Panthers were lithe, spectacularly graceful creatures.
Lions, not so much.
Al landed in a heap, years of training the only thing that kept him from tumbling ass over teakettle as he took Edmund's weight and his own. But he was tenacious, if nothing else. The rag was still clamped tight in his jaws, so he shook his head ferociously to jar Edmund off it, hoping to emerge victorious (if slightly crushed) with his prize.
It never occured to him that wrestling with a prince, let alone this prince, might be considered inappropriate. Among the many Alpha traits Al eschewed was overpowering sexuality. He hadn't even considered what it would be like for Edmund to be this close to him. Add the other complicating factors, and this could turn messy, quickly. Especially if Peter heard about it.
