"Calleb, talk to me... come back... I miss you... I miss my big brother..." Raine whispered softly into the beast's ear, as tears rolled down his fine brown fur.
Her small shoulders shook and her body clung so tightly to the beast that she looked like a koala cub clinging on to its mother.
"Calleb, I miss you... come back..." Raine grabbed Calleb tight as if she wouldn't loosen her grip on him until she got him back.
On the other hand, the beast's snarl turned into a grunt full of pain before finally turning into a low whimper as he began to lower his head and closed his eyes shut.
The beast seemed to have give up on struggling free from the guardian angel's tight hug, because he couldn't escape from her, so he let Raine hold onto him, or maybe it was the other way around… he was the one who was holding onto her...
