While Grackle couldn't fathom the sea spirit's innermost thoughts, Coraline's assertion held true; not even a hint of carnal desire sullied even the shadowy recesses of the she-wolf's mind. Could a snake dare aspire to court a deity, after all? It was unimaginable. For now, Grackle merely stood there, entranced- a tender whelp beholding the breathtaking splendor of sunset for the very first time.
And then the nymph graced her with a voice, one that sent waves of warmth cascading through Grackle's ears and her heart dancing in a way she had never experienced before. It wasn't the frenzied beat of adrenaline in the heat of a hunt nor the savage ecstasy of rending flesh, but something altogether new. Grackle had always fancied herself brave, relishing fights with a sadistic grin etched on her muzzle, but in the presence of this stranger, she realized her true timidity.
As Grackle came to the disheartening realization that the hare had vanished during her brief moment of distraction, her stomach emitted a low growl, an embarrassing reminder of her hunger. But oddly, she didn't mind. The presence of this figure seemed to have sated her appetite for now. Perhaps this was a more profound starvation, one she hadn't known she harbored, that had been temporarily appeased.
Grackle couldn't deny that it had been an eternity since she had last laid eyes on one of her own kind, and the countless solitary nights she had spent roaming this region now felt much lonelier. The impending solitude loomed, and she knew that soon, she would once again be engulfed by isolation. So, for this fleeting moment, she decided to savor the company.

I'm sorry, miss, I didn't realize I was intruding upon your hunting grounds,Grackle's penchant for prolonged eye contact was a habit she had never broken, stemming from her pup days. Usually, it held no particular meaning, but she was subconsciously aware of the power it conveyed. The power that could make others wither beneath her piercing gaze. However, she had never been on the receiving end before. Was this how others felt when facing her? Grackle's adder-like eyes fell to the ground before her, where the rabbit had waited only a moment ago.

Am I past repair?
