Morning negotiations (4)

James sat in a chair next to George and did his best to ignore the fact that Talia was sitting on Damon's lap.

He saw Talia wiggling to stand up, but the Alpha held her firmly, and after some struggle, she gave up with a huff and looked at James apologetically.

James realized that despite Alpha Damon having Talia on his lap, the atmosphere was solemn.

"Why are we here?", James asked, unable to hold it in.

Damon responded. "After last night, I expect that your father will retaliate. I believe that all of us in the room want to minimize the damage."

James pursed his lips when he realized that Damon wanted help. James was looking forward to the next few days of playing, but after only one day of fun, he was back in this study and troubled expressions told him that this will take more effort to settle than just sending an email in George's name.
