" The terror of being what he was. He knew. Did he need her to meet him in that darkness? Was he scared she'd break? Or did he want to crush her? She fought with all she was to meet him there. She gripped his neck tight as the insanity tore out of him, angry, furious roars. And as terrifying as it was, she couldn’t deny the heady feeling coursing through her. To be the cause of something this powerful and dangerous filled her with immeasurable worth. "
