The predator’s game. He could see the acceptance of it in her. The dominance of her tail lashing readily sped his pulse. The warm blood carried energy through his limbs and faded the pain still in his chest. He admired her full height when realizing for the first time in a long while that she stood a bit taller than he in this form. Just more of her to take down. He moved oppositely in response, bringing his body into a stance ready for an attack and rolling his shoulders unconsciously. She was confidant in her power and it egged him on. He wanted to see it. In the back of his mind, he truly hoped she wouldn’t make a mistake and let him win so easily. Where would the fun be in that?
His grin stayed a constant with every show of her body. Her words only entertained him further as she took a position in this game. Cripple me? He questioned with exaggerated shock, brave words for a female with only one embarrassing loss to defend them. The words would have been potent goading to an enemy. They held less power in this position of tease but they were purposefully encouraging. Just as the first time they had crossed skill, he wanted her to attack first. Both of them had the highest skill in defending from other’s attacks. Whoever threw the first strike would be at a disadvantage. Jaden was proud of his skill and somewhat confidant, but he wasn’t going to hand her the upper hand so easily.
Jaden does. Jaden speaks. Jaden thinks.
