It was already 11:00 in the evening.

Sabrina was lying on the other side of the bed, while Rhett was getting closer a few inches away from her, slowly closing the distance between them.

She noticed that he was advancing towards her like a piranha. Dang! she was already on the edge of the bed. She released a deep sigh and glared at him. "Do you think I didn\'t notice that you\'re already invading my space?"

Rhett grinned. "I just want to be closer to you just in case you will fall from the bed, I\'ll be able to catch you on time," he said and winked at her.

Sabrina threw daggers while looking into his eyes. "Stay away from me!" she yelled.

Rhett smiled and pinched her nose. "Alright... but not for long. Later, when the cold is getting too much for your body to endure, you have no choice but to beg for my sweet embrace," he said with a wink.

Sabrina sighed. Rhett is right. When the freezing temperature begins, she wants to be enclosed in his hot embrace to survive the night.

Time went by.

Outside the cave, the full moon shines brightly.

Meanwhile...

A hundred miles away, the wolves are howling.

A few hours passed.

Midnight finally comes.

The freezing temperature began to circulate the cave.

Sabrina can already feel the cold enveloping her entire body. She was already shivering, about to get frozen alive. But she remained resolute not to ask for his help.

Rhett looked at her, shaking his head. Sabrina is stubborn as always, she would rather die than seek the warmth of his body. He took matters into his own hands and went closer, he wrapped his arms around her trembling body and covered them with the blanket. "Feeling better?" he whispered in her ear.

Sabrina nods her head and replies, "Yeah... thanks..."

"Sleep well..." he said and planted a kiss on her head.

"Good night," Sabrina responded and shut her eyes. Her mind was bombarded with the thoughts of him. Rhett\'s body felt like heaven amidst the freezing temperature raging around her, it\'s always been like this every time their bodies touched.

In his embrace, she felt secure and protected. She will have a peaceful sleep now that she was tucked deliciously in his arms. A small smile emerged in the corner of her lips. She\'s starting to like Rhett. Actually, he\'s not that bad at all. But then, the feeling that starts growing in her heart makes her vulnerable.

While lying on the bed embracing and enjoying Sabrina\'s warm body enclosed in his arms, Rhett could hear the howling of wolves from the outside, getting louder, calling his name, urging him to come out of the cave.

He ignored the howling of his kind waiting outside. He can\'t leave Sabrina alone during this freezing temperature.

Sabrina also heard the howling of the wolves. She looked at Rhett and spoke, "The wolves are howling so loud. What could be the reason?" she asked anxiously.

Rhett sighed. "Don\'t mind them..." he said.

"Are they your family?" Sabrina asked, she heard the same howling when Rhett\'s father and his siblings visited the cave.

Rhett nodded his head. "Yeah, you are right. They\'re here... waiting outside for my coming out of the cave," he replied.

Sabrina tensed immediately. "Y-you want to leave the cave right now? You want to leave me alone here?" she asked apprehensively, seeking his eyes for the truth.

Rhett took a deep breath and planted a kiss on her forehead. "Calm down. I promise you that I won\'t leave you here. I won\'t back out from my promise. I\'ll stay here with you \'till the end of time," he stated. "Besides, I can\'t leave this cave without your kiss, and I\'m not gonna forced you to give me that kiss unwillingly..." he added.

Sabrina was silent for a moment, her heart was beating wildly. "And what if I\'ll give you the kiss? You will still leave me?" she asked nervously.

"Even if you give me the kiss, I will never leave you alone here," Rhett replied in a serious tone.

Sabrina breathed a sigh of relief, feeling satisfied with his sincere answer. "Thank you..." she said softly and buried her face on his chest, inhaling his masculine scent.

"Go to sleep now, don\'t worry too much..." Rhett said and kissed her head tenderly. He rubbed her back gently, giving her assurance that he will never abandon her no matter what\'s gonna happen in the future.

The howling of the wolves continues until past midnight.

Rhett was still wide awake during that time.

On the other hand, Sabrina was already snoring softly in his sweet embrace. He loves cuddling with Sabrina. During day time, she was aloof and irritable towards him, but when midnight comes, she melted in his arms, ready for the taking.

What a big contrast between Sabrina\'s attitude during night and day, he observed.

Smirking, he buried his fingers in her silky hair. "You\'re mine, forever and ever," he said softly, desperately wanting to mark her as his woman right now. But Sabrina is not yet ready to open up her heart to him. It takes time, but he\'s willing to wait for that final moment when she\'s finally ready to accept him. That would be the most glorious day ever!

Outside the cave.

The wolves are finally leaving the cave when they have finally realized that the one they\'re waiting for is not yet ready to leave the cave and join them.

Among the wolves are the Alpha Hozer and his beloved Luna which is Rhett\'s mother along with their children.

They left the cave and went home back to their territories, empty-handed, disappointed, and confused why their son refused to leave the cave?

The following day.

After waking up and performing their morning routine. The couple went to the entrance of the cave, waiting for their breakfast to arrive.

Grandma Azere approached the cave, expecting to see her charge alone in the cave. She was confident that the wolf was already gone last night. Well... that was her expectation. To her utter surprise, she saw Rhett and Sabrina waiting for her.

What\'s going on?

The wolf didn\'t give the aphrodisiac to her charge?

Why?

She placed the basket on top of the rock and looked at the couple for a few minutes.

Wearing a bright smile on her face, Sabrina greeted her benefactor in a cheerful voice. "Good morning, Grandma!"

"Good morning!" Grandma Azere smiled at her charge. Then she looked at Rhett and gave him a questioning glance, he was trying to avoid her gaze.

"What\'s breakfast for today, Grandma?" Sabrina asked excitedly.

"I prepare your favorite eggplant omelette and there also fried fish. The dishes I brought today is enough for your lunch as well," Grandma Azere replied, it\'s her way of telling the couple that she won\'t be returning at lunch.

Sabrina smiled. "Wow, yummy! Thank you, Grandma!" she said, beaming brightly.

"Alright, eat your breakfast now. I\'ll return later in the afternoon before the evening comes," Grandma Azere said and glanced at the wolf before leaving the cave.

"Thanks for the food, Grandma. Take care on your way home," Rhett said.

Grandma Azere nods her head and continues walking away, going back to her hut.

Rhett grabbed the basket.

The couple went back to the chamber to eat breakfast.

Unknown to them, a pair of eyes were spying on them, hiding behind the trunk of the biggest tree, a few meters away from the cave.
