ERIS PYRE ______________________________Eris wouldn't have recognized the appreciation in Ox's eyes if she had turned to see him admiring her backside. She was innocent yet, and a late bloomer - perhaps, in part, because of her size. It hadn't yet occurred to her to look at a male with anything other than friendship or admiration. She was lucky to have an excellent example of masculine energy in her brother, Lament. When her passions did awaken, it would be incredibly difficult to live up to her expectations. Eris would expect, no doubt, to be wooed like a princess. Anything less would be a waste of her time. Her loving (albeit overprotective) family caused her to believe that she was destined for a fairy tale ending. But time would tell if the heady rush of lust during her first season in heat would change her mind. Hormones often had more to do with things than some might like to admit. Or, of course, being saved from imminent danger by a strapping young thing... twice. "Trouble falling asleep, eh?" She muttered, her mouth around the herbs. "These should help." With her head down in the plants, she couldn't react quickly enough to Oxide's command. Eris stumbled aside, buffeted by his body as he rushed the wild animal that had emerged from the log. She quickly stumbled backwards further, every hair on her body on end. The wolverine snarled, a sound that chilled Eris to the bone. Oxide's teeth found their way around its snub nose, but it thrashed in his grasp and aimed a few strong swipes at his chest. Her mind was absolutely blank - it had been so long since she'd sparred, her knowledge of fighting had decayed almost entirely. With the sun setting, their fight took on an epic quality. Their shadows stretched across the heather as the pair duked it out. Instead of fleeing, Eris stood frozen in terror. |
