Although he was completely drenched, the grey male was still a giant of a wolf. Noah had just hauled himself up out of an icy pond and holding a plump adult beaver by the throat. His lip was bleeding from where the beaver had struck just before it died. Waiting all day for the blasted thing to surface for air in the small hole in the ice had wore on his patience but now it was all worth it. The beaver would make a fine gift for a friend who was expecting pups.

Leaving the pond with a much larger hole after crashing through after the elusive prey, Noah shook his coat free of as much water as possible and walked up the bank with his prize. He planned to carry it back to the dilapidated little log hut he had claimed for himself and take a well deserved nap. It wouldn’t hurt to try and dry off and warm up. Although as a rule he avoided shifting, he considered making an exception. It would be nice to get a fire going and he could not very well do that with four paws and no hands. Besides, he wanted to smoke the meat and dry the pelt. He decided to wait until he got back to the hut. For now, it was warmer to stay closer to the ground and out of the wind.
