Zak whined and knelt down in front of Holly. He wanted to show her that he meant her no harm. He kept his eyes on Jack, the small barking dog. If only that dog had taken the hint and rushed back to Holly like he was supposed to. Zak stayed kneeling to the ground,l wanting Holly to feel like she could go home safely. He couldn't shift in front of her. He looked down, forgetting that the clothes he had on was right underneath his paw. He scrapped them behind him, hoping she wouldn't find out his secret. He would be shunned, and she would possibly be killed. He couldn't have that.
