Let Me See You

I am a wolf and she, my moon.

The sky was still dark, but the rain had stopped.

By the time they finally got out of the orphanage, two black cars were already waiting for them at the entrance gate.

Anne insists on delivering them, while Ms. Lang chose to continue sleeping his night.

The night wind after the rain was very cold, but it did not seem to have any effect on Torak and Raphael, while Calleb had already turned back into his wolf form and had left first.

The floor in the corridor was slippery because of the splashing rain and Raine almost slipped a few times, fortunately, Torak was very quick to catch him.

Raine, you should pay attention to your attitude and not give trouble to Mr. Donovan." Anne warns Raine firmly, she has been used to threatening Raine since the first time this girl came to the orphanage. "You should know yourself and not embarrass Mr. Donovan. Understood?"

Raine kept staring at the slippery floor below, being careful not to slip again. He was already used to the way Anne spoke to him, so Raine did not pay much attention to what Anne said as she nodded her head in response.

"He can do whatever he wants. Even if he were to flatten this place, I wouldn't refuse, he just needed to say it." Torak answered coldly. She wrapped her hands around Raine's waist to help him walk more stably.

On the other hand, Anne laughed wryly when she heard Torak's statement, Anne thought that it was just a very bold joke.

But, the thing he did not know was; a serious streak in every word he said.

When the main gate was only a hundred meters away, they saw Calleb in his human form, running to them with blankets and leather jackets.

"Sir." Calleb stopped right in front of Torak and gave Torak a blanket which then wrapped Raine's body with the warm blanket, after which Torak wore a leather jacket for himself, covering his wet clothes.

Raine raised his head to look at Torak with a surprised expression that Torak thought was very funny, he then grabbed the blanket before holding Raine and carrying him towards the car that had been waiting for them.

Calleb grimaced as he saw how Anne's expression changed as he saw how Torak treated Raine.

A CEO, a billionaire, holding a former mental hospital patient? Who's gonna believe this? but, this is really happening!

Raphael and Calleb then leave Anne still shocked in disbelief, they say nothing as the two walk away.

Raine couldn't help but bite his lips, despite the warm and reserved feeling Torak gave him, Raine still felt a little strange about their closeness.

However, not a single person had ever approached her and held her so attentively for the past eight years, as Torak did

With heart, Torak lowers Raine into the black SUV car that has been waiting for them, he puts Raine in the passenger seat, next to the driver's seat and wears a seat belt on him.

Afterwards, Torak walks around the car and sits behind the wheel while the others, who come along with Calleb, pick up different cars, including Raphael and Calleb.

This was the first time Raine had left the orphanage after he had arrived here. And so, he became very nervous.

Raine had seen how Calleb had changed from being an ash-wolf to a human and these people did not look like normal humans, or perhaps they were not humans in general?

Raine glanced towards Torak who started the car engine and took them out of the orphanage area.

Is he the same as Calleb? Can he turn into a wolf? Is he going to hurt me? Many questions revolved around Raine's head.

Without Raine himself noticing, he had been staring at Torak for quite a long time.

On the other hand, Torak felt a curious look from Raine's gaze at him, but when Torak looked back at him, Raine lowered his gaze, instead, hiding her face behind her silken hair before she finally pulled the hoodie from the sweater she was wearing over her head.

Raine was completely hiding himself from Torak's gaze.

It was rare for Raine to stare at others right in their eyes because she was afraid to see how those people judged her and the scornful gazes from their eyes.

Torak stopped the car.

Raine's grasp on his blanket became even tighter. Raine was confused, had he made a mistake? He could feel as Torak extended his hand towards him.

Is he going to hit me? Raine trembled with that thought.

On the other hand, Torak pulled the hoodie from Raine's head and gently tucked the strands of his hair behind his ears.

"Don't." Torak said firmly, "I want to see you, don't hide…"
