She was disappointed that the girl did not take the bait, but it also wasn’t much of a surprise. That kind of trick would have been too easy. She dropped her hand as Fleta backed away. Well, so much for that idea, she might as well go ahead and run her from the lands then. Yet before she made a move Terra retorted with something. “Ahh,” she nodded, feeling irritated. “But that is vhat I told you I was doing, is it not?“ She raised an eyebrow. She thought the girl would figure that out when she said that she would take her to someone. Of course she had to be initiated first, what was she, one of the daft ones in Cour des Miracles or something? Liliya’s former pack had not been much on ceremony. Salsoa was rich with ceremony and tradition. “If you are not here to join then you are a trespasser. You come to sneak on Salsoa to steal its secrets, not to help pack prosper,” her recital served to reinvigorate her original offense. As she talked a fire within her was fanned, and she stuck to her original plan rather than reverting to just running the girl off. Still her words weren’t spoken angrily, but measured and steady. It wasn’t until the day’s breeze delivered a sample of Fleta’s scent to her nose that she bristled. It was familiar. A canine never forgot a scent, and this one struck a raw chord within Liliya. Funny that she had just mused about it… It was the trace of the Court. Her eyes narrowed ever so slightly. That was the last straw for Liliya. The woman had the gall to breech Salsoa’s borders, seek out their secrets, and not even act properly culled when she was called out. The Russian lunged forward, just as skillfully as she would when fishing, and the net that was in her occupied hand flung forward. The ends opened up and the rope soared towards Terra. If she were caught in this trap in her lupus form it would be a challenge to escape. As the net flew through the air Liliya snatched her blade again and lunged forward to pin and disable Fleta, the poles attached to her back clattered with the sudden movement. |
