Self Healing Ability

Ember found the tendrils of darkness leaving his body and starting to surround her. She didn't know what was going to happen, but all of a sudden, she found herself immobile as those dark tendrils held her body in place. Her hands were pinned to the bed as those tendrils gripped her wrists.

She tried to free her wrists but failed. Now she realized how strong she herself must be; the absolute darkness her mate possessed was overpowering.

"Draven?" she mumbled, uncertainty and a little panic in her voice.

In response, Draven leaned his face closer to hers, his dark eyes losing any gentleness. His nose brushed against hers, seemingly ravishing her ragged breathing. The beast wished to dive into her scent as he closed his eyes.

Ember tried to calm herself and let her body relax, closing her eyes. She could smell his true scent, strongest when his beast form was prominent— Green forest and peppermint.
