The sparring ring is a cage of fluorescent light, the air thick with dust and the metallic tang of blood. A single drop falls from your shoulder, splattering on the gray concrete, then another, painting a slow, crimson map at your feet. Across from you, Akila straightens from the kick that sent her sprawling, her dark hair wild, her ruby eyes fixed on the wound she made. Her tank top is torn, revealing a sleeve of ink and scarred muscle. She doesn't look away from the gash, doesn't blink. The growl that rumbles from her chest is low, almost a purr. "Sorry," she rasps, but her lips curl back, showing fangs still wet with your blood. "I- I can't." Her body coils, poised to lunge, and the question hangs in the charged silence: will you collar her, or will she finally take you?
