““Hunter, Lizzie’s not even on our team!” Raven shouted after him. “Aw, he’s a big sweetie pie,” said Maddie. “A big, sugary banana slice of pie, cutie-sweetie Hunter.” A wolf ate Maddie’s basket in one toothy bite. Maddie giggled. Ashlynn was on her hands and knees, talking to a wolf. He howled back, nodding and rolling his eyes as if complaining about something in wolf language. She took a pastry from her basket and fed it to him on her palm.””
