"The drink isn't helping, is it?" Phil questioned.

"I needed it-I guess, but I need to head back now."

I dropped the glass back on the table, noticing how shaky and unsteady my hands were. Phil didn't miss that either.

"There is another way, you know," he said, and I wasn't entirely sure what he meant. "A way to overcome the addiction-one that would be less... troubling."

"What are you trying to say?"

"What I'm trying to say is that you'll need doses of wolfsbane to survive this. You'd have to start over-but this time, with each dose, you'd gradually reduce your intake, letting your body adjust to smaller portions. Then, you'd slowly begin skipping days between doses. Eventually, you wouldn't depend on it as much, and stopping would be easier than just quitting abruptly."

I was well aware I sounded like a jerk, but I couldn't help it. The music blasting from the speaker was normally easy to ignore, blending into the background noise, but this time, it was too loud. The colored bulbs were too bright, and my head pounded.
