Eli's eyes widened as he stared at the shadowy figure with sharp glistening teeth. It's words rang out in his head and he felt something in his gut clench.
The figure slowly emerged from the shadows and Eli's eyes traced the being slowly.
He was tall, not as tall as Liam, but definitely tall. His legs were slender and stepped with unmatched grace, coated in caramelly orange fur. His tail was long and sleek, the same color as his legs with a white tip, and his ears were orange and black.
The man swept blonde hair out of his eyes as he slowly prowled closer to Eli, blue eyes fixated of the small quavering deer while he licked his teeth slowly... tauntingly.
"W-who are you?!" Eli finally managed to squeak out.
The man tilted his head and maintained a sickening grin "My name is Oliver... its a pleasure..." He had managed to get close enough to touch Eli, but simply leaned in uncomfortably close "...to meet you"
A shudder ran down Eli's spine as he stared into sharp blue eyes. This man was definitely a fox... there was no doubt in Eli's mind now.
"How do you know my name?" Still, Eli's voice was barely able to reach above a soft squeak.
"Hm... well I know a lot about you..." The fox began to pace around Eli until he was standing behind him. Oliver then leaned in so his face was directly next to Eli's "I know you're a rejected buck from a small herd by the river... I know you in 'love' with a wolf... and I know he's going to be the cause of your death... which might I add..." He stood up straight and moved so he could sit next to Eli and put a hand on his thigh "...is truly a shame... for someone so delicious..." He leaned over and slowly licked Eli's cheek, who was frozen in fear.
Eli gritted his teeth and held his breath before jumping up and screaming at the top of his lungs, Liam's name.
Of course, Oliver quickly covered his mouth and held him to his chest "You know what will happen don't you!?" A sadistic smile spread across his face "When you two finally seal the deal!? They'll come for you! You'll be dead and so will he!"
Oliver began to laugh, shaking as he did so. He began screeching with psychotic laughter, so badly that he dropped Eli, gripping his face as tears flowed down his smile ridden face.
Eli screamed for Liam again, but Oliver just kept on laughing and clawing into his own skin "He'll tear you apart or be killed himself!! And I will enjoy EVERY MOMENT OF YOUR SCREAMS!"
He stopped laughing and began to stalk closer, tilting his head so far his neck made a cracking noise. His voice, now much softer and must more unsettling, was now the only noise, as Eli had given up screaming for his wolf. "You are going to be torn limb from limb... and he'll devour you... they'll throwout your bones... and I'll string you into a necklace!"
Eli clenched his eyes shut and began to sob, he was so scared... so alone.
Until a very familiar growl sounded from the tree line.
