It's okay if you don't like me.
His willingness to step towards her was perhaps a character flaw on his part. Maybe it was overconfidence? Or desperation for whatever bounty offer he'd received? Whatever it was, had Thal grinning sharply in excitement. Finally, a toy to play with that didn't squirm at her flames. So when he grabbed her wrist, she made the possibly questionable decision to let him, curiosity winning over. After all, if she really wanted to, she could just incinerate him where he stood. Yet something told her she wouldn't want to miss this.
She spun her body around with the sharp wrench of her arm that followed. It was painful enough to notice, but she just gave an amused smile. This wasn't the first time she'd found herself in this position, and it showed as she seamlessly dropped the dagger into her opposite hand. Content to play with him a little longer, she didn't immediately utilize the blade. Instead, she pressed her toned body against him, allowing every part of her back to become flush with his chest and lower body. The heat of their proximity and the growing fire didn't bother her, even if it might have him sweating. Completely aware of her seductive figure and how it often affected men, she tilted her head up to let him to hear her husky response, "Do you always treat your women so gently, kitty?" It was both a challenge and an inquisition. A test. Was this the best he had?

Not everyone has good taste.
