His eyes reminded her of a wolf. He reminded her of a wolf. He was stealthy and dangerous, especially when cornered, and most of all, he was deadly. Those eyes of his even shared that same honeyed hue with wolves. They were the eyes of a predator. Aang was his prey and she was caught somewhere in the middle. Prey by association? No, definitely not. In his eyes she didn’t matter, only his restored honor mattered.
Katara wanted to kick and scream when he turned to look at her. Their latest confrontation with Zuko wasn’t as hostile as before, but that didn’t mean she felt any more comfortable with him looking at her. Damn her nerves! Every time he leveled his gaze on her form her breath became short and her skin felt like it was on fire, her stomach would even start doing countless somersaults. All of that from one heated, brooding look. What could possible make her react this way? It was ridiculous and she couldn’t stand it!
