IN HER OWN FOOTSTEPS
Chapter 12. Reunited.
On the deck of the Sea She-Wolf, Mary luxuriated on the feel of the sea spray and the sun over her bare breasts.
It had been surprisingly smooth. Wolf had dragged Hunter's limp carcass out of the window. Taking a page out of Hunter's book, they had used a bear claw in his cabinet to simulate a bear attack.
His professional insurance had done the rest. As he was deemed to have been killed (and partially eaten) by a wild predator, she had been entitled to a generous compensation that allowed her to buy the yacht and leave the Forest and village behind.
But there was something different about Wolf now. Ever since he had tasted Hunter's blood. He was now quite rougher than he used to be. When he was walking his tongue over her, there was a strange urgency about him, with an odd glint in his eye. She began to feel afraid of him.
Chapter 13. Mistress of her fate.
Mary walked into the pet shop with a purposeful stride. The pet shop owner greeted her with distaste, as this customer was wearing a grey fur waistcoat and shorts.
-"Good morning, I was looking for a dog to be a guard in a yacht. I need a large one, loyal and obedient, and a strong swimmer. What would you recommend?"
-"That would depend on the size of the yacht, of course, and the type of travel in hot or cold climates. Is it the first time you have one?"
-"No, it would not be my first animal... companion. What happened to my last one was a very tragic accident. It was a bit too... independent and ended up drowning. I need a more docile... companion."
-"It seems to be your lucky day, we just received a litter of two-month old Great Danes."
-"That sounds just perfect. I'll take the largest male of the litter."
