Chapter 24: Trauma

Jude hadn't been exaggerating; in the short ride, he'd taken them at least three miles away from where they had started.

"I know, logically, that I dragged us both here and egged you on…but I'm blaming you for this."

"That seems fair. I can always transform back if you want."

"No, no, we're enjoying the great outdoors. However, if we are not back to the car by sundown, I will most likely have a panic attack, so take that as you will."

"We've still got at least four hours until then, don't worry."

"Well, what if we get lost?"

"We won't. Not only do I know this forest like the back of my hand, but I can still pick up our scent from earlier."

"What do I smell like? And don't say coffee again."

Jude pauses.

"Oh god, that bad?"

"No, I'm just not sure how creepy I want to sound here."

Grayson gives him a look.
