Moonspear let it be

Sure thing!  Last post for me :D

He was a good patient.  Though she knew well that he was in terrible pain from what she was doing, he did not fight her.  He looked like he wanted to.  He actually looked like he wanted to snap his jaws around her muzzle and pitch her off the mountain for a brief second there.  He did nothing though, instead obeying without question and finally giving his greatful acceptance when she offered to find him food.

Harlyn nodded and stood to go, but paused for a moment.  She hesitated as though uncertain of whether or not to leave him again, but eventually she leaned down and touched her nose comfortingly against his temple.  "I'll be back as soon as I can," she reassured him, "Try and sleep - Rest is the best medicine for you now."

With that, Harlyn sped off again.  It would be even longer before she returned to him as hunting prey was far more difficult than hunting for plants.  But soon enough, she would be back to spend the rest of her night and much of the next day looking over him until she deemed that he was out of danger and would be safe on his own.  Then she'd have to return to her own pack which, though did not truly have her heart, still had her loyalty.
