Permafrost Hollows Fight or flight

Steele retracted his head from her shoulder and backed away. Since it was his touch that set her off he wondered what had happened to her for it to be this way. He kept his glowing amber eyes on hers watching as they turned from fear to sadness, wondering why. Males seemed to have such bad light now a days, and he wanted to change that. 

His face softened with her sadness. “I don’t know what to do. I wish I could help you. I know you don’t understand me.” He said frustrated. His brows furrowed and he looked at the ground. It was obvious someone had done her wrong, physically and then that led to emotionally. He took his paw and drew in the ground, it wasn’t anything just lines to give the pale female time to calm after being upset. He racked his brain for any way he could communicate with her to let her know he’s harmless.
