Chapter Nine
Hades nearly trembled with fear and that never happened. Not in his entire existence had anything caused him to be afraid, but the thought of Mia stepping into his realm without him most certainly did. Perhaps bringing her here was a bad idea. Yet, he didn’t want to send her home. Not yet at least. He was certain he would grow tired of her by the end of their agreed term.
“There are things out there, Mia, that you have no idea about. You are innocent and should not be subjected to them.” His gaze grew heavy. “As for your punishment. I wouldn’t hesitate to toss you over my knee for a good old-fashioned spanking.” The thought sent all his blood straight to his dick. The blush across her cheeks didn’t help either.
“I’ve seen evil things.” She chewed her lip. “When I was cursed, it took me awhile to learn how to leave my apartment. One time I encountered something vile that frightened me so bad I ran back home. It wanted to harm me and thank god my apartment proved to be my sanctuary.”
Every muscle in his body went rigid, and his temper reached a point that frightened even him. “What do you mean it meant you harm?” Somehow, he managed to at least keep his voice calm.
“It chased me and… I don’t know but somehow it showed me visions of what it wanted to do to me.” She rubbed her arms and Hades came unglued.
“What did this creature look like?” he demanded.
“A black shadow.”
He recognized immediately what creature she described. It was known as a shadow demon and they were reputed for their nasty appetite. They could suck the life out of anything but only after they tortured the being to near madness. Mia now wore Hades’ mark. A claim that she belonged to him and it was a brand that would be recognized by all of his minions. It was a claim he did not intend to remove even after he sent her home. It was the least she deserved. Some peace of mind that she would never again have to worry about creatures from the Underworld. What he would do is make sure the demon that dared frighten Mia was located. Hades would enjoy a little torture himself.
“Mia, you will not need worry about shadow demons or any others for that matter. Not while you wear my mark.” His gaze flicked to her neck and he had the sudden desire to mark her there as well. Taste her skin as he sank his fangs into her throat and drank her essence. His cock responded to the vision in his head as did his fangs. Mia stared at him.
“Do you really use those things?” She was busy chewing her lip again.
“I do. Did you think they were for decoration?”
“You seriously drink blood? I guess that makes sense. I understand the guardians also drink blood and have been feeding off us without our knowledge forever. The thought that someone has bitten me, and I didn’t even know it is a bit disturbing.
