Chris carried me into the manor house and Greylock led us upstairs. The crowd tried to follow, but Duncan provided cover at the top of the stairs.
He stretched his arms out on either side and smiled at the company. “We’re not selling tickets at this moment, ladies and gentlemen, but we’ll be sure to entertain you on the next little mishap.”
I couldn’t hear the replies because Chris carried me into our bedroom and shut the door behind us with his foot. Greylock walked up to the side of the bed and Chris moved to the other side where he set me on the covers.
Greylock scooted a chair close to the side of the bed and took a seat. He lay his cane on the sheets between us and set a hand on my shoulder. “Focus, Alexandra. Imagine your human form and will the wild out of your mind.”
