Otter Creek I’m all yours

The distance between them gradually decreased and he watched her all the while, sceptical but not unwelcoming. He couldn’t look away, curious to see what exactly she was planning, only to be caught off-guard by the flicker of pink. He tensed up immediately but their closeness was not lost. He continued to eye her for a good minute before looking back at the otters, accepting her being there; although the contact nearly made was concerning at first, it’d soon spoken to his instinctual side, quelling whatever budding qualms he may have had with her.

Content with now having her on his side, he threw her one last glance before darting forward, a pale streak tearing towards his prey. His jaws were parted long before he reached them, ready to grab hold of the first one he reached—but the creatures were slippery and quick, easily evading his grasp. His jaws closed around air, just the same as before, whilst the otters scattered; some ran for cover whilst others simply tried to get away, each taking off in a different direction.

Again, Xan took off after one, herding it towards the girl. He barked in her direction a few times as he did so, eager to walk away from this little game of chase with something to make it worthwhile.
