Silver Eyed Devil Chapter 1 The Ball

"Don't tell me you are not ready for the ball, Penny?" Irene sighed tiredly, glaring at her younger sister who was busy playing with her kitten.

"Ball? What ball?" asked Penny, her green eyes glowing brightly. Even if she did know about the ball, she wasn't a bit interested in attending the vampire ball. She wasn't ready to be a meal for those bloodthirsty ani.... people.

Irene sighed and answered annoyingly," the king invited us to his Ball and Momma wants us to go. She wants to find us a suitor as quickly as possible."

"Suitors? Papa agreed?"

"Yes, I believe he's ready to give us away. We have been living here for too long and the last thing I want is to be a source of a topic for those jobless villagers. Now get ready Penny, I will be in my room if you need help with your dress." said Irene, walking out of her sister's room.

Penny placed her kitten on her bed, stood up, and lazily removed her nightgown. She still can't remember Irene telling her about the ball and even if she did, she will prefer to stay in her room and sleep. She hates the ball, she would choose to be in her room all day instead of having to have a fake smile on her face for the rest of the night.

She sighed tiredly, tying her crimson brown hair in a rough bun. She stood in front of the mirror, admiring the blue gown that was picked by her sister. She might not get along with Irene but she does know how to pick the right gown for her.

"Ready?" Irene asked, walking into the room and standing behind her sister.

Penny stared at her sister from the mirror, she was wearing a red flowing gown, a typical example of a rich young lady. Her sister was more beautiful compared to her and she always stood out among others and that was a very big difference between them. She loves an extravagant lifestyle while she prefers a simple life. As long as she is happy and free, that's all she needs to survive in this crazy world.

"Yeah"

"Okay, Momma and Papa are waiting."

"Hmm" Penny hummed in response.

Irene walked out of Penny's room while Penny placed her cat on her bed, closing her windows before leaving her room.

"I'm worried that Penny will stay single all her life. No man is ready to be with her after what happened with her last fiance."Penny heard her mother's soft voice.

"Don't worry Mama, I will make sure she finds a suitor at the ball. I promise Mama," promised Irene.

Penny fisted her knuckles angrily, she could hear her mother and sister's voices slowly turning into a whisper. For how long will she keep defending herself, it wasn't her fault he died. But no one was willing to listen to her and she was so damn tired of explaining. She won't be getting married, not anytime soon.

"Penny, what are you still doing here?"

"Papa!"

"The carriage is waiting, let's go," her father said with a smile on his face.

She nodded her head in response and walked out of the house with her father. She saw her mother and her sister sitting closely together. Even though she knows that her mother cares about her, there are times she thinks that her mother just doesn't want her. It might be her illusion but then...

"Penny?" her father called bringing her out of her little world.

She entered the carriage, followed by her father, and the journey to the castle began.

This will be the first time the Leos family will be visiting the castle. The castle was a place that was out of bounds for villagers like them, that's why it came as a surprise when the king invited them to the ball. Irene couldn't wait to meet the thousands of suitors that she will be meeting while Penny just couldn't wait to get back to her bed.

An hour passed before they finally reached the castle. Both Irene and Penny gasped at the huge mansion in front of them, they had seen so many mansions but this was different.

"You both should behave yourself, okay?" their mother instructed.

"Okay, Momma" responded Irene while Penny just nodded her head nonchalantly.

The Leos family stepped foot into the castle for the first time, not knowing it won't be their last either.

"Mama, I will take Penny with me," said Irene, not waiting for her mum's response she dragged her little sister to the dance floor.

"What are you doing?"

"Getting you suitors," Irene responded with a smile on her face.

"I'm not interested in finding suitors, Irene and I'm sure you know that," Penny said sternly walking away from Irene.

Irene smiled awkwardly to hide the pain in her eyes. It seems to Penny, that she will never be that sister. Not like she cares anyway, she will prefer her out of her life.

Penny walked around the castle aimlessly and finally ended up in the garden. Her eyes glowed, admiring the flowers and the moon that was shining up in the sky. Even if she knows that what she did was rude, she wasn't ready to apologize to Irene, at least not for now.

Lost in her thought, she failed to notice a shadow standing right behind her. A man was leaning on the wall, his flickering between silver and red glowing brightly in the darkness. One of his legs was placed on the wall as he stared at the human girl like a prey he couldn't wait to devour yet with a keen interest in his eyes.

What caught his attention was the dress she was wearing, too plain compared to what the other ladies were wearing. But what he was so curious about was what she was doing here when she was supposed to be looking for an eligible bachelor.

"Penny?" a voice called.

"Mr. Rosi!" she greeted with a bow, unconsciously biting her lips.

"Irene said I would find you here. What are you doing here, enjoying the stars?" he asked, standing beside Penny.

"Not really, I just love the peace I could find here," responded Penny with a faux smile on her face.

"Hmm"

"Why are you here, Mr. Rosi?"

"I was wondering if you would like to go with me to the village square, in the next two days?"

Penny's heart skipped a beat for a second, her lips curling up into a faint smile. "I will think about that, Mr. Rosi but thank you for asking."

He smiled awkwardly before responding, "It's my pleasure. Would you like to go back to the ball?"

"Certainly," responded Penny.

They both left the garden, completely unaware of the shadow that has been standing away from them.

"Penny," he muttered softly.

"What a lovely name'"

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.

For seventeen years, I was the crown jewel of the Kensington empire, the perfect daughter groomed for a royal future. Then, a cream-colored envelope landed in my lap, bearing a gold crest and a truth that turned my world into ice. The DNA test result was a cold, hard zero percent-I wasn't a Kensington. Before the ink could even dry, my parents invited my replacement, a girl named Alleen, into the drawing room and treated me like a trespasser in my own home. My mother, who once hosted galas in my honor, wouldn't even look me in the eye as she stroked Alleen's arm, whispering that she was finally "safe." My father handed me a one-million-dollar check-a mere tip for a billionaire-and told me to leave immediately to avoid tanking the company's stock price. "You're a thief! You lived my life, you spent my money, and you don't get to keep the loot!" Alleen shrieked, trying to claw the designer jacket off my shoulders while my "parents" watched with clinical detachment. I was dumped on a gritty sidewalk in Queens with nothing but three trunks and the address of a struggling laborer I was now supposed to call "Dad." I traded a marble mansion for a crumbling walk-up where the air smelled of exhaust and my new bedroom was a literal storage closet. My biological family thought I was a broken princess, and the Kensingtons thought they had successfully erased me with a payoff and a non-disclosure agreement. They had no idea that while I was hauling trunks up four flights of stairs, my secret media empire was already preparing to move against them. As I sat on a thin mattress in the dark, I opened my encrypted laptop and sent a single command that would cost my former father ten million dollars by breakfast. They thought they were throwing me to the wolves, but they forgot one thing: I'm the one who leads the pack.

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.
