His ears flicked back, a fist rising on his right. He could handle that. A forearm raised to meet it, ready for the block. If that was supposed to scare him it wasn't enough. Then again, she was going easy on him. What she'd shown him before was enough to tell him that. Eyes flicked again, arms barely prepared for the fist as a leg swung up to knock him off balance, hitting the floor. His heart sped up, thinking about his options.
Nodding his head Hadley pivoted, moving out of reach. The fist hit his forearm hard enough, making it difficult for him to think about his reaction to the kick that had whizzed past. One arm scooped down, ready to grab her leg and twist her body to knock her to the ground. Simple self defense, a handful of lessons in the past, even if he had never gotten the full hang of it. He just wasn't a violent guy, no matter how hard he trained.
