Penelope’s POV The beautiful white building stands quietly in the center of our pack, showing its mysterious beauty in the moonlight. I shift back into my human form and walk into the dark living room. There was no one there and no light. Instead of feeling scared, I felt more and more excited. "Alpha? Charles?" I cried tentatively, only to discover that my voice was unusually hoarse, but it wasn't water I was craving... No one answered me. I think Charles might be in his room on the second floor. My hand gently on the carved wooden armrest, feeling its warm and hard touch. I looked up and let out a short breath, imagining I was stroking Charles's strong muscles. I walked slowly up the stairs, scraping the wooden floor with my high heels. DA, DA, DA. I hear my own heavy breathing.
