Killer in the Mirror

Ely didn’t miss the mischievous flicker tone in his voice when he responded to her the first time. In fact, she mentally made note of it. Something for later. You never know when you might need to know whom has some lust for you later down the road. She didn’t feel uneasy as he walked beside her. In fact if felt natural, like they’d done it a thousand times before.

”Rhazien, don’t we all crave bloodshed around here?” she practically purred at him before shooting him an almost knowing glance. ”But you’re correct on both things, I want the bloodshed and the pelt to lay on, and more” her voice intentionally dropped to a flirtatious tone as she added that last bit. Knowing exactly what she was insinuating and where his mind may wander.

She didn’t mind that he let her be in the lead, she was usually the one tagging along. It made her feel… bold. Especially to have someone so experienced as him letting her take control. Focusing on the hunt she flagged him with her tail as the fresh scent hit her nose.

She had been right to assume a new predator would come to claim the free territory. Unfortunately for it, the lands would soon be without a controller once again at her paws.

Without a word she announced the chase with a look over her shoulder to Rhazien and flick of her ear before she shot after the scent. She was getting that pelt and she was making him see her today. Two birds one stone. Game on. She grinned, as she pushed everything from her head and focused on the tigers scent.

It didn’t take long at all for her to track it down, there it laid completely nonchalant. But she didn’t waste time, she began to prowl toward its head, her tail flicking a silent direction for Rhazien to flank to its other side. To cage it between them.

She didn’t wait to see if he listened to her. She had faith he would. And so she surged forward, aiming to distract it from her partner. She let out a snarl as she snapped her jaws at it. Antagonizing it enough to stand up and face her. She didn’t cower as it let out a roar of its own. She braced to dodge as it swung a clawed paw for her.
