Wild Bobcat Approaches A Woman, and She Decides to Follow(1)
She considered turning back. But which way was back? She’d followed the bobcat through twists and turns, over logs and through thick bushes. Everything looked the same now.
Her throat tightened. This was how people got lost. One wrong move, one careless moment—and the forest became a maze.

Claire clenched her fists and exhaled slowly. She wasn’t lost—not yet. If she stayed aware of her surroundings, she could find her way back later.
