Peyton
I watch as the men cut out wood from a fallen tree to set the fire. It's already late in the evening and Cole is the one holding out a flashlight as they do this.
Dylan grumpily dump a bag containing cans of soup and marshmallows in my hand
"Killian said you're here to help cook, so get on with it when they put on the fire." He says an irritated look on his face like I am a nuisance.
"Why do you hate me?" I bluntly ask him this because he's the only person I feel bad energy from considering the fact that he's Killian's Beta.

Peyton The kiss is long and deep to the extent that my world begins spinning, with my knees growing weak and wobbly. Being beaten terribly by the rain, too many emotions twirling in my heart, and a thousand thoughts slamming through my mind, makes me feel foggy. But Killian's firm grip on the small of my back restrains me from falling, with his mouth never leaving mine as he kisses me like the way a thirsty man in a desert craves water. I've been kissed senselessly on several occasions by Lancelot, but not this way. Killian seems to be more experienced in kissing. His lips are hard and not gentle at all despite the rain and the smell of vodka from his breath.

Killian It's dawn and I haven't slept a wink since we returned from the forest. We couldn't even go on with what we had planned because of what happened. I am in Peyton's room. Last night we brought her in and the doctors attended to her. Cleansing the venom from the bruise and sewing it closes so she can heal quickly. Harry is lucky he escaped, otherwise I'd have broken all the limbs in his body, before knocking his head off. And I am still trying hard to believe that Peyton still tried to save me despite I humiliated her before the arrival of Harry and his men. She was scared of seeing the battle that took place but came rushing in to protect me when Harry had the perfect opportunity to injure me so badly.

Note: This chapter is quite lengthy, but it has a slicing of humor so it's not boring at all.PeytonTime flies so fast because it's been a week since Killian set me free. A week but it still feels like yesterday when I woke up and found him watching me from the only chair that was in my temporary room at his mansion. I spent just two nights there but a whole lot happened, something that can take within the space of two weeks or probably even months, took two days. After two days of knowing Alpha Killian, I can't stop thinking about him.He made me sit next to him, linked his mind with mine to know my thoughts, then told me about how he suffered at the hands of his late father because he was having dyslexia. Even though he's a man now, I can't help but feel pity towards the child he h

Peyton"Anything the matter, why are you here for me?" I ask when I join him at his table because he's the last person I expect to come to see me. And how did he know I work here?"It's been quite a few rough days. How are you, Peyton?" Dylan questions with nothing but genuine concern in his eyes.He seems very different from the Dylan I was used to. Because the old Dylan didn't bother to hide his dislike towards me.Maybe some parts of his brain were unscrewed. Freya says in my head."Good." I lie after gulping, then look away to tuck my hair behind my ear because I can't tell him my days have been horrible with

Killian I've been like shit lately, and Walt is making me get pissed off at every single thing. I yell, punch into the walls, scream at my employees, and stay away from everyone most of the time because having company does no good to me. If it isn't Walt getting agitated and longing for a woman with unforgettable green eyes, it's the face of the said woman tormenting the shit out of my senses. I haven't felt this way before, and I know it's because I freed Peyton, when she's supposed to be by my side because she's my mate. She saved me twice, but keeping her next to me will only endanger her life even more. I have one too many enemies and experience attacks from every angle. So I decided to let her go, even gave her a ten thousand dollar check to take care of herself, but Dylan came back with the check, saying she refused it. Any normal woman would've accepted it, but she refused, putting me in a worried state and making me wonder how she'd cope when she doesn't have a dime. I ca

Listen to To Build A Home - The Cinematic Orchestra. Peyton I've been to several yacht parties with Lancelot before, because it was hosted by his dad which always consisted of roughly thirty people who were very important to the Crimson pack, with my Alpha Ronan not being left out. Hand in Lancelot's, he'd take me around and introduce me to people he knew. He'd show me their photos and made me cram the names of these guests after telling me about them a day or two earlier, so I'd be able to hold a proper conversation with these wealthy people. He always did this because he was brilliant and a constant participant in the business world, and as we were supposed to be mated, I had to be acquainted with these people which earned me some sort of popularity I never desired. My dress and hair were always commended. They liked my style because my maxi dresses, pair of sandals, and straw hat always stood out, mostly when people discovered that I made the dress myself. And Lancelot alway

Peyton "I hope you know you're no match for Killian. That he'd never see you no matter the efforts you put in to get his attention." It's no other person than Rein who has been gulping down several glasses of wine since she came to my side. "No matter what you do, Killian will never see you." She slurs. It's obvious she's drunk because she's had more than a few glasses of wine. "You don't have to worry yourself too much after stating that I'm no match for him, there's no point to be threatened. But not to worry, today will be the last day you, Killian, and everyone here will see me." I say with a small smile, meaning every word because after what just happened a few minutes ago, I figured they don't need me in their space. Wrapping her arm around my shoulder as though we're besties, Rein twirls me to face the sea. "Well then, my hatred will reduce if you keep to your word because Killian is all mine." She circles her free hand in the air for emphasis, then staggers away with her fr

Listen to Lovely by Billie Eilish ft Khalid. Peyton I don't even remember how I dived into the water, but all I see is myself taking swims towards the floating log of wood that has the small bodies of the children tied to it. I can't believe Alvin and his minions can do something so heartless to these children after killing their mother. Due to my ill-judged jumping through the yacht railings, my knee cap got dislocated and my ankle twisted to another angle. But I don't relent. With help from Freya, I keep swimming towards the floating log which is roughly fifty yards away from me. The seawater has this salty scent that itches my throat and causes a sharp burning pain to slice through my chest. There are many disadvantages to me swimming like this, I might even get stuck and drown but I don't give up. Alvin is worse than the devil, and if I come out of here alive along with the kids, then I'll kill him myself if I can. Because the kids are so small, fragile, and innocent. Someth
