The white wolf seems frustrated as if just figuring out there are things in this world not even she can do. I could laugh at her but maybe today I'm feeling generous. When I come into view, she gives me an intense stare that's probably supposed to intimidate me but I feel only anticipation of something to come rippling through my skin. I might just get that fight I was looking for after all but first I'll try peaceful words. If we can meet on solid ground, I won't have any problem relieving her burden and helping her get it home but if things don't go my way, I'm getting fed tonight, one way or another.
She looks ready to fight and my lips twitch, fighting the urge to smirk in amusement. She's facing the monster in the dark tonight and doesn't even know it. At my offer though, she straightens, giving me an answering smirk as she calls me helpful. I nod my head in acknowledgement, glancing once more toward the steadily pouring blood coming from the body's neck. Such a waste. She wags her tail as I name a price, her lips smiling at me as she asks for my price. I tilt my head, meeting her gaze evenly.
"Sanctuary and freedom is all I ask. For my mate and I. We have been loners for a long time because most packs cannot handle our ways but I have a feeling you could. They would restrict my diet and deny us our nature. I ask for freedom to hunt, away from the pack lands, of course. I wouldn't take the life of one protected by you or yours."
I wait patient for her reply, watching her closely as she sits to hear me out as if this were a conversation between two friendly strangers. My icy blue gaze is piercing, watching for any wrong moves. So far she's playing her cards right but I'm still a predator and right now, I'm still being denied my prey.
