Possibilites are yes the cat in question could be in a pain, or he is trying to show dominance.
I hope that you sort out this situation & I wish you luck

sorry to pick up on this but 'domestic' cats arnt wild  ....and infact new evidence has found that they were domesticated far far earlier than was previously thought..progenitors of today's cats split from their wild counterparts more than 100,000 years ago, on the otherhand the bengal has been developed from recent cross with a wild cat species.
