The moment he spoke, she huffed. Unimpressed! One, he looked far too alike to her and that wasn't very... enjoyable. She took pride in being as she was and now this boy threatened to take that away from her! Though, he didn't have the same lustrous red all over him like she... in fact, he actually looked like someone she knew. Or, well, her father knew at least. She watched him through narrowed eyes, her ears flicking back as a brow raised. So what? He thought you had to know someone to walk with them? What a fool.
"You could easily be making her lead you here, or threatening her. There are heaps of variables, you know? I have to be sure that you're okay."
She spoke with a sigh and a roll of her eyes, remaining fixed on the spot, unwilling to let them pass. It was clear to her that neither of them understood anything about being, well, a wolf. She had to protect her father's borders, and in turn, her borders. Honestly, she expected Viora to know that at least! She was going to mouth off again, reminding them about the little fact that, well, they sort of had to listen to her but no... Viora had to go and jump! At first, Cersei was totally dumbstruck, blinking in confusion as she girl sailed over her. That was short lived, for soon enough she felt a nasty tug on her tail.
Instantly, she spun around with a growl, intending to pull her tail free (with the loss of hair included!) and aim straight for Viora's muzzle. That was how an Alpha showed their dominance, that much she knew! And today, she got to be the Alpha so she was going to make damn sure they listened to her... and to prove to them that no, she was not some push over. If she grabbed her muzzle, well, she wouldn't exactly be gentle; she'd grab on, biting down and shaking her head in an effort to drive her into the ground.
"Back off!"
She shouted this time, releasing (hopefully) her target and springing back towards the water's edge. She kept her posture low, the black and russet of her hackles standing on end. You know, maybe she wouldn't be letting either of them into the pack if they wanted to behave like this! This wasn't even a spar! Cheaters.
