10 HER SILENCE 2

She just sits there in silence.

"I think Raine needs to change her clothes before she catches a cold." Raphael pointed out Raine's wet sweatshirt and jeans.

Torak glared at Raphael who consecutively sent his mate away, but agreed with his point. "Yes, you need to change." He grumbled.

Torak reluctantly let go of his little mate who was shivering from fear and cold, swiftly she hid herself behind Anne's back.

Raine didn't immediately go to change her clothes, but slightly tilted her head, asking Anne's permission. Only after Anne nodded, she moved away.

Torak didn't like this.

Why would his mate need to ask for permission to leave?

"Raine, I think you forgot something." Raphael raised the white plastic bag that was contained with medicine that Raine brought before.

Raine stopped and turned to look at him, but didn't make any movement to come closer. Probably still afraid if Torak changed his mind and caught her again.

Occasionally, she would glance at Calleb direction. This gesture confirmed Calleb's guess earlier that mentioned she was able to see him.

Torak snatched the white plastic bag from Raphael's hand and strode towards her.

Raine became tense to the point where she was considering running away, but Torak briskly took her hand and handed it. "Change your clothes, we will leave immediately." He said.

He could see the confusion and fear in her eyes as she clutched the plastic bag from him and ran away, cut off the sparks that Torak felt from the skin to skin contact with her. He took a deep breath to calm his inner wolf that wanted so badly to chase after his mate.

[Follow her] Torak said through mind-link to Calleb who was chasing his own tail.

The grey wolf stood on his four legs and began to walk lightly toward the direction where Raine had disappeared.

==============

Inside the office, Anne left an old woman with round glasses perched on the bridge of her nose, before she left the room, saying she would check on Raine.

The old woman looked grumpy because her good night sleep was interrupted.

However, neither Torak nor Raphael paid attention to this fact. They needed to finish the matter here as soon as possible. It was already polite of them to deal with this paper of adoption and followed the rule instead of bringing her away in the first place.

Mrs. Lang, the person who was in charge in the orphanage, looked anxious when she handed all the papers that were needed to be signed.

"Mr. Donovan, you still have a counseling meeting to attend." Mrs. Lang was holding Raine's document when she explained the procedure of adoption.

He sat on the couch and let Raphael deal with the grumpy old lady. Both of them were talking about the procedures of adoption while Torak was flipping Raine's document.

"She had been in a mental institution for three years?" Torak said out loud his question while still holding the report.

"Yes, she was just discharged a year ago." Mrs. Lang said. She pushed her glasses while she continued. "She never talks since the first time she was here."

"What happened to her?" Raphael chimed in.

"Based on the report that I received, at the age of eight, she lost both of her parents, after that there was a close friend of her father who adopted her, but that family found something wrong with Raine and put her in a mental institution."

"For what reason?" Raphael asked, although somehow he knew the answer.

Mrs. Lang shrugged. "They said she kept talking about something that doesn't make sense."

"Such as?"

"She kept talking about horrifying creatures around her and there was one of them that wanted to kill her."

Raphael glanced at Torak who was tightening his grip on the paper, his jaw clenched tightly when he heard there was another supernatural creature hunting his mate and this fool human put Raine in mental institution instead.

"The family that adopted Raine didn't want to take her back, so they put her in this orphanage." Mrs. Lang sighed. "May I know the reason why do you insist on adopting her?"

Raphael was about to answer, but Torak beat him to it. "I owe her father a great favor, so I intended to return the good deed." Torak lied smoothly.

It seemed Mrs. Lang only asked that question out of curiosity, not even concerned to ask for more detail. Apparently, she was relieved that there was someone who wanted to take the girl.

Honestly, she was a little bit scared by Raine's behavior.

That girl is unusual…

Torak didn't like the distasteful look that Mrs. Lang showed him when she talked about his mate as subconsciously he let out a deep growl that startled her.

Raphael cleared his throat when Anne walked inside the room to save the awkward situation.

"Where is Raine?" Torak stood up in alertness when he saw Anne came alone.
