walk this way

@Tomahawk

She had captured his attention. For what reason he had yet to figure. From afar he would watch, but the plains did not offer much for vantage points, and the wolves followed the bison, and she followed the wolves. The combination did not make for easy stalking, and he abandoned the tactic. He sought a place where he had encountered her before.

Here, he caught a mouse. The soft squeaks that lead him to it became shrill squeals as his teeth closed on it. He hesitated not to swallow it whole. A second mouse met the same fate, and then the edge had been taken off his hunger. He leaped upon a decently tall rock, flat and smooth across its top. Laid out like a sphinx, he waited.

Perhaps she would walk this way.
