CHAPTER FOUR

Early the next morning I woke up and found Irving dressed and reading from his book again. I sat down across from him on the couch. “Are you up to a trip to the pub?” he asked as he put a bookmark in to mark his page.

“I was about to ask you the same thing,” I said with a smile. “I need to scrub the floors for them before the rest of the town comes to eat.”

He put his book away and walked towards the door. I followed him and realized I was still wearing his clothes. “Um…”

He smiled. “Just tie the back of the shirt up and you’ll look fine. No one will notice.”

I didn’t believe him, but I didn’t feel like getting my clothes out and trying to make an outfit. Besides I’d be cleaning and eating at the pub before anyone else came around so no one would see me except the owner and his wife.

I followed him out of the house as I tied a knot in the back of his shirt and rolled up the sweat pants. We walked through the empty town and stopped as the Hunter stepped in front of us. “Where were you two last night?” he asked suspiciously.

Irving smiled. “In my room.”

The Hunter looked from Irving’s smiling face to my borrowed clothes and nodded his head once. “I see. You’re free to go.”

“How kind of you,” I said with a bitter voice.

Irving pulled me up the steps of the pub by the arm. I jerked my arm from his hold and waited until the Hunter was down the street. “You knew he would ask about our location. That’s why you wanted me to wear this.”

Irving nodded his head. “Yes, it worked, didn’t it?”

I sighed. “Yes, but from now on I’d appreciate it if you told me your plans.”

Irving opened the door and we walked into the empty pub. Irving sat at the bar while I walked to the back and grabbed the cleaning supplies. Irving ordered both of our food as I cleaned quickly.

“The townspeople seem on edge,” the pub owner said conversationally.

Irving looked outside and noticed the dark circles under most of the people’s eyes who walked by. “You’re right. They must have been worried about the werewolf showing up last night.”

I smiled and then bit my lip to hide it. “I know I was worried,” I said as seriously as I could. Irving smiled at me and then the owner set our ale on the bar. I put away the cleaning supplies, having finished cleaning the floors already, and sipped at my drink. Even with the Hunter so close, I wasn’t afraid.

I leaned forward and whispered, “You know we have to figure out our plan soon, right?”

Irving nodded his head as he drank from his mug. “Yes, we’ll discuss it tonight.”

I understood his worry about others hearing us and nodded my head. “Fine.”

We ate our food and then walked through the town and towards the woods.

We were stopped as soon as we entered the leafy cover by two townsmen.
