Chapter 38 Audrey

I shook Betty's hand gratefully, giving her a warm smile. "Thanks for that. I can't believe he had the nerve to show his face here after what he did to me."

Betty waved a dismissive hand in response. "Please, I've been waiting for a chance to put that pig in his place for ages." She rolled her eyes. "He's gotten far too comfortable cruising around and stirring up drama for far too long."

"And?" Tina breathed, leaning in closer. "Did he admit to being a jacka**"

"Are you kidding?" Betty laughed bitterly. "Of course not. No, he tried to make it seem like he was doing me some big favor by even sleeping with me at all. Since, you know... I'm only half-werewolf.
