Yep, got my socks lined up ready to go. My poor toes have been covered too much lately. They deserve a pedicure once it warms up again.
Sunday morning should be right around the freezing mark. Glad I don't work Sundays!
Stay warm everyone!
It was no hardship to channel my snarky 'mom reaction' for that line😆
It's going to be hard on Sebastian to have his key players scattered. Sorta like trying to keep your eye on the ball when it's pitched at over 100mph. Yikes!
When I was two I somehow got a papercut on my eyeball. My mom said it took 3 nurses to hold me down while I screamed loud enough to wake the dead down in the morgue.
Reilly knew Sebastian hadn’t been kidding when he said everyone would be busy. Zev and Ben had sort of adopted Elijah as their new best friend. They made sure he felt welcomed and that he found his way around and got to wherever he needed to be.
It took a couple of days before Donovan figured out how to work with Elijah’s unique DNA, so there were a lot of visits to the makeshift office/lab he was working out of. Donovan had commandeered the smaller of the two kitchen areas at the lodge as
Yep, things are going to start moving rather swiftly. Boys are gonna hit the ground running in a chapter or two. (I'm working on getting the first drafts looking not so choppy and ragged. @Mrsgnomie will probably kill me.
Then they're smarter than the 55+ folks who complain 2 months after buying a 50 year old mobile home that they have to spend $3-$4k on a roof over.
Me: Did you have a home inspection done?
Them: No.

Nice start. I have a soft spot for anyone in a marching band. Former band Mom here. Countless events chaperoned. Two band trips, one cruise and one memorable jaunt to NYC.
Elijah is young, but he's legal. I never really decided on an age, 20? 21ish?
Adult guys can be 5'8". My husband was when we started dating. (He's shrunk to about 5'6", osteoporosis runs in his family) 🤭
Elijah can outwardly become an adolescent shifter, but he can't create a scent fir himself, so butt stink pills it is.
Sequel.... maybe.
I got myself confused while I was writing this chapter and the next.
Wayne and Sandi will only need to alter their scent a little, to help mask their little white lies. Hence the concoction that Reilly used to mask his scent. Donovan was able to alter the formula enough so that they won't smell like soggy doggy.
The only things that worked were oregano seeds, garlic, tea tree oil and grapefruit rind, of all things.
Rosalie chose the oregano/garlic combo to test. Wayne and Sandi can pick and choose what they go with.
Elijah needs to believably smell like an adolescent shifter, hence the butt stink and more to come in the next chapter. 🤪
