Chapter Nine

Ianthe entered the darkened room, startling as Adrian slammed the door shut behind her. The bolt shooting through the lock reminded her nails driving into a coffin, locking her into a black and suffocating space. She could not yet see Legion as her eyes slowly adjusted to the darkness.

But she could smell him.

A heady mix of Alpha pheromone and palpable rage permeated the air so completely that it saturated every molecule of oxygen that she frantically inhaled. She couldn't fight the visceral reaction that clenched her belly and made her knees weak. She was in the presence of an Alpha who was all animal instinct with no conscious mind to mediate his baser urges.

She heard his heavy breathing before she felt him push up against her side. Legion wasn't yet aggressive, but his body crowded hers. He bent low over her, nose brushing the top of her head as he deeply inhaled. Ianthe held herself completely still with effort. She knew that his predator instinct would take over completely, if she tried to run. He would be compelled to chase her.

"Legion," she whispered, and even that echoed in the thick silence that was broken only by his panting breaths. "It's Ianthe. Can you hear me?"

A thin ray of moonlight shown around the curtains on the window. It streaked across his face, revealing an expression that was entirely feral. Any color in his eyes was eaten up by a pitch black pupil that had dilated to fill nearly the entire iris. His normally expressive lips had twisted into a snarl, spittle dripping from teeth that seemed sharper than they ever had before. She found herself suddenly very aware of the fact that he could snap her in half with a flick of his hand.

Ianthe took an involuntary step back, her instinct to flee in the face of a volatile Alpha impossible to completely overcome.

But any sudden movement, no matter how small, was a mistake. He reacted as if she had struck him, face contorting into something out of a nightmare as he reached for her with a snarl.

Abandoning any hope of soothing him, Ianthe tried to spin away but Legion was simply too fast. Strong hands caught both of her arms and yanked her towards him, snarling mouth gaping as if he intended to eat her alive.

Fever-hot lips traced along the curve of her neck as he pulled her body flush against his, licking and tasting the delicate flesh. She tensed, waiting for the inevitable crunch of bone and answering pain as he bit down, but it didn't come.

His body stilled as his tongue traced indecipherable patterns on her skin. She simultaneously wanted to shove him away and force her body closer. The warring reactions were a constant feature of their time together, even when he was completely out of his mind.

Ianthe risked a glance at his face, not even an ounce of sanity had returned. But his expression had shifted from rage to something more recognizable as he continued to breathe in her scent.
