Theron took deep breaths, his body shuddering under the weight of everything he had been through today. He had just been healed back to his full strength, but now he suddenly felt depleted a bit.
The instant he relaxed just the slightest bit, he almost tipped over. He was ready to catch himself, but he surprisingly didn't have to.
The Alpha caught him, its large head nudging him back upright. But even as it did so, they both looked back at the same time to see a hand within a shadow retreating.
An awkward sound from a clearing throat was heard.
"It… uh… seems I've been caught."
The melodic voice of Sadie came from the darkness. Theron didn't seem surprised, as though he had known that she had been there the entire time.
The Alpha didn't know, though, and had messed up the timing of things.
