ZINA
'I love you, Zina WolfKnight.'
Zina didn't understand what she was hearing at first. Perhaps it was because she was in Daemon's head, but the words sounded imaginary… distant even.
But they were repeated again and she knew they were true… his words to her were real.
Her eyes flew open and she backed away while a gasp escaped her lips. They were both still naked, but she guessed she must have embraced the primal part of herself for she was hardly faded by the nudity.
"Why?" She asked pathetically, immediately groaning internally as the words left her lips. Of all the things she could say, it was to question why Daemon loved her?
Daemon smiled, then he tugged her to his body until they both fell freely on Zina's bed. It occurred to her that not only had her door been torn apart by Daemon, but her windows were now a shattered mess courtesy of her scream.
