Alone Together

Nako took the smile this she-wolf gave in stride as a sign of friendly tiding, his tail giving a wag. He shook his pelt of the increasing snowfall and looked up at the sky. Snow was really coming down now, thick flakes and lots of them. And the temperature was falling. This sign of a cold snap. The female before him spoke and he returned his attention to her, remembering his manners his mother had impressed upon him despite being very much like his father. This she-wolf confirmed his reasoning for her being out here by herself. In heat.

The wood bordered entrance to the mines along the mountainside were eyed and Nako shook at the dropping temperature. Definitely a cold snap. He turned to her and motioned for her to follow him as he replied. "Cold snap is coming in. We best get inside the mines. A good quiet place for us?to wait this thing out if that's what you fancy." Nako shook the snow off of his pelt again and crouched under the wooden supports. Darkness wrapped around him, the wind whistling through the entrance and his remaining ear flicked, the male continued around the bend in the tunnel and sat down, awaiting this she-wolf.
