care.
    “Oh come on, we’re going to have a little fun,” a masculine voice said and Aeon didn’t know why, but he was absolutely certain that its owner was the cause of her distress.
    When he caught sight of her again, she was pinned against the rock wall of the room, a big, beefy guy leaning over her, grinning a lecherous smile. Aeon’s eyes narrowed. She was obviously uncomfortable and when she made to make an escape, ducking under the guy’s arm, he grabbed her and shoved her back against the wall.
    That was enough. That was all Aeon could take.
    He rushed to the guy and his dragon practically roared within him, bringing a growl to Aeon’s lips. With one smooth, effortless jerk, he’d grabbed the man by the collar, turned him around and grabbed him by the neck. Aeon took one step and walked the man against the wall and with his clothes getting stuck on the stone and mortar slightly, Aeon lifted him up by the neck.
    She watched with an equal mix of horror and awe in her eyes. Unfortunately Aeon couldn’t dedicate all of his attention on her yet.
    “I think you owe the lady an apology,” Aeon pressed out between gritted teeth, his fingers coiling against the man’s flesh, crushing his windpipe slowly.
    He was grabbing at Aeon’s arm with both hands, but there wasn’t any strength to it. Not only had Aeon caught the guy unaware but the shock of being shoved up like a ragdoll was enough to make any man tongue-tied. Well, that, and there was the small problem of running out of air, too.
    “Um, I don’t think he can speak,” she offered, Aeon’s eyes flitting to her, still narrowed slightly.
    He considered it for a second and then his expression cleared.
    “Right,” he said, almost sheepishly, as he let go of the guy and he crumpled to a heap at Aeon’s feet.
    He was coughing and sputtering, clutching his neck. Two security guards had rushed over, but kept a respectful distance when they recognized who it was causing the disturbance. A couple of people were muttering among themselves, their voices shocked and hushed, but Aeon paid them no heed. No, he had something much more interesting to look at.
    She was a vision, she really was. Plump lips, even plumper hips, soft curves and the face of a devilish angel, he could have kept staring at her forever. And it wouldn’t have been enough time, which was saying something, coming from a time dragon.
    “Jesus fuck, man, what’s wrong with you!?” the guy spluttered, looking up at Aeon while still clutching his neck protectively.
    Aeon turned his attention to him, bristling at the interruption. She’d been looking at him with those big doe eyes of hers and he was just about to ask her name and here this guy was, getting in his damnable way.
    “I said, you need to apologize to the lady. Do it.”
    His last words did not allow for any disagreement or argument. The man hiked himself up, Maison Dragon’s security stepping closer immediately.
    “Sorry, or whatever,” he huffed.
    Aeon snarled and he could swear that despite doing his best, a little bit of smoke wafted out of his nostrils, curling in wisps on either side of his head.
    “I mean, I’m sorry, okay? I didn’t mean any harm,” the guy corrected himself.
    “Does that satisfy you?” Aeon asked, looking at the woman.
    She looked entirely uncomfortable and like she would have rather been anywhere else other than in the middle of the stupid conflict. He couldn’t blame her. The drunken club bum was getting on his nerves too.
    “Sure,” she said with a faint nod. “Apology accepted.”
    “Excellent,” Aeon noted, offering her a small smile. “Get him out of here. He’s banned for life.”
    “Sir,” one of the security guards nodded, moving to grab the pest by one arm while the other guard took hold of his remaining arm.
    In a shower of protests and shouts, the trio made their way away from Aeon and his pretty little target and the crowd slowly dispersed, the action concluded. But she was
