Baby Steps
                Ian couldn’t believe how much fun it was distracting Yolanda among those weapons. It reminded him of a library and doing something naughty in the stacks. This was more interesting with the weapons.                It took them a few hours to get everything pulled, registered, and she showed him how to package everything safely for pick up when they needed them.                “Fine, this is all we can finish. Time to lock up and head back. They will have something by now. Who knows, they may have some news or another job to do. How often do you need to check in with your boss?”                “I check in every three days. He g

Fast Tracking Education
                Hilda returned to the kitchens to get the documents she needed the Luna to sign. The rest returned to the office once an older gentleman came down the stairs. Negating his silver hair, he looked much like his son. A quick introduction and welcome. Ian didn’t want to explain that he hadn’t decided whether he would be her mate, or he’d even stay.                His train of thought got pushed aside as he saw a book passed to the mage from a disembodied hand coming from a blue glowing ball of light. “What the hell?”                “Mini portal. He ordered a book from their library by the looks of it. Where do you think the more interesting tomes went when the Library of Alexandria burned? Do you th

Explanations
                Hal followed Aria to her home. He didn’t know what he expected to find. What he found was unexpected. Gravel roads, wolves peaking through wooded areas while humans walked by greeting Aria and her returning their greetings. Quick words reminding her of things while she poked at a tablet in her hands. She’d used the excuse that she needed to catch up on work. Her conversations with the wolf shifters were all business. Hal wasn’t sure what work she meant. Wasn’t she just their version of a bodyguard? What else did she do? What other job did she hold? But there she was, walking down a path, ignoring obstacles she might trip over. She fried his nerves watching her, blinded not two hours ago from the cave in. He itched to pull out his own laptop. He’d wait until he could sit.              &nb

Incident, Accident, or Outright War
                “So, if we’re hunting for an immortal creature, how do we kill it? Just a stupid human here. But if you can kill an immortal, that immortal isn’t immortal.” Hal looked up from where he and Aria huddled over laptops.                The Fianna worked on translating various items within the book found in the cave. The symbols on the other items needed to be deciphered. He’d spent the better part of an hour explaining every creature they would encounter. How to kill them and when? What to use and how? Ian felt like he was preparing for war, and when he commented on that, he’d received looks that put his understanding of the situation in a whole new light. They were at war now. There wasn’t anything funny or cute about a brownie or elf. No one spared time to correct him, but

The Hunt Begins
                The call went out for help from the Dragon community. This faction of NARC was one of the harder factions to contact. They kept themselves so isolated. To protect their way of life. They leave messages in locations that are checked frequently. So, if NARC wasn’t sitting, or their Ambassador wasn’t present, communication was possible. They needed to wait for Edith, Gregory’s mother, and the Wolf Shifter Ambassador to NARC to get the message through as she could send the message through one of the faster routes.                “My question now is. How do we find the disenfranchised shifters? While not leading the Fae to them?” Hal chimed up from his place in the corner with Aria. She smiled at him and moved a lock of his hair from his eyes.      &

Time to Talk Finally
                Yolanda sat with a desk between herself and Edith. As they all tried to keep up with her. The woman could multitask like a champ. She’d a steel trap for a brain for who needed what special treatment. They changed email lists, phone call schedules, and tailoring messages for each and everyone. There’re lists and charts of all the needed details. It all made Yolanda’s head spin.                Yolanda knew this wasn’t something she’d any skill with. Tact wasn’t something she possessed. Nor did she have the patience to explain the same thing repeatedly as she watched Edith do on multiple calls. Edith would scribble notes as she spoke to them and then pass those notes to Yolanda, Ian, or her mate. She expected them to know how to record the notes.    &n

Alphas in Private
                Aricka returned to the Alpha apartments from the bathroom again with a tired sigh. “You okay, babe?” Gregory looked up from the tablet’s screen at his mate in concern.                “I’ll survive. Thank heaven’s this pregnancy will be shorter than the Evan’s. I don’t think I can hide this part as much as I’d like.”                “Why don’t you let Doctor Graves give you something for it?”                “Last time nothing worked. So, I figured I’d just ride it out.” Aricka sat down on a chair and took her shoes off, then lay down. “What are we goi

Jaxon’s Experience
Devine watched as Jeff and Jaxon work. They found many in need. They’d also found a way to record it all too. Those were Jeff’s words. It wasn’t just wolf shifters suffering here, and it wasn’t just in the local area. There were pockets of need everywhere. NARC then stepped in to help those the system failed.                Clean up was still happening as I found issues. Jaxon took up searching the internet for breeches. Devine was sending out reports to NARC officials so they could send out teams of enforcers to sort out and fix the issues. Before they became irreparable breeches to the humans.                Rogues were returning to where they once lived. The difference was many wished to return to pack life. This meant NARC enforcers either needed to negotiate their return to their old packs,

A Team but Divided
                Jaxon and Devine escaped from Jeff when Juliette stepped in. She used the excuse that she’s tired to get him to stop questioning of Jaxon about his abilities. Devine was never so relieved. Jeff was oblivious to how uncomfortable it was for Juliette and her to watch the conversation.                “Come on. Let’s go home. Get some shuteye. We’ll be at this again as soon as morning comes. I suspect the idea of us working through breakfast won’t be happening if Julies has anything to say about it.” Devine led Jaxon through the pack house and down the back stairs. Hilda and her staff still used them. Because of the traffic in the building. It gave them an easier way to move through the house without dodging a small army. But at this hour it wouldn’t be busy. Devine knew she

Settling in only to be Disrupted.
Allan closed their apartment door behind them. Edith was busy pouring herself a drink from the mini-fridge by the bar in the sitting room. He let out a sigh, “Pour me one dear. We’ll be up for a bit; I think working out this one.”“Yes, it seems if it’s not raining, it's pouring around here. One crisis to another, it seems. Which crisis have you in this state?” Why’d he made her a mother? Her instincts about everyone around went into overdrive when she gave birth to Gregory and never stopped. No one could hide anything from her. She didn’t even contemplate playing dumb.“The humans. I’m worried it’s a mistake just to welcome them. It’s going to backfire on us at some point.”“Look at it this way. Someone sells a piece of toast with the image of Mary on it for thousands of dollars. They cry and moan about haunted houses. They poke about for a few hours and run away. No one bats an
