Orange & Black

Sauntering along the perimeter of the battle, Sephiran slithered around much like a viper laying in wait- not looking for an opportunity to join, but keeping close if he had to. With every move Caedes made, Sephiran attentively traced his movements- taking note of every strike and dodge, as his cousin maneuvered his large body around the feline to avoid those massive fangs and guillotine claws. Once or twice, he was sure the tiger would land a blow. Thoughts of Caedes flayed open like prey, wallowing in a growing pile of blood flashing across his mind. But each time, the male leaped just out of reach- saving that already scared pelt of his from receiving more.

Wearing the beast down, it had become clumsy and exhausted- stumbling back and forth on unsteady paws, gasping between breaths. Blood trickled in an even flow from its wounds, splattering against the rocky terrain, seeping through into the cracks between stones until it found the sand beneath. Sephirans jaws were watering now- his tongue writing back and forth against his teeth, as compulsion ate away at the corners of his mind. He wanted a taste.
