Raphael was a person who got whatever he wanted by any means he pleased.
To get her,he used all means possible,no matter how cruel it looked or sounded.
He would spoil the woman he loved,pet and pamper her giving whatever she wanted but the one thing she wanted most, which he wouldn't give her,was her freedom.
He was an obsessed person and she was his obsession,she didn't even understand how she had caught his fancy,she wasn't the most beautiful woman he knew and most certainly wasn't the nicest but for some reason,of all women,it was her he wanted.
Most people, mostly her colleagues who saw him come to her workplace from time to time assumed she was being an ungrateful bi**h as the most wanted and successful single bachelor was head over heels for her but all she did was complain,if only they could walk a mile in her shoes,she would happily give her life to them.
This man was no ordinary man,he was crazy,and tonight his craziness was proven even more at the three men he had just shot dead all because they tried to talk to her.
Although at first,they had appeared like nice gentle men who just wanted to ask for directions but soon,when they made advances,she ignored them knowing Raphael was watching her but the men wouldn't let her be.
"Don't act so prideful all because you have a big shot in your life now,once he's done with you, he'll dump you"
One said
"We just want to get to know you beautiful"
His hand went over her arm and in terms Making contact with her and that was when the sound of a gun shot echoed through the quiet lot and soon, three men laid before her with heavy bullet holes in their skull.

After the crazy event between him and the man he said was his friend,he took her home,not with his car but with a means she didn't understand.
One moment they were in the car but the next moment,they were in a room,his room,she recognized.
"You'll stay with me from now on"
His words made her look up at him,fresh tears still drizzling down her cheek.
No.
She didn't want to stay with him, seeing him every day was already a nightmare for her,she needed an excuse
"If you think you'll use your clothes as an excuse then save your breath, I'll get you new ones"
He pushed strands of her hair away from her face.
"Rex will take you to work and return at exact time, I'll no longer give you such opportunities to sneak out as tonight,cause next time,I might not be around to save your crazy ass"
That was how he was with his words,he could literally be ripping your heart out of your chest and still whisper sweet nothings into your ear.
"But we both know that is impossible,cause I'll always be around baby girl"
He carressed her cheek, slowly bringing his face closer but then paused,a scowl on his face.
"Go take a bath,I don't like when you smell like other men"
One thing he hated more than anything was when other men's scent lingered on her,he felt like strangling the person who stayed so close to have his scent linger on her. He wanted her to smell only of that beautiful sweet scent he loved,the one which was able to drouse him in a bliss.

Penelope was done with her nightly routines,her hair was slightly damped as she combed it while in front of a mirror, all the while,she tried her most best not to think of what Dorian had told her in the car earlier else she would get another headache.
The sound of moving leaves registered to her hearing and she frowned.
Slowly,she approached her window and when she opened its curtain,she saw the black wolf outside and her breath hitched.
Slowly,she opened her window and piqued her head out, although wary and a little shaken.
Was this really him.
The wolf took few steps but then stopped, looking at her like it was asking for permission to come in.
Musking all the courage she had,She stepped aside and immediately, the black wolf leaped through her window, thumping steadily inside her room.
Her heart skipped a beat when she realised how big it's size was,this thing could rip her head off in one chunk.
"D_Dorian?"
She asked still unbelieving.
Bones snapped and Penelope watched in close detail as the wolf lost all it's fur, slowly transforming into a man who now stood in front of her.
Naked.
