Horizon Ridge kill the boy

His answer caused Atreyu's ears to swivel back in disappointment and frustration, his brows furrowing as he cast his gaze out to the ocean. He knew he shouldn't be so impatient, expecting answers the second he started his investigation, but he couldn't help feeling like he had to find this wolf as quickly as possible. He couldn't let him think he had gotten away with the murder. And what if the man had just been passing through? Some psychotic killer roaming the Wilds?

Turning back to the stranger, Atreyu cocked his right ear towards him, studying his unusual nose before looking up to his equally odd eyes. A flicker of hope shot through his features, and he took a few determined steps forward, head lowered as he spoke lowly, "a murderer." He quickly regretted revealing that, realising he probably shouldn't be so open about it. What if the more territorial and ambitious wolves of the Wilds caught wind that the Bay had lost one of it's Alphas? "A male. Probably big," he added, gaze fixated upon the blue-nosed wolf as if he had the answers.
