So you're what all the fuss is about

The press and push of body against body sent an electric thrill racing through Ember's every nerve, setting her ablaze with adrenaline and desire. Absinth, lean and powerful, pressed her body harder into Em's, so close that the Carpathian girl could feel every ripple and flex of the other fae's muscles straining against her. It was an erotic sensation to be grappling so ferociously with the wolf who had just had her tongue down her throat, that smoldering fire now a raging inferno in Ember's belly aching for relief. But more than relief, Ember craved the satisfaction of victory. Of throwing down the Syndicate wolf and claiming her dominance. It was primal carnage between the two faes as they fought fang and claw against one another for every inch of ground, every scrap of advantage over their opponent. Ember was determined not to be the loser.

Beyond the feral sounds of snarling and snapping jaws, no words were spoken between the two combatants. They let their bodies do the talking, engaged in a violent conversation that could have been a debate or a serenade. Absinth looked pleased with the fight so far; Em clearly had met her opponent's expectations. Absi broke their wordless battle, complimenting her while taunting her for more. The insinuation that came with Absi's declaration that she liked things rough sent an excited chill racing down Ember's back that settled into tingles beneath her tail. Oh, she wanted rough? Ember could give her rough.

Despite the goading and teasing, Ember refused to make the first move. She knew that if she rushed in on Absinth again, she'd just get thrown to the ground once more. So this time, she held her place, meeting those electrified green eyes that crackled like live wires with desire. Fuck, she was so hot...! Were all faes this hot when you fought them, or was it just Absinth? Neither fae moved, daring the other to strike first, the tension palpable between them, just waiting to burst. And then it did as Absi lunged at her. Ember's lithe muscles tensed, ready to spring into action, but Absinth moved too quickly, and before she could dodge out of the way to counterattack she felt the other fae's body slam into hers, nearly taking her off her paws.

Ember responded quickly with jaws snapping at Absinth's face, but she couldn't make contact with the way the Syndicate woman had tucked her head in towards Em's neck. Ember's paws scrabbled at Absi's neck and chest, trying to grapple onto her wherever she could reach and managing only to scratch through her fur to claw up her skin, perhaps breaking the skin or just leaving welts wherever her feline claws met her flesh. Unable to secure a hold on her opponent or keep her footing, Ember was sent toppling backwards onto her back in the snow, Absinth coming with her with the forward momentum. Em grunted as she hit the ground, and in the next instant Absinth was on top of her, pinning the Carpathian girl to the ground with her weight.

The next thing Ember felt was the prick of sharp fangs around her throat and the press of paws onto her chest, the squeeze of jaws around her throat just enough to make breathing a bit harder and sending a fiery jolt of lust and panic through her body. Em gasped at the sensation, eyes going wide, heart racing and heat pooling between her thighs. Her paws reflexively shot up to press into Absinth's chest, claws digging into her skin, but it was no use. Ember knew she had been bested with Absinth's jaws around her throat.

After a moment more of squirming and struggling, Ember collapsed to the snow with a shudder and a sigh, eyes closed and mouth parted with heavy breaths as she submitted to Absinth, a quiet lustful moan slipping from her lips from the erotic feelings of the other fae's jaws still around her neck, squeezing just enough to give a sensation of choking and skirting the lines of dangerous and sexual. "You win," she whispered between panting breaths, Ember's eyes finally opening again to seek out Absinth's emerald gaze with a burning need she'd never before experienced in her life. Now she just wondered what the salacious fae would have in store for her...
