Saved By the Alpha Chapter 14 | The Moment
Penelope The night seemed to pass by quickly and before I know it, I am getting dressed in a pair of shorts and a tank top, and I quickly braid my hair before going to Alpha Donovan’s office. I walk in there and smile as I open the door, but he doesn’t even look up to greet me. My eyebrows knit together, that’s unusual for him. He always greets me. I say, “Good morning, Alpha.”His eyes flicker up at me for a moment before looking back at his computer and he grumbles, “Good morning, Penelope.”My lips press together and my cheeks heat up in embarrassment. I feel uncomfortable around him now and I’m unsure of what to do next. Why is he acting like this? Is he embarrassed because of the thing that happened with his wolf? It shouldn't embarrass him. Ultimately, our wolves are animals and when they take over, it can be hard to rein them back in, especially for an Alpha because their wolves are more powerful. I sit down like always and grab a book, but I can’t concentrate on any of its

Penelope I'm rushing to get dressed so that Donovan's sister won't walk in on us in this... exposed situation. It's hard to dress quickly when Donovan won't stop staring at me in utter awe and fascination. He stares at me as I get dressed and I try to do things the best I can to look attractive to him. I’m relieved to know that he wants me, but I don’t understand why he holds himself back from having me. Once I’m dressed, Donovan walks to the office door and opens it up for his sister to come bouncing in. She has a happy radiating energy. She wears a floral maxi dress, and her light brown hair is cut short right below her chin. I like the vibe that she gives off and I think she's probably a really fun person and hope that I'll get the chance to know her. I don't have much experience with other girls, but she doesn't seem too intimidating. She looks over at me with a contagious smile and says, “Hey Penelope, it's so good to see you again. Are you busy today?”Donovan grumbles, “I th

Violet It took a while to get Penelope to loosen up. I wanted to be close with my brother's mate. Him, Jack, and I have always been three peas in a pod and it's important to me to keep up with that close dynamic. Penelope was wary of me and I can't blame her for that. Her life has changed so much in a short matter of time. But once she finally relaxed a little, she was fun to be around. I think she enjoyed the bookstore the most; we stayed there for almost two hours! She scoured over every section, but she loved the romance section, the fantasy YA books, and even picked out some thriller books. I didn’t let her see the total of how much we were spending. I don’t want her to worry about it. I know Donovan has more than enough money for her to treat herself. As she was distracted, I would ask her some random questions just trying to get a feel for what her life was like at the Supernatural Academy. She was well taken care of, a lot better than what most of their students are. I don’t
Saved By the Alpha Chapter 17 | The Book
Penelope The trip with Violet was good, but it was also overwhelming. I have never been in a place like that before and I'm still processing all of the things I experienced. I was overwhelmed by the kindness of the many things that Violet, or well, Donovan, had bought me. I don’t know how much money we spent, and I don’t think I want to know. But one thing I learned about Violet is that it was best not to argue with her. Once her mind was set on something, there was no changing it. I thought it was weird how she randomly decided that it was time to leave. I didn’t mind; I was tired after our many hours of shopping. I never would’ve expected to run into somebody that I knew, though, and it was a nice change for me. Mr. Brighton was always one of my favorite people to be around back at the academy. He was one of the few that actually seemed to care about me. He was my personal trainer, and he always asked how I was, complimented me, and made me believe in myself. He never seemed co

