Re: During the Full -- Ted/Remus/Dom
As she stepped forward, he could sense the pain she was trying to hide, see it in the careful movements on uncertain legs. He could feel his own fur bristle as he sensed her challenge along with it. The eye contact spoke to the animal's instincts, not the heart of the man.
Maintaining his position, he waited -- waited for her to make the first move, waited with all the regal power of the wolf the man normally hid behind quiet laughter and slightly hunched shoulders. Blessedly, he could be assured there would be no repeats of the dominance battles he'd spoken of only the night before.
They would need to establish things now. It was better to do this early on so as not to be forced to always be on edge around each other until it was done. But, this time status could be set without, he hoped, any injury.
Depending on what her first move was in the face of an alpha male.
