“Baby, are you okay?” Ian worriedly asked a shaken Kimberly who was on the ground with her knees to her chest, hugging her body tightly.

Kimberly slowly lifted her head from between her knees at the sound of Ian’s voice. Her face was stained with tears, eyes red and puffy. Ian noticed that Kimberly had no shirt on, so he immediately took off his shirt, putting it on Kimberly who instantly hugged him, crying into his chest.

After minutes of sobbing, Kimberly sniffled back her tears, indicating that she was done crying. She slowly pulled away from the hug and noticed that everyone was present. They all had worried looks on their faces.

“Baby, look at me… what happened?” Ian asked, cupping her face with his hands

“T-there w-was some-something out here and it t-took my s-shirt” she managed to say, stuttering with her words

“Did you see what it was?” Simon asked concerned.

Kimberly shook her head, feeling embarrassed that she had gotten them worried over something that could be nothing in the end.

“Your shirt was right here before we left, I don’t understand. How did it get missing?” Amber asked with furrowed eyebrows

Kimberly suddenly felt weak, realizing that this wasn’t a joke.

“Let’s go” Ian said, carrying Kimberly bridal style as they all made their way back to the cabin.

“Are you saying I made it all up?!” Kimberly asked in a raised voice

Kimberly and Ian are currently in their bedroom back at the cabin, having an argument. She couldn’t believe Ian was accusing her of overreacting to something he felt wasn’t important.

“I’m only saying you were paranoid, that’s all”

“I can’t believe you. Losing my shirt to some unknown creature that could kill me in a minute is me being paranoid? Really Ian? Is that how low you think of me?” she angrily retorted

“What do you expect me to think? When you've always been against this trip!” Ian yelled this time as he was tired of holding his anger in.

He instantly regretted his action when he saw the look of disbelief in Kimberly’s eyes.

“Leave me the fuck alone, you jerk!” she yelled in tears when Ian tried to take her hand

“I’m sorry” he quietly said before leaving the room.

Amber and Britney immediately rushed into the room to soothe Kimberly.

Hugh was in his study when there was a knock on his door

“Who is it?” he asked, wondering who was disturbing his quiet time.

“It’s me, Donald” his beta replied

“Come in”

Donald opened the door and quietly walked in, making sure to shut the door behind him.copy right hot novel pub
