Only moments before, his senses had been flooded with the sweet scent of elderberries and maple trees, the air crisp and sweet. But quickly it changed, instead laden with the pungent aroma of strangers. And then he heard that crack, and he knew without a doubt that another wolf lingered nearby. Why he was being watched, or followed, he didn't know. There was nothing particularly interesting about him, not that he knew, and he found another whimper slipping effortlessly from his lips. The woman moved to reveal herself. He caught a flash of white fur from the corner of his eye and instinctively his head would jerk, turning to face the stranger. She was not different from the wolves he had encountered in his travels but something seemed strange about her. Curiosity shone in his pale gaze as he eyed her, feeling quite timid, though her own posture was far from aggressive. "Are these your lands?" he would ask quickly, his voice quivering slightly. "I didn't mean to intrude, honest, I was just wandering..." There wasn't a single bone in his body that would want to stay if they asked him otherwise. His own head dipped low, tail tucked securely between his legs as he stared at the lady. |
