Adriel was fast asleep on the couch. Rasmus picked the kid up in his arms and walked into his room. Tucking the kid into the sheets, he closed the door, walked out, and went to his room.Catherine hasn't slept properly since she came here. Though her body begged her to fall asleep she was afraid of sleeping. The paranoia of the nightmares was vicious, nor did she have any sleeping pills or antidepressants.She left her room late at night. She descended the stairs and noticed Rasmus's jacket on the couch. He was home.She quietly checked on Adriel and he was fast asleep. She walked into the kitchen, rummaged through the fridge, and then poured herself some orange juice, grabbed the glass, and padded to the porch. The place has become her favorite place in this house. This place links to a good memory and a bad memory. She sighed looking up at the sky. The stars were twinkling beautifully and the crescent of a moon illuminated its serene light.

"You must be Catherine," the guy said and she gave him a look."Seems like I'm pretty famous in his town without even leaving the house," she mused and the guy smirked."Not really, Hunter told me about you. It's not normal for Rasmus to be near any girl, let alone indulge in someone else's business," Luca said seriously and she can tell why? The guy was a grumpy ass, who would even want to approach a brooding gorilla?"He's not home if you are here to see him. He is at the hospital with my brother." She informed him and when he threw no question her way, she got the hint that he knows a little bit about her case a little bit."Wanna have some coffee?" She asked, hoping he would stay. Because if he left she would die of silence and overthinking.

A chill of terror gripped her being as she didn't even breathe. She dared not to move as her eyes darted to look to her right through the corner of her eyes.She could swear, she saw thick gray fur. She wanted to scream so badly but no voice left her throat. She was traumatized to even move.Too much for a little adventure? Her conscience mocked. She heard the snap of the twig breaking and then her soul returned to her body. That was when she pivoted and made a blind dash for her escape but it seemed so damn far.Maybe today was her end. R.I.P Catherine."Cath!" A voice growled from behind her and she let out a shriek of horror, running faster.

She looked so tempting. The air between them was practically electric. Every fiber of his being was screaming at him to possess her, claim her right against the tree. She has shredded every ounce of his control and steel-like resistance into tiny little flakes. She wakes the feral side of him. The wild beast inside him comes alive whenever she is near. She squirmed in his grasp, faintly trying to get rid of his hold on her hair. He may have tightened his hold so he loosened up a little. Her eyes lowered down at his chest. He hates it.He f*cking hates it when she looks away, snatching him the piece of her naked soul."What do you want, Catherine?" He rasped into the shell of her ear as she swallowed a thick lump, all of sudden her throat went dry and she felt

"Let's play a game," Angela chirped. Her big forest green eyes jumped among all the participants.  "What are we? 12?" Hunter cocked a brow at his sister who gaped at him looking murderous. "I love how you state the obvious with such a sense of discovery," Angela sniped and everyone laughed out loud. Hunter narrowed his eyes at his sarcastic little sister. "What do you wanna play?" Aurora asks. And certain steel-gray eyes glided to the girl sitting on the couch with his Alpha. "Truth or dare," Angela cocked her brow suggestively. None of the guys looked the least bit interested. Rasmus has inquired why she left the premises of the house and she straight on told him. She
