Ouroboros Spine [Moose Herding Quest?]

8 — This one is for her attempt to bite Sitri. I'll leave her snap at Mordecai as T1.

He turned, but too slowly to do too much about it. She slammed into him again, proving again that she had no idea how to use her body advantageously, but relishing the contact nevertheless. Her eyes burned hatefully as they met his in a brief moment, but there was no reasoning that could stop this now. His insults burned in her mind, reminding her that if she didn't shut him up for good, she would never sleep again.

She lashed out fiercely, trying once more to get a firm hold on the side of his neck so she could end his life. Whether or not she caught the flesh there was unsure, for they were jostled again, and the Alpha's patience with intervention frayed entirely. She turned, aiming a disciplinary snap at Mordecai's face with the intent of warning him away from the fray.

She didn't know what he hoped to accomplish here. Sitri would never be allowed to persist in the Spine, and he had directly threatened her life. Why he should try to stop her still was beyond her—possibly he saw what she didn't. Blood flowed freely from her deep wounds, mixing with the mud already there. If she continued much longer, no doubt she would die of blood loss, but she didn't feel the effects.
