Chapter 24: Tension, Sexual and Otherwise

By the time Greg had cleaned the various wounds, including giving Freddy three stitches, I was back into human form, dressed, and ready to get to the bottom of this.

I pace around the room for a bit, and everyone not involved kind of drifts away without me having to say anything. I suppose my body language was pretty clear on that front, at least. This isn’t a trial, and it isn’t a show. I don’t need an audience. I just need to get to the bottom of all of this.

“So talk,” I say. “What was that all about?” They are both averting their eyes. “I didn’t think I’d be kicking anyone out of the pack, but if you two can’t get along, one of you has to go. I’m hoping this isn’t that big of a deal, but I’m ready to file the paperwork if that’s what it takes.”

Great threat, Em. Nothing puts the fear of god in people like threatening to file paperwork.
