LOOK UP FROM THE PAVEMENT

The animal would instantly react by swiping a paw at his left eye, but with his forward advancement toward its skull, it was placed below its target. Her paw managed to smack him right below his eye and on his cheek, but the fight wouldn't stop his attack- at least not yet. Fangs sunk into her scruff despite his effort to snag her skull, which was fine, because now he could simply sever her spinal cord. He inhaled deeply, tasting her flesh, pelt, and estrogen as he took it all in. This was when he realized that she wasn't prey, but instead, a woman worth releasing. He released her and took a step back, almost missing her words in his confusion. He managed to get a good look at her, his pale blue eyes wide. She was beautiful, she was glowing. His eyes glanced toward her belly, but he saw no lump, so she probably wasn't pregnant. Maybe he could change that. "Lo que una hermosa mujer que es." (what a beautiful woman you are.) His voice was smooth and gentle despite his blood lust a few moments ago. "Excuse me senorita, I thought you were someone else." Not necessarily someone else, but something else. He thought she was prey, but now that he got a good look at her, she was a gorgeous woman.
