Recap:
"You kno- you know nothing" He whispered and I saw tears glaze over his face, his voice breaking near the end. I swallowed, looking up at him from my crouched position. He walked over to the door pausing just before walking out
"I'm sorry" and he closed the door.
And I cried. I cried for my mate, for myself but mostly my dad. I didn't mean anything I said about mum. I just got so upset with him and I couldn't stop myself. The words flew out in the heat of the moment. I continued to sob on the ground, as I heard the door opening again.
"Kat" I looked up at Brody and once he saw my face, he rushed to my side and held me as I cried until sleep overtook me.

Chapter 17:
Katerina's POV:
Sleep in this household seemed to be a privilege not a right of passage as I was woken with the sounds of screams. I shot out of Brody's arms looking around for the danger. I must of got what, 3 seconds of sleep. I could still feel the wetness on my cheeks from my crying and my eyes were sore, most likely rimmed red. I glanced at Brody alarmed as I heard another scream and what sounded like a grunt. I stood up slowing approaching the door before Brody pulled me back harshly.
"It's Ryder isn't it?" I asked half-heartedly my body and mind physically and emotionally weak.
"It's not safe for you to go out there...not when he's like this" Brody replied still holding onto my arm.
"If you think he's going to hurt me he -" I was suddenly cut off as the door was ripped open and what stood in front of me had me gasping in shock.
Blood was dripping down his arms, most of it his. His knuckle looked like they single-handedly burrowed through a reinforced wall or two. His breathing was fierce and heavy, him hunched over slightly.
"Let go of my mate" he said it quietly. And that scared me more then him yelling. I gulped and nodded at Brody without taking my eyes of Ryder letting him know it's okay. Brody slowly let go and took a step away.
Ryder let out a harsh breath before skimming my body, narrowing in in my cheek.
The entire pack wasn't prepared for the violent growl that erupted from him. It was dark, dangerous and if I wasn't so scared of him right now, I would be turned on. His features changed, becoming more animal like, his nails growing into claws and his canines threatening to expose themselves.
Suddenly footsteps were charging up the stairs and I wasn't prepared for Ryder to switch right at that moment, becoming an animal on a war path still in his human form. He slashed a guard across the face before shoving the other away from the doorway and into a wall.
"Ryder!" I screamed but this time instead of him focussing on my voice it seemed to enrage him even more. I took a step towards him before Brody harshly pulled me back
"Are you crazy!!!?" He yelled. I shoved his arm off me using all my strength before charging towards my vicious mate.
"Ryder stop!" He continued on with his destruction and I'll admit I flinched.
Come on. Ruby pushed. With an unknown confidence, I walked forward, swinging myself in front of my mate and placed my hands on his chest stopping him from moving. The tingles erupted once again and he froze for a second before glaring down at me
"Move mate" his wolf still harboured all control from what I could see in his obsidian eyes.
And to make matters worse, more men
charged up the stairs, having been back-up and Ryder was back to his war path.
Do it. I gulped before summoning my courage and grabbing his face forcing his lips down into mine.
It was like nothing ive ever experienced. My whole world shifted and the Sparks were electric between us. He froze at the contact and when I went to pull away having done the job I intended, he growled low in his throat, grunting out
"No"
Before slamming his lips back onto mine, bandaging his arms around my waist and lifted me slightly putting us at a more comfortable height difference. I sighed into his mouth before tilting my head trying to expand in these feeling ms rocketing through me. I felt alive, buzzed and something completely indescribable. He bit my bottom lip, tugging at it having fallen victim to the lust just like I had. I ran my fingers through his hair, tugging slightly in response to his constant lip tugging. He groaned low and a fire spread out through my belly. Our lips kept joining in perfect sync. I needed air and I cursed myself for having to pull away. I drew away slightly and he leant forward with me, not wanting to stop just yet. He pecked me once, twice before slowing pulling back and resting his forehead on mine.
"Mine" he whispered
"Yours" I replied. He growled in appreciation before taking my face and tilting it to the side, his eyes narrowing.
"Who hit you?" He gritted out. Tears threatened to fall out and I looked back at him with glassy eyes.
His whole demeanour crumbled looking at my distraught face. He cradled my face, rubbing the side of his face on mine, nudging me.
"Who hurt you darling?" My breath stuttered out of me as I closed my eyes before re-opening them, the tears now falling freely at the memory of my dad.
Ryder was having none of that. He brought me closer to him, kissing each and every tear away.
"No, no, no ...no crying ok. Please" I gulped at his words as he wrapped me back into his embrace. I breathed in his scent greedily, my crying turning into sobs.
"My father"
