The Heartwood The fall

Shortly after wishing that Peregrine would get off of her, a huge weight was relieved from her chest and Bindi was left gasping for air. She didn't except a wolf to be able to weigh that much but, in that moment the dark Alpha made it feel like a grizzly was sitting on Bindi. She lay still for a second, before pivoting so that she could see where Peregrine was. To her surprise he was just resting in one spot almost as if he was lifeless, but the rising of his chest made it clear that he was alive.

She stood to her feet and moved to where she was now standing beside his unconscious body. Bindi didn't know what the hell to do to him. Leave him to be eaten by a bear? Call for help? She bent down and grabbed onto the right side of his ear and began tugging on it in hopes of waking him up. After a few failed attempts of trying to wake the male, she let go and stood over him curious as to exactly what happened. She had never seen a wolf just fall asleep in the middle of trying to get another to submit.

Then a thought popped into her head that he might be sick, however he didn't look physically ill. After some time of trying to determine what was wrong with the guy, Bindi asked herself why she even cared about him. He was not her packmate and had absolutely no connection to her, so why was she helping him? The dark girl began to trot away leaving Peregrine's body behind, not caring if he would die or awake.
