Saving Penelope

by Zoe Jane Fox

  “What do you want to do after we eat baby?” he asks while passing me a plate along with a coke. I think about it for a moment and I know exactly what I want to do.

  “I want to shift into my bear and play with yours,” I say with a smile across my face. I know I made the right decision when the same smile as before breaks across his.

  Monroe

  My mate’s bear was breathtaking, watching her run around playing was fun and a turn on. I showed her how to fish in the pond that’s between my family’s houses and she seemed to be scared of the fish at first then she had fun chasing them in the water. She didn’t hurt the fish just played with them, making me love her a little more for her kindness. After we were done playing she asked to go to my parent’s house to get Doctor. She missed him and felt horrible that she wasn’t with him when he needed her most. So we went back to the house to freshen up before heading on over. I knocked on the door while holding Penelope’s hand in mine when we heard “I bet that’s your mama, yes I do. She loves you so much, I think she will make a great mama to my grandbabies.” Penelope starts laughing as Pa answers the door with a smile on his face.

  “It’s good to see you’re safe and sound Penny, but I don’t know how you expect to take Doctor back. Natalie has been spoiling him worse than she did all the boys when they were a baby.” Pa says while holding the door open for us to come inside. Penelope sees Doctor on a doggy bed bigger than the one Ma bought him for our house with Ma sitting next to him on the floor before running over to them. Laughing I follow my dad into his office, taking a seat on his couch while he pours us a drink.

  “So what happened out there? We were there when you got the call to go get her, but nothing else.” He asks while passing me a glass of whiskey. I tell him everything she told us while leaving out the part that Damon found his mate, that’s his story to tell.

  “How is Bastian holding up?” He asks while setting his drink on the table.

  "I’m not sure, but finding out it was someone he trusted is probably making it worse. I will call him in a few days to check in with him," I say.

  I'm not mad at him, hell, even I couldn't figure it out. Eric had a plan and unfortunately, it was good. He hid his trails, making it look like a human doing the killings. I chat with Pa for a little while before needing to be near my mate again. We walk in the living room, hearing Ma is begging to keep Doctor for one more day, saying moving him too much might set him back. So my dad was right, Ma isn't going to give him up easily. Maybe we should get her a dog for Christmas or some grandbabies to spoil like she wants. I walk over to Penelope and wrap my arms around her waist, leaning my head down to nuzzle her neck, she smells so wonderful today, I can't figure out what it is.

  “Fine! Ma, he can stay with you today, but only for one night, then I want my dog back. Don’t even think about trying to talk me into more nights or I won’t bring him over anymore!” Penelope says with her hands on her hips. Ma claps her hands as she says thank you. We say our goodbyes before making our way back home.

  As soon as the door shuts behind us, I bend down, grabbing my mate, tossing her on my shoulder carrying her to our bed. Penelope is laughing as I’m running up the stairs. I slap her ass just for the fun of it, but it backfires when she moans and wiggles on my shoulder pushing her lush ass towards my face. I gently lay her on the bed and pull her to the edge.

  "Take off your clothes, Mate," I say and my voice is thick with need. She does what I told her and she asks me to take mine off saying she wants to see me naked too. Wanting to give my mate everything she ever asks for I pull my clothes off then move her body so I'm in between her legs. I lean down, making our foreheads touch and say "I love you, Penelope."

  Not giving her time to say it back, I lay a quick kiss on her lips, then her cheek and her chin moving down her neck to her breast. I lick around her nipple before sucking it into my mouth. She moans and puts her hands in my hair, gripping it tightly, pulling me closer to her. Letting her nipple go with a pop I make my way to her other nipple when her scent hits me again, this time it's stronger and I know exactly what it is. I take a moment just resting my head on her chest.

  "Monroe? Are you crying? What's wrong?" She asks, trying to sit up to see me better. Lifting my head, I look her in the eyes, seeing the concern in them.

  “I’m absolutely wonderful,” I say. I see her face change from a concern to a questioning look, “We’re having a baby!” I say with the biggest smile I can. Her eyes get huge and she sits up, I move to kneel between her legs so I’m level with her stomach.

