Blood In The Water

Keahi holds onto the taller male’s leg for as long as she can. The coopery taste of blood fills her mouth as she slowly increases pressure, a low growl emanating from the red wolf when she feels the male’s mouth closes around the back of head. The sting of his teeth slicing her flesh has a smile curving her lips upward and she shifts to slam her head into his chest. In the end, the male absorbs her hit and shifts his weight back to rise up and wrap his front legs around her, effectively ending the fight. His teeth in deeper for a moment before he releases hold and steps back and Keahi retreats a few steps further before looking up to the male and giving him a polite nod in answer to his head dip. He licks his wound and the red wolf gives her coat a good shake to rid her neck of some of the blood from her own wound. It isn’t bad but it will sting for a few days every time she moves her neck. It will serve as a nice reminder of this fight.

As the dark colored male licks his leg, he informs her that she has style and a soft laugh rolls out of Keahi’s mouth. Then, he asks her name and the red wolf dips her head in greeting and says, “My name is Keahi, sir and you fought well. Are all wolves in this land fighters like you?” Her head tilts in curiosity as she moves to sit in front of him, hoping that he might be able to tell her more about this extraordinary place and its customs.
