Will paused, and looked up at Tereza. "I...suppose it would be only fair. But are you alright?"

"I went... a little deep during the chase. It's just taking longer to get... balanced again. You're safe," she says, smiling.

"I mean," Will said, carefully. "Couldn't you....compromise? You wouldn't have to eat what you caught. Human hunters don't just eat right in the middle of the field; they bring their prize bucks back home. Maybe the wolf would...accept a trade-off, there?"

"No offense, but the last thing that smelled like you that I chased tried to kill me. And while I don't think you'd do the same, I'm not sure I could make her see reason once she gets on the scent. That's part of the problem. I let her have full control."
