The Sunspire So close to going all the way

Breccan's tail whipped back and forth so fast and hard that the movement threatened to throw him off balance. His entire rear end swayed as he looked expectantly up at Rueger, who introduced himself. "Woo-guh!" he repeated, forming the consonant sounds of the older wolf's name to the best of his abilities.

When he commented on the hoof, Breccan looked at it quickly. He worried that Woo-guh might try to take it away, but he didn't seem to be making any movements to do so. Still, Breccan swiftly closed the gap between himself and his plaything and then scooped it into his mouth. He regarded Woo-guh thoughtfully for a moment, then decided to share. He stepped closer to his new friend, then dropped the hoof at his feet.

"Pway?" he requested, fervently hoping in the back of his mind that Woo-guh wouldn't steal the hoof.
