Stay Away

Ember saw Morpheus stirring in bed, looking around as if trying to make sense of his current situation.

"Are you awake?" she asked softly as she approached him.

Still dizzy, Morpheus turned his gaze to her, his eyes glowing gold as he watched his mate. Her enticing scent filled his senses, awakening his most primal beast instincts.

"Your hair is gold now," she said with a smile, reaching out to touch his hair, but—

"Ahh… Morph…"

Her hand was grabbed, and with a wild tug, she was pulled beneath him on the bed. Her delicate body was pinned under his, utterly unable to move against his overwhelming strength. Unlike his usual playful nature, he now appeared more feral, as if he had lost all reason. His breathing was heavy, his predatory gaze fixed on her as if he couldn't wait to devour her. His hands gripped her wrists so tightly that it felt as though they could crush them.
