CHAPTER 114

• "Well, where should I start….?" Hope perks her lips a little as she glances around. "Don't tell her I told you this because she will kill me. But, Penelope had a mate, before, and he was everything to her. They weren't married so they aren't actually mates, but, she loved him, nonetheless." She leaned back into her seat and ran her fingers along her forehead. "They spent almost five years together and it turned out he was kind of…. A bastard…. I should say…"
• "I would like it if you were a little more specific." Ace rolled his eyes as he glared at her in annoyance. "A bastard can actually mean a lot of things."
• "Well, I was getting to that." Hope rolled her eyes as she glared back at him and rolled her eyes. "His name was Victor. He was a rogue too. He didn't really come here to actually settle, he just happened to be ‘walking by' for five damned years. He was a very friendly and charming person from the outside, he showed he loved her so much but when the time came for them to get married, three weeks before then he tried to kill her, thinking Penelope was the one going to become the Luna and that he would become alpha, since my father really loved him like his own son. When he managed to stab just a bit of her waist, luckily, he missed all the vitals, she managed to attack him back and she ended up killing him, by accident, out of self-defense. She blames herself for it, since." Hope nodded her head at her own words as Ace took in a sharp breath.
