"Then you’re wrong." Osvaldo’s voice was a guttural growl, the sound scraping against his throat like claws on stone. "I’m a monster, Penguin. There’s a reason I was caged all my life. Listen to me and leave!" He pleaded this time, barely able to control himself.
Every muscle in his body was coiled, trembling with the effort of holding back. The chains around his wrists groaned under the strain, the metal biting into his flesh as he fought against them, not to break free, but to keep himself from reaching for her.
He didn’t want to hurt her again ro scare her. That’s the last thing he wanted. He cared about his Penguin so much. She’s the most important person to him right now.
Penny didn’t retreat. Instead, she clenched her fists and took a step closer, her breath hitching as the heat radiating from his body seared her skin. "Just tell me what I can do to help. Grandpa prepared a drug for you, to ease the pain. It might work." She said softly.
She was determined to help Os also tonight. She didn’t care how many times he’d tell her to go. Pushing her away was not going to do anything for him. It’ll only make matters worse.
Osvaldo laughed, the sound dark and jagged. "Penguin." His voice softened, a fragile thread of tenderness in the storm of his hunger. Heaven knew how much he was holding back, how every second she stood there, so close, so unbearably sweet, was another second his control unraveled.
Her scent filled his nostrils, his brain was already so familiar with her taste and he could already feel the taste of her on his tongue.
"Nothing is going to work on me." His eyes locked onto hers, burning with a feverish intensity that made her pulse stutter.
Penny bit her lower lip, the innocent gesture sending a fresh wave of agony through him. His fingers flexed, the chain on his right wrist creaking ominously. Then slowly... It cracked.
