Raeg'n
She was going to do it! She'd learned to bite like him, and she'd show him. But just as she was about to sink her teeth into him, she was yanked back and nearly thrown. With a pained grunt, she landed in slick mud not far away, but clear of the shelter of the tree. Rain drowned out the mare's words as she seemed to snap at the man.
Raeg'n growled and pulled herself up, navy coat painted in dark muck. She only caught the mare's last word, soldier, as she stalked back to the tree. Was she calling him a soldier? He was vicious enough to be, for sure. Cold-hearted. Tough.
Soldier.. Yeah, that's what she'd be one day. Strong and battle-worthy. Her gaze met him with a fresh challenge, and she pulled herself back to where she was before. She wouldn't make the move this time, learning to be wary of his actions. If she were to bite again, she'd have to watch more carefully for a counter-attack. She wasn't prepared for that, so she stood and tried to settle her nerves.
I'm staying, she said firmly. Indeed, she was staying. And more than that; if he moved, she'd move. She would follow him until she learned all she could. She'd be a soldier too, and he'd teach her whether he wished to or not.
She stood, freshly drenched in rain, with stony determination in her eyes. It would take more than a bite and a yank to shake her now, and she'd soak in the knowledge if he tried again.
