Broken Boulder haven't seen you much of late

If it had not been for the man's sound of greeting, Sakina may have fallen asleep and not noticed the hulking figure at all. The wind was stale, he would not have picked up the predators scent. Truly, it would have only taken a shake from the big man and the yearlings life would be finished. 

The coydog was lucky today.

Quickly he raised his head, eyes widening ever so slightly in surprise until he fixed the intruder with a steely gaze. This time however it was a little harder to hide his fear, the man was twice the size of his mother's mate. Muscles ripped beneath a red coat. And yet, this one did not have the look of a barbarian such as the black-and-tan thing. This one seemed almost intelligent.

"How long did you stare, blueeyes?"
