It didn't take too long for her companion to stir, and turning her head to watch him quietly shake sleep from his system Mercianne was very surprised to see that he woke instead with a start. His dazzling blue eyes alighted on her as he turned her way, wide and almost awe struck.

He was wrong in her eyes - she was just about as normal as any other wolf - but it was nice to know he thought so well of her. "I slept really good," she answered, surprising herself to find that the words were true. For having spent the night in hay, it had turned out better than anticipated, especially considering the pair of them had been out in the open and not secluded within the safe border of a pack's territory.
