Lester strolled towards his lover and quirked an eyebrow. “What are we dealing with?” Lester's head shot up as a howl sounded in the distance. His nostrils twitched and he took a step towards the sound.

A smile flickered across Nick's face as he approached Lester. He put a hand on Lester's arm and almost jumped when his lover swung around and snarled at him. “James?”

The wild look faded in Lester's eyes as he shook his head. “Sorry, Nick.” His head swung back around as another howl sounded and he took a step towards it.

“Stay with me, James.”

Oh, no! Be a good puppy James. Sit, Stay!

I will admit I have been looking forward to an installment in this universe since this week's prompt was announced.

Nicely done as always.

Hee, I'm not sure James would appreciate being called a good puppy. Or being told to sit or stay ;)

It was too good a prompt not to play in the wolfverse and I'm becoming predicable on wolf prompts ;)

Thanks, glad you liked it.

Very nice - could take a rather angsty turn!

Thanks. Um, it could, couldn't it? I'm sure James wouldn't run away for long, anyway

Nicely measured tension - and those eerie howls......

I wonder what's next?

Glad you liked it.

Um, no idea, but I'm sure James wouldn't leave Nick.

Thanks, I do like playing in the wolfverse.

Yes, stay with Nick. No detours in the wilderness.

I'm sure Lester will stay with Nick... although the wilderness is looking/sounding very tempting to him. Thanks for reading.

Yes, stay with him, James! :-D

Don't worry, I'm sure James will stay with him or won't be gone long ;)

Don't worry, if James did go, he wouldn't leave Nick for long ;) Thanks for reading.

Very nice, but... can I say it? Lester remind me the dogs of Up. SQUIRREL!!! XD

An excellent prompt for this verse - a really atomospheric drabble.

It was a perfect wolfverse prompt. Glad you found it atmospheric and thanks for reading.
