Needle sharp teeth dug into his paw; the feeling was uncomfortable but not enough for Kavik to do anything about it. He supposed a better parent might have corrected the behavior, but Kavik thought it was too cute to make him stop. So he let him use his paw as a chew toy until suddenly the teeth were gone and a child's laugh filled the space between them. Kavik grinned down at his son, gaze following as he sprinted away. 

When he looked back with what appeared to be an invitation to chase, Kavik lifted himself from the ground and trotted towards Alsek. He could easily catch him, but he wanted this to be more fun for the pup, so he slowed his steps and pretended to just barely reach him, playfully snapping at the air behind him.
