Chapter 30

Gabby strode into the Animal Instincts clinic ten minutes before her shift and stopped dead in her tracks.

The Battleaxes, along with Flynn, Brent, and Avery, were all at the front desk chatting. Damn. If Flynn's mother and aunts were here before opening, something was going on. Not good.

She eyed Flynn in a silent question, but he shrugged one wide shoulder and gave her an I-know-nothing look.

"Gabby, just the girl we wanted to see." Marie slung her arm around Gabby's shoulders, causing strands of Marie's short dark bob to poke Gabby's eye.

Double damn with oh shit on top. Most of the town knew to take off sprinting when the Battleaxes headed their way. The women meddled. A lot. Not only as a hobby, but a life mission. Rarely was Gabby bothered by their appearance, though. It was an infrequent day in hell when they saw fit to screw with her. Good girl and all.

"Um, okay. What can I help you with?"
