Bring the Wolves Down

a short story about a village that believes wolves instead of women



The boy cried “wolf!” and the villagers came to his aid, although the beast was nowhere to be seen.

The girl cried “wolf!” and the villagers came to tell her that surely it was just a dog, and anyhow, she shouldn't walk around with tattered clothes and bloody bite marks all over her--that kind of behaviour will bring the wolves down on you.
