Redhawk Caldera Tread With Caution

She didn't even attempt to flee. Instead, she retaliated, which only served to amp up Peregrine's desire to kill her for her gall. But a bite to the flesh of her back was hardly a deadly blow, so nearly as soon as his fangs sank into her, the dark Alpha unlatched and stepped backward. This gave the interloper the perfect chance to graze his right foreleg with her teeth, leaving a superficial but stinging wound there.

"I'm going to kill you for that, you moronic bitch," he hissed, snapping his jaws and once more aiming for her throat. She could twist, turn and attempt to thwart him all she wanted. She couldn't avoid a fatal stroke forever, though, and her only bet for survival was to run away... which she showed no sign of doing.
