PENELOPE~ ~

Several weeks passed by after getting assured by Giovanni to investigate the so-called Ned, and yet the asshole seemed to grow more bold, everyday.

Several days I watched how Ned came to the training ground to force Oliveria out of training, without taking permission from me..

It irked me, yet I kept waiting for Giovanni to take legal actions.

My suspicion kept growing whenever Oliveira returned the next day. She always returned with several bruises on her body, and yet wouldn't voice out.

Keeping the most sweet smile plastered on her face while masking the terror she was facing.

Did I ever complain how she has gotten an exact training gear, but has a long sleeve that seemed to cover her entire body and the bruises, slightly discomforting her?

No, I didn't.

I didn't want to intrude in her privacy.

At least, not yet.

Letting out a weak sigh, I dragged my eyes back to the ongoing training session.

"And one… two … We are done!" I yelled on top of my voice, watching every trai

    PENELOPE~ ~"You good?" Iris asked, nudging me back to reality.I nodded my head, slumping back on the chair and sighing. I would feel my ass hurting.I gazed up at the screen, which seemed to stretch from one end of the auditorium to the other. It was so large that it seemed to fill my entire field of vision, but my eyes were blank and uninterested.The only sounds in the room were the faint rustling of the guards eating their snacks and the soft whir of the projector. The silence was so thick that it felt almost suffocating, but my mind was numb and empty.But then I looked over at Iris. Her face was alight with joy and anticipation, her eyes fixed on the screen as she watched the movie.My eyes moved back to the empty seats scattered across the auditorium. Giovanni had made sure he bought the entire place, insisting it was for security purposes.He was crazy!How could he spend so much money?My chest was beginning to hurt just by the mere thought of how much he must have bought al

    GIOVANNI ~ ~"... I think we should set the patrols on the east first before going to the south, because from the lookout we've made, Alpha, we got to know the rogues mostly come from that area…"With my hands plastered on my jaw, I listened to Leon as he spoke, making circles on the large map that held the entire sketch of my pack and its border."If I'm to add, I'd say place about 17 men on patrol each day and have them report every single detail. Is that okay with you, Alpha?" Nate asked, and I gave a curt nod."Continue." I said to Leon, who nodded at me before he continued.He continued to explain, and my thoughts kept drifting back to when Penelope had almost been killed by these rogues.I wanted to know how they sleathly made their way into the forest without any notice.Then men quietened down as I sat up on my chair, my hands still set on my jaw. My fingers began to drum on the large table, a deep frown marred my face."I need to get something here…" My drumming stopped. "How

    GIOVANNI ~ ~My vision blurs as I run toward the training ground only for my steps to falter, on seeing the unconscious guards placed on Penelope, laying on the ground.My anger rises like a fiery inferno within me. My fists clenched tightly, my fingernails digging into my palms. Every breath feels labored along with my heavy strides.The training Hall's door was ajar, the sounds of a female screaming filled my ears.My blood chilled.The world around me seemed to dim immediately. I ran into the scene of Penelope under another man, who was trying to choke her to death, and his other hand trying to rip open her dress.My face contorts into a snarl, my eyes ablaze with a dangerous intensity. Every muscle in my body goes taut with tension, and I pounced.A primal howl escaped my lips, my hands transformed into massive, powerful paws as they wrapped around his neck, my feral strength lifting him effortlessly into the air."You touched what is mine…" I said in a dangerously low tone.Ned's

    So dirty!Shameful!Disgusting!I hated myself, my body! Hated this vulnerability.I felt like drowning!Disappearing even!The water cascaded over my body as I stood trembling beneath the steady stream.The memory of Ned's hands on me, his smell, his touch, the fear and helplessness I had felt, lingered in the air around me like a suffocating fog.I continued to scrub frantically at my skin, desperate to rid myself of the stains, real and imagined, that seemed to seep into every pore of my skin.The soap and sponge in my hands were a feeble defense against the overwhelming sense of violation that consumed me.It wasn't even enough. My tears kept flowing as well as the water…I couldn't even breathe properly.I closed my eyes and focused on the sensation of the hot water as it beat against my skin, almost as if it could wash away the shame and fear that clung to me like a second skin.But no matter how hard I scrubbed, the feeling of filth and worthlessness seemed to seep deeper, stain

