Jannie , like Iris had called, began to sashay her way into the kitchen, her heels clicking loudly on the tiles. The atmosphere in the kitchen froze. The lady looked like she didn't even notice, like she had something to say to me, but was cut off by Alice. "Jenny, please get out of here." Iris said coldly. She gave Iris a scornful look, turned to Catherine who was glaring daggers at her. Jannie straightened, her expression simply turning dull. I kept staring at this strange woman, who was making the atmosphere seem tense. Her murderous look returned once she pinned me with a look. "Hi." She muttered, and in a matter of seconds, her murderous look was gone, replaced with a soft expression which made me blink twice in astonishment. It was as though she was suddenly another person. "Well, your hi isn't welcome. Can you get out now?" Iris interrupted, taking a step, blocking Janie's view on me. "I just want to talk to her-" "Get lost, Jannie. Don't you dare try to cause any
Several days passed by and yet I couldn't recall when I last had enough rest. From the information given, I was told how Jannie was strangely going close to Penelope, and always asking her to hang out, making me slightly uncomfortable but I didn't bother to probe her intentions because I was so preoccupied with the latest situation in the pack, as we had been attacked yet again. Jannie knew she was going to get it from me if she dares to fucking misbehave. Past 3pm, I was already back at the office, entirely spent. To my surprise, Jannie was already there, sitting in my chair with a transparent crop top and a short gown that displayed her thick thighs. My eyes darkened. "You need something?" | grated out, unbuttoning one button on my shirt as I poured myself some water. Her eyes darkened with lust as she licked her lips. "I'm here to serve you, Daddy." Disgust filled me with the tone she used, I glared at her. "We made it clear that-" "Shh... let me do the talking. Penelope
For the first time in my life, I was frozen in place, my mind racing. I tasted metallic and then swallowed it. My dangerous glare moved from Penelope to Leon who had punched me. I couldn't even believe what I had just heard, my mouth slightly hanging open in shock. My eyes moved back to Penelope. My jaw clenched and my eyes narrowed. I tried to form words, but nothing came out. My thoughts were jumbled, my brain trying to process what had just happened. I felt like I was in a dream, unable to speak or move. All I could do was stare at Penelope. Her nerve of rejecting me. I wanted to lash at her. I wanted to ask her who the fuck she was to reject me. For the first time in my life, I felt worthless, that someone had rejected me. Not just someone but a fragile female, who had deceived me. I had rejected so many women in the past, played with many, they ended up kissing the ground I walked on, rejected so many marriage proposals and yet this fragile lady had in turn reject
I am leaving. Finally I looked at my reflection in the mirror, and I barely recognized the person looking back at me. My skin was pale, my eyes hollow and dull. There was a bruise on my left cheek, a reminder of the pain I had endured. My right arm was bandaged, a small red stain on the white fabric. I felt like a ghost of my former self, a shell without substance. I couldn’t couldn't remember the last time I looked in the mirror and smiled at the person looking back at me. I was tired, broken, defeated. I felt like a failure, and I hated myself for it. My wounds were slow to heal but who was I to blame? Me! I was so pathetic that I couldn't even morph with my wolf. I was aching with so much pain. I stared around the room I was in. I was back in Giovanni's mansion after two more days of being hospitalized. None of my family members had contacted me. I would never be surprised if my father said to my face that he wanted me dead. I only agreed to return back here to pack
Chapter 10: Giovanni POV I was dumbfounded! Shocked! A mere fragile woman had slapped me, not just slapped me but slapped me into silence. And for the first time in my life, I found it extremely amusing. Who would have thought a day would come when a woman would hit someone as ruthless as I am and wouldn't have her fucking neck detached from her body. I would even kill the seer who would dare try to foretell this bullshit. I blinked and re-blinked but it was no dream. Penelope had fucking slapped me and it had strangely stung. My mother hadn't even raised her hands on me but this fragile looking woman did, fearlessly. Her eyes were blazing with fire and I found it oddly cute. My head was spinning as her scent kept hitting my sense of smell. I couldn't even think straight. I wanted to snarl, snap at her, yell and probably teach her a lesson but all my head could think of were the nasty, filthy things I wanted to do to her while pinning her against this wall. I felt my mus
Chapter 11 Penelope "W-What?" My head was beginning to ring with thousands of warning bells, and my eyes widened in horror as I saw a tall man slowly begin to approach me. His expression was cold and in his hand, he held a mace, swinging it freely. I couldn't help but gulp at the thought of damage that thing in his hand would do to me. And for heaven's sake! I couldn't even heal like these shifters. What's wrong with these people and their heads? Before I could turn to Iris and protest, she gave me a sign language not to talk. My heart kept racing. I started sweating. This was so bad. Why would they even think I was some sort of warrior princess? "Luna Penelope accepts your challenge." Iris said giving me a look. My eyes widened, almost coming out of their sockets. Iris turned to the unknown man and muttered. "Nate, be gentle to our Luna." “ Do you want to choose a weapon or do I select one for you?" What was she even doing? Iris bent down, surveying the racks of weapons
Series of growls and rumbles left my throat as I waited for Penelope to convince her mate to let me speak to mine. I was restless and anxious. What if that hardhearted Giovanni doesn't even agree? "Kaia?" I stilled for a second and waited for whoever had called to repeat my name. "Kaia?" The voice called again. My tail wagged happily behind, me my tongue lolling out of my mouth. My ears perked up, flicking back and forth as I took in the voice of my mate. I howled happily, and wished I could merge fully with Penelope, to take full control. I gave a playful bark which showed how much I loved this moment, and he returned it. "I've always wanted to meet you... talk to you, cuddle you... I can't believe it's finally happening. Although we haven't cuddled yet. Haha! But I feel excited." I fast talked, scared Giovanni might leave the room any time soon. Braxton laughed, his laughter tingling my heart. "I love you too..." My cheeks warmed. "Please don't leave here. Don't let Pe
I took back a step back, pushing away from Giovanni, my heart pounding as I looked at him. His arms hung awkwardly at his sides, a look of confusion and guilt spreading across his face. His lips parted as if he were about to speak, but he quickly closed them again. His eyes glared at the door with utmost hatred, and I could tell he wished to kill the guard this instant. To him, the guard had come at the wrong time but to me! This was perfect timing. His eyes moved back to me, he stiffened, his fists clenched by his sides. I saw the conflict in his eyes, a struggle between the desire to beg me to stay and the shame of his actions. But I couldn't bring myself to feel anything but anger. And Hatred. He had betrayed my trust, again and again! And no amount of pleading would change that. I felt stupid. Dirty! Used! I should have listened to my head but I listened to my treacherous body and my crazy wolf, who wanted nothing but her mate. My wolf chose at that moment to whine f
