Penelope
I sat uncomfortably and stared at my feet while I waited for Mr. Black. It was uncomfortable listening to the woman cry out, sometimes in ecstasy and sometimes in pain. The dirty things the men said to them were disturbing and I swear, the sound of balls slapping against skin is forever engrained in my head.
It took a while before Mr. Black walked back in and when he did, his eyes roamed over me as he called my name, “Ms. Fox.”
I walk to him, and he takes my arm and leads me out of the room and brings me into an office room where another well-dressed man sits. The man had sandy brown hair that looked disheveled like he had run his hand through it a thousand times, his dark eyes looked tired, and he didn't even really look at me. Instead, he glances towards Mr. Black and Mr. Black huffs and says, “Penelope, this is Beta Stevens. He proposed an interesting idea and is going to take care of you from here on out.”My eyebrows furrowed, and Beta Stevens stands up and nods his head as he says, “Ms. Fox, it’s a pleasure.”Mr. Black rolls his eyes and states, “If he doesn’t like her, then I want her back.”
Beta Stevens rolls his eyes at Mr. Black and says, “I’m a man of my word, Xavier. Cool it. I think the Alpha will like her and it might help him get back out there.”Mr. Black states, “I need to get back to my girls. I hope you’re right, Beta.”He leaves, and Beta Stevens looks me up and down and asks bluntly, “Is your flower still intact?”“Excuse me?” I cough out and he chuckles and says, “Your virginity. Are you still a virgin?”My cheeks heat up from his question, but I nod slowly, “Yes, Beta Stevens.”“Good, I’m glad I could get to you before he could fully corrupt you. Let’s get you changed and head back to the pack.”“Beta Stevens?” I call his name and he looks at me, “Yes?”“What pack is this? I was with Mr. Black and the Moon Stone Pack, but now I’m with you…”“You’re still with the Moon Stone Pack, Ms. Fox. Mr. Black is our Gamma.” He explains and then offers me a welcoming smile. He seems a lot different from Xavier Black.I nod in understanding, and he says, “Come on.”I follow him out the door and he brings me back to the room where I had been changed into this outfit. The difference is, this time, no one catered to us. It’s as if we didn’t exist.Beta Stevens walked over and picked out a baby pink dress and he looks towards me and says, “Pink would be a good color for you, yes?”
I nod, “Yes sir, I’ve been told pink is a good color for my skin tone.”He passes me the dress and states, “Put it on. I’ll find you some shoes.”
I nod and do as he said. I feel uncomfortable getting naked with a room full of people, but it is what it is. I’m just glad to be away from the room with Mr. Black.
I slip on the dress, and he comes back to me and hands me a pair of black ballet shoes and says, “This will be just fine. Let’s get going. The Alpha hates when we take too long at these events.”
I follow him out to a car, and he opens the door for me to sit in the passenger seat and he gets in the driver’s seat. As we drive, he glances over at me and says, “Take off that collar.”I don’t hesitate to do as he instructed, and he tells me, “You’re different from the girls we saw during the auction today. In all my years of attending this auction, no one has caught my eye the way you did. You are a gift for our Alpha. If you can’t keep the Alpha’s interest, then you will be given back to Mr. Black. But our Alpha is a refined and respectable man. He would be angry if you had a collar on like a mutt.”“How am I supposed to keep-” He cuts me off before I can finish my question, “It’s not my business how you keep his interest. You have roughly a month, Ms. Fox. Your fate is in your hands.”
I gulp as I sit back in my seat as he continues to drive. As we drive, he tells me, “Our Alpha is named Donovan Stone. Our pack is very well known, and he has a certain standard he must keep. He will not be near a woman who looks… loose, so you must do your best to keep your standards high.”I nod as I say, “Understood, thank you, Beta Stevens.”
We soon pull up towards the pack house. I’ve never seen one before, but it seems simple. It looks like it’s two stories and from the front view, it doesn’t look too big.
Beta Stevens steps out of the vehicle and walks around to open my door. He tells me, “Ms. Fox, welcome to the Moon Stone Pack.”
He holds out his arm for me to take and we walk into the pack house. It’s much bigger and nicer looking on the inside. I couldn’t help but raise my eyebrows in surprise at the place.
