Bound by nothing

Out of curiosity Jupiter followed the death cries. If there was a meal being taken then there was potentially a meal to be stolen and who didn't love a freebie? He was surprised to find, however, that once he got to the place he knew the sounds were coming from he could find neither prey nor predator. By then the cries had died away - pun intended - leaving him with silence and nothing to go off of. Interesting. The giant glanced around, eyes straining and nose twitching as he tried to find evidence to support what his ears had told him.

It was the groaning of the lower branch as Sylvia stepped down that gave her away. Immediately his gaze shot up and he spied her in the tree. He'd expected maybe a cat of some kind so imagine his surprise when he looked up and spied a large wolf. Jupiter's surprised expression quickly turned to appreciation as he took stock of the very attractive tree climber. "Damn," he enthused with a lopsided grin. "Here I was thinkin' and dreadin' about gettin' pounced on by a cat. But if it strikes you right, you just pounce away, honey. I'll take it."
