Saved By the Alpha Chapter 23 | Permanently
Penelope Walking into Donovan’s room, I can’t help but look around. It’s a pretty neutral bedroom and has no real color scheme or anything to it. It’s very basic and I wonder how he can feel at home here whenever it’s so bland. He doesn’t seem like a bland person, so it surprises me. I watch as he walks to the right side of the bed and takes his shirt off and my eyes go wide as I see every muscle. He looks at me while holding his shirt as he says, “I hope you don’t mind; I prefer to sleep in my boxers.”My mouth feels dry as I shake my head no and he smirks as he takes off his pants, just leaving him in his boxers that hang low off his hips. It's hard not to stare and ogle him when he's so muscular that he makes my mouth salivate with thoughts of the things we could do. He looks at me and says, “Please, do whatever makes you comfortable.”With comfort in mind, I go ahead and take off my bra, but I’m careful not to reveal anything. Although, he’s already seen me fully naked, this feel

Penelope Something got thrown over my head, making me unable to see. I thrash around desperately and must’ve landed a few shots as I hear whoever is trying to take me grunt or squeal. Finally, I get thrown on the floor and I rush to get the thing off my head. It takes a moment for my eyes to adjust to the light, but when they do, I see five girls standing around me with their arms crossed. And they look pissed. These are Xavier's girls, the girls I sought help from and they refused me. I don’t understand why they seem so angry with me when I haven’t done anything. We never even talk to one another, when would I have had the chance to piss them off? My eyes flicker to each one of them and I notice three of the girls have noticeable bruises on their neck and on their faces. The other two girls look disheveled and have dark circles around their eyes and one of them looked a bit too skinny and I wondered if she has been eating appropriately. There’s a girl with long black hair who snap
Saved By the Alpha Chapter 25 | Walk
Penelope My mind feels muddled as I walk around the pack grounds. I don't know how to help those girls and I don't know how to make my new relationship with Donovan stronger, where I'd feel comfortable talking to him about the whole Xavier situation. I try to focus on the pack, on learning my way around here. This is my home now and I need to know my way around. Honestly, I'm in awe of how gorgeous this pack is. So much land, tall trees that provide the perfect amount of shade for a long walk. There was a babbling brook nearby, and all the nature sounds were enough to help the tension in my shoulders release. I continue my walk and notice that there seem to be a lot of people out today. I shouldn’t be surprised; we’re having great weather. But the weird thing is that everyone says hello to me or wants to stop and have a conversation. Is this pack really just that friendly? It just seems overkill. Then again, my only experience with people was from my teachers at the Academy and w
Saved By the Alpha Chapter 26 | What Do You Want?
Penelope The relief I felt when I saw Violet appear is indescribable. I can't explain how glad I am that Violet came over to help me. I don’t know what was making those boys want to be near me, it’s weird. Honestly, the entire day has been weird. It wasn't just boys that wanted to be around me. It was men, women, children, any and everyone! Why?! But now my head is aching, and I feel lightheaded from how bad it hurts. I hurry back to the pack house lie on my bed with my eyes closed, hoping that eventually the pain would fade. There’s a knock on my door, but it doesn’t surprise me. I bet it’s Violet coming to talk to me about the weirdness of today. I grumble as I bring my fingers up to my temples, "Come in." The door opens and I’m surprised when I hear Donovan’s voice, “Are you okay, Penelope?”I force myself to sit up even though my head hurts so badly that it’s the last thing I want to do. I nod, “Yeah, I’m okay. Just have a headache."He questions, “Why are you in here instead
Saved By the Alpha Chapter 27 | Request
Donovan Life is so much better now that I have finally gotten over my concerns about having a mate. Penelope... Penelope is everything I could possibly want. Her presence is infectious and I'm always smiling whenever she is near. But I’ve been spending time with Penelope for a few days now and I really understand what Violet was talking about. People flock toward Penelope. A part of me wants to feel happy about it. It's obvious that my pack likes her and will be thrilled when they learn she is going to be Luna. But... it’s really weird to watch, especially as Alpha of this pack. Normally, people would come to me to ask me questions or make request, but no one acknowledges me. They all focus on her. They compliment her, they ask her where she’s from, and if she wants to hang out. And she’s so polite and for the most part, she seems to be oblivious to how odd all of this is. It’s cute, but it just shows how naïve she is. Every day that goes by, it seems like she is getting more atte

