Chapter 23

“What I gave you was a snack. The closer you come to shifting, the more calories you burn and once you shift your metabolism is changed forever.”

“You’re telling me that there are no fat loup-garou.”

“Thank you for keeping me from putting my foot into my mouth! I’ll take this tray down to the kitchen if you tell me where it is. I’m almost afraid to ask what’s for dinner.”
