Bab 27: Into the Mouth of the Wolf

Paul - His villa

(“Into the mouth of the wolf” is a Romanian saying which has the same meaning as “Into the belly of the beast”.)

After a long day at the office and countless mind-numbing meetings, I pull up in front of my house's driveway. People have already begun to flow through the gates. I have to suck it up and prepare myself since the worst meeting of all is yet to come.

I'm getting a headache as I go through the wolf swarm. Handshakes, hugs, and back pats are all part of the ritual anytime we meet outside of the real world. Although many of them work for my firm, we maintain a professional atmosphere in the downtown office building.
