Take the Risk
No,” Daniel whisper with what courage she had. This was too much, all too much. She wasn't getting married and turned to a sphinx all on the same day.
“Fine.” He said turning away from her. Daniel lifted her head.
“What?” She asked shocked that he didn't put up a fight.
“Indra made us mates. The pull will bring you to me, in time.” The large sphinx rolled his shoulders. “I am still young myself, and in no rush to wed.” He brought a claw to his chest and gave her an elegant bow. “You will come to me.” He raised his blue eyes to hers. They gleamed with arrogance and pride.
“You better act fast. I am a popular man.” With a smirked he turned and walked away. Leaving Daniel shocked. Not even in high school did she meet such an arrogant jerk!
“Playing hard to get.” Annie nudge her side. Giving her a talon's up. “Keeps the magic of romance alive.” Daniel groaned and face palmed, well, faced palmed her...talon. Things were getting weirder by the second.
“I should have chosen option one.” Daniel moaned into her talon.
“That's what they all say.” The old sphinx laughed with a bellow. Making Daniel wonder if being a sphinx was the least of her worries?
