(Last update until Wednesday or Thursday!)

The cold and bitter wind nipped at my neck and nose. We had been wandering in the cold for 2 hours, and Daisy's face was pale with bright red cheeks and nose.

Copper was visibly weak. He was only a puppy, and we had been walking in the cold.

I didn't pay much attention to Dove, as I didn't love her.

Daisy started to stir. "It's cold," she whispered.

"I know, love, just a little longer."

She snuggled closer to me. It made my heart hurt to ask her to get up.

"Daisy, I need you to walk, can you do that?" I asked.

She slowly nodded. I set her down and she ran to Dove. They held each other as they walked. The next thing I heard was Daisy's sobs.

"They were going to free us," she whispered.

"I know, Daisy."

"We were going to get out of this hellhole!"

Daisy trembled as she sobbed. I knew she didn't mean those words. I knew that she secretly loved me. She was just scared to admit it.

I saw something that was dark brown in the distance. It was huge. My heart started to beat faster as I realized it had windows. The windows were boarded up, but it was still a house.

I grabbed Dove and Daisy and dragged them to the house. I quickly threw them in, Copper close behind. I would have to find food, as this house looked like no one had lived in it for at least a year.

I started to look through closets, trying to find a hammer. Weirdly, I found a hammer and nails. I then broke a chair and used the wood to board up the door.

I then turned towards Daisy.

I refused to look him in the eye. He was the reason that I was here in the first place. He'd done everything bad to me. He raped me, beat me, beat my friend, not allow me freedom. I absolutely despised him.

"I'll start a fire," he said, clearing his throat. He walked to the fireplace and brought the chair fragments with him. He pulled a lighter out and set fire to the wood.

Copper, Dove, and I gathered by the fire. The warmth was probably the most comforting thing I had felt in ages.

"I love you Daisy," Peter whispered.

I stayed silent. I felt his big hands pulling me towards him.

"I said I love you."

"You can do what you want to me. You can rape me, kill me, beat me, but I will never say I love you." I said through tears.

Peter suddenly started sobbing. He threw me to the ground and stood up.

"I just want you to love me! I know you love me! We made love!"

"You raped me, Peter! I never wanted it!"

"You're lying! You're just scared of commitment! I know you want to start a family with me!"

"I don't love you, get that into your sick fucking head!"

Peter ran off, sobbing.

I sighed and laid next to Copper.

"She loves me, I know it," I said to myself.

"We made love to each other, I can clearly remember it. She was moaning, or was it her crying? No, no, she enjoyed it."

I slowly stood up. "It's that stupid fucking mutt."

I pulled my pocket knife out, walking back to the living room.

"I'll kill that dog!"
