However, the wolf, not knowing Peter, acted on its instincts and started to rush towards him. Realizing the danger in a flash, Katie quickly stepped in front of Peter, ready to protect him. Miraculously, the wolf stopped its charge right before reaching them, avoiding a confrontation at the very last moment.
Katie’s sudden intervention, coupled with the visible relief on her face, seemed to communicate to the wolf that Peter was not a threat but a potential ally. With a subtle change in its stance, the wolf turned away, suggesting that both Katie and Peter should follow its lead.
