Her little game was interrupted by the wolf's words. She paused, flicking an ear and half an eye in his direction. She was half tempted to correct him again, but actually he was telling her exactly what she wanted to know. Very well - the fish had given her a fine little game, but she was hungry and she would eat it now. Quick as a snake she snapped her teeth into what she could only consider the neck - where the slits of gills were already there. The single bite nearly took off the head but the tail still flopped in reflex for a few seconds. The kitten faded out of her system, and she returned once more to the regal, sphinx-like aura as she laid down with her waiting meal in her outstretched paws. Perfect.
On a whim, she glanced up at the black wolf. "Will you join me, Oddity?" she asked. Of course he had a hundred reasons to say no, but she hoped he would see the question for what it was - a challenge. Would he be brave enough to come place himself before a strange predator of untold power. Would he dine with a dangerous stranger? She flicked a long, black tipped tail, and fixed him with her grey-green gaze. Come along now, odd one, she thought to herself. However annoying it might have been at first, he had aided her, and in return, he was getting the chance to have luncheon with the queen.
