Why Do You Run Away From Me?

ZINA

"Because I intend to claim you, Zina. As mine, my mate, my wife, my Luna, my all."

….

….?

Zina had never experienced a volcanic explosion before. She had heard of it alright, and the description fit right with the motions her heart was going through at that moment.

Would she survive this? Did she want to survive this?

Instinctively, like she was running away from the big bad wolf, she tried to step away from Daemon and his words, but he only gripped her chin harder, not giving her any chance to escape.

Her heart thudded in her ears, the sound causing her to pant hard as all she could see was dark eyes that swallowed her world whole, and those eyes held promises enough to wreck her.

Surely, he was joking?

Surely, he could not be serious?
