Chapter 27 : Sworn Enemy

I remained in place as Marcus ordered his guards to have Gregor and Tessa brought back in. I wondered what they thought was going to happen.
We waited the full three hours out. We didn’t want them to think that we had given in so quickly. And we also didn’t want them to think that we had reached some kind of easy resolution.
It had just been better to make sure that we just stayed the entire wait time out, and then we called them back.
It also gave Ben a good amount of time to make headway with his plan. They also probably wouldn’t notice that he was gone. After a three hour debate, the rational thing to conclude would be that someone needed to see something being done around the pack.
But we weren’t going to give them that long to notice his absence in any case.
