colt wanted to swat the impudent little whelp away.
he tensed but did not otherwise react, staying silent until the wisewoman's voice sounded again in explanation. gingerly he climbed to his feet, swaying once in the snow and then collecting himself. "reckon i should be off. thank yew again."
for a moment that lasted a handful of seconds longer than it should have, he met the valewolf's soft yet knowing eyes, dipped his head to her and the boy, and turned, starting a shuffle off into the trees that surrounded the border where he'd lain.
