Dauntless watched his father run off, his little tail wagging in the afterglow of the fun game they had all been playing. He could tell at once that this new wolf was a very special one, for the joy was nearly radiating off his father like warm steam. Yipping along with his siblings, Dauntless raced to catch up. He always seemed to be last and was constantly stumbling over his chubby puppy haunches, but that did not stop him from excitedly greeting the young male wolf. He touched his nose affectionately to Sunny's and looked at him with adoring brown eyes. This was his big brother? Dauntless felt a flood of pride in his young body. He liked Sunny immediately. "Hello," he said bashfully, trying not to let his sisters push him out of the way so they could get all of the attention.
