The question of the year went to Dan just now. Had he missed a lot? Only hell yes, and not all of it good. Their recent loss of Theo, the political upheaval in the Colorado pack and the losses in California...it all made her smile dim a little bit.
She had almost forgotten what Dan was like around women. Was it cruel of her that she found it refreshing to have back around? Honestly, she found it endearing and a nice change from the typical bravado the males of their kind tended to have. Dan and Rudy. Rudy. One more thing to tell him.
"Why don't you sit down?" She gestured towards the chair on the other side of her desk. "I'm making a fresh pot of coffee. Should be ready soon." It was her way of saying there was a lot to tell him.
