Her ears pinned back adds to the personality he felt radiating off of her. This one would cause him lots of trouble. Unlike Isla she may be one he would have to pay attention to. With that thought he is taken aback as she strikes out suddenly. His claiming nip was set to land perfectly on her chest, but not without retaliation. Suddenly, one of her front legs fly upwards the clocks him under his chin.
The spotted stallion stumbles backward with a grunt. Ears lay back in response as her threat clearly states just what kind of mare she was. This was no Isla and she didn't come with the run around questioning Rúna did. No, this one was fiesty. She seemed to know what the game was and just how to play it. His skin stings where her teeth just pinched his skin. "I see you enjoy violence," The words pour off his lips with a hint of venom.
"You will not fit in with the rest of the Inlet's herd, but you sure as hell fit next to me." His grin overpowers the sting at the base of his neck. This would be a good time to remember the teachings Isla taught him. He had asked the mare to teach him manners for a reason though it hadn't been his plan to use it on a random mare in the Commons. No, he had wanted to test it out on Rúna. I guess there was still time for that later especially since he was finding it hard not to be himself with this one.
