Another Lion Enters
From the corner of my eye, I saw movement. Another lion approached but surprisingly lay down a few feet away.
It seemed uninterested, maybe even relaxed. ‘What’s this one up to?’ my husband wondered aloud. The second lion’s indifferent demeanor calmed us a bit, though the tension still crackled in the air.
Jake didn’t seem concerned and kept his focus on the lioness. ‘He’s got nerves of steel,’ someone murmured behind me.
