Her forehead creased in a frown.
“Look,” I admitted, “I need to get back to my territory. If you need a place to stay, you’re welcome to come with, but we do need to decide what to do with Bryce.”
Yes, do come with, Sierra 😀
Bryce is indeed a bit of an issue. I wonder what he’ll have to say when he wakes up.
“Can you keep him prisoner? Until he comes to his senses?’
An interesting request, but it makes sense.
“I would if I thought it would do any good. He’s only going to get angry and resentful at being locked up, and he’ll be all the more eager to run.”
Hm, good point.
“But he’s going to run anyways.”
Yes, probably, but if/when he does, we don’t want him to be even more eager to escape.
“Probably. He won’t believe me if I tell him about his buddies.” It doesn’t help that Lisa lied to him about Sierra.
Hm, yeah, you aren’t exactly the most trustworthy people from Bryce’s perspective.
“So what do we do?”
I was at a loss for an answer. I turned and called across the room, “Lisa!”
When all else fails… 🙂
