Fox's Glade I'm biting my nails

Nunataq was smart enough to pick up the warning tone in the loner's voice and she broke the eye contact by turning her head sideways and taking her time to watch the trees to her left. Now and then the girl would steal some quick looks in the forbidden direction, testing the waters and in order to find out, whether the she-wolf had resumed her walk again. Eventually (some 30 seconds later; inexplainably time flowed slower for Nuna, because she managed to pack action and something useful in almost every milisecond) she grew tired of the unnatural position her body was in and she decided to expand her ruse, by walking over to the said trees and beginning to thoroughly inspect the ground that was covered by the leaves. There was nothing particularly interesting, but she was very good at pretending that the opposite party had lost all of its charm.
