I sat and tucked against the fragile mud wall, shivering as the cold ran down, even with my knees pressed against my chest. From the corner of my eyes, I saw Abel, shirtless, not even flinch as he cleaned our used glasses. My hands were shoved in between my thighs—in an attempt to warm them up.

The wind was howling outside, occasionally making the front door of the hut creak and shake - which initially freaked me, but I was used to the eerie sound.

We had no other choice but to stay indoors, wishing for the time to pass sooner. The older Alpha visited us again, suggesting to use the rolled-up mattress and alone blanket. I had the urge to scream and clarify that we were not a couple.
