Why not? [It seemed like the first thing Roddy would do. Had done, in fact, if talking it over with his father was the same thing. Of course, he'd forgotten about the sun down bit.] I'll have to call my dad and tell him I'll be home late. We can't let him know what happened, though, or he'll get pissed and probably try to go after the werewolf that attacked me.

[And that...wouldn't work out well. His father was protective of him, but he was a reinigen, too, and there was no way a rat was going to win a fight against a wolf.]
