Behind the mansion, deep into the woods where wolfsbane grew in abundance, which was about a kilometer and a half from the territory’s boundary, was an isolated house. It was a bungalow like the rest of the pack’s houses, painted in the same red and gray motif. The only difference was that the blinds were all drawn, and the outside was unkempt.

“Leave it,” I said. “The match will be over soon.”
