Have you any idea how easily Team Wolf could find you in that situation? It would be like dangling a dead rat right in front of a hippogriff's nose!" An easy kill, in other words. They wouldn't stand a chance, and probably none of the other kids who might be sharing a house with them would either. "Sitting ducks," finished Jez, staring at Nate.
