Savannah's world shatters with a single betrayal, driving her into the heart of a blizzard and the arms of the enigmatic Silas-a man who has watched her, consumed by a dangerous fascination. Stranded in his isolated cabin, she's drawn to his surprising tenderness even as she recoils from his dark past and possessive grip. Demanding obedience, yet offering a disturbing allure that hints at a passion she never knew she craved.

The Wilderness Obsession Chapter 1 TWO 1

Savannah

"Damn, this town is beautiful." Kat whispered as we passed the 'Welcome To Pinbrooke' sign on the side of the road. She was now holding her phone and recording our surroundings. When I looked out the window, my mouth parted.

Mountains weren't new to me because, girl, this is Colorado. Out of all the states in America, they have the most mountains, even if you're in Denver, where there was a lot of gentrification, urbanization, and many more zations that have happened. Despite the concrete and glass jungle of buildings, the mountains are still visible and it feels like you're still close to the wilderness.

And so I thought no mountains in this state could faze me until I came here. The range that we were passing by was covered in white snow, but there were still parts that weren't covered, and those said parts were mixed colors of bright orange because of the thick and tall maple trees, and also green parts because of the tall oak trees. It is so beautiful my mouth could water. The car went on and we passed by small establishments with flat and decorative roofs and it was made with bricks.

We stopped in front of a small grocery store to buy food that we would bring to the cabin, since it was a bit far from the 'city' part of town. Only Kat and I got out because Rence wanted to rest for a bit since he had been driving for six hours. After asking him what he wanted from the store, I got out. The snowfall had calmed down, so I could witness the beauty of Pinbrooke even more. This town looks like it came from postcards because the establishments are surrounded by tall and colorful mountains. There were people walking on the sidewalks, there were cars and an Amish cart parked on the side of the fairly big road, and the surroundings looked so peaceful. It's just so fascinating and calming to be able to experience this.

Before we entered the small store, I took some photos of Kat for her Instagram. When we went to the store, I grabbed a basket and we headed to the canned goods aisle. It wasn't hard to find because there were only three aisles in this store.

"Psst," Kat nudged me while I was looking at the label of a canned corn. She was standing on my right side.

"What?"

"Daddy Alert. On my right-wait, right is left?"

"Left, dummy."

"Okay. My kuh-liwa. Daddy alert, kuh-si!" She was subtly tugging at my sleeve like a kid.

My brow furrowed after I dropped the canned good into the basket.

"Just look, and you will say thank you to me later." She widened her blue eyes at me. I used to be so amazed with blue eyes until I saw it everywhere at school. Weird thought, but true.

When I turned in the direction she was pointing, the first thing that came to my mind was: giant. The man wearing a red flannel shirt, washed jeans, and a pair of combat boots at the end of the aisle is huge, maybe around 6'6 because he is freaking taller than the shelf of this store. He dwarfs everyone and everything with his height and build. His shirt hugs his body tightly, so from here I could see that his arms were muscular, his chest is buff but not in an extreme way, it was just enough to let you know that he can throw a full grown guy across the room.

It was very cold outside but his sleeves were rolled up to his elbow, exposing his tattooed and veiny forearms. He was holding dog food in his big hand like he's reading the label and puzzled about it. I had to crane my neck to look at his face, he was far which is why I can't see much of his face, but I can see that he has a long and droopy nose, his jaw is covered in thick neatly trimmed facial hair, despite the hair, I can't deny that he has a sharp jawline.

"Look at that butt, bitch. It's so firm." Kat murmured. "Those hands look like they do manual labor all the time. I bet city boys don't stand a chance in a fist fight with this man."

I looked away when I realized that I gawked at a stranger without a thought. Pull it together, Savannah. You have a boyfriend.

"He looks old." I said after I wet my dried lips with my tongue.

"Holy shit, I don't care if he's forty."

"It doesn't look like he's forty, probably late thirties?" I asked and returned my gaze to the cans in front of me.

"I don't give a single shit, Savannah Tatlonghari Lewinsky. He could be a century older than me and I will still spread my legs from north to south and let him do me six ways to Sunday, honey."

"Kat, he might hear you–"

"I am not the one who's in a 'relationship' here. I am allowed to quench my thirst. I mean, damn, look at those fingers. Mmm–mMM-mmm. He's so big and tall, and he's so massive, it looks like everything about him is big. Do you think he gets customized condoms because it looks like those XXL Trojan will not fit in that bulge-"

"Christ, Kat." I said and grabbed a random can, and pretended like I was reading its label to hide my flushed face.

"You know I will let him spit in my mouth and I will thank him too when he degrades me."

"Jesus. Katherine Hudson."

"Yeah babes, an absolutely beautiful, hot man like him makes me forget about woman's suffrage and flushes my feminism down the drain."

"Go figure, huh." I replied sarcastically. I didn't dare to look back because I might just gawk again....accidentally.

Yeah, Savannah. Accidentally. My subconscious butted in but I ignored it.

"Let's go, before you spread your legs there." I said to Kat and dropped the random can in the basket.

She chuckled.

"Yes, ma'am. I will head to the fridge and find ice cream, 'cause if I stay, he might see the wet spot in my jeans." She joked. She then took the basket from me and walked away.

I hadn't taken a single step away from where I was standing when I suddenly felt a gaze. I felt a heavy stare boring holes in my back. I felt my goosebumps break around my scarf-covered-neck.

When I looked back I found him staring at me with his eyes so gray, it almost glinted like silver. Some strands of his dark hair dropped on his smooth forehead, and his thick brows were furrowed. He was looking at me darkly, but I couldn't read his face. His jaw clenched.

