Freya's little legs carried her faster than everyone around her. She didn't give it a thought.She was just too engrossed , too lost in her chase.
Her breath came out sharp, her eyes watering from the speed as twigs whipped at her cheeks.But she didn't care or notice. She was just running blind, following Cerb's scent.
Her heartbeat raced in her ears.But she was one to take any challenge head on ( guess where she got that from). There was definitely no stopping till she caught Cerbs and taught him a good lesson… kissing him, hugging him and then forcing him to give her a ride back.
"Cerbs!" she howled, her small voice breathless, breaking into the trees. "Wait for me!"
She darted around a thick trunk, then another, then another…until suddenly, the sound of heavy paws she was chasing… was gone… the scent vanished abruptly.
Freya froze.
