I kept getting interrupted while writing this post -.-

She felt the ground shifting beneath her paws, the water churning furiously with the sudden pressure. It was slick and thin but she couldn’t sink her claws in the ice without it completely falling into itself. Panic began to freeze her limbs and quicken the pace of her heart. Ever frantically looked in between the trees for her mate, eyes wide with fear. How could she swim with a broken wrist? The thought made her breath come out in a gasp.
Then she saw him, standing like a knight at the edge of the frost. He was breathing hard and raspy but it didn’t even take him a minute to figure out what had happened. She could see his expression working and she tried not to yelp out in fright. With the weight of both of them, the ice would surely break. The girl begged with her expression for help, and for him to think logically.
But Ezra came, sprinting alarmingly towards her. Ever shook her head, frightened, until he came close. His scent was enough to calm her down. She couldn’t help let out a pained bark when her mate grabbed her uninjured wrist with his teeth. Suddenly, Ever was skidding across the frozen surface and falling on her side in the direction away from where the crack was starting. Her fur was already spiked with frost and she winced as the ice parted to ground.
It took her only a second to regain her breath and realize her mate was still in danger. A sickening crack sounded as soon as she was back on her paws. She opened her maw to cry out but it was cut short when she started back out onto the frozen body of water.
Her body shook with fear as it passed over the unstable surface for a second time. Once Ever was a safe distance from the breakage, she trotted limply towards Ezra. Grabbing onto his paw, his fur, his ear, anything she could get a hold of to try to drag him from the black water. She yanked, ignoring the seething pain in her teeth from the weight and managed to get one of his back legs out. The girl let the man claw the rest of the way out himself while she scrabbled to get a hold on solid ground. With another shove, they both skidded out and into safety where the silver hybrid collapsed in the black male’s lap, panting into the cold morning air.
