Blizzard’s expression fell as suddenly as his wings dropped limp at his sides- his eyes portraying hurt in the face of rejection but it was short lived as he turned and saw the dagger thrust out before her, threateningly angled in his direction. He snarled instinctively since he was still wound up from the scuffle and felt anger boiling up among his inner fire. Lie or not he had just saved her and this was how she thanked him?!

He should have saw her fear but all he felt was his own hurt and the raging frustration that ate at his insides at her sudden decision- all because he had teeth! He wanted to knock her to the ground and scream right in her face so she could feel how he did right then. His muscles coiled to pounce but something stopped him-

Behind blind instinct he was an intelligent creature. She had not betrayed him because in her mind they had never been close, he’d never been anything been a docile beast and now she saw that he wasn’t merely a harmless kitten pawing for attention. He released the tension in his body and dropped down onto his stomach cooing softly with regret.