    PENELOPE ~I paled away before my blood slowly began to boil.Ned had escaped from prison, and was now on the loose.How was that even possible?I could feel my anger rising, my hands clenched into fists.I wanted to find that stinky disgusting man, myself, to make sure he was brought to justice.My mind raced with different thoughts of what I would do if I found him, while Giovanni watched me."Wait a second…" I scowled. "Am I being played a prank? How can Ned escape the prison when he was surrounded by a troop of soldiers? And then he just vanishes in thin air, just like that?" I was perplexed.Giovanni squeezed his eyes shut and rubbed his temples before leaning on the wall."He got several pack warriors killed, I have no idea how he did that but no one found a trace of him. It was as though he vanished in thin air, and no one seemed to notice, not even the border guards nor the dungeon guards."I gave him a look which seemed to say 'whatever he was saying sounded ridiculous to me'

    GIOVANNI ~ ~The door creaked open and then shut. I made my way to the bar in my home, which was dark and quiet, the only light coming from the bottles of alcohol lining the shelves.I specifically designed this bar, a few days after becoming an Alpha.Gleaming bottles of expensive liquor were arranged on a rack behind the counter, their labels all carefully facing outward.The countertop was made of polished marble.I took a deep breath, the scent of fine spirits filling my senses. I approached the counter, running my hand over the polished marble.I took a seat and let my eyes wander over the bottles of liquor, their names familiar and exotic.The bar was a sanctuary, a place where I could escape from the pressures of the outside world.A place where I could let my defenses lowered, my walls crumbling. A place where I could let my emotions out, without fear of judgment.I was free to be myself, to cry if I needed to, to be vulnerable. The bar was like a friend, a haven where I could

    GIOVANNI ~ ~"I'm… I'm so sorry…" Penelope quickly apologized, bending down to pick up the shattered glass flask.Leon rose to help her, eliciting a growl and a glare from me. He froze."I'll help my mate!" I said in a possessive tone, walking closer to Penelope who stood awkwardly, and I began to aid her in picking the shards of glass.But why on fucking earth was I picking up gas shrads when I could order servants to sweep here clean.Using that opportunity, I took her hands in arm, examining if she had a cut on her palms. Seeing nothing, I reluctantly let go of her hands, moving closer to stand beside her.Leon and Nate shared a look but said nothing, I didn't want to care about what they were thinking either."Let's sit." I say when no one spoke again.Penelope let me lead her to the bar bench where we sat. Penelope lowered her head and said nothing while I let her thoughts drift.The Devil and the werewolves for over a hundred years had an Armistice. From generations to generatio

    GIOVANNI'S POV~My jaw clenched as I observed my warriors, their determination etched on their faces. My eyes gleamed with pride, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction as I watched them push themselves beyond their limits. "Keep going!" I shouted, my voice resonating with authority. "Remember, the enemy never sleeps. You must be prepared for anything!"One of the warriors faltered, gasping for breath, but I was there in an instant, grabbing him by the shoulders. "Never give up!" I roared, my eyes blazing with intensity. "You're stronger than you think!"He nodded, gathering his strength and rejoining the others. I watched, as they continued to fight, their bodies glistening with sweat.Suddenly, the air was pierced by the sound of my phone ringing. Nate approached, holding out the device. "Alpha, Luna has been trying to reach you," he said, his brow furrowed.My heart skipped a beat. I nodded curtly at Nate before turning to address my warriors. "Continue training! I ex

    PENELOPE'S POV ~A few days passed, and despite Giovanni's efforts to convince me to talk to my father, I stood against it. The last thing I wanted was to get into a fight with Giovanni, so he let me be.My health had miraculously improved, and I could go about my daily activities without any problems. We had the most mind-blowing love-making and rough, dirty sessions throughout those days. Giovanni made me feel loved more than ever, and I didn't need a father popping out of nowhere to make me feel complete."Guess what, baby?" The door clicked open, and Giovanni strode in, holding a paper in his hand. He placed a kiss on my lips before sitting beside me. "What are you doing?"I looked down at the large book in my hand and shrugged. "As your wife and Luna, I think it's best to be familiar with all the fields you're in. I need to be your support everywhere, so I'm reading this book to gain more insights on how to run a business," I grinned at him, and he flashed me a proud smile, which

    GIOVANNI'S POV~"Good morning, baby," I whispered, kissing her crown before sliding off the bed to answer the door.Upon checking who it was and seeing it was the maid, I gestured for her to lower her voice. I didn't want her to wake Penelope up."Good morning, Alpha," she bowed, and I nodded. "The meal has been prepared according to your request. Should I bring it up or leave it at the dining hall?" she asked.I hummed, glancing back at Penelope, who was still fast asleep."Just leave it downstairs. We'll be coming down," I informed her and closed the door before she could respond.I returned to Penelope to find her wide awake."Hey," she said, and I beamed."Hey." I climbed onto the bed and placed a chaste kiss on her lips. "Good morning. How are you, darling?"She hummed before snuggling closer to me. "I feel better. I'm sorry that you were stressed because of me," she apologized, and I found myself smiling even more."Stop. It's my responsibility to take good care of you. I'm glad

