Shining forest green eyes pierce my heart. Thick ebony fur bristles and a deep warning growl vibrates from the animal’s chest. I step closer still. The growl increases in volume and his lips pull back to reveal gleaming white teeth and a blood red tongue lashes across them as if tasting my preordained death.
My mind screams at me to run but my body’s only response is to step closer. I know it doesn’t make sense but I feel no fear, even as the blood lust settles into the creature’s eyes. The wolf’s muscles tense as he prepares to spring and I close my eyes. With one last step, I move forward to finally end all the pain.
