She can feel the thunder of her heart against her ribs, it is a quick staccato that thunders in her ears and her chest. The blood rushes through her veins as the adrenaline begins to heighten her senses. She feels stronger now that the painted man stands near her shoulder, but there is a stirring of anxiety in her gut. And then it manifests itself in the form of a beast of a stallion. Her ears instantly disappear beneath her thick caramel locks, as his scent assaults her nostrils and his words are menacingly spoke into the air. A chill settles into her bones as the woman begins to speak, she makes a demand that is so outlandish; a laugh falls from Caesiusus' lips. "That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard," she scoffs as her eyes narrow on the mare and raises her head defiantly. "And I will do no such thing." She was not a damsel in distress and she would insure that this mare and her lover would know this before the night was through. The cracking of branches draws her attention momentarily, but she keeps her eyes on the pair. As Shamwari strides forth and he throws a glare at her, she can feel her blood boil. She was not a disobedient child and she was not going to hide in the bushes while there were those out here who needed her assistance. She draws herself taller as Shamwari orders them to leave, a smirk traces across her pink lips. Her body begins to vibrate with anticipation, she is eager to chase them into the shadows of the Forest. She craves to see them dive straight into the surf and swim back to whatever hell hole they had crawled from. Her emerald eyes linger on the stallion, something about him makes her skin crawl. Finally, an image flickers to the forefront of her mind... Fallo. She remembers the same wolfish way that he looked at her pale skin, hungering to taste it on his lips. And her blood runs cold. She loathes this wolfish stallion and curses him for dredging up a dark chapter of her story. wayfinding woman of the prairie |
