Intruders

Come lay with me for hours so we can talk about thousands of nothing while it means millions of things

The next day, all of the photos about Torak and Raine were taken down, but there are some discussions on line that are still discussing this.

News of Torak and the mysterious girl are being talked about all over the country and Raphael is racking his brain to do something to make his impact a little less.

The bright side was; Torak did not urge him on the matter so that the Beta could relax for a little while.

And the 'while' that was meant was; it was really only for a moment, because early in the morning Alpha Xavier had gone berserk because his daughter had been captured and held by Torak.

He demanded to speak to Supreme Alpha directly, but Raphael could not grant this request.

"Supreme Alpha Torak can't meet you for now." Raphael repeated his words again and again. However, the angry Alpha would not listen to him.

"If he doesn't want to see me, then it doesn't matter!" xavier Alpha Spray. "But I want my daughter back!"

"We can't release your daughter without the permission of Supreme Alpha Torak." Raphael said firmly. "The Alpha Torak will inform you when you will meet."

Alpha Xavier's eyes turned dark, the monster inside him was furious, but this did not melt the Beta. He remained calm as usual.

"I'll see him now!" He yelled.

All rooms on the third floor of the hotel have been booked for Torak, Raphael, Calleb and his fighters. Because of yesterday's problems, Torak had given them a clear command that he did not want any uninterested human beings or other creatures except his people who were on this floor.

Alpha Xavier pressed the elevator button to take him upstairs, but Raphael held his shoulder firmly.

"Xavier, I wouldn't try my luck if I were you." Raphael warned Xavier with his rough voice as his green eyes turned black. "Retreat!"

A low growl rang out from Alpha Xavier's chest. Raphael had already been extremely brazen by calling him by name alone without his status as Alpha.

But, despite his status as an Alpha, Raphael was no ordinary figure. He was the second most brutal and savage lycan ever on this earth.

This fact alone is worth considering.

His anger had left him blind, but Alpha Xavier did not press any further, this was not only because he would not get his daughter back, but it was likely that he would lose his head as well.

Xavier roughly brushed Raphael's hand off his shoulder which had restrained him and went in a different direction.

When the enraged Alpha is nowhere to be seen, Calleb approaches Raphael casually. He had been watching this quarrel from the other side, not bothering to interfere because he knew that such a situation could be handled well by the Beta.

"So, you don't wonder what our Alpha is doing right now?" Calleb asked casually, a grin adorning his lips when he saw Raphael glaring at him.

"Think of your own business Cal." Raphael muttered as his eyes changed to their original color.

The grin on Calleb's face turned into a flirtatious smile, "Well, if I find my partner I won't want my morning interrupted as well." He's laughing a little.

"Your imagination is too far away." Raphael hits Calleb's back.

In the presidential suite, where Torak was looking at sleeping Raine, the sun was shining, but he prevented the light from entering.

Torak didn't want to wake Raine up, so he closed the whole curtain. He had cleared his schedule this morning and noon, hence he wanted to spend every second of his time together with Raine.

Unknowingly, Torak walked down Raine's face, played a strand of his black hair between his fingers and smiled at himself.

Maybe because of the long journey and the thing that happened yesterday, which caused Raine fatigue, he did not wake up at all.

Suddenly, Raine's eyes moved open, perhaps because of Torak's touch or his intense gaze that had awakened him.

Her eyes were shaking before her eyes opened. Raine blinked a few times and rubbed the drowsiness from his eyes before he realized the whereabouts of Torak next to him.

"Good morning, my love." Torak greeted him, with a smile. He had long since forgotten the last time he smiled like this.

Raine turned his head away and his obsidian-like black eyes met Torak blue eyes.

Surprised, Raine's lips slightly opened before he finally sat up straight and crawled away from Torak.

However, Torak catches his ankle as he flips his body and pulls Raine back. "Where are you going?"

Raine's small body, like a kitten, is pulled back by the wolf. Raine thrashed from Torak's grasp, but this made Torak entertained when he saw Raine's efforts were in vain.

Torak hugs Raine from behind, trapping Raine between his sturdy hands. "I told you not to be afraid of me." Torak said slowly, almost like a whisper, around Raine's neck while breathing from his distinctive scent.

It was not Raine's intention to fear Torak, but when he had to wake up next to the man he had just met, it naturally shocked him greatly.

After a few minutes of thrashing and Torak did not move at all, in the end Raine chose to stay still.

Torak's hair tickled Raine's neck with his hands hugging her, strangely, making Raine feel safe.

She didn't know why she felt that way, but Raine let Torak hug her.

After Torak felt that Raine was not fighting him anymore, he lifted his head from Raine's shoulders. "Let's have breakfast first and then buy something pretty for you to wear. What say?"

Raine was still wearing the same oversized clothes and shabby jeans he had been wearing since yesterday, and Torak did not like this.

Raine nodded slowly. What else could he do? That's a very interesting offer to hear.

The Torak's lips formed a smile. "I'll take a shower after that you and we'll have breakfast together, okay?"

Raine nodded again.

Torak loosened his arms at Rained and gave a small kiss on his neck. This simple kiss frightened Raine, but he also felt that a butterfly was flying in his stomach.

Is it too soon to trust this man? The man that Raine just met less than forty-eight hours ago? Raine is confused, but he believes her.

Raine was speechless, but that didn't mean he wasn't aware of their close interaction.

Who exactly is this guy?

Torak got out of bed and walked to the bathroom. After that, the sound of water could be heard from within. His voice was so clear, it seemed Torak left the door open. Raine blushed when he realized this reality.

On a mattress that seemed to be enough for seven people, Raine observed his feet. Yesterday's wounds have started to heal. Raine then crawled down from the bed and tried to stand up, the pain he felt yesterday was already not felt, so he took a few steps towards the curtain and pulled it open.

In an instant, he had been bathed in the shining light of the sun. Instinctively, Raine turned away from that dazzling light and covered her still sleepy eyes.

When Raine's eyes got used to it, he opened it slowly.

But something caught his attention and made adrenaline Raine hunt in his veins.

Raine blinked his eyes rapidly at the figure before him, as if he could not believe that there was anyone else in the room.

But, the figure began to speak with his low and terrifying voice. "She finally found you."
