He admired her sleek, muscular body and thought to himself, You know... she's kind of beautiful. He'd realized from the first that she was strong, fierce and primal—all the qualities of a well-bred Alpha female—but he wouldn't have used this particular descriptor until just now.

"Come at me, Hawkeye," he invited her a moment later, looking rather silly as she pranced on the tips of his toes, something he'd only allow certain wolves—apparently including Hawkeye now—to ever witness.