Donovan Jack and I help Violet inside with all the bags and then I call in an omega to bring this stuff to Penelope’s room. I notice Violet’s eyes flickering around the room before settling on me and she says, “We need to talk.”My eyebrows furrow, but I nod as I gesture towards the stairs for us to adjourn to my office. Based on Jack’s confused face, I know that he doesn’t know what’s happening, either. I feel bad that I’m going to have to dismiss Penelope since she came up here not too long ago, but this seemed like it needed to be confidential. When I walk into my office, I’m surprised to see that she isn’t in here, but I shrug it off as one by one we enter. Jack closes the office door and Violet looks at me as she asks, “Have you noticed something… unusual with Penelope?” “Unusual, how?” I ask as I cross my arms. A small part of me is concerned that Violet doesn't like her, but based on the way she's been acting around her and how smiley she's been, I don't think that's the case
Saved By the Alpha Chapter 19 | Step Up
PenelopeWhen I went to my room, I knew that I needed to step up my game if I wanted to stay out of Gamma Black’s clutches. Soon enough, all the bags of the stuff that we purchased today were brought to my room and my eyes were wide as I took it all in. The bags covered my room and made it hard to walk. My jaw is dropped as I process this. Literally, every single item that I said I liked was purchased. I pick out the pearl white romper that had a halter top and little pearls lining the neckline. I brush my hair and put on my shoes before grabbing my embarrassing romance book and walking to Alpha Donovan’s office. This time, I will achieve my goal. This time will be different, and I will win him over. I’m sure of it. Confidence is key… right? I knock on his door and then peek my head in as I ask, “Do you mind if I read in here now?” He shakes his head no and tries not to smile as he answers me, “Of course not. Come on in, Penelope.” I smile as I walk in, and I can’t help but notic
Saved By the Alpha Chapter 20 | Pursue
Penelope I can’t help but tilt my head back in frustration. Perhaps this is what I get for trying to pursue Donovan in his office. But I didn’t know when an opportunity would rise to go to his room, so I felt this was my only chance. Maybe I should try going to his room in the middle of the night? At least that way we won’t get interrupted. He calls out to whoever is outside the door, “Wait a minute.”He lifts me up and for a moment we’re lost in one another’s eyes, and I think he might kiss me again. But instead, he clears his throat and says in a low tone, “Get dressed and get back to your book, Penelope.”I press my lips together as I nod and get off his desk. I put my romper on as he puts on his shirt, and I can’t help the humiliation rising inside of me, causing tears to prickle my eyes. He can flip a switch so easily and suddenly it’s like this whole thing never even happened! Why is he like this? Then again, he is the Alpha. I suppose it's best to keep his business and per

Penelope Donovan grabs my hand and leads me toward the door, and I say, “Wait, I should probably get dressed. I should get in something more... I don't know, date appropriate?” Honestly, I feel like I look so disheveled that anyone who sees us will know exactly what we were up to. I'm sure it doesn't look that way, but I would like to be refreshed for our date. He turns to me and his eyes glance down to my neck and the corners of his mouth twitch up as he says, “Yeah, I’m sure you want something to cover those marks. Sorry about that. I didn't realize that I gave you so many.”My eyebrows furrow as I question, “So many what? What marks?”He chuckles and shakes his head and says, “You’re so cute, Pen, I forget how…" He puts a finger to his chin as he try to think of the perfect word and then continues, "I forgot how innocent you can be.”My eyebrows raise, but he puts his hand on the small of my back as he leads me out of his office and says, “Let’s go to your room and find you somet

15 years since Violet was born. Penelope The years have been good to us. I have seen so much of the world and felt more free than I ever could've imagined. It's just the three of us, we never had another kid. We talked about it... more than once, but ultimately we were fearful of how it could affect our safety. Nothing was worth the chance of putting Violet in even more danger than she already is. I lie in bed with Donovan snuggled up beside me. Uneasiness churns in my stomach and I know that something is going on that we don't know yet. Call it my 6th sense or mother's intuition, I just know something's off. Donovan kisses my head and mumbles, "Turn off your thoughts, Pen. Everything is fine."I let out a breath, hoping that he's right. He pushes himself up and looks me in the eye as he asks, "We're fine, we're safe, we'll be at Cora's in the morning."We haven't seen Cora for over 6 months now. We've been in Asia for the last half of the year and although we have enjoyed our tra

Five years later.PenelopeI sit across from Amelia at the table as we each sip on our coffee and watch our girls play together. A few months after I had Violet, Amelia had a little girl that they named Magnolia. It's fun watching our daughters play together, but the interesting thing is how similar they look to me and Amelia.Violet looks almost exactly like me except that her hair was curly like her dad's and her blue eyes had a green circle around the pupil. Magnolia looks just like Amelia, with her blonde hair and jade green eyes. The two of them together like this makes me wonder how mine and Amelia's childhood could've been different if our mom hadn't put me in the Academy and if our dad hadn't been a monster.Amelia brings the cup to her lips before setting it down and asking, "So, where are you headed this time?"Donovan, Violet, and I are constantly moving around.

PenelopeI hate waiting. I know that Cora and Donovan are both safe and they are working out a way to get him home, but it’s hard not to feel anxious about the entire thing. It’s been five days. It’s weird getting used to taking care of a newborn and going through this healing process on my own. But because I’m a werewolf, I heal faster than a human would, so I mean, that’s a good thing.It’s harder getting used to take care of a baby. I’ve never been around them much so tending to all of her needs all of the time is very taxing, physically, mentally, and emotionally! Add in all of the drama with Donovan and it’s surprising I haven’t had a complete mental break down from all of the stress.I breathe out as I cook dinner, eager to hear if there was any progress today. I need them back home… it’s hard not to feel depressed when all I have is myself and my racing thoughts.There’s a loud bang and for a moment, I freeze.

