The anger on her expression burned like wildfire. Clearly he had struck a nerve he hadn't known existed with something he'd said. She didn't answer any of his questions though before she snapped back to forget it and began to turn and walk away from him. For a brief moment, Sitka considered just letting her walk away and being done with this. But the slap in his face came not from her growled out words or her demeanor. It came from the fact that she was walking away from him without answering his questions. Sitka's smile dropped to a scowl, narrowed eyes pointed at the retreating fae. Who the fuck did she think she was? Asking him to teach her to be brave, then leaving like he was nothing and not giving him a single answer.
"Hey!" he shouted after her, turning on a dime and following after her. Long legs and large paws carried him swiftly up behind her, closing the gap between them in seconds. "Don't you walk away from me! Answer me when I'm talking to you!" Sitka picked up the pace and was quick to cut off her escape with a low, threatening growl. He stood like a wall of wolf in front of her, fixing her with those piercing, aggressive eyes again. She wanted to learn how to be brave so badly? Fine. He'd show her how he'd been forced to be brave in the first place.
"You've got a lot of nerve asking me for help and then ignoring me, girl," he spoke, voice more growl than conversational. "You want to learn how to be brave? Fine. Lesson one: be stupid. Don't think about the consequences of what you have to do. Fuck the rest. Scared to do something? Just do it by any means necessary." He took a step closer to her, almost bumping her with his chest. "Hit me. Claw me. Bite me. Do something, because if you don't, I am going to hurt you." As if to prove his point and provoke some sort of answer or reaction from her, Sitka aimed to swing a large paw up to connect with the side of her head. His intention wasn't to cause serious hard—yet—but she had asked him to teach her how to be brave. He had been forced to be brave when confronted with a life or death situation. She would learn the way he did.
Again, Sitka swung a paw for her head, hoping to just knock her around a bit. The stupid bitch had the spirit in her, but not the confidence or the nerve. Provoking an instinctive reaction would give her that first taste of what bravery and action felt like. "C'mon, fight me! Hurt me! Try to kill me!" he snarled, continuing to advance on her with every swing of his paws, his teeth bared in a growl. "You saw what I did to that wolf. You wanna end up facedown in the river too? No? Then stop me." He snapped his jaws and flattened his ears, preparing for her to attack him and kick off what would undoubtedly be a vicious confrontation if she had it in her. If not, she would always be doomed to be a doormat, someone else's bitch to use and abuse however they wanted and keep her pressed under their heels.
