Trailing the Line

Sylvia:

I watched as his wolf began to circle me. I didn't let him get to my back. "Seth, listen to me, you have to calm down." Could grounding him help? I sent out a neutral and calming tether, but the second it made contact Seth growled and leapt towards me. I rolled to the side avoiding his teeth, his paw had made contact but thanks to Xain's extra shielding my skin wasn't as vulnerable. 

"I wouldn't do that if I was you. He's not in a mind to be calmed right now." I couldn't look at the watcher but I could picture his smug smile in my face. Why was he doing this? Up to this point he hadn't really tried to hurt me. "What will you do next?"
