Scarlet hissed around the pain as she crawled through a barrier of thorns. The thorns snagged on her hood, nearly ripping it.
As she finally got out, she was greeted by the warm, familiar gaze of Wolf, the street fighter she met at the Riuex Tavern over two weeks ago. She had been looking for her grandmother, taken by a group of Lunars.
She still remembered that Wolf had willingly gave her over to the enemy, turning against her and siding with his pack, loosing her trust.
She hissed in disgust and turned the other way, by he was there, grabbing her wrist.
Scarlet growled and turned away, but Wolf pulled her closer and stared right into her eyes, making Scarlet squirm uncomfortably.
"Scarlet..." Wolf started quietly, "Please forgive me, I had to do what I had to do.." He looked at her, his gaze full of regret.
"Yeah, and do you see where that left you?" Scarlet huffed quietly, "I don't know how I can believe you." She finished boldly.
Wolf pulled her even closer and whispered into her hair, "Please?"
Scarlet sighed and looked down. "I don't know....Today has been an off day..I'll think about it..."
"Good." Wolf answered, his voice full of relief, "You should sleep, I'll make sure nothing harms you."
Scarlet nodded and yawned. She curled up and pulled her good over her head. She felt Wolf settle down beside her and murmur, "Goodnight, Scar."