  “Are you serious? How can you tell?” She asks as she puts her hands on her stomach, I reach outputting my hands on top of hers.

  “Your scent has changed, you smell so much sweeter like warm honey, ” I lick my lips just thinking about tasting her again.

  “We’re having a baby” She repeats like she can’t believe it. Slowly a smile spreads across her face and she says it again, but this time more excitedly.

  "Yes, now it's time to celebrate," I say. I carefully push her back onto the mattress and I can't take it anymore, I have to taste her and see if she tastes like she smells. I don't even tease her like I normally do I go straight in, licking her all over her pussy. She's already wet and I'm licking up her juices as my life depends on it. She tastes even better than warm honey. Pulling her clit into my mouth, sucking hard, not wanting to play around, she starts moaning my name and reaches down to grab a hold of my hair again holding my head to her clit while wrapping her legs around my shoulders making sure I won't move away from her pussy. I slide two fingers in her and that's all it takes and she's coming on my hand. I place one last kiss on her pussy before pulling my fingers out and bringing them to my mouth and sucking her release off of my hand.

  "You taste so good, mate," I say as I stand up and grab her ankles, pulling her closer to the edge and slamming my cock inside her in one thrust. She squeezes me tight and I know I'm not going to last long it's going to be hard and fast.

  "Harder Monroe, I want to feel you as deep as you can go," She says as she lifts her hand and starts rubbing her hard little nub.

  "Fuck yes, play with yourself, baby," I grunt while pulling out only to slam back in over and over again. She's got her eyes squeezed tight and biting her lip and I know she's about to come I quicken my pace so I can go with her.

  “I’m coming!” she yells while grabbing the sheets in a death grip and moving her head back and forth. I pump two more times and I come splashing her walls with my thick hot come. I lean forward and kiss her softly before picking her up and moving her to the center of the bed. I pull out groaning at the loss of our connection and lay down beside her. I wrap my arms around her pulling her closer to me before placing a kiss on the side of her head.

  "I love you, Monroe," She says while snuggling deeper into me and the bed.

  "I love you too, Penelope," I say and I'm so glad I agreed to work Mark's wedding instead of just sending my men because it lead me to my mate.

  Five Years Later

  "Get back here right this minute!" I yell at my twin almost five-year-old boys who look identical to their father, who I'm blaming this on. Parker and Mason both shifted for the first time today, which was a bit sooner than I thought it would happen. Now they have decided it would be fun to run away from me since I can't catch them. Doctor is barking and running around chasing them like it's a game, having fun with them. Ma didn't get to keep Doctor like she wanted to but we surprised her with a puppy of her own who she spoils her silly. Not as much as she does her grandbabies, which all of her sons are giving her plenty to spoil.

  “They shifted already?” Damon asks as he walks around back with his youngest daughter on his hip and his mate wobbling behind him along with their other two children.

  "Yes, but Monroe isn't answering his phone," I say with a huff. Sitting down on the patio chair, giving up chasing them since I can barely mov
e at nine months pregnant. I make sure the baby monitor is still on before grabbing my glass of water. Damon's mate joins me sitting in the chairs, rubbing her own very pregnant belly. You would think I would be used to chasing kids since we have the twins and Miles who is three. But they have gotten faster and I'm getting too big to be running around. Now that they shifted I'm screwed and will not be able to catch up to them until after the baby is born. I figured this one is another boy so we decided not to find out the sex during our ultrasound. I hear a truck pull in the driveway and Doctor gives up chasing the boys to head towards the front to see who it is. I already know it's Monroe I can smell him from here and he smells amazing, making me forget I'm mad at him for not answering his phone. Sure enough, he comes around the corner his eyes landing on me. He starts striding my way, when Parker and Mason realize daddy is home, running straight at him tackling him to the ground.

  “I see my boys have shifted! Congratulations boys, but remember what we talk about, no shifting when others are around” He says in a stern voice. The boys shift back into their human form saying they remember, before asking for a snack, saying that being a bear made them hungry. Laughing Damon says him and his mate will get all kids a snack, leaving us a moment alone. Monroe gets up off the ground and makes his way to me. He leans down to kiss my belly before rubbing it, then gives me a kiss on my lips.

