Stone Circle Faced with Fear

I dont mind at all!

Greyback smiled as he trailed with Valette, his shoulder and side rubbing against her as they walked, occasionally bumping into her with a playful smirk. He was glad he got to spend more time with her, knowing more about her, seeing her for the real her instead of just a 'leader.' She was kind, humble, caring...radiant. He looked at her without fear of getting caught, his eyes shining with something of passion unrivaled.

But as soon as he heard her voice, he snapped his head into the direction she was looking. He had failed to see the movement on the plains with his attention on her. What could of alerted her? Bounding after into a run, Greyback followed his friend with a sense of caution, his face contorted into that of scrutinizing gaze and heavy frown. "Valette?"

As he neared where she stopped he instantly noticed her fear, her small frame rigid and stuck, her eyes wide. The fur on his spine rose, and with a curt growl the easthollow wolf eyed the intruder. It was some type of cat, a very large one at that. The older remembered hearing of them in the mountains- their impressive strength and claws feared by many.

Lowering his head, Greyback softly whispered to Valette "You need to duck down,". The grass was tall enough to hide her if the cat hadn't already seen her. There was no way she could fight off and defend the territory in a state of shock; perhaps she could get away without being spotted. "Valette, hide in grass." He repeated, nudging her in attempt to break her out of the spell.
