Thade remembered naps differently than they were now. He used to enjoy them, even insist on them, but sleeping these days required a level of peace that the boy simply did not have.
He jerked awake at the soft sound, even if under normal circumstances — with the current drumming of a steady shower — he wouldn’t have heard the wolf. He scanned through the rain, uncertain if he had imagined the noise or not, and froze when he noticed the hooded wolf looming nearby.
The lost prince got slowly to his feet and pressed his hindquarters into the stone wall protecting him; now trapping him. He glanced out into the rain, where he knew he must run, and hesitated. He looked back at the shadowy figure, and waited to see the move it made.