Penelope Time passes by quickly at the Moon Stone Pack. Has time always moved this fast or is it because I'm thoroughly enjoying my life now? Violet and I hang out all the time, Donovan and I are crazy about one another, and every day I'mlearning something new. The excitement can be overwhelming. I always thought I was destined for fame, but honestly, I think this is more fun than that future ever could be. I still can't believe that Donovan invited me to go on a trip with him and I leave for that trip today! I don't know when we're leaving to the Red River Pack; it just depends on when Donovan is done with his pack duties. Violet is hanging out in my room and going through my closet as she tries to help me pack. I’m lying on the bed while she shows me what she thinks looks good. I honestly don’t care what clothing I take with me. I imagine that I’m just going to be in the bedroom most of the time because Donovan won’t want me to go off by myself in an unfamiliar place. And that'
Saved By the Alpha Chapter 29 | One More Day
Penelope The car ride here wasn't too long, thankfully. Time flies when I'm with Donovan as we're constantly telling one another stories and new things we haven't learned yet. My favorite story during the car ride is when his sister told him that they could turn into wolves sooner if they just believed. So, the two of them for an entire day crawled around on all fours, howling or barking at people. I swear, things can't get better than being with Donovan Stone When we get to the Red River Pack, it doesn't surprise me that as soon as the Alpha introduces himself that Donovan is immediately wrapped up in his work. The Red River Pack omega showed me and our warriors where we'll be and I get settled into mine and Donovan's room in the pack house. I know we have some guards whose rooms are across the hall, but the rest of the warriors were staying in a guest house nearby. After a couple of hours by myself, I decide to go walk around the pack grounds. The only pack I have ever been to i
Saved By the Alpha Chapter 30 | The Dream
Penelope The rest of the day was good. Simon and Vince are awesome guys and I'm glad that Donovan assigned them as our guards. I'm even happier that there seems to be no awkwardness between me and Simon. Once Vince, Simon, and I were done playing cards I got to have a nice dinner with Donovan. We stayed inside our room because he didn’t want to go be around the Alpha and I don’t want to deal with people hovering over me. I try not to act like it bothers me, but people constantly wanting to talk to me and become 'friends' is absolutely draining. Right now, the only person I want to be around is Donovan. He is so handsome; I can’t take my eyes off him. I don’t know what has made him so attracted to me, but I’m going to enjoy it as much as I can for as long as I can. He asks me, “So, how are you enjoying pack life so far, Pen? You know, now that you’re not worried, that one day you’ll be back with Xavier.”I chuckle, “I’m enjoying it a lot.” I reach my hand out and touch his as I sa

Saved By the Alpha Bonus Chapter 2
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. The longest we stay at a place is 1 month before we're going somewhere new. Traveling has become one of my favori

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. Is someone breaking in?I think of the fastest way to get to Violet

PenelopeDonovan’s okay? He’s okay!The smile on my face hurts my cheeks, but I don’t care because I could cry from relief. He’s okay. 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

DonovanHatred fuels my blood.Anger fills my mind.All I can think of is how to get out of here and end Xavier's life.I don’t know how long I’ve been here. 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

DonovanMy ears ring from the sound of the cars crashing together. As our car spins out, Cora wakes up and screams. I grit my teeth together as I try to figure out what just happened. 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
Saved By the Alpha Chapter 89 | Failed You
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
Saved By the Alpha Chapter 88 | White Fang Pack
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
