Silence stretched between them, neither looking away as they waited for the other to make the first move.
Isadora's heartbeat pulsed rapidly in her chest, her lingering smirk curled on her lips, mirroring Kraven's.
He kept his silver eyes on her like a predator marking its prey, ready to pounce when needed.
A hot thrill shot through Isadora, her boots moved backward, the sharp crunching sound filling the air. She saw it then… the dark glint in his eyes begging her to run.
Her race quickened as her body twirled. At the corner of her eye, she saw him move, a squeak escaping from her as Kraven chased her, but he had more speed and caught up quickly.
His hands wrapped around her wrist, and Isadora thrashed to break free, causing both of them to tumble into the snow.
The flurry of white, exploding around them and twirling into the air. Kraven grunted as Isadora landed on him. She quickly adjusted her body and straddled his waist, giggling as she shoved snow directly into his face.