Before we can walk anywhere else, a man walks in and looks startled at our appearance. Beta Stevens smiles as he takes a step forward and says, “Alpha Stone, this is Ms. Penelope Fox. She was at the auction today.”
Alpha Stone looks at his Beta and pays no mind to me as he asks, “How many people were purchased today?”“Gamma Black purchased 4 women, I purchased Ms. Fox here, and we purchased around 10 men that would be good warriors.”Alpha Stone nods and says, “We’ll initiate them all into the pack tonight. I’m surprised you bought a girl, Beta. That’s unlike you. What would your mate have to say about it?”Beta Stevens chuckles as he says, “I don’t think she would mind, sir. I didn’t buy her for myself. Ms. Fox is here for you.”Alpha Stone’s eyes flicker to me before looking back at his Beta and asking, “Why?”
“I just thought-” Alpha Stone raises his hand and shakes his head before saying, “It doesn’t matter. Ms. Fox you are welcome to follow me. I’m sure I can find some… use for you.”I bow my head, “Yes, Alpha.”His head cocks to the side as he says, “She shows respect. Most of the girls there don’t.”Beta Stevens chuckles, “She’s different from the others, Alpha. I’m sure she will please you well.”Alpha Stone nods and says, “Find a place for her belongings. Come, Ms. Fox.”Alpha Stone turns his back and starts to walk away, but I feel frozen in my stop. Beta Stevens nudges me and mouths, “Go!”
I nod as I scurry off to follow the Alpha. But there’s a pit in my stomach at the thought of what he might do to me in private or if I won’t be good enough for him how I’ll end up back with Mr. Black.One thing is for sure though, I’d rather die than be with Mr. Black again. I must make this work with the Alpha. Otherwise, I’m not sure what will become of me.

Donovan The pack house is quiet today. This only happens once a year, so I've learned to enjoy the day of peace I get. My Beta and Gamma went out to the auction today. The auction happens every year with werewolves from the Supernatural Academy. The whole academy is made up of children who were orphans, were sold to the academy, or if their parents owed the academy a debt and took too long to repay it. I used to go to the auction, but after a while I felt like it was downright depressing. Most of the supernatural creatures being sold are 17-18 years old, some of them haven’t even shifted for the first time. Most of them get sold during their first auction, but occasionally there will be some 20-year-olds in the mix that have never been chosen and at that point their value is insanely low. My Gamma, Xavier Black, enjoys going there so that he can find some new playthings. He likes to try his girls out first before putting them in the strip club that he owns. Although, I suspect th
Penelope The day is awkward and uncomfortable.Alpha Stone hasn't paid too much attention to me since earlier when I made my first attempt at seducing him. My cheeks still redden in embarrassment over the whole situation. When the Alpha was done with his workday, he led me to a bedroom that he said would be mine. I thanked him before I walked in there and took a deep breath. The day has been exhausting and unnerving. I lie down on the bed and take a deep breath, enjoying the moment I finally get to have to myself. But I don’t even have time to exhale before there’s a knock on my door. I try not to groan as I force myself off the bed and drag my feet to the door and open it. I jump back, startled, as I see Mr. Black leaning against the door frame with a small smirk on his lips. I didn't realize Mr. Black would be back so soon and I'm surprised I never heard him or the other girls come to the pack house. He walks into my room like he owned it as he said, “Well, well, Ms. Penelope.
