It's Cold And It's Broken

In truth, Alastor was grateful for the spar. When he was fighting, he didn't need to worry himself over saying the right or wrong thing. He didn't need to fret over the awkward tension that had built between him and Relm since the day he'd killed her father and mounted her. He could just let himself loose, focus on the fight itself, on the teeth and claws of his opponent and his own teeth and claws against them. Fighting was simple, living was harder. It was made even simpler when Relm declined setting any rules or limits. Nothing was off the table, which gave Alastor an insight into what the girl wanted. She wanted a knock down, drag out spar. The corners of his lips twitched in a little smile. "Good." Rules were boring anyway.

Relm kicked off their fight, and her brazen boldness as she charged straight for him made the dire brute actually smile. He ran to intercept her, though she had a significant wind up on him, aiming to slam his chest back into hers. He had almost a half foot on her and a good bit of muscle and weight, so a head on collision wasn't something he was worried about. She lunged for his neck and shoulder, and Alastor used the opening to go for hers in turn, craning his neck and using his height to bear down on her with sharp fangs going for where her neck and left shoulder met while he threw his body toward hers. He felt Relm's teeth bite into his scruff, drawing a snarl from the brute to her stinging bite. She wasn't holding back, so neither was he. He sought to grab hold of Relm and push into her, hoping to be able to overpower her despite her fangs slipping deeper into his skin as a side effect. She would draw first blood, but the pain only riled the masochistic brute up more. Perhaps she knew about Alastor's odd little king—or perhaps she didn't.
