Catherine jerked awake when a bucket of cold water was splashed on her roughly. Her whole body shook in terror and shock as she was abruptly yanked out of her slumber.She rapidly blinked her eyes to adjust her sight and she was met with the worst sight ever.Jasper stood hovering over her. A cruel smirk plastered on his face as his eyes lingered down to her chest, her clothes were wet. She immediately wrapped her arm around her chest and scooted away from him, her other arm wasn't even moving and because of the water, her plaster and gauze were all wet now."Why are you scared of me now? I'm going to be your mate soon," He mused and her stomach churned in anxiety.She didn't answer him at all. Her throat was all clogged up and her tongue refused to form any words. Her condition made him smirk as he crouched down near her and stared at her like a creep. He forwards his hand to caress her cheek but she flinches back and tilts her face away in disgust.Her act didn't settle well with hi
There was smoke and dust everywhere but within all the chaos, she heard the vicious snarling of the wolves. The ones were similar to the ones when they were attacked.A huge wolf appeared at the main entrance and her heart rattled in her chest as she recognized that gray fur.He wasn't alone. A wolf with Ash fur with the same huge frame stood beside him. She watched in dire silence as wolves after wolves started to stalk in.There was pin-drop silence in the whole place as everyone held their breath. Her eyes met that wolf with gray fur and without any words spoken, she knew it was Rasmus. The wolf snarled and pounced forward and the group of men that were between Catherine and Rasmus started to shift into their wolf forms and within seconds there was a war between them all. Snarling.Howling.Gnashing. Blood.She was pulled out of her ghastliness when Jasper started to drag her away from there and she began to struggle wildly. "L...leave me!" She screamed and tried to free her arm
She wasn't even looking at anyone. Her eyes were fixed on the floor and she was slightly trembling. His heart churned in pain at the sight of her but he couldn't breathe as he continued to look at the mark on her neck.A loud howl of pain was heard and the female wolf was on the floor. He could scent the wolves who were fighting Alonso's beta, they were from Alonso's pack but it seemed as if they were protecting Catherine. By their scents, he also recognized that the two injured wolves were also present there at the time of the attack.Rasmus turned to face Jasper and his blood boiled in raw fury when he could smell Catherine on him.With a vicious snarl, he lunged at his wolf instantly sinking his canines into the back of his neck but Jasper got out of his grip and was back on his claws.Rasmus didn't give him the advantage of attack as he pounced at him again trying to get a chunk of his neck but the f*cker dodged his attack. Rasmus snapped his jaw as he rounded the beta who was st
"She's bleeding," Silvia said in a scared voice.Rasmus's head whipped in her direction and he stalked towards her before shifting to his human form.Catherine blinked as within seconds she was facing Rasmus. Silvia walked further into the room as she grabbed a few clothes from the van and tossed a huge shirt to Clarke, and shorts to Reid, and then she hesitantly handed shorts to Rasmus who wore them."Cath," He whispered in a gentle voice and she just blinked at him without saying a word.Her eyes lowered down to the claw marks on his chest that were healing slowly.Her eyes then flickered to Silvia who stood at the door and Catherine's foot wavered, her legs numb and she was about to fall but Rasmus instantly grabbed her waist pulling her delicate form to his chest.Her whole body was trembling. The tremors only worsened. "She must be marked. Her body cannot cope with that slight serum of Jasper's canines, as he wasn't able to fully mark her, she might die because the serum was tur
Her entire body was aching with pain. It felt as if tons of weight were placed on her body and her eyes refused to open. She couldn't move her hand at all. It was restrained.Her eyes shot open wide and she let out a huge gasp, her chest arching up before she fell back on the bed. Eyes still wide gazing at the unfamiliar ceiling.She peered down at her arm that was restrained and she found it to be in plaster and just like flashbacks hit her hard and everything that had happened in the past few days came crashing on her.She looked to her right and her breathing hitched when she found Rasmus sleeping on the chair beside her bed.She didn't dare to breathe louder so as not to wake him up. Catherine watched him in sheer silence. He has rough stubble, dark circles under his eyes, and even though he was sleeping. His face looked tense. She didn't know for how long she continued to stare at him.She tried to move only to stifle a wince when a pain shot through her shoulder and to her jaw.
