Spirited Away

The sand-colored wolf kept his eyes and ears open, watching, listening for anything or anyone else. Although he was tired, if this lady had actually been attacked by something, and it was nearby, then he did not want it to surprise him too. Whatever had been going on out in the sea seemed to have calmed slightly, leaving him to hear only the gentle, yet somewhat eerie sounds of a slight wind and the water. It seemed he and this stranger were totally alone here, but he was not quite ready to relax just yet.

Adrian regretted his decision to ask her name as soon as she attempted to speak again. Though he focused on her speech, he could not quite make out her name. He'd thought perhaps keeping her awake might be the best choice, but now he was feeling he'd been wrong. Undisturbed rest was probably the best thing for her, now. She seemed to be out of any imminent danger, though she was still shivering. He pressed himself as close as he was willing. Usually he would not be found so close to anyone, under any circumstance, let alone a female, but this situation was different.

My name...is..Una.. He titled his head a bit closer this time, also finding her speech to be a bit clearer. Her name was Una. A slight smile crossed his face for a mere moment, until he heard her thank him. The smile faded away, and he turned his eyes, suddenly unable to look at the lady for some reason he could not quite explain. Perhaps it was because he did not want anyone to feel like they owed him.

"Well.. Una, I'm just glad I passed by when I did." Who knew how much longer she would've lasted in that cold water. Adrian had thought his wandering had been random up to this point, but maybe.. just maybe, there had been some mysterious, unknown factor guiding him to this place, at this exact time, for this reason. It did not seem like a far fetched notion at all.

A small sigh escaping his maw, golden eyes turned back to look at the other. "I think.. you should rest now. If there's anything else I can do.. just, ask." He said softly, adjusting his posture to get a bit more comfortable. This sand wasn't the most pleasant thing to lie on, but it was still marginally better than what he'd had as of lately.
