Dirty Little Secret

This was just getting crazy. If it wasn’t bad enough the three women were present, here came her son, distracting the creature away from Zephyra. Marina would feel her heart leap to her throat as it went towards him. Thank goodness the silver woman called out. But the creature was wearing down -- it was noticeable. Marina would wait until Zeph began splashing before going back to work as well. Before long the creature had to get bored, right?

“Come on ya lug! Give up already!” Marina would snarl, splashing into the mud and water with her front paws. The creature seemed to start for her before it would finally give up, sliding back into the water away from all of them. Marina would breathe out a sigh of relief, glancing towards her children. “Ren, Zephyra, get to the bank now!” She’d give a nod towards the silver woman as well, offering a smile. She was welcome to join them on the bank if she wanted.
