Re: Ladies .... how would you follow this lead?

From the lady's (follow's) perspective.

Started close, his left to my right.
Both step back.
He gives a slight pull toward himself (as for a travelling return), but
... takes my hand high and to my right.

What do I do?
d. Feels like a "Step Across" to me, so far.

But assuming I was expecting to go into a return, and you'd led that, I'd actually be quite confused. No turn would feel natural from there, so I wouldn't turn at all, or travel under your arm. I'd probably either stop & wait for a clearer lead, or walk past, NOT under your arm, and turn to face.

(half turn under, half turn back, half turn under, half turn back again).
Which would work as I'd be stopped.

Anything else I can do?? [Short of squawking that is!!!]
Keep your body to the right to block me, and your hand as far to the right of me as you can. That'd stop me returning. And dance with ladies who anticipate less!
