Vesper’s eyes don’t leave her—not as she steps ahead beneath the ivy, not as the shadows kiss her shoulders, not even as the bioluminescent hues shift and ripple across her skin like liquid moonlight. His smirk returns, slow and dark, curling like smoke beneath his words. "That’s exactly why I thought of you," he says, voice low and curling behind her like a trailing touch. "You’d take the whole damn forest down with you, teeth and claws and all, and leave whoever tried caging you beggin’ for mercy they wouldn’t get."

The air between them hums with layered things—the heat of their last encounter still etched into his memory, the lingering burn of her hands on his skin, the razor-wire thrill of her fire and fury and feral will. Of course she reminded him of the creature he saw; beautiful and bloodthirsty, trapped but not tamed.
"Besides," he adds as he comes up beside her, gaze flicking sideways with a glint of something more feral in his eyes, "I wouldn't complain about seein' you in action again." A comment he'll leave to her to decipher.
