We all know how unstable he can get sometimes, and…”“What are you talking about?” Hiram asks, heading to the door. “Hu is right here with me,” he protests as he knocks on the door. “Hu!” He calls out, then he gets the automated reply.“Hello Hiram, Ginger and I are fine. How are you?”Hollis sighs over the phone. “Then explain why he was caught in New York and is being transported back to the pack by the general in charge.”Hiram’s heartbeat drops at once, and it dawns on him he had been fooled.
