The look in her eyes made it painfully obvious she didn’t think the two of them could defend the land against an entire pack of angry werewolves but she wisely chose not to say anything. All she did was nod as she picked up her phone and began to text furiously. After some ten to fifteen minutes of messages flying back and forth, she sighed and looked up at him. “Two hours. But now they want you, me, your mom, and Sofie to turn ourselves in. I agreed but only to buy us time. I hope you have a plan.”<br/><br/>The rest of the ride to his mother’s place was silent. Amaris kept turning things over and over in her head, trying to figure out a way to end this relatively peacefully, without anyone getting seriously injured or even dying. Eventually she laced her fingers with his and rested her head on his shoulder as he drove. She had never slid back to her side of the bench seat. His presence, even his scent, was soothing to her.<br/><br/>She slid from the truck when they pulled up. A sense of relief washed over her as she saw his mother come out of the front door. At least Rex was keeping his promise so far.<br/><br/>“I’m going to go sniff around and see what I can find..” The end of her sentence trailed off. Not quite a sentence and not quite a question. Just leaving things open to see what he felt comfortable doing.
