[ A shiver of anticipation rushes up his spine as Rosie stands her ground. His eyes flick over her face, down to her lips and back up, a helpless, mindless thing. Jaden's been in many fights in the last few years, and he's been stared down by older, stronger wolves than him, but he didn't back down then, and will not now.
He has to admit to himself that there's an edge here that he's not used to. Usually, the kind of tension that's coursing between the two of them would lead Jaden to grab her by the waist, pull her close. It's the kind of tension he feels after charming a girl at a bar, not the kind of tension he's used to when challenging another wolf. He doesn't exactly want to fight her, right now. ]
And how exactly do you expect to make me submit? [ His voice is low, barely above a growl, but it's not meant to threaten. It's obvious that the emphasis he puts on the word 'me' means he doesn't consider himself a pup; Jaden's one of these kids that had to grow up way too fast to feel like his own age anymore.
He tries to keep some amusement in his voice, but it's underlain with something darker, more intimate. He swallows visibly, feeling like his heart is in his throat. Definitely not what he expected of a nighttime walk. ]
