Stone Circle heartache

At the boy's request, Grayday stood back on his hind legs once more, making an effort to keep his balance for longer, this time. He even managed to take a few wobbly steps before he fell back onto all fours, more gracefully than his previous 'trick' had gone.

"Just keep practicing," Day instructed, eyes glittering merrily as he imagined the kid practicing in front of Steady, in the future. He wasn't sure how the alpha would feel about this sort of shenanigans, but whatever, this was adorable and Day was sure that Steady would see this before anything else. "I gotta get back to my hunt - Stay out of trouble, kiddo," he instructed, poking his nose at the pup and giving him a few sloppy kisses before moving on, tail wagging now as he went on his way.
