17 Drake Wood

Red POV.

As I made my way cautiously forward to investigate the source of the howl, my entire body began to quake. When I needed to create a small hole in a leaf, I made sure that my movements were as silent as possible to avoid making the situation any more dangerous.

Where did that hollering sound originate? I do not doubt that it was nearby! While I was looking through the narrow opening, I questioned myself. I don't see any movement, but I have a distinct impression that someone is hiding outside.

"grr ..."

I concentrated all my attention on the thick section of the forest because that was where I sensed a tremendous threat. And before I know it, I'm gasping in surprise as I catch sight of a pair of blue eyes staring in my direction.