    PENELOPE'S POV ~Giovanni gently slid me off him and tucked me beside him, covering my body with the sheets before pulling me closer."Talk to me now, baby. I'm all ears," he encouraged softly, his eyes filled with concern.I sighed and shut my eyes for a moment, gathering my courage before opening them again. "When I was 10, I remember when Violetta asked me to play with her. I didn't want to play in the woods because I knew Angus and his wife would be furious and punish me, so I rejected her idea and insisted we play indoors. But Violetta said she had gotten permission from her mother to play in the woods, so I reluctantly followed her."Giovanni listened attentively, his brow furrowed as he absorbed every word."We went into the woods, and Violetta wanted to mark the trees before we played. I waited for her, and when she returned, she said she had marked the trees to prevent us from getting lost. After playing for a while, I noticed boys flooding into the forest, heading towards ou

    PENELOPE'S POV ~His eyes darkened, the pupils dilating with the weight of his memories. "He threatened her always," Giovanni said, his voice hoarse. "Made her miserable and even warned her not to birth weaklings like her. He warned her that if she ever birthed any omega, he was going to kill the kids."As I listened to the horror unfolding, I could almost picture the fear in his grandmother's eyes."Fortunately for my grandmother," Giovanni continued, "she gave birth to two strong Alphas."I heaved a slight sigh of relief at that and nodded my head."My uncle, who was the eldest, was killed during a rogue attack," Giovanni said, his voice laced with sadness, "so my father had to step in as the next Alpha. But despite having a strong son just like my grandfather wanted, the asshole kept beating up my mother, abused her mentally and physically, and wrecked her emotionally. She became a shadow of herself, so weak to defend herself."The room felt colder, as if a chilling breeze had swep

    PENELOPE'S POV ~My mind awakens to a gentle rise and fall of a deep, rhythmic breathing. As my eyes fluttered open, I was met with the sight of a warm, huge figure beside me. It was Giovanni, his head gently resting on my breasts, his breathing slow and steady.My heart instantly filled with warmth and a deep sense of affection. I carefully shifted my arm, taking care not to disturb his rest, and gently placed a soft kiss on his lips. A soft smile crept across my face before I pulled away and just as I attempted to rise from the bed, I was struck by a sudden wave of soreness, my body protesting the movement.I tried to push past the aches, only to be thwarted by shaky, wobbling legs that refused to support me. A soft groan escaped my lips in frustration.Shit! Giovanni was a beast! I threw a glare at him before looking away.Glancing towards the window, I was met with the dark night sky, speckled with glimmering stars and a gentle half moon casting a soft glow into the room.

    GIOVANNI'S POV~“This goes off." I pointed at her thong. Claiming her lips again, I climbed on the bed,trapping her with my legs on both sides of her. Then, I released her lips and took her hardened nipple into my mouth, biting on it until she cried out.“Giovanni, please…”A moan escaped her mouth as I slipped two fingers into her sweet pussy, while continuing to suck on her nipples. I wanted to feast onher. Her sweet scent was driving me insane… driving my wolf crazy as well. I finger-fucked her for a little while until she was gasping for breath. The sounds of her moans were like the most beautiful music. A moment later, I pulled out my fingers, and went down on my knees.Holding on tight, I pulled the thong down her beautiful thighs, and then dove my face right between her thighs. I was going to devour Penelope’s pussy—and the thrill of it just made me so fucking hard, my dick hurt.I lifted my gaze to find her staring down at me with her lips slightly parted, breathless. Her top

I felt every blow, every agonizing moment twice over. She was dying, and so was I. I tried countless magic spells and relied on our bond, but I couldn't pinpoint her location..." He released a heavy sigh, and my heart clenched in my chest as I observed his torment.As he spoke, his voice trembled, each word cracking under the weight of his inner turmoil. It seemed as though he was on the verge of breaking down, and his distress was evident to everyone present.His shoulders sagged, the burden he carried nearly crushing him. His features twisted into a mask of hurt, his brows drawing together as he struggled to maintain his composure.I quickly averted my gaze, focusing on my toes as I bit my lip."Do you know why I haven't appeared for so many years, Penelope?"
