After a lot of struggles, Oliver finally said, "Okay"
I bent ahead as my face sared in fake pain so this sudden attack of mine did not erase my facade. My voice was low, so only Oliver could hear it. "Weren't you supporting John? It would be nice that you know your sweet little group is on the red mark for Channing. Plus, your commander Diana is stuck in the enemy village for more than a day now. If you expect to bring her back, you better behave and apologise. Without Channing here who knows what she was suffering there, helplessly"
Oliver's eyes widened and I finally let him go. He got up and dusted his clothes and spoke while his eyes fixated on the ground in rage. "We will patrol the borders through the night as an apology about our disrespect."
I gave a polite smile, "Oh you don't have to patrol the night, I am not so cruel tyrant who would simply keep you patrolling like so watchn while I do rest of the work"
Oliver turned on his heels and turned into his light brown wolf before racing off to the border. His group sent eyes to and proceeded to follow him. My attention was back to the remaining mbers and there were sceptical looks. I had ntioned about the ti they had followed John, and I just hoped I had not picked on so scab because I was pretty careful with my words.
"Are you okay, Selene?" Sam delegated the tension in the air towards my injuries and I winced as if on cue.
My palm waved in the air as if it was nothing. "I am alright, Sam. It only concerns that people don't form biases and later develop ill in their heart that would again result in sothing plotted against the Alpha."
"You speak with good heart, Selene," said a man who had a black cloth wrapped around his head. "So people need to be dealt with strictly"
"Yes," I replied. This man looked as if he was so alchemist with a beard that perfectly traced his jawbone in a line and the moustache that was in a sharp reverse U. My mory did not serve this man's na and I thought it would be bad on my part to ask it directly out loud.
I counted the number of individuals that were remaining out of the total 27 mbers in the pack. 13 had gone ho as they were night patrollers and 8 left for the day shift now, leaving only 6 mbers here.
There were many tasks on the list I was provided with and half of it can be done when the 13 night patrollers would join after their nap. "There are only a few mbers that remain and I want Sam to join for the day patrolling, go to the northern border." That was where my house was located, and Fang had easily entered the village. I did not want any such mishaps revolving around again.
Sam creased his brows "I would do it, but the northern borders are under the police protection as it leads a way to the capital city"
How is that possible? Fang must have got past them sohow, or maybe it was Channing who helped him clear the way. "Okay then, if it is safe enough, I have so other job from you. There is a land dispute going on between two farrs, George Harris and Jim Walter. I suppose you can investigate and make a rough recorded statent report of what actually happened there. Take Arina with you."
I looked at Arina, and there was a blush that rose on her face. All this ti, I thought she only cared for Sam, but this reaction was pretty unexpected. I tried to hold my smile to see Sam with his casual expression. It was still one-sided; I suppose.
"Okay," Sam agreed and gestured Arina with his hand, "Co on let's go"
For a mont till they walked away, I couldn't take my eyes off them and see the red colour of Arina's hair match the colour of her ears. Soone coughed from the remaining mbers and my attention snapped back to the piece of paper in my hand. "Yes, so... umm... Donnie and Connie get the taxation bills sorted for the business that runs in Winterwells and..." I looked at the man with a black cloth around his head.
His hands were holding each other in front and he did a gentle bow, understanding I did not rember his na, "I am Benjamin Warlock, co-head of the dicine departnt in the hospital"
"Nice to know you, Mr Warlock." I had got out of the habit of bowing, but I did it to return his gesture. "It is great that you are already accustod to the hospital. I believe you are aware of the new dical trainees that joined a week back. Please dig up their background information as so of them have submitted fishy information." If I were to go, do these tasks when I don't even know what goes under the shade here properly, I would surely ss up. "Bring everything to when done"
The three n left the scene after I handed the twins three tally sheets. The only one left was Suzan, and I knew what I needed her help for.
"Suzan, there is a task for you, but you will have to wait for my return from the police station," I said. The task was as simple as getting the information of the prisoners' punishnt period and the modifications of the ti as per their behaviour and bails that occurred in the last week. But there was one big problem; I had a strong feeling Chief Jack would give a tough ti with this.
Suzan walked ahead and gave a gentle hug this ti, and I returned it. I think even I needed this. "It is so good to see you walking again. I will wait for you at the chillies"
I nodded, giving her a kind smile. "Let's walk there together. I have to go ahead from there to the police station."
