Chapter 13: Chapter 13

Eliana's Point of View

I sat in the back seat of Liam's SUV while Killian sat in the passenger seat and Liam drove. I was still surprised that Killian decided to come to the Werewolf Kids shelter to drop off food. I was also shocked that it was his idea to have Liam take the leftover food to them. I just looked out of the window as Liam drove. Once we arrived, we got out of the car. Liam started taking the food out of the back seat. I reached over to get help.

"You don't need to help me, Eliana. I got it," Liam said

"No, I want to help," I said. I was about to grab the last two bags, which had Chinese food in them, but Killian took them before I could. That caused me to look at him

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"I got it. Come on," Killian said, then he turned and walked toward the front door. I looked at Liam to see he had a huge grin on his face as he stared at me.

"What?" I asked

"It's nothing," Liam said, and then he followed after Killian. I did the same. A lady who looked to be in her early thirties opened the door before we made it to the front door.

"Hello, Prince Killian," the woman said with a smile on her face.

"Hello, Lidia," Killian said

Come in," Lidia said as she moved out of the way so we could walk inside. "Thanks for bringing this food. The pups are going to love it. We will put it in the fridge and have it for lunch tomorrow," Lidia said

"It's nothing, Killiian replied as we got to the kitchen and Liam and he sat the food on the counter

"The pups are going to be so upset they missed you. They love it when you come to visit them. You are always so good to them, bringing them toys and food all of the time," Lidia said. That made me look at him in surprise. I never expected him to care so much for the children.

"Tell them I will come and visit them soon. Oh, this is Eliana," Killian said and Lidia looked at me. I didn't miss her shocked expression when she saw my purple hair and eyes. She was looking me up and down in a rude way. I just ignored it. I was used to it after all

"Hello," I said with a smile on my face. I was honestly nervous. I was sure she thought I was a freak. I was sure she wasn't going to let me volunteer so I decided not to ask. I could tell I made her uncomfortable.

"Hello," Lidia said as she stared at my eyes

"Eliana wants to help with the pups. I thought it would be a good idea. What do you think?" Killian asked. I was sure she was going to say no so I was shocked at her answer

"Of course, that would be okay. I mean, you are recommending her. When would you like to help?" Lidia asked. Before I could respond Killian spoke

"Maybe a few hours on the weekends. Eliana is a college student, and she needs to focus on her studies. How many hours do you need?" killian asked me. I wondered if he knew I needed to do this for my scholarship

"Um, twenty by the end of the semester," I replied

"Okay, then you could come a few hours on Saturday and Sunday," Killian said

We said goodbye to Lidia and left. The ride back was silent. I looked out the window and was deep in thought. Once we made it back to the house Killian and I got out of the car and Liam left. All of the lights were off in the house and I was sure Ashley was asleep and James wasn't home.

"I am going to go to my room," I said as soon as we were inside.

"Okay," Killian said, and I started walking. I noticed Killian was walking beside me

"What are you doing?" I asked

"I am going to my room," Killian said

"Right," I replied, feeling a little embarrassed. I pressed the button for the elevator. Once it opened Killian and I got in.

"Why weren't you going to ask Lidia about volunteering?" Killian asked

"Because I am sure she would say no," I replied

"Why would you think that?" Killian asked

"Because I could tell she was uncomfortable around me. You know, because of the way I look," I replied

"I am sure you are saying that because of your eyes and hair color, right?" Killian asked

"You already know why I am saying that. Everyone sees me as a freak because of them," I replied

"I don't think so," Killian said

"Yeah, right," I replied as the elevator opened.

"Anyway, thanks for tonight. Goodnight," I said as we walked out of the elevator. I was about to walk to my room, but Killian stopped me.

"Wait," Killian said as he grabbed my arm softly. I could feel these sensational sparks go through my body.

"Huh," I whispered

"I don't think you are a freak. I think you are beautiful," Killian said. We were staring at each other for a moment, and then I don't know what happened. All of a sudden, Killian connected his lips to mine causing electrical sparks to go all through my body.

"Killian, stop," I said, and I moved away from him. His eyes were on me, and he was breathing roughly. So was I. I was feeling so weird. My body was hot, and I could feel wetness between my legs.

"Eliana,, I am so, sorr..." he finished his sentence. I connected my lips to his. I knew it was wrong for so many reasons. I knew I shouldn't. There were so many reasons I shouldn't, but at the moment, none of that mattered. The only thing that mattered was Killian and me. So, without thinking, I connected my lips to his.
