Jurian kept his eyes closed as the apartment door unlocked, he didn’t need his eyes to know it was her.
First the click of keys, then the soft sigh of a woman who thought she’d successfully stolen another night for herself. But then she stepped inside and the air shifted.
The unmistakable stench of that mortal from the nightclub. Cheap cologne and fleeting warmth.
His jaw tightened. He did not open his eyes yet
For five hundred years, he had possessed the agonizing patience to let her wander the world alone. Three hours waiting in her living room was nothing.
Then she stepped fully inside, and the heavy weight of his presence hit her.
His eyes opened. She stood frozen by the door. Still in the dress from the club, her heels dangling from her fingers. Her eyes locked onto his.
With a pull of his mind, Jurian plucked at the invisible tether between them. The sire bond. That two-thousand-year-old anchor forged in the ashes of Rome. He watched her chest hitch. The leash tighten.
Did you enjoy your night, pet? His voice was a low hum that seemed to shrink the air around them.
What are you doing here, Jurian? Her voice was sharp, but he could hear the tremble in her cadence. She was furious, and she was trapped.
He finally rose. Approached until he stood before her. Inhaled deeply. The mortal's scent on her skin an irritant. A bug to be squashed later.
I’ve let you play in the mud for five centuries. He whispered. But do not confuse a long leash with a broken one.