They talked a little more and then said their goodbyes. Rasmus placed the phone away and then he gently cupped her cheeks and she stiffened but he softly wiped her tears away with the pad of his thumb."Cath?" Her name was like a soft melody on his lips. She didn't say anything. She just silently closed her eyes and pretended to sleep. Rasmus instantly noticed how detached she was acting but he didn't ask her anything. He kissed her temple and the sparks flew, she gasped and he knew she felt it too. He let her sleep as he moved away and sat back on the chair. The pack doctor had treated her wounds. He had told him how her body was weak because she was given drugs.She had a dislocated wrist which was put back correctly so the doctor checked it and plastered it again more efficiently. There were bruises on her neck like someone tried to choke her to death. Chain marks on her ankles which were now in the form of bruises. The side of her face was also bruised.He didn't sleep the whole
Silvia tensed but she didn't look up at him."I'd be interrogating her alone," Hunter said curtly as he stood from his chair and grabbed his jacket, straightening it with force, he rounded the table.Reid stood up in a protective stance hiding Silvia on his back. "She's not a criminal that you'll interrogate her," Reid said with slight anger. Hunter didn't even spare him a glance. His jade green eyes that looked like cold glaciers only peered at Silvia whose foot was nervously tapping the floor, she wasn't looking up at him. She was so glad for the presence of Reid."I'll just ask her random questions. As a confirmation that none of you guys are lying, just so that I could trust you all," Hunter said smoothly, voice coming out deep and somehow his answer had satisfied Reid."R...Ried?" Silvia whispered in a shaky voice and Reid turned to face her."It's alright. You don't need to be afraid. He'll just ask you simple questions." Reid said, assuring her as Silvia stood up and Hunter fl
"N...nothing... I... I just want to go back home," she was persistent."And I'm asking why, baby?" He was trying to be gentle to her."I d...don't want to stay here," she whispered, looking anywhere but at him."Why do you want to leave? Adriel will be here in the early morning. It's not safe in the city yet you want to go back. Why?" He asked straightforwardly and she gulped feeling as if she was put under the spotlight.Catherine was tongue-tied, she didn't know what to say anymore. She was so frustrated and tired of everything. Yet she didn't have it in her to tell him what she felt or what was going through her mind.She slowly tried to get out of the bed and he came to her side instantly. "Where are you going?" He asked, holding her hand while his other hand was on her waist."Restroom," She mumbled and he helped her all the way there. Though she could walk on her own, she didn't complain. There was so much going in her mind to think about such a small act from his side.Once ins
5 months later. "Baby, what can I do, please tell me." Rasmus's soft voice was heard but Cath only glared at him. "I don't know. I'm just angry. Stop looking at me. No... bring me ice cream. No... I don't even know what I'm craving. This is scary that I don't even know what I want. Why are you staring at me? I look like a fat potato. Oh my God... I'm not beautiful anymore..." She was blabbering nonstop. A soft smile graced his lips as he watched her quietly. She woke up in the middle of the night saying she wanted his attention and now she was talking nonstop. She has been like this for the past few months. His mom said that these were the pregnancy perks or something of that sort. He didn't complain. "You are even more beautiful now." He mused and her jaw slacked, eyes watering up. She was also being too emotional these days. "Stop it..." She says dramatically while swaying her hand. "I need ice cream," She muttered. "Just five minutes, baby." He said as he walked out of the r
Every one of the pack members was gathered in the hall. Rasmus was right beside his sister. Xander and Emma stood to her left. Cath, Hunter, Angela, Luca, Clarke, Reid, Davis, Adriel, Agatha, all of them were there except Silvia, she had left right after Catherine's wedding. She left without even saying goodbye, just leaving a note behind for Clarke and Reid not to worry about her and nor to look for her.Davis brought the cake and Cath along with Angela set the candlelights.Aurora was smiling shyly. Angela and Cath had lifted her mood after her talk with Luca."Make a wish," Angela chirped as Luca glared at her. Feeling his gaze on her she glanced at him and scrunched her nose while poking out her tongue at him.He rolled his eyes at her tactics.Aurora closed her eyes as she wished to have the most caring and loving man as her mate. She opened her eyes and blew out the candles. Grabbing the knife she cut the cake as everyone cheered and wished her happy birthday.She fed the cake t
She clutched his shoulders as he moved inside her.She noticed that he was looking down where they were connected and her stomach tightened. He growled when she pulled at his hair and yanked him down for a kiss. She kissed him passionately and his pace fastened. Just when she was about to come he pulled out of her.She whined as he moved out of the bed but she shrieked when he turned her around with his arm on her waist and she found herself on her fours. He grabbed her ass before slamming into her hard. She arched her back as he slapped her ass cheek and pounded in her hard."So f*cking beautiful," He growled as his veiny hand roamed her back. She tensed when he caressed her scars. "Beautiful," He rasped as he grabbed her hair in a fist and yanked her up, his hand wrapped around her throat as she turned her neck to kiss him.One of his hands squeezed her bosom while his other hand barely constricted her air supplies as he pounded in her hard."I..I'm..." She was mewling when he pull
