Dhiate's stormy eyes widened as she came closer. After she reached a certain point, his eyes hardened and his face wrinkled in the beginnings of a snarl. He didn't like people coming close, who knew what they'd do? Who knew what they intended? He crouched in a defensive position. He was literally becoming those weak creatures huddled in the corner. He was becoming the very thing he hated. He jumped almost a foot in the air from shock when he felt her cold nose against his slight hip. She was touching him! The poor wolf's face became even more contorted as a rasp escaped his lips.
Then it all faded. His delicate face became smooth, became shocked. She was offering to help him? He who was a stranger, a weak thing that couldn't fend for himself? It almost brought tears to his eyes. As it was, his entire position relaxed, and his figure was more pronounced. The sleek fur, the dainty paws, slender legs, plumy tail. The longer you looked, the more feminine he became. Dhiate lowered his head and looked up through dark lashes. This was the most thanks he could give.
Dhiate didn't even attempt to hide the long strings of saliva that dripped from his milky white chin. It had been almost two weeks since he had smelled fresh meat like this. He could hardly refrain from lunging ravenously. Could hardly stop himself from snatching the carcass from her jaws like a wild beast. As it was, when she finally let go of the delicious meal, he could contain himself no longer. He shook with excitement as he gorged himself on the furry squirrel. He looked up and paused as she spoke. A confused look came to his face. Religion? Deity? These words meant nothing to him.
