Heart Of A Beast

*Rina*

We met Daniel just at the entrance of the main front door.

“Where is Damien,” I asked, almost scared of his answer.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

He struggles off the question like it wasn’t a big deal. “He’s in the red room, his demon is going nuts” Daniel replied fearfully.

Demon? I knew there was no doubt that Damien already killed Delvin, a sob broke out from me despite I told myself no more crying for me today.

“He has killed Delvin hasn’t he?”I managed to ask.

“You mean the guy that was with you? No. He’s at Drake’s workshop, Damien is in the red room hurting himself. He… he… is.. torturing himself and no one could go near him.”Daniel replied.

“What??? Take me there this instance”I race after Daniel not even aware that Helena didn’t come with us, I stopped and turn around to see she was crying, I wanted to go back to console her but knowing the condition Damien might be I followed Daniel, his demon is mad. How could he?….

I paused at the red house, it was a huge modern cottage painted in red, torture room, a shiver went down my spine.

Daniel pulls me back as I reach for the handle of the door “Don’t go too close to him, his demon doesn’t care about anybody and it’s doesn’t have a mate. He could kill you”He warned.

“I’m not scared of him”I replied Daniel stubbornly and went inside, okay I was scared, I could hear a loud growl coming out of one of the rooms, I search around for few minutes, which I had open several doors were dead rogues are, I even entered a room where a rogue head was hanged and his body lying down. I moan as a wave of dizziness wash over me, I vomited on the floor then rest my weight on the handle of a door to another room.

The door open and I saw Damien, no demon, Damien had shifted into his Demon!, I could see the two horns on his head, something like red coal on his body, white wings, and a weapon which I had no name for.

“Damien? Can you hear me please stop”I yelled?

The Demon turns his attention towards me, advancing the weapon as he stalks across the room, his height was terrifying and I knew I was dealing with a monster right now.

“Please stop hurting yourself Demon” I pleaded in a broken whisper, he stops in front of me, I look up at him, those red eyes, it’s took everything in me not to go around yelling, This is still Damien I repeatedly told myself as I reach for Demon, he wouldn’t hurt me.

And he didn’t, I hug his lower body, my arms going around his waist, I hug him and murmur some comforting words, it groans and drops the Damien hugging me closer too. Lust, anger, and red-blooded male. Helena had described him and it was true. He seems to enjoy me hugging him, as he continues to groan before he changes his mind and decided to pounce on me for sex, I pull back knowing how turn-on he was getting. I wouldn’t want to have sex with a demon. Well, he’s still Damien just the monster side I don’t like seeing.

Then right in my present, it’s shifted back and Damien stood in front of me all in his naked glory.

I gasp and quickly turn away, not before seeing his huge erection, my cheeks were red.

“You’d better leave”He snapped.

I didn’t dare turn around, I knew he was still mad at me.

“Will you stop being such a baby! Why would you let that monster out in the first place? Do you have any idea how you scared everybody?”Forgetting I didn’t want to turn, I spun around, attacking him punching him on the chest.

“You deserve to get hurt by me! Helena was crying with worrying! and… and… you made me so scared “I punch him harder, he didn’t budge, then he grips my waist looking at me with concern written on his face.

“I didn’t hurt you did I?” He asked, his gaze wandering down my body.

“Yes. You hurt me here” I pointed towards the area of my heart.

He looked assumed for few seconds, is the surprise I have a heart? Well, every wondering how like him, I open my mouth to tell him just down, the words die down my throat as Damien leans in and kissed me.

*****************

“You aren’t planning to walk back to the mansion like that are you,” I asked, breathlessly after we finally parted from that heated kiss, I could still face my face burning as I tried hard not to look down, knowing he was standing there in his naked glory.

Damien since to be enjoying this, I glare at him then keep my eyes on his chest level.

“No worries, I’m just waiting for Daniel to bring me some clothes plus I don’t want any unwanted female werewolf to see me like this! They’d be knocking on my door” He chuckled.

I spanked his upper arm. “That’s not funny”.

“I never said it was. It is the mating season meaning every mate and an unmated werewolf would be in heat, but unmated werewolves feel it more, the desire to get intimate with their mate, it is also the season werewolf give birth. It’s also painful too” Damien explained watching the expression on my face.

“So…. are you going to feel it too”I asked, softly looking into his blue eyes directly.

“Of course not” Damien replied and when Daniel open the door of the room to give Damien his clothes, I quickly step out I feel like he isn’t telling me the whole truth about this mating and heat stuff, I want to know everything that there is to mating and heat.

“Helena! Please you’ve got to help me”I burst into her room only to see she was packing.

“Are you going somewhere? Please don’t go” I wanted to cry, who’s going to give me advice when things go wrong between Damien and me?.

“Oh dear, I’m not going away not by choice though, but it’s the mating season I have to be close to Damien’s father before the heat gets to me” She flushed a little and went ahead to pack her stuff.”Besides you and Damien are driving me crazy. Everything is going to be fine okay? just don’t worry or stress about it and remember what I told you” She added.

“I’m going to miss you” I hugged her from behind.

She quickly untangles herself from me, bit her lips, I stare at her stunned cause I normally did that too when I’m with Damien and I don’t want to go into details.

“Sorry, I’m in heat. Which is why I need to get out of here as soon as possible” Helena giggled seeing my stunned expression.

“Alright does Damien feel the heat too?”I asked the question that has been bugging in my mind ever since Damien told me he doesn’t feel the heat.
