"You seem to think you have a choice. You're mistaken." His words snarl forward from his dark mouth. Emerson did her best to ignore the obvious way he looked over her body, but his words caused her eyes to narrow angrily. "You find yourself within the commons. The unspoken law decrees that any unclaimed mare can be taken... and that fate has now befallen you. You are claimed, your destiny sealed by Leif of the Lagoon."
She remembered a stretch of valley with similar rules in the land she'd been born in. Emerson hadn't thought she would be subject to the custom by mere accident, and it infuriated her, stoking the dark fire that lingered in her blood. There is no signal of her aggression before the painted mare lashed out at the stallion beside her, aiming for his shoulder or neck, something that would hurt him.
Regardless or whether she reached her target, the black-spattered female darted away to create distance between them, before turning on him with bared teeth. "My destiny is my own, you sniveling dog," she spat vehemently. Any trace of the docile, soothing demeanor she had carried before was completely cast off. This was a daughter of Viral, and though her lineage carried no weight here, she was of a hardier make than any mare who might go willingly with him.
