Word Count → 306 :: Halcyon Mtns., Pictou Falls
It was rare for Cerberus to be found in his lupus form, but since he’d remained in it during his encounter with the funny male from yesterday, he decided to continue on in it as he was ready to hunt again anyway. At the base of the falls, Cerberus stood with his snout pointed toward the water, mismatched eyes alert and scanning for any sign of movement. Though he didn’t mind fish, they certainly weren’t his favorite; why eat fish when you could have an elk? But for some reason, his appetite wasn’t entirely there today, and a sea-food dinner was fine enough for him.
Tail swishing mischievously behind him, Ceri’s breath halted in his throat as he spotted a fish swimming his way. He waited…and waited…and waited…until finally he leapt into the water, jaws agape and aimed for the fish. There was a violent splash before a soaked Cerberus trotted back onto the shore with the flopping creature in his mouth. With a quick tightening of his jaws, he killed the wriggling thing and then dropped it on the ground, water drizzling off his pelt as he lowered his head to eat.
Though his fur was messy enough when dry, seeing Cerberus wet was purely comical, as his fur splayed out in various directions after a quick shake. But he didn’t mind. Today had been a quiet day, void of any company. And though he felt lonely at times, more often he felt purely content. He had grown accustomed to the belief that he didn’t need someone else to make him happy, and he could survive just fine as a lone wolf. Today would simply be another day, carried on like any other. Finishing off his meal, Cerberus lifted his head and ran his pink tongue over blood-stained lips, his tail wagging all the while.
