Lost Creek Hollow Luck is my middle name

If Merlin had known that he had been mistaken for a beautiful lady, he would have felt both flattered (because you do not hear that you are handsome every day) and a bit embarrassed (Girls? EWWWW...!!! I am a manly man!!!). Since he did not, he continued about his business, until approaching footsteps alerted him about the presence of another wolf. 

Soon the pale ghost came in the periphery of his vision, he straightened himself to look taller and regarded the other quietly, save for a single bark to tell - brief and concise - Hey, who are you?!
