He had barely closed the door and locked it when a sound from behind him made his hair stand on end.
It started low, little more than a growl, and escalated swiftly into a shrill, bloodcurdling shriek the likes of which he had never heard. He was certain of one thing: that sound belonged on a battlefield, not in his haven.
His movements were purely reactionary as he turned and flung himself through the air in a single motion. His intended target was the tiny, frail-seeming creature that was creating that sound. At the moment, with the Beast so close to freeing itself, the source of the noise did not seem harmless in the slightest. In fact, it had become the biggest threat in the immediate area, and he was certain this was Frenzy, that the careful control of the small creature had finally cracked.
The shriek cut off as his body impacted the immensely smaller form as he tackled it from behind, his momentum driving them both to the floor. His arms clamped down around the creature as it fought against him, but it’s strength was not enough to get free. The haze of infuriated red welled up and the creature was lost to itself as he realized it had not been lost to the Beast before.
Dawn came swiftly on the heels of this fury, and saved them both from regret.
