Don't Blame It On Me

Hakku would reel back as a femme suddenly snapped at his muzzle. Where had she come from!? He would flick his ears back. He would back away from her, eyeing her with a cautious look. "...I'm sorry, I didn't see you. As for why I'm here, well, this is a free land. Any wolf is free to come and go here."  He would brace himself as he gazed at the woman, certain by her tone of voice that she meant nothing short of ill will. He would not allow himself to be taken again. That much he swore. Hakku would put up his defenses, giving a low growl. "I don't want to fight you, but I will if I must. Please just allow me to pass."
