Stone Circle Let it go

Steph had not been out of the den in a couple days now. Not since returning from her encounter of the scary male wolf. But, curiosity would not allow her to stay couped up forever.

It was mid-day, and her head finally popped out of the den, looking around to see if the male was there. He wasn't, though neither was anyone else. That suited her just fine. She walked a few feet and sat back on her haunches, soaking up the warmth of the sun. There was a crisp in the air that she hadn't remembered before, and she couldn't decide if she liked it or not. But, with the sun out, she didn't feel bad. 

She looked around, a little bored, but not feeling adventurous enough to explore beyond the den area. The young pup spotted a stick and bounded over to it. She picked it up and pranced around with it, as if she had gotten a prize.