I can’t believe he’s okay and away from Xavier.But then Cora pops my bubble as she says, “You have to stay here, Penelope.”My eyebrows knit together as I question, “What are you talking about? I need to go see him. He’s my mate.”“I know that and trust me, Penelope, he wants to see you and Violet more than anything else in this world, but you won’t be going to see him right now.”I cross my arms defiantly as I ask, “And why not?”She breathes out, exasperated with my attitude, before saying, “Because I’m trying to keep you safe and Donovan specifically requested for you not to come.”Her words hurt and I can’t help the pain I felt in my heart from hearing that my mate didn’t want me. Instantly, Cora’s eyes soften and she says, “I didn’t mean it like that, Penelope. Xavier let Donovan go. Donovan knows he must have a tracker on him or something! Why el

Xavier is strong, and he is growing more powerful. He brought me back to the Moon Stone pack lands and I know now that he plans to rebuild here and to become an Alpha. But right now, there are days that go by that no one is coming to check on me. I’m learning their patterns and when they’re vulnerable. I need to get home and I would do anything to make sure that I can escape Xavier’s clutches.When I leave here, I can’t go straight to Cora’s, even though I want to see Penelope more than anything in the world. No, I need to go somewhere else. Perhaps to the Renegade Pack. I need to make sure that there is no tracker on me so that I don’t put Penelope and our daughter in danger.I think one of the big reasons that Xavier isn’t worried about me being watched at all times is because he already has a plan in motion. He knows that I wo

PenelopeIt’s been two weeks since Cora came home and Donovan never returned. Life feels like it has lost all meaning without Donovan around.I feel like my baby bump doubled and size and like Violet is moving around more. I think that she’s antsy because she knows that her daddy isn’t home. Or maybe I’m crazy and this is normal for this point in a pregnancy.Cora caters to me constantly. Honestly, she’s going a bit overboard and I’ve tried to get her to settle down, but I think that the guilt is eating her alive and she’s doing the best that she can to get through everything. I still have roughly a month left to get through this pregnancy. That means that Donovan has no help coming for him for over a month. He’ll have to figure out how to escape alone or he’ll have to hold on until I get there.Cora sets a cup of tea down beside me, and she watches me. I can feel her eyes on me and she sighs, “He wouldn’t want you to come after him.’I bite my tongue so hard that tears prickle in my

Before even getting out of the car to investigate, I know in my gut that this crash was intentional.My wolf is on high alert, knowing that the threat is somewhere we can't see. I huff as I turn to look at Cora and say, “When I get out of the car, I want you to drive off. Head home as fast as you can and make sure no one is following you.”She looks disoriented, but she nods her head and says, “Okay.”I breathe out, trying to steady myself before getting out where I know for a fact that I will be attacked. I open the door and as the dust from the wreck clears; I watch as I see Xavier appear across from me. He stands tall with his arms crossed as he smirks at me. I shut the door behind me and turn my head to the side as I say to Cora, “Go! And keep her safe.”To my relief, Cora doesn’t hesitate to drive of

PenelopeI didn't realize how incredibly boring it would be to be completely by myself. There’s nothing to do. I’ve already cleaned everything, I’ve tended to the garden, I’ve cooked dinner, I’ve scoured the internet for ideas for Violet’s nursery, and now I’m just sitting on the couch, bored.I tried to read a book but I find myself unable to focus. My wolf feels anxious, which is an odd behavior for her. I would let her go out for a run, but I’m pretty sure Donovan would have my head if he knew I went running without him to protect me.I breathe out as I lay my head back. I wish he would call me or mind link me. I would try to link him, but I don’t want to distract him in case he is in danger. Eventually… I fall asleep. I don’t know how long I’ve been asleep, but when I wake up, it’s from the back door slamming shut. I jump and I’m wide awake and ready to attack until I hear Cora’s voice yell, “Penelope! Are you okay?”I rush towards her and I say, “I’m fine.” I notice a cut on her

DonovanIt was only a one-day trip to get to the White Fang Pack. Cora and I sit on the outskirts of it and observe to see how hard it would be to break inside. The patrol here sucks. They’re slow, they talk a lot, they are never quiet enough to listen to their surroundings to see if a threat could be present, and they leave their post without waiting for someone to take their place. It’s like they’re begging for someone to attack their pack and take advantage of their vulnerabilities.I grind my teeth in frustration. If my pack was like this, then I could understand how we were overthrown. My pack was ready. We just couldn’t handle how powerful the threat was. But this pack… I feel like I could overthrow them by myself. I wouldn’t. That’s not the kind of man I am and I don’t want to draw attention to myself. I know that Xavier is still out looking for me and because of that, I need to stay down low as long as possible. Cora asks, “What do you think?”“I think I could easily get you