I don't know but I couldn't look away....his stare stirred something in me that suddenly made me feel hot within.

Christ, no. I immediately looked away and quickly followed Kat. What is happening to me?

The Billionaire's Cold And Bitter Betrayal

I had just survived a private jet crash, my body a map of violet bruises and my lungs still burning from the smoke. I woke up in a sterile hospital room, gasping for my husband's name, only to realize I was completely alone. While I was bleeding in a ditch, my husband, Adam, was on the news smiling at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. When I tracked him down at the hospital's VIP wing, I didn't find a grieving husband. I found him tenderly cradling his ex-girlfriend, Casie, in his arms, his face lit with a protective warmth he had never shown me as he carried her into the maternity ward. The betrayal went deeper than I could have imagined. Adam admitted the affair started on our third anniversary-the night he claimed he was stuck in London for a merger. Back at the manor, his mother had already filled our planned nursery with pink boutique bags for Casie's "little princess." When I demanded a divorce, Adam didn't flinch. He sneered that I was "gutter trash" from a foster home and that I'd be begging on the streets within a week. To trap me, he froze my bank accounts, cancelled my flight, and even called the police to report me for "theft" of company property. I realized then that I wasn't his partner; I was a charity case he had plucked from obscurity to manage his life. To the Hortons, I was just a servant who happened to sleep in the master bedroom, a "resilient" woman meant to endure his abuse in silence while the whole world laughed at the joke that was my marriage. Adam thought stripping me of his money would make me crawl back to him. He was wrong. I walked into his executive suite during his biggest deal of the year and poured a mug of sludge over his original ten-million-dollar contracts. Then, right in front of his board and his mistress, I stripped off every designer thread he had ever paid for until I was standing in nothing but my own silk camisole. "You can keep the clothes, Adam. They're as hollow as you are." I grabbed my passport, turned my back on his billions, and walked out of that glass tower barefoot, bleeding, and finally free.

One Night With The Wrong Brother

I thought I was waking up in the arms of Arthur, the man I loved. But as the morning light hit the Hamptons estate, the man buttoning his cuffs by the window turned around with eyes like chips of ice. It was Augustus Riddle, Arthur’s cruel younger brother, and I had just spent the night whispering confessions of love into the wrong man's ear. The night I thought was a beautiful beginning turned into a devastating nightmare. Instead of comfort, Gus treated me like a stain on his expensive carpet, scribbling a check for "services rendered" before shoving me into a dark service corridor to hide my existence from his brother. "How much does it cost to buy your silence?" He sneered, before leaving me barefoot in a torrential downpour while he drove away in a luxury Cadillac. Four years later, I am a struggling actress in Los Angeles, working double shifts as a barista just to keep the lights on. My life was finally stable until my roommate dragged me to a high-end dinner to meet her new "influential" boyfriend. The man sitting at the table, looking more arrogant and lethal than ever, was Augustus. He spent the entire night humiliating me, calling me a pathetic amateur and a social climber in front of my only friends. When I fled into the rain and collapsed on the sidewalk, skinning my knee until I bled, he watched from his car. He saw me clutching a plastic baggie containing the taped-together pieces of that four-year-old check—the only proof of my shame. He looked at me like roadkill, rolled up his window, and drove off into the dark. I couldn't understand why he was doing this. Why did he hate me enough to crush me, yet remember that I couldn't handle the smell of cigarette smoke? Why did he leave me bleeding in the street, only to send expensive medical supplies and coffee to my door the very next morning? "I'm moving out." I told my roommates, realizing that Gus Riddle didn't just want to destroy me; he wanted to haunt me. I grabbed my suitcase and walked out with eighty dollars to my name, finally ready to disappear into the city before he could burn the rest of my life to the ground.

Flash Marriage To My Best Friend's Father

Flash Marriage To My Best Friend's Father

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.

I sat on the edge of the examination table, the crinkle of the sanitary paper sounding like thunder in the sterile room. The doctor didn't even look at me as he confirmed the news: the pregnancy was over. My husband, Keyon, didn't answer my call. He just sent an automated text: "In a meeting." When I returned to our cold mansion, I found his iPad glowing with a message from his "muse," Katina. He was throwing her a secret gala tonight-on our third wedding anniversary. He told her he couldn't wait to escape the "boring" and "draining" atmosphere I created at home. Keyon didn't stumble in until 3 AM, smelling of Katina's perfume with a smear of red on his collar. When I handed him the divorce papers, he laughed in my face. He called me a "glorified housekeeper" with no skills and no future, promising I'd be back in three days begging for a subway ticket. He even bet his friends ten thousand dollars that I wouldn't survive a week without his name. He had his assistant cancel my credit cards and block my gate access before I even reached the end of the driveway. He wanted me to starve. He wanted me to crawl. He sat in his office, mocking the "desperate" woman who pawned her three-million-dollar wedding ring for scrap metal just to pay for a meal. I stood on the rainy curb, watching the man I had protected for three years treat my life like trash. He didn't know about the ultrasound I just threw in the bin. He didn't know that while he was calling me "dull," I was the one secretly writing the code that kept his billion-dollar empire from collapsing. As I slid into a cheap Uber, I opened a hidden, encrypted app on my phone. The screen refreshed to a dashboard for an account Keyon didn't know existed. The balance was ten figures long-the accumulated wealth of "Solaris," the world's most elusive tech genius. Keyon thinks he just evicted a parasite, but he's about to find out he just declared war on the only person who can hit "delete" on his entire life.
