She hoped Hughes had not been mistaken and was right about Osvaldo being normal again. But as she reached the lounge, Penny noticed something was off.


    Beneath her feet was a rug.

    A rug?


    The penthouse didn’t look so empty anymore. It was furnished, from the top to the bottom. Plush furniture filled the ce, and there were beautiful decorations from one angle of the room to another.


    Penny had no idea her mouth was hanging open. Never in her life has she seen anything like this before.


    But how is it possible?


    It’s only been four days, how did they transform the penthouse from an old ce to a living ce?


    The furniture and decorative materials used were of the highest level.


    "Good morning Penguin." Her head followed the sound of his voice to see him standing by a corner. A small smile spread on his lips. His dimple made her heart beat so hard.


    She would never get used to his smile, because of how it made her feel.


    Osvaldo was in a ck robe slightly tied with a side of his toned chest in disy. His long ck hair fell to his shoulder and back.


    The wild monster was gone and the man before her was the usual Osvaldo she knew.


    Her madman.


    Penny blinked once as she stared at him fighting hard not to be charmed by his beauty. For all she knew, their marriage was a sham, those types that neverst long.


    Osvaldo looked like those demon prince staring out of a romance novel. The type you imagine to be so handsome, yet dangerous.


    Penny didn’t know what to say to him, especially after everything that had happened the nights before.


    One would never believe this was the same man who had screamed her name all night, crying and begging her to open the door for him. He had been the same man that had assaulted her in theb.


    That night, he was a monster. But right now, he was her demon lord. The one that slowly pulls you into the abyss with him. And you’ll never be known until you’re consumed beyond repair.


    "Let’s have breakfast together Penguin." He said calmly and started walking towards her, Barnaby tailing closely behind his master.


    Penny froze a little, she had no idea she had stopped breathing but she did.


    "What are all of these?" She asked trying to avoid his gaze. But the man before her misunderstood her action from wanting to be away from him.


    If only he knew how her insides were in chaos right now. She had no idea why her heart was even beating. It’s not like she liked him in any way.


    "My gift to you for listening and not opening the door Penguin." He smiled.


    "But it’s dangerous for you," Penny said calmly.


    "Not when I have you here with me to always protect me," Osvaldo said. "I’m sorry for everything that happened penguin. I would never intentionally hurt you."


    Penny stared at him without a word. She had been so terrified that night. Never in her life did she ever think she would be assaulted by Osvaldo.


    "It’s alright. Give me a head start next time." Osvaldo nodded eagerly at her words.


    "Let’s have breakfast together Penguin, my treat." He said grabbing her hands with hisrge one as he led her into the dining area.


    Never in her life did Penny ever think this mansion could be this beautiful when decorated. She couldn’t stop staring at everything. She was in awe with each step she took. She wanted to ask Osvaldo how he had managed to transform an abandoned house into this.


    When they arrived in the dining room, there were maids and servants lined up around therge oval-shaped dining table. Laid just beneath a crystal chandelier.


    But what caught Penny’s attention was the fact that only one chair was avable for therge oval-shaped table in there.


    How were they supposed to sit?


    There were more than ten different dishes lined up on the table. Penny stared at the table wondering what they were celebrating. She couldn’t even finish a te of the food there, not to think of everything on the table.


    "What do you think Penguin?" She heard Osvaldo ask and before Penny could say a word, he led her further in.


    Penny watched him draw out the chair and sat, before cing her fat butt on his legs. She flinched immediately, jumping off his thighs.


    Her face turned red from embarrassment.


    Did this man want her to break his legs?


    "Are you alright Penguin?" Osvaldo asked with a frown, inspecting his legs for anything that might have possibly harmed her, but there was nothing.


    "I... I can sit on my own." Penny has never been more embarrassed before. But she was d the servants there didn’t react to what had happened in any way. They all acted like nothing had happened.


    "No penguin. I’m your chair for today. Let me take care you like you did me. Come sit."
