Opening the Cage
“She thought she was too tired, too sore.
Too old.
She was wrong.
Canyon headed to the big truck, shifted back into his man-self and opened it up, getting out clothes and food and talking and laughing and… And Wend was going over there close to it.
Near the truck.
Trucks were bad.

Canyon turned, frowning when he saw her. “No, baby girl. You have to come on. It will be warm in there. There’re blankets.”
No. No, she was... never getting in one of those again. She would stay.
“Come on, Riana. Please. Just come look and sniff.”
She settled into the leaves, harrumphing. Those were loud, scary. Bad. Bad things. Wend picked his way over, snuffling at her. Laughing at her. She growled low, warning him away. Laughing at her. Those things were bad! Those things took wolves to Bad Places!
Canyon laughed. “They can take us to good places, too. Depends on who’s driving.”
She put her tail over her nose, ignoring them.MoreLess
