Seeing that Damon was looking at her grimly from the door of her room, Talia didn't dare to provoke him.
Talia didn't have the faintest clue what caused his current mood (or what that mood was), but she decided to play it safe, and she lowered her head.
"I apologize, Alpha Damon.", she said in a small voice.
'BAM!'
Talia jolted when the door closed loudly, and she inhaled sharply at the realization that Damon was only half a step away from her.
It took him only a second to cross the distance between them.
Damon grabbed her chin with his index finger and thumb and forced her to lift her head and look at him.
"What did you call me?"
He was leaning above her, and his angry words splashed on her face. Talia blinked rapidly, unsure what he was getting at.
Seeing the horror in her eyes, Damon let go of her chin and put his palm on her cheek.
"I told you to call me by my name. Damon. Just Damon. Say it."
