It was like watching a train wreck play out slowly across her features. The scrunch of her nose, the flare of her nostrils, and flattening of her ears. Even if Ty was lying, her startled hare in the headlights expression would have given lie to her own tale. Well. Shit on a dipstick. There was only one way to be sure.
Leaving the sheep behind her and swallowing her fear, she forced herself forward. One step, then another. Make it look natural. There was iron in her vains, as sturdy as the dragon scales across her forehead. Add a haughty flick to her stride. Be prepared to call him out on his lie, for it had to be a lie. Even her luck wasn't that bad.
She approached the base of his pedestal and raised her head to the sky. Breathing in deep, sampling.
Oh shit.
If there was a God, please for heavens sake, anything but the return to her own life. Anything but that. "Well then." She said, taking in a deep, steadying breath. She couldn't back down now, she had made her bed. "Then you should understand that I was returning her to your pack, and had every intention of keeping from the paws of any highway robber that might lurk in the area. I kept her safe for you." Would he even believe her now? She had gotten so caught up in spinner story. Would he think she was full of nothing but shit now? Even if the ring of truth surrounded her words.
