A few moments of observation was all he needed to decide if the birds were worth pursuing. The seagulls flapped and cawed above him, and a few of them circled around, but their numbers were small. If one of them had found anything substantial, the large birds would have swarmed in like crows to carrion.
Marlow's steadfast stare faltered, his bright amber eyes drifting down to ground in mild disappointment. The male would have to work for his fill and track down a meal on his own. Or maybe not? Nostril's tingled at the faint scent of lavender which was carried to him on the sea breeze. Glancing behind him, he was surprised to spot another wolf approaching him from a couple of yards away. The sea wolf eyed the smaller female curiously, taking in her soaking sand and slate-black fur and ocean-blue eyes.
Dark ears pricked at her question. "I was hoping for something more substantial." He replied neutrally, turning then to cast his gaze over a pair of squabbling sea lions a few metres away. "You know this island well?" Marlow asked with a lift of one brow and small half-smile. Not many wolves would swim to an island simply for the sake of it. Only those in the know would be aware of the treasures it could offer.
