Ocean blue eyes dance with happiness as Keahi shows off the gift Ruga has just given her. His sly smile and simple word when she questions how she looks has a cheerful laugh falling past her red lips while a playfully wink is tossed to the taller man. She laughs softly as she walks to him, the sound falling away as she sits back to wrap her arms around him. Desire flashes in her eyes as she enjoys the smile that curls his lips up and his own, strong foreleg wraps around her. It sends her heart aflutter as Ruga gives her brief, tight squeeze and her next words pull a low, rumbling chuckle from him which makes the tropical woman smile giddily. With a promise of more fun to come later, the pair pull apart and the red woman asks for a lesson with her new weapon.

Keahi steps back, listening to Ruga and flashing him a grin when he speaks of not using weapons. Truthfully, it does not surprise her that the tall blacksmith has not used them, his voiced distaste for what the weapons he made were used for had led her to believe that he might not. However, the fact that he is willing to spar with her to allow the tropical woman to test out her dagger means a lot to her. Ruga motions for her to draw her new weapon and Keahi reaches down, easily sliding the blade from its hiding place. The sapphires catch the sunlight and flash for a brief moment as she brings her head back level with her spin. He steps close to her and blue eyes look up at him as he explains about the leather grip, an affectionate smile curling her lips.

Ruga sits back, slightly rotating the dagger in her mouth so that the sharp edge was facing him. Keahi listens to him explanation, blue eyes catching his seafoam gaze and giving him a wink. His paw brushes her cheek and trails along her jaw, leaving sparks of pleasure in its wake. Oh, he is a tease. A mischievous smirk appears around the hilt and then Ruga is retreating to grab a spear. The tropical woman takes a step back, giving her weapon a couple strong swings before the tall blacksmith comes back. He swings his spear a few times before nodding for her to make the first move. Ocean blues flash with mirth as she sets her defenses, eyes locking with his gaze. Keahi knows that, no matter who wins this spar, both of them will be winners tonight.

Red legs push off, and Keahi ducks under a swing of the long spear, racing toward the tall Ruga. The dagger is clutched tightly between her teeth and, as the spear swings back toward her, the tropical woman twists, allowing the dagger to deflect the weapon. Her body is liquid, flowing from one motion to the next, and she is racing toward him in the span of a few seconds. Blue eyes brighten as she sees an opening, paws adjusting to place her in the zone when the sky and ground suddenly switch places. Ruga uses the spear to sweep her legs out from the red wolf and sends her crashing to the ground. For a moment she lays there, dazed and confused as to what just happened when the tall blacksmith comes to stand over her.

The concern in his eyes has Keahi offering him an amused smile when the realization hits her that the dagger is still clutched tightly between her teeth. Rolling onto her stomach, the red woman slides the dagger back into its special scabbard and allows the laugh that had been caught behind the hilt to bubble out. Ruga helps her to stand and dust off and Keahi concedes defeat with the words, “Alright, alright. You win this round Ruga. What do you say we move this game inside?” A wink is given as she brushes against his side and the tropical wolf saunters toward Ruga’s den.