No matter how many times Rasmus tried to snatch Catherine away from everyone but the poor man was unable to get the chance alone with his wife. His sisters were with Cath like her second skin and not to forget Quinn and Avery. All the girls were hell-bent on keeping Cath away and making Rasmus all grumpy and needy.The celebrations were still going on in full swing. The night approached but no one seemed tired. They were dancing, chatting, and enjoying dinner.Silvia was sitting quietly on the couch when Agatha came to sit beside her."So what do you think?" Agatha asked and the girl breathed in deeply. "I'll be leaving tomorrow for the training," she said and Agatha smiled. "Excellent, you have the powers of ancient witches. You are far stronger than you think. This training would help you control your magic and you'll learn many things," Agatha said as Silvia nodded her head."Your husband is dying to have you. Jeez. Just look at how pissed he looks." Avery mused as she nudged Cath
"I'm talking to you?" Hunter growled lowly as he grabbed her elbow and turned her around rather roughly. Silvia had walked away from the backyard, there were so many people, and the visions she was having since the past few days had affected her severely. She needed to get her thoughts together.Whatever she saw in her visions. She couldn't afford to let it happen. Silvia has to make up her mind soon."Why the f*ck are you ignoring me, witch?" He sneered in low menace causing her to flinch back as she tried to get her elbow free from his brutal hold but it seemed impossible."Y..you a..are hurting me..." She whispered trying to free her arm but Hunter wasn't having it.He dragged her along with him into one of the guestrooms and closed the door shut with such force that it rattled badly. The next thing he pushed her against that same door placing one of his hands on the side of her head as he glared down at her."Listen here and listen well" He started. His voice was cold as ice as hi
Xander walked into the room where Catherine was standing silently. "You look stunning," He complimented, and her cheeks tinted red. "Thank you," She smiled politely at the man. Though Rasmus was intimidating, Mr. Colt was on another level. At this age, he still looks so young and fit. Surely girls would swoon over him if he ever went to her university. She couldn't wait to see Avery's reaction when she would see Rasmus's dad. Just last week they announced their pregnancy to everyone and it was Emma who planned this small cozy wedding for Catherine. As the only human being in this pack. She knew the importance of marriage for a human. As for werewolves, their kind of marriage was when they mark and claim their mate but now if one of them was human, then marriage was a must. Catherine was in tears when Emma announced their marriage and Rasmus was the happiest as he took her shopping on the same day. But they didn't go alone. Davis and four other men came along with them in anoth
"Angela I want your brother right now," Emma demanded curtly and Angela sighed in exaggeration."I'm looking for him, mom," Angela said as she left again to look for Hunter for the third time in a day. It was like he was hiding away purposely.It was understandable that he didn't like weddings and all but seriously. The man was hiding away so he didn't have to be a groomsman. The perks of that man.Even Luca was all grumpy and irritated as he did the last checkups.Almost all of the pack was present in the backyard waiting for the ceremony to begin."Where's Rasmus?" Emma asked aghast as she looked at Aurora who shrugged her shoulders awkwardly.Catherine was checking out her dress, making sure that everything was perfect and she had worn everything that she had shopped for her wedding.The door opened and then it closed. "Clarke, can you please adjust the flow of the tail, please," Cath said loudly and she heard Clarke approaching.Catherine was fully drowned in adjusting her dress f
"I'm alive because of you three," Catherine said softly as she gazed at those who had saved her life despite being her kidnappers."We were done with Alonso. He was on a rampage of destruction. We aren't killers," Reid said seriously as Luca, Hunter, and Rasmus gazed at the guy. The three of them had taken him to the training barracks where he showed his fighting skills, and to be honest, the three of them were immensely impressed and that wasn't it, they would also get to learn new tricks and ways how Alonso's men fight. Reid would be a great help to them and their warriors and that wasn't it. Even his mate Clarke was a skilled fighter as well as a Doctor.Silvia on the other hand was a silent, timid type of girl. It was said that she could have a vision of the future, one of the powers she has being a witch. Rasmus had asked the three of them if they wanted to stay and be a part of the moon pack and they agreed despite Hunter's disapproval.Somehow Hunter didn't have any problem wi
He kissed her slowly and it soon deepened as he kissed her hard enough to stake his claim on her.She was shuddering in his arms as he continued to kiss her, snatching her soul out of her body and he finally broke the kiss when she punched at his shoulders. Indicating him to let her breathe.She panted heavily as the kiss ended with a sloppy sound. With her heart drumming in her ears she finally opened her eyes to look at him.He was breathing heavily as well. She watched as he lay beside her and he placed his face in the crook of her neck laying kisses on her neck.She caressed his arm that draped around her waist as she tried to calm her erratically beating heart down. "Am I dreaming?" She asked in a small whisper and Rasmus smiled."We are at my favorite place and I just made crazy love to you, I loved every bit of it and I confessed my feelings for you," He rasped and her heart, which was calming down slightly, started to beat at a wild pace."You l...love me?" She asked in a whis
