Whose Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?

Rœkia set her defenses and prepared herself to go on the offense again. The dire lunged for her but there was a noticeable struggle to his gait and she spied the pups on the brute's tail but she couldn't take in the sight for long for even with two pups on his tail the dire moved swiftly. Rœkia saw the fangs going for her own face and she swiftly ducked her head, twisting as she caught the dire by the throat. As she rotated her head to avoid the dire she felt his lower fangs cut her cheek but she used the momentum to her advantage and she braced herself against his weight as she clamped her jaws over his throat. Somewhere nearby her magpie companion, Wolf, dove for the dire, pecking brutally at its face. The dire wrapped his arms around her and she could feel the weight pushing her down.
