Delaying the inevitable

Later that evening…

Damon was sitting in his office with a glass of whiskey in his hand and thinking about the talk he had with Caden and Maya after dinner.

They discussed the upcoming festival and the issue of Marcy.

The preparations for the festival were on schedule and increased security was already in effect, so they focused on discussing Marcy.

They decided to work on delaying her visit.

It was Maya's plan.

"Instead of telling her not to come, we will tell her WHEN to come."

Damon didn't like it, but he gestured to Maya to keep on talking.

"Two weeks.", Maya said. "We will tell Marcy that your schedule is packed and that you can't entertain her now, but in two weeks she can come, and you will make it up to her."

"You think Marcy and Alpha Edward will accept this two-week delay?", Damon asked.
