No, No, No!

Stjarna eyed the cat, locking eyes with her while trying to look as big and as frightening as possible so maybe the cat might back down. She didn't. She lunged for Star, but before her attack could connect another wolf slammed into her in mid leap. As a result both she and the man went tumbling to the side. Stjarna's legs coiled and the wolf sprang toward the pair. Fangs locked onto the back of the lion's scruff, right near the nape of her neck. They held tight, arms wrapped around her neck but it soon became clear this wasn't as safe a position as Star had thought. The lioness flopped on her side, hind leg reaching up and claws tearing into the wolf's side. Stjarna released their hold and scrambled away. Thankfully, the scratches weren't too deep but they still stung terribly.
