/Penelope's POV/“What a beautiful woman you have in your arms.” a husky voice complimented and I whipped my head to look at him while Hunter stepped in front of me, to prevent me from looking at him or to prevent him from looking at me.I slightly moved to the side to get a glimpse of who this man was, I saw a creeping tattoo of a scorpion on his neck, a towering figure with a commanding presence. Standing at 6'4" tall, his muscular frame is a testament to years of disciplined training. His broad shoulders and chiselled physique exude power and intimidation, but he did not look as good as Hunter's.His piercing blue eyes, like ice in a winter storm, hold an intensity that can send shivers down anyone's spine. His jet-black hair, slicked back with precision, adds to his aura of sophistication and danger. A well-groomed beard frames his strong jawline, giving him a rugged yet refined look.“Xavier Brecks. Loved my presents?” Hunter replied while pushing me to his side and putting a pos

/Penelope's POV/“Beep Beep Beep,” The annoying sound of the alarm filtered into my ears making me groan and try to turn my ears away from the sound.“Turn that shit off,” I mumbled.“I knew you have a death wish, but luckily I won't be granting it.” A Husky familiar voice replied.As I slowly opened my eyes, the sterile white walls of the hospital room came into focus. The throbbing pain in my chest reminded me of what had happened. I had taken a bullet meant for that Demon, I don't know what pushed me to step in front of the bullet for him.“Maybe you wanted to end your life quickly,” My subconscious nagged.“Oh maybe you wanted to die for him so bad, and prevent him from taking the bullet,” my body objected making me groan.“Are you okay? Are you feeling pains somewhere??” The man I recognized as Jordan questioned while touching my neck, to feel my pulse.“I think I'm fine, what happened?” I croaked out knowing fully well about what happened but thinking that if I played innocent,

/Hunter's POV/“Be careful of what you wish kitten, I am not gentle in any way,” I informed and stalked in her direction with a predatory move, I felt her heartbeat spike up, partially in fear but the glint in her honey-filled orbs could only mean she was excited for whatever she wants to happen.“I know it's not in your nature, considering the way you threatened me on the first day we met,” She retorted, a smirk took over my features because she did not know what I was capable of.“Since that is known, I hope you are not expecting thousands of roses and candles. Because that's not something I can do.” I looked at her, and the only thing I could point out was the fact that a switch had suddenly gone off in her head, or maybe she was dealing with a concussion.“If I was dealing with a normal situation I would have expected, it didn't happen the first time, it sure as hell not going to happen now, or what do you think?” She countered taking me back, I couldn't even detect if she pretend

/Penelope's POV/“It is simple, you don't want me to touch any other Man apart from you, I'm helping you do the same.” I raged while all I could see was red, I know I was being irritational, but if he can put his claim on me and tell me not to do anything, I can do the same.“I think I made a wrong decision teaching you how to shoot, do you know who you almost shot? Her father is also a mob boss and that will automatically mean war?!” He fumed while matching towards me and snatched the empty gun from my hand.“I don't give a damn about who her father is, you're mine also, just like I'm yours, you won't allow any other lady apart from me to touch you, and you won't touch other ladies apart from me.” I spelt out.“You are crazy, it seems you need daily reminders that I bought you from an auction party, and that's all you are to me, my servant, only that nothing more.” He reminded me, that the cold hard truth hurt but I knew that was his intention so I took no offence in his words.“The

/Penelope's POV/“I need a job, I’m going to run mad if you keep me here all day, I can feel my sanity slipping off slowly,” I truthfully said while showing all the vulnerability I felt, putting my hard girl facade down.“It is too dangerous for you to work, you have never worked before so you have no working experience and that's something employers won't overlook,” He replied while piercing me with his steely gaze, trying to figure out where my new idea was from.“I know it's dangerous, but I can protect myself to some extent and I have Ricky baby to protect me. Besides, I can always work in your company, right? Dear husband?” I looked at him expectantly, an expression covering his face at the mention of the title.“Ricky baby? Who the hell is that??” He growled while taking a threatening step towards me, before I knew it, I was face to face with his black slacks showing the imprints of his cock, I slowly licked my lips while fantasizing about how deep I can take him before I choke o
