Phantom Hollow Shadow Preachers

A pale silhouette formed from the cold mist, taking Damien by surprise. He thought the forest was abandoned, but he had been wrong. Could Malice's pack be still standing? And if it was, how could Damien not get their scents? The surprise mixed with the confusion took Damien aback. He raised his tail and drew his ears back with a stern expression. He needed to feel in control of the situation regardless of the circumstances.

"Who are you?" Damien demanded with a deep bark. His paws and tail were still, his eyes locked with hers. If he had been wrong and Malice's pack was still in the forest, then he could easily have walked into a trap and be surrounded in a poor physical state.
