After that piece of devastating news, I could not stop my thoughts from running wild. There were simply too many things that could go wrong.
"Is it possible for the meeting to be done online, with the help of technology?" I asked hopefully. "You guys can try teleconferencing. That way, the both of you can still remain in Fangborne."
Blaise laughed uproariously. "Oh goddess, I would love nothing better. Damon, can you imagine us simply muting Alpha Thorton once we got tired of his bullshit? It would make my day. We won't even need a week in this case; we can settle everything tomorrow."
"Are you that eager to hear Alpha Thorton screaming in your ear?" Damon raised an eyebrow, his lips briefly quivering in amusement. "I would simply not pay for an internet connection."
Sadly, whatever joy he felt from my comment was short-lived; grim solemnity replaced the amusement on his face.
