HUNT THE DARKNESS by Alexandra Ivy Short Story Part 5


HUNT THE DARKNESS
Guardians of Eternity, #11
Publication Date: June 3, 2014
Publisher:  Zebra
Genre:  Paranormal
ISBN-13:978-1-4201-2515-3

The vampire, Roke, is raw, sensual, always in control. Yet somehow he's allowed the unthinkable to happen: a nymph-like witch named Sally has used her magic to trick Roke into mating with her. The pair will remain bound for eternity unless Sally breaks the spell. The trouble is, she has no idea how. . .

Mating with Roke was an accident; at least that's what Sally keeps telling herself. She's on the hunt for her demon father, whose identity holds the key to releasing the spell. The search won't be easy with Roke shadowing Sally's every move. As they mate with a ferocity that leaves them both aching for more, Sally isn't sure if her world is more dangerous without Roke—or with him. . .


PART 5 - Extra Guardian of Eternity
By Alexandra Ivy

Fia kept her spine rigid and her chin angled to a militant angle even as her heart clenched with regret.  She’d expected his anger, even his disgust, but that didn’t ease the pain at the sight of his cold eyes and the beautiful male face that looked as if it’d been carved out of granite.   
“Hello, Magnus.”  Her voice was thankfully steady.  Good.  This was difficult enough without Magnus knowing her emotions were a hot, tangled mess.  “Are you going to stand there glaring at me or are you going to let me out?”
He stepped forward, his hands grasping the iron bars as he glared down at her.  “Styx takes a very dim view of trespassers, little sprite,” he drawled.  “It could be years before he decides you’ve been suitably punished.”
She narrowed her eyes the precise shade of garnets.  “If that’s a joke it’s not funny.”
He folded his arms over his broad chest.  “You know me well enough to know that I never joke.”
Well, that was true enough.  Magnus was many things.  Strong, loyal, and indecently sexy, but could never be called light-hearted.  Hell, just earning a smile from him felt like an epic victory.
“I wasn’t trespassing. I was only trying to return something that belongs to you,” she said.
He curled back his lips to reveal his large fangs, his icy power wrapping around her...not to hurt, but in a blatant warning.
“You’re only making it worse, Fia,” he growled.  “Now you’re not only an intruder, but you’re a thief.  You might never get out of this cell.”
Despite her grim determination to maintain her composure, Fia found herself reaching for the gold chain that was looped around her neck, giving it a tug to pull out the small amulet that had been tucked beneath her stretchy top.  With one jerk, she broke the chain, allowing the tiny charm to fall into her palm.
Her quick temper had always been her downfall.
“You know what...screw you.”  She threw the amulet through the bars, directly into the pale, arrogant face.  She wrapped her arms protectively around her waist, as if that could halt the pain of rejection that was thundering through her.  Damn him.  He was supposed to...what?  Offer her instant forgiveness?  To know that she would never deliberately hurt him?  Okay, it was unfair, but that was exactly what she wanted.   “Take this and go.”
