Politely - actually, more out of respect for Al and his shyness than because he really didn't want to look - Edmund kept his gaze around his paws as Al slipped back into human form and changed. He had liked the honest steward who had a bit of playful fight in him, even before he'd seen him in alpha mode. That like was just on another level now that he had. And seeing him naked was only going to make things worse for him if he really couldn't have Al.
Not a good idea? He lifted a silky eyebrow. Still in Panther form. He felt the most comfortable in it, and the most inscrutable. That was good, since he didn't want Al to see him looking like a scorned schoolboy at his first co-ed dance.
Besides, those dark brown eyes with their gleam of yellow were very good for staring someone down. Like right now.
"Why not? You don't smell taken." Mated pairs gave off a subtly different scent, and usually had some of their mate's scent clinging to them. Al had smelled like a perfectly free and fertile alpha.