Donovan It's hard to sleep when I know that my mate is in the same house as me and I feel like she is off limits. She's not. If I really wanted her, I could have her, but... she's my kryptonite and I have to keep her at arms length. Since I couldn't sleep I decided to go ahead and start my morning early. I get my mug of black coffee and walk back to the office so I can look through the files about our newcomers on my desk. Beta Stevens always does a great job when picking out new warriors and from the files I’m seeing, he’s done a great job again. These are all strong and talented men that are sure to fit in well with our current team and do well with our rigorous training. The girls that Gamma Black bought are… well… nothing special. It’s his typical purchase. Girls that are low ranked but have beautiful bodies and know how to use them and have been taught how to be perfect with seduction. The only surprise purchase was… Penelope Fox. Penelope was definitely stunning, but it’s
Penelope It’s been a week since I came to the Moon Stone Pack. All day, every day, I spend my time with Alpha Stone in his office. He’s easy to talk to and nice to look at. But I’m not sure how he feels about me. He never makes a move to touch me, and he seems like he’s just being polite. The way he acts makes me nervous. I can't tell if he's enjoying my presence or not and I'm scared that one day he'll decide he doesn't want me around anymore. If I’m ever by myself, Gamma Black seems to always be there. He winks at me and tells me how he can’t wait for me to be his again. His confidence scares me. Why is he so certain that the Alpha won’t want to keep me around? How many girls have tried and failed at winning the Alpha’s affections? How long do girls normally stay with him? Am I doing better or worse than the ones that came before me? Beta Stevens is quiet whenever he sees me and the Alpha together. His eyes always flicker between the two of us, like he’s trying to examine our in
Donovan I’m growing tired of dealing with these rogues. This happens every year, after getting new recruits from the academy we get a bunch of rogue attacks. The reason why they seemed to attack then is that they thought we would be weak because we had new recruits and we had to train them to get on our schedule. Normally, the rogues quit after a couple of days, but it’s been a week now. I don’t understand what’s different this time, but it’s obnoxious. Walking down into the cells, I notice their putrid scent and it makes me want to just kill them and be done with it. But something in my gut tells me that there’s something else going on here. I get to the cells they’re in and see that they’re still in their wolf forms. My face scrunches up in confusion and Jack walks in and says, “They won’t shift.”“Get the wolfsbane. I bet that will do it.”Jack nods and walks back to the front of the cells to find our stash. I look at the three wolves, unamused as they snap towards me and lung
Penelope I'm practically shaking after dealing with Xavier. I feel dirty and used. It was such a small thing that he forced me to do, but it made me realize that if I was under his rule, then I will be treated like an object and not a person. I never want to be just an object again. It's hard to be alone after that, yet I'm grateful it gives me time to figure out my next steps. I have to try harder than ever before to make Alpha Stone want me. I need to know without a doubt that I won't be sent back to Xavier Black. It was over an hour before Alpha Stone came back into his office. When he came back in, he looked at me and just stared at me for a while, as if trying to decide whether he should talk to me. I smile softly and wave my hand at him. He rolls his lips into his mouth before walking over to his desk. I feel like I’ve done something to upset him, so I look over at him and ask, “Is everything okay?”He shakes his head as he murmurs, “Everything is fine, Penelope.”I’m hesit
Donovan My wolf is on edge and furious that our moment had been ruined. He was ready to sink his teeth into Penelope and make her be ours forever, but Jack had to ruin that! Me, on the other hand, I'm grateful for the interruption. I mean, of course I'm a little annoyed, but I'm mostly grateful because I didn’t want to go too far with her. Not without her knowing what it means. If we had sex, I know I wouldn’t be able to resist marking her and as soon as I mark her she would become Luna of this pack. She needs to know this information before jumping into this. But do I want her jumping into this? My own thoughts surprise me. I have been adamant that I didn't want her as my Luna, that I didn't want anyone as my Luna! But now I can't think of anything else. I long for her, she seems perfect, too good to be true. But… the scary reality is knowing that she could shatter me. I could turn into a shell of a man and make my pack weak, just like my father did. I don't want to be like my
Penelope I walk away from the girl’s quarters, and towards my own room, feeling dejected. I don't know what I should do to keep Donovan around, and those girls are obviously not going to give me any help. Although, I can't blame them. If I was stuck in their position, I would be dying to find a way out, too. I'm almost to my room when I hear a loud crash. My eyebrows furrow as I hear a girl’s voice, “Donny, you need to calm down!”There’s a deep growl. Who is Donny? Could she mean Donovan? I’m surprised he’d allow the nickname. He seems a bit too stern to be okay with that. Maybe this is a girlfriend or something? For some reason, the thought of him having a girlfriend infuriates me. I want to see her; I want to know if he has something going on with this woman whose voice I can hear. Why would he kiss me and tease me if he had a girlfriend?! Then again, he’s the Alpha. I suppose he can do whatever he wants… I just thought he was better than that. I thought he was better than the w
