fucking up? Do you think she would continue being generous till you ruin her life, you can't keep on messing up and apologizing,” Bella chastised, I held my mouth, not knowing what to tell her, I was afraid of the worst happening to her, did she jump inside the lake or what?“I don't know what came over me, I was pondering on how lucky I am to have such a sweet and caring soul attached to mine despite my wrongdoings and all when, the thought of her being cooped up and suffocated became overwhelming, it was as if I was told to let her go,” I explained, knowing the explanation is shitty but I thought she wasn't happy by my side.“Have you ever tried listening to yourself?

But to my surprise, I found the entire front yard filled with an enchanting sight - thousands of vibrant red roses, arranged in a breathtaking display.As I took in the breathtaking scene, I noticed a beautifully handwritten apology letter attached to one of the roses. “Ew, he doesn't even have fine writing, how am I expected to see this??” I scoffed looking at his scrawny writing which I badly wished looked like his face, maybe I would have given in to death instead of marrying him.The letter, penned by a certain someone, expresses his deepest regrets and remorse for the argument they had. The words on the page are filled with love, sincerity, and a genuine desire to make things right.In the letter, my husband acknowledged his mistakes and took full responsibility for his actions. He explained how much I meant to him and how deeply sorry he was for a

I wish u could go with you badly, but dealing with jetlag and pregnancy symptoms is not a good combination for me right now,” I admitted, pouting and thinking of how lonely the house was going to be, how I was going to sleep was another problem of its own because I've gotten so used to cuddling him at night since I got back from my trip to the secret manor, up until today, I did not tell him what the house looks like and what it is used for, I kind of have my suspicions that Big Drive knows about it but he hasn't said anything so far.“It is a three-day trip, I can come earlier if it's possible for me, the only thing I would enjoy doing to sleeping with you in my

    /Penelope’s POV/“I should be asking who you are instead,” She retorted while I folded my hands, this was going to be a showdown.“Interesting, pass me that popcorn,” Bella mumbled, I tuned her out looking at the blonde putting on a tight gown that restricted her airflow, she looked like a choked baby doll, with her clownish makeup.“Wait, I should not even be asking if you're okay because you're not. You look like you won't be able to breathe in a few minutes, should I offer you an oxygen mask? Or did my husband hire you for some kind of cosplay I don't know about? Big Drive, what does she do for a living?” I questioned, my eyes fixated on hers, her eyes lit up, and I could see the invisible smoke coming out of her nose, too bad I don't give a damn about her.“Do you know who you're talking to?” She fumed, taking a step towards the car, I looked at her again, rolling my eyes and pursing my lips, in my next life, I would rather not marry an eye candy, fighting daily because of a man i

    /Hunter’s POV/“Hi wifey, how are you doing? Sorry, I could not call earlier, things got a little overbearing and busy here, so had to sort things out before settling down, I'm just getting to the penthouse,” I sighed, walking around the familiar room, my eyes drifted to the glass windows, this city is beautiful when it's viewed from the place, that's one of the main reasons why I love this penthouse. “Oh really, I had a long day yesterday, I was even too tired to wait up for your call, it's been a rollercoaster all through yesterday, from trying to pretend that Bella and I are just normal humans to meeting an obsessed crazy ex-girlfriend of yours.” She sighed, and tiredness seeped into her tone effortlessly, all I could just think about was massaging the stress out of her while I listened to her daily activities.“Crazy ex-girlfriend? That's funny because I don't even remember having a girlfriend before you came along, I don't do relationships, I only do flings with no strings attac

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

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| “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

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

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????

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

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.

    |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

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
