Mate?

Shina's breath caught in her throat, his voice was so warm, how could a voice be considered warm. She looked at him for a moment and then at her phone in his hand and a brow raised. "Um..I mean..Hey...that's mine" She said pointing at the phone he had in his hand. She reached out like she was going to take it from him and he jerked his hand back and took a small step backwards his face looked unsure and confused, but also...his eyes seemed mesmerized, or maybe amazed would be a better term.

Shina blinked and tilted her head to the side sizing up the huge man infront of her. "Can I, get my phone back?" She looked him over again and realized his shirt was ripped in some places and he was dirty and disheveled. Realization hit her and she looked at the wrecked car behind him. "You...were in the accident?" She asked slightly confused as to how he was standing infront of her like everything was fine. "I was trying to call for help for you and the other car." She said reaching out again. 

"I'm okay, the other car is empty. I think they left before I was able to get out of my vehicle." He spoke with finality like what he said was the end of the discussion. "Mmm okay, but shouldn't we still call for help?" She asked her eyes widened in confusion at his nonintrest in the situation. Vix looked over his shoulder at the mangled wreckage behind him and then back at the human. "I don't think it's needed." He replied and then held the phone out to her. She looked a bit taken aback but reached out to take her phone and her fingers brushed the back of his hand. Shina jerked away in surprise, what felt like an electric current had slid up her fingers and into her arm. Like the worst friction shock she had ever experienced, but the man infront of her leaned forward his eyes lit up and almost seemed to flash silver. 

Shina heard a growl rumble from the man and she looked at him again. "I...should go back to my studio if you don't need help." She said taking a shakey step backwards, and then another and another before she turned around to rush back. But she felt a rush of air and he was standing infront of her again. She looked behind her and then back to her front confusion etched on her pale charcoal stained face. 

The man stepped closer to her, a breath away now she could feel the heat coming off his body in waves and it made a shiver run down her spine. "Your name?" The man before her seemed to growl the question out between his teeth like he was fighting control. Shina opened her mouth and closed it a few times before clearing her throat. "Shina is how I'm called." She said softly feeling a bit smothered by the heat from his body and the size of him. Even though Shina was tall for a girl, she was six foot...he seemed to be much taller than her and his muscles were huge but not in an unhealthy way. His eyes now that he was closer were a silvery green color that swirled and every now and then flashed a bright molten silver.

"What...mm, what's your name?" She asked stumbling over her words a bit as she became flustered. 

The man before her tilted his head to the side "Shhhina" He repeated her name his voice rolled it out like he was savoring the taste. "I'm Vix Ryker." He said and his hand reached out to her, Shina thought about stepping back she even tried to will herself to do it but her body didn't listen. His hand came up to cup her cheek and she leaned into it even when that weird zing shot through her check bone and down her neck.

"Mmm" Her voice betrayed her humming out in content as this stranger touched her cheek. "Mate..." Vix growled out "You are mine, my Shina" He said his voice wrapping around her in that warm way that it had been doing from the start. But his words snapped her out of it. "Mate? What...we just met I'm not your's, I don't belong to anyone." She said and pulled away moving around the strange guy and rushing the rest of the way to her studio. 

Shina shut the door hard and pulled the lock before colapsing against it breathing hard in confusion and shock. Who was that guy and what did he mean by calling her mine. She was so tired and hungry before all of that happened. She sighed and pushed off the door, heading for the downstairs bathroom that was set up with a shower. She washed her body clean watching as the charcoal she had gotten on herself swirled down the shower drain.  What had she gotten herself into she thought as she toweled off and then pulled on an oversize shirt she had bought to sleep in. Once she was done Shina walked out of the bathroom and to the door across the hall that opened into a small bedroom. 

She huffed as she collapsed onto the soft bed and wrapped herself in the blankets. "That guy must have been crazy...or maybe he really was hurt from the crash." She snuggled into her blankets tighter and drifted off to sleep. The image of Vix still fresh in her mind and that amazing electrical zing that had ran through her cheekbone and neck as he touched her was like a buzzing under her skin.
