Stranded with the Billionaire Chapter Twenty Two
SAGE SAGE watched as Irena disappear into the tunnel. His head ached as fear pierced him. What if something happened to him? He used to be very confident in his ability to survive, but now that confidence is gone. Maybe it has to do with the fact that two more lives depend on him. When he's alone, it doesn't matter if he puts himself in life-threatening situations. That's just him. "Let's go, Titan!" he called and hissed. Sage poked his head behind a rock. He glanced at TItan, barked, then ran. Sage grabbed him by the collar and pulled him into the tunnel. Sage 's fingernails scratch the ice, but Sage doesn't give in. They just had to go far enough into the tunnel that the entrance was no longer visible. Then Sage will settle down. "How are you, Irena ?" Sage shouted. He waited as silence settled around him. He struggled to hear her despite the sound of his heart beating. "So wet, my feet hurt." His voice echoed from the tunnel walls. He exhaled the breath he was hol

IRENAIRENA has never been so cold in her life. Everything shook as she sat on the shore watching Sage light the fire. A fire. She closes her eyes as she imagines herself sitting by the fireplace at Christmas. Warmth surrounded her body. If only she hadn't woken up. She was very happy here. "Irena. Wake up." Sage 's voice interrupted his reverie. She groaned and closed her eyes. Why did he take her away from this memory? That's too welcoming. Here, his body is relaxed and his mind calm. "Wake up!" A jerk on her shoulder pulled her out of the dream she wanted to come true. Opening her eyes, she looked up. Sage opened her bag and pulled out a sleeping bag beside her. He's unbuttoning his shirt as he examines it. "W-w-what are you doing?" she asked, shivering at each word. "Your body is in shock from the cold. We need to warm you up. He took off his shirt and placed it near the fire." Fire. Yellow and orange flames lick the wood. He looked warm, but Irena felt

SAGEAN hour had passed, but Sage couldn't calm down. Irena seems fine. Her eyes were closed, her lashes fluttering over her cheeks. He moved and pulled her closer. He wanted to feel his breath. He couldn't get the image of her limp body out of his mind. His stomach twisted as he loosened his grip on her. Part of him wanted to run away – to protect himself. The other side never wanted to let go. I want to be here forever wrapped in my arms. He couldn't deny how wonderful her soft skin felt to his touch. He had to do his best not to pull her against him and kiss her. She survived. She's fine. His chest swelled as the fear rooted in him broke free from its icy grip. Even if she were to lie there and spew ridiculous reports in the media, he wouldn't want it any other way. She sighed as she walked. Her eyes opened and her gaze turned to his. "Did I oversleep?" He nodded. "Are you there?" she asked. "I can't sleep." She stepped back a little and coughed. He frowned. " H

IRENA THAT night Irena went to bed hungry. When she woke up in the morning, she had a stomach ache. She blinked at the lack of sleep she'd had the night before. Rounds 4-7-8 did nothing for her. Not when the sky is never really dark. Now she knows why so few people live here. It's too cold. Too bright. And overflowing with a particularly illegible billionaire curled up beside her. Even though their conversation ended abruptly last night, he still insisted that they sleep together to keep warm. He had been busy building a domed shelter while she dressed. Then he told her that they should get some sleep. Discuss in more depth. More mixed emotions. It's business as usual. She sighed, turning away from Sage . The leaves above her swayed in the gentle breeze. They are bright yellow and contrast with the blue sky. She fought back a cry as a cold, wet feeling ran down her cheek. Flapping aside, she saw Titan 's large nose just inches from her face. "Titan !" she hissed, pulling

SAGE BUSHES surrounded them as they stood in the trees. It takes more than an hour to cross the mountain to reach the top of the forest. A thick fog coiled around them, but Sage could see below the hill that looked like a deep canyon. He felt a little hopeful. It could mean a river was there. He stops and throws his bag over his shoulder. He sat up, arching his back as he stretched. He gave the flare gun and bear spray to Irena . It helps his joints with only bags and guns to carry. Titan is walking around, sniffing everything. Irena glanced at Sage . Her expression hurt for a moment before she forced a smile. "Where to go?" she asked. Sage studies her. Why does she have to be so tough all the time? He doesn't care that she's out of his element. In fact, he loved taking care of her. He just wished she'd let go of her pride long enough to let him in. "We're going down the hill. I hope there's a river there. Once we're done, we can stop. Then I went to get food. "He

IRENA IRENA hates Greenland . She hates plants. She hated the constant drizzle that wouldn't stop. And she hated Sage and his nasty questions. Since she refused to answer his questions about her parents, he decided to focus on his work, his hobbies, and Lindsay's. She should have wiped him out, but confronting a three-meter grizzly bear because she refuses to talk doesn't seem like a better trade. So she's reluctant to share almost every aspect of her life with the talkative billionaire behind her back. She has another point to add to her post. The Kennedy family is curious. While they refuse to share personal information about themselves, they want to know all about you. She can incorporate that part into the story. His lips twitched. He began to take his own life. It wasn't until well past noon that they finally made it through the bushes and discovered the river Sage suspected ran through the canyon. Irena rejoiced as she knelt by the river and washed her face with c

SAGE SAGE tried not to give in to the frustration that welled up in his stomach. He spent the evening following what he thought was a herd of deer, only to have the trail turn chilly. It was now miles from camp and it was getting dark. Not to mention he has no food. The rustle of the trees above made him slow down and hide behind a bush. Looking up, he saw a squirrel jumping over the top of a tree. He pulled the gun out of his hand and slung it over his shoulder. It's food and he's hungry. He got ready by pulling the trigger and gunfire rang out. Immediately, the squirrel fell from the tree to the ground in front of him. He grabbed her and tied her feet to the rope he carried. One more, and they'll be ready for dinner. Sunset surrounded him as he returned to camp. Fortunately, he left a mark on the tree, which brought him back. Without them, he cannot find his way. Everything looks the same. After killing another squirrel, he accelerates. As he approached the camp, he strai

IRENA SAGE is near. Too close. Part of her wanted to be in his arms, but another part wanted to run away. She has become too attached. She should know better. But she is very worried that something has happened to her so her presence will ease the pain in her soul. He looked at her with such seriousness that she almost leaned over. Most of them. Fortunately, his head is noisier than his heart. Using the little strength she had, she backed away enough to break his grip. The cool evening air surrounded her, reminding her how cold it was to be alone in the Greenlandic wilderness. "Are you okay?" Sage asked. His voice was lower than usual. It made her shiver. She nodded and bit her lip. They need to put some distance between them. "What took so long?" she asked, hoping the coldness in her voice would help calm her pounding heart. He raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?" "You've been gone all night. I think you want to keep moving forward. Now it looks like we'll have to
