Starglow Basin bruja,

let me know if anthing needs to be changed!

saya moved swiftly, her steps purposeful and sharp as she closed the distance to qiao. a shadow in motion, her teeth bared, catching the pale light of the moon as her muscles coiled and released with lethal precision. her weight drove into the crone’s slender frame, pressing her to the ground with an almost mechanical force.

you should have stayed out of this, saya hissed, her voice low and venomous, the edge of a blade hidden beneath silken steel.

qiao struggled beneath her, but saya’s grip was firm, her claws digging into the thin skin of her captive’s sides. she leaned in, her muzzle dangerously close to qiao’s ear, but her gaze remained fixed on soto, awaiting further instruction, her body a taut bowstring ready to release its fury. the faint flicker of blood on her teeth caught the light, a wicked grin playing at the edges of her lips.

she said nothing more, only exerted the kind of control that spoke of a wolf who had mastered her place in the fray. she would not kill—not yet. there was more to see, more to savor in the chaos unfolding around her.
