Hell's Bells

She had hardly relaxed her jaw when a black form approached from her right, and mismatched eyes swept over her form as if sizing her up. She could almost feel her heart lurch and skip a beat, fear wrenching through her being as a fleeting vision of a larger black brute brushed across her mind, a dark sinister laughter ringing in her ears. Instinctively she took a step back, ears flattening and tail tucking between her legs. Had he found her, had she not run fast enough?
An Aching moment passed before Persephone drew in a breath, taking the time to finally give the male before her a once over. He was not as large as Hades had been, nor were his eyes anything like the black pits she had grown so accustomed to. She sat, almost entranced by the alternating colors of the male's eyes. Never before had she seen such an anomaly. She relaxed as his voice brushed across her ears, soft and reassuring, yet regal and commanding. A Beta, it had been two years since she had heard such a term spoken "Cormalin..." She let his name hang in the air as if waiting for him to disappear, a figment of her mad imagination.
When he stood steady, not wavering into nothingness, she allowed herself to relax, extending her neck slightly towards him in greeting "I am Persephone." She paused and looked around before giving a shaky sigh and glancing over her shoulder "and I am lost." She added briskly, he voice soft and shaky.
