The box set down again behind him on the desk, Tao didn't flinch. Packless. He was pretty sure there was a name for that. He knew other packs disliked it. Immensely. He must have been raised without a pack completely to not even think there would be rules to be wary of.

Just leave, but I don't think your chances are good. You can wait for the local pack to claim you and most likely kill you. Or you can ask for sanctuary from the Master. I'd give it some consideration." He glanced to the chair again.
