Secret Infatuation
I locked eyes with the red wolf, my stance widening, and the tension in the air thickened.
Alex stepped closer to the red wolf, placing a hand on its back. “Hey, it’s okay,” he murmured softly, his voice soothing. “I think he’s just trying to show he’s not a threat.”
The red wolf hesitated, its ears flicking back, and it glanced at Alex. My wolf took the opportunity to inch closer, his movements slow and deliberate to avoid provoking another reaction.
When I was just a few feet away, I lowered myself onto my belly, bowing my head in submission. My wolf wanted Alex to understand that he was safe, that no harm would come to him as long as I was near.
