Things went fast. Loki spared half a thought to put out the fire before anything else caught. He hated to deny it food and freedom, but it couldn't be helped and there was no time to be gentle about it either.
He had experience with wolves. His son was a wolf. Fenrir would have dwarved the wolf not jumping at him. He wondered why the other one had not made his shape larger, if he could shift into any animal he liked. Or did he have to stick to their natural characteristics? If so, good to know.
He avoided the snapping teeth and buried his hand in the soft fur at the wolf's throat to keep it at a distance. With his free hand, he sharply smacked the animal's sensitive nose.
