Collaboration Snippets: Snowbound sequel
🕑 Added 2020-11-25 13:41:00 +0000 UTCHey friends!
It's time for another collaboration snippet! This time it's for the one series I'm writing in collaboration that is actually not that focused on smut (I know, right!)! This is for the second chapter of the Snowbound little series that I'm writing with the amazing Fopfox in two different perspectives as an experiment.
It does require reading the first chapter (SoFurry | FurAffinity) to understand what's happening since this one is so focused on the plot, but for those that did... I hope you enjoy the little snippet of what's coming! This is going to be an eventful chapter!
-------------------
“Are you going to deny a wolf a chance at proving himself?” Sgen asked right away. Raakk had feared that he had heard the loud and sudden request. “You pushed so hard for him to become a hunter like us. He is no longer sick and he is an able male.”
Raakk glared at Sgen.
“No,” the alpha quickly said, opening a small growl. “He is clearly not ready, he is only just starting to learn trapping.”
“So? Trapping is what pups do. He has been trapping for days.”
“We have enough wolves for the hunt.”
“More wolves make for a better chance of catching good prey.”
Raakk’s growl grew louder. “It is not your place to decide when he is ready or not.”
Sgen did not seem fazed even by his more aggressive remark. In fact, the clever black wolf simply smiled before he responded.
“You are right, it is not. By tradition, it is the wolf that decides when he is ready to face the challenge. All you need to do is… let him join the hunt.”
The last few words Sgen spoke were significantly slowed down. Articulated and barely properly growled. Raakk took a second to understand why, but when he glanced over his shoulder, he saw it. Awlden’s ears were perked up with interest, for he had understood what Sgen had said in agreement to what he wanted. Raakk felt an urge to growl and attack Sgen for playing such tricks, but instead he knew he had to keep his cool. The alpha took a deep breath, his mind reeling in trying to figure out the best way to approach it.
“Alpha!” Awlden quickly said. Raakk turned to look at him, dreading what was coming. Sgen got exactly what he wanted. The little red wolf bowed his head respectfully and even lowered his ears. “Please let me join the hunt. I wish to prove myself!”
Raakk’s heart sank. Sgen’s smile grew only ever so slightly, the bits of his fang showing were screaming of triumph. With the little red wolf claiming that in front of everyone, Raakk knew he was backed into a corner just as well as Sgen did.
