Wolf

Orange eyes like tiny topaz crystals glisten as he watches the sun go down, fading into a sea-
like sky of yellow and orange.

Lost. He finds a howling lost cub. Two is stronger than one he thinks. And lightly clasps the 
delicate cub in his bloodstained teeth.

Shortly, after 8 weeks of starvation the wolf became extremely famished...

A few seconds later the young, oblivious pup looked up to find it was gazing into the now 
blood-thirsty, ravenous wolf’s once sparkling orange now wicked red eyes.

He will never forgive himself for what he did, but he will forget.
