Chapter 92
Music recommendation for this chapter to listen: Amour ex machina and Rain Sound and Thunder - 2 Hours Sleep Meditation Sound . I have the habit of mixing up sounds to be able to imagine the scene . I hope you enjoy it together, maybe on laptop .

Penelope stilled her heart . Keeping it down not wanting him to know where this conversation was going . The first few seconds of the minute that passed by she didn't understand what he was trying to achieve by giving her something that was a precious family heirloom which belonged to his mother . She would have given it some thoughts but with the way he stood right in front of her face, staring into her eyes, Penny was finding it hard to think .
It wasn't that she was scared, maybe initially she was scared of this pureblooded vampire who had stabbed the person who was auctioning the slaves who were brought from the slave establishment . If there was something she had compared in tonight's celebration, it was the difference in which Damien treated her . He made her climb a tree, pluck weeds that were growing in the garden of the mansion when it was pouring with rain just like it was now .
Was he maybe . . . perhaps he like . . . ? No that couldn't be true, she shook her head mentally . Penny tried to deduce his words with the deafening silence that held certain tranquility as the clouds continued to growl . And though it deafened everything around them, she had still managed to hear him call her as a 'dumb mouse' . But the more time passed with him waiting as he stared at her, her heart started to beat, increasing its pace and she hoped he wasn't able to hear it .
But Damien Quinn didn't need to rely on her heartbeat . Her face was enough for him to read the emotions that were going through one by one . First came the confusion, which followed to a deep concentration as if she were in a thought which finally came to the realization which she tried to hide but not enough from his eyes which made him grin .
Though they were inside the mansion, in the attic with the roof to protect them, Penny could feel the cold air raising goosebumps all over her skin .
Her chest resonating along with the thunderous clouds .
Penny felt slightly breathless, his face inching closer to only move away and she lowered her eyes, looking away from him . Forgotten that Damien had asked her a question . He was joking with her right? The more she thought about it the more her head hurt . It couldn't be true . Her eyes lifted up looking up at him,
"It seems you found your answer to the question . Care to share it?" he asked her above the sound of the rain .
She parted her lips to speak but no voice came out from her mouth . Her eyes had turned wide, looking at Damien who stood waiting for her, "You must have your reasons," she said trying to tiptoe from the answer he was asking . That was if what she thought was the right answer she had stumbled upon .
"You can get down from the trunk unless you plan to sit there the entire night," Penny scrambled down, placing her feet back on the wooden floorboards which felt much better than the other side of the mansion which was made of marble . If her feet healed faster, she would have been able to wear the shoes which he had bought for-something clicked in her mind . She looked at him with a suspicious look .
