Asterion paused, staring down at the female curiously, the haze of blood lust clinging just barely to his mind. The flush of her blood roaring in her veins incited his terrible hunger, but it was dulled by another warm, seductive scent mingled with it and the startling sight of her submission, her head bowed to him.
Unlike other prey that had tried to evade him or attack him, her eyes were squeezed so tightly shut that her nose wrinkled up from the effort. Where she had desperately fled from the flesh-eating satyrs who had infested his labyrinth in recent centuries, there was a sense of surrender in her submission that gave him pause.
More than that, her single word startled him as she whispered a soft plea.
Daddy? He was oddly intrigued and⦠charmed by the complete submission held within that one word, yielding everything up to his whim and control. It was perplexing too that it should strike a chord within him. It made him want to dominate and consume in an entirely different fashion than his cursed nature.
He huffed and snorted, blasting back wisps of her hair from her face. He had the advantage over her that he could see her as clearly as if it were day. She couldnât hide anything, not even the tiny grimace of her full lips pressing together, in the dark. Asterion cautiously stepped back a pace, his nostrils flaring as he drew her scent deep into his olfactory glands. Sweet feminine flesh, ripe with health. Her scent was arousing, flooding his cock with blood so that it stiffened uncomfortably beneath the swath of material around his hips.
Curious.
One of his broad ears flicked in consideration.
Was this a trick or some trap designed by men to capture him. Surely the sweetness that enticed him was nothing more than a clever potion rubbed into her flesh to bait him.
A blasting gust of air left him. That had to be what it was.
His ears pricked toward the corridor ahead of him, listening for any other signs of human life as he scented the air. Outside of his unnatural hunger, he did not especially enjoy killing humans, but he would have no compunction over killing one invading his labyrinth to seek his death. He had dealt with would-be Theseus-enamored âheroesâ often enough over the ages. The isolation of his labyrinth had relieved him of that particular burden, for a time. If they had returned as well, he would deal with them with ruthless efficiency. There was a time where he had once enjoyed the challenge of facing a warrior, their taste being all the more succulent for the effort, but that time had long since passed even before the labyrinth pulled away from the mortal world. Now, he was merely tired.
His eyes fell again on the female in front of him. He should cease hesitating and kill her. He could promise her a quick death at the very least before he dealt with her accomplices. Still, he had to admire the courage it took for a female to go along with such plans.
