Her first answer created a kind of ripple in Galen's belly, something that responded to the look in Mara's eyes. Galen had come to recognize and anticipate that look, because it nearly always signaled that things between them were going to get heated. He hadn't expected to see it during a training session, but that had mostly to do with how Galen had been trained. Now, though, he could feel the heat of his Dark Side power starting to stir.
With her in such a close hold, Galen could feel himself responding to Mara's proximity even more. The Force energy fed off of hers, starting to flare to life. And on a purely physical level, as Mara maneuvered herself so that she could face him more, he'd responded by pulling her closer. Now, his front was tight against her back, from his chest almost to his knees.
The one arena where Galen had always found himself very much Mara's inferior was in teasing and being teased, but he felt he might actually have a chance. "I do have to admit I don't employ it often," he told Mara casually. "Most of my opponents aren't pretty enough for me to want to."