  “I’m sorry I didn’t answer your call baby, I was in a meeting with Bastian and I decided instead of calling you back to just surprise you by coming home early.” He says before kissing me again but this time deepening it, sliding his tongue into my mouth. He tastes like coffee and my mate. I begin to squirm in my chair getting turned on by his kisses when he pulls back. I let out a low growl letting him know I’m not happy with him ending the kiss.

  "As much as I want to take you upstairs to have my way with you we can't right now. Baby, my brother, and his family are here, no one hears you as I give you pleasure. We also promised the kids we would take them out for ice cream," He says, sounding just as frustrated as I am. I nod my head asking how his meeting went and when is Bastian and his family coming over for dinner again. Chuckling at me he tells me soon. Miles picks that moment to wake up from his nap, wailing on the baby monitor letting us know he is not liking that he is stuck in his crib while hearing all the kids playing. Monroe helps me up from the chair when I’m standing up all the way I feel a weird pop and water gushes at my feet.

  "Shit," I say when I realize my water just broke. Monroe yells for Damon to take care of the kids while carrying me to his truck driving me to the hospital.

  Three hours later Monroe is repeating what I said “Shit” when we’re told we have a little girl. She looks like me and I’m sure she is going to be just as sassy as I am and giving Monroe gray hairs at a young age.

  Ten Years Later

  “But Daddy, I want to wear makeup for my birthday dinner!” Paige whines.

  “You know the rules, no makeup is allowed to be worn outside of the house until you’re fourteen,” I say sternly, before walking out of the room before she can sucker me into letting her wear it. I need to find my mate and spank her ass for giving our daughter makeup for her birthday, she’s only ten years old for fuck's sake. I go into our bedroom, locking the door behind me then slipping inside the bathroom. My mate is bent over the counter applying some lipstick on while giving me a perfect view of her ass and her cleavage in the mirror. She’s filled out more with having four kids and I love every bit of it. I walk up to her rubbing her luscious ass before slapping it.

  “What was that for?” She asks, but she also pushes back telling me she wants more.

  “That, my lovely mate is for getting our daughter makeup for her birthday, do you want me to kill someone tonight?” I ask while undoing my belt and pants, letting them fall to my ankles. I grab her dress lifting it up over her hips, showing me her red panties. I let out a growl before pushing them down her legs.

  “Monroe, what are you doing?” she asks, already sounding out of breath. I pull her hips closer to my body while reaching my hand around the front of her, sliding my fingers through her already wet folds.

  “Oh, you know exactly what I’m doing, mate,” I say roughly as I piston my fingers in and out of her hot little pussy causing her to moan.

  “Shhh, we don’t want to get caught and have to stop now, do we?” I ask. I pull my fingers out, bringing them up to my mouth, sucking her juices off of me. If we didn’t have somewhere to be I’d have my head between her legs sucking as much as I could in my mouth. I grab my cock in my hand, giving it a couple of pumps before rubbing the head through her folds, getting it wet with her essence before slamming home. She grabs onto the counter, spreading her legs a bit more giving me more room.

  “More Monroe.” She says in a hushed but firm voice. I’d do anything to please my mate so I give her more, pounding in and out of her. When she starts letting out little sounds, letting me know she’s close I bring my hand down on her ass giving it a firm slap, causing her to come squeezing her walls tightly around my shaft milking my release out of me. I lay my head against her back trying to catch my breath for a moment when I catch the scent.

  “Fuck yes! We’re having another baby!” I yell as I pull out of her.

  “I was wondering when you were going to notice it,” she says as she fixes her clothes. I’m so happy I almost forget why I came up here, I just pray it’s a boy I’m not sure I can handle another girl. Penelope pats my cheek before walking out of the bathroom telling me she will go talk to Paige. I can’t help but wonder if she’s already this sassy at ten, then she is going to give her mate a hell of a time when she’s older.
