Robin
The visage of the dark angel before me was more demonic than every nightmare Iâd ever had combined, yet somehow I wasnât afraid. I was awestruck.
He had four wings, two on each side, covered in snow-white feathers and beady red eyes that drilled right through me.
I found myself so enamored by each one that I couldnât move. Itâs not that they disgusted me, it was the opposite. I was frozen where I stood, initially shocked.
He was beautiful, terrifyingly so.
Something not far off the mark from inadequacy swept through me, robbing all the confidence out of my sails.
How could something as awe-inspiring and powerful as this male want me? I was a human. There was a reason why so many people believed that humans and supernaturals couldnât become mates. They could fuck, but they couldnât seal the mating bond. And that was because there was no record of it ever happening.
And now it all made sense.
He was a god, and I was nothing.
I couldnât move. It was like his eyes were a thousand little needles, pinning me down. I was so lost in their gaze that I barely registered the fact that he was talking to me. I managed to jerk my attention from the sea of feathers and eyes, only for his horns to snag my focus.
He had fucking horns!
They were black, and just thick enough to wrap my fingers around so their tips would meet on the other side. They sprouted from his temples and curved backwards, following the flow of his slicked-back hair.
He was a shock to the senses, nightmarish and mouthwatering all at once. Each detail of his celestial form gripped me by the fucking throat and made it impossible to breathe.
What was he trying to tell me? By the time Iâd shaken myself from my awestruck haze, he was dragging me out of his suite and into his office by my arm.
His rage was so palpable that I could taste it in my mouth, as bitter as ash.
âIâm s-sorry, what?â
He said nothing as he wrenched me into the next room.
I didnât expect us to have company. There was a man I recognized from maintenance, a vampire from the night shift, inside the floor-to-ceiling cage in the corner of the room. He was installing something, by the looks of things. He scrambled up when he saw Callum approach. Hastily picking up his tool box, he refused to look his superior in any of his eyes, and instead kept his line of sight glued to his feet. âChainâs been installed, sir.â
Chain?
Callum dismissed the vampire, and he left, leaving us alone.
All the air left my lungs when I registered the huge coil of chain lying on the floor inside the cage. One end was secured around one of the bars, and on the other end of it was a large metal cuff. No, not a cuff.
A collar.
I saw where this was going. And maybe the potion was starting to work, because I felt conflicted. Which was crazy. I should have been freaking out, and I was.
