The night passed off without incident. Varna had insisted they all stay together in the Royal Suite and take turns mounting guard in addition to the palace guards placed outside the suite, none of whom Varna trusted.

The following morning at breakfast a palace official hurried in and walked up to Varna, who was helping herself to some chopped fruit from the buffet laid out at the back of the room.

"My Lady, may I have a word please?"

"Of course." She put down her bowl and turned to face the official. He shifted from foot to foot and wrung his hands. "Well?" She frowned at him and caused his agitation to increase.

"Umm ... Ma'am, I have just been informed that Lady Minara had been taken, and a message left in blood painted on the door of one of her barns."

"What was the message?" Varna swallowed, a knot forming in her stomach; she had not expected Minara to be a victim. The buzz of conversation ceased as the others turned to listen. "It simply said: who's next?"

"When you say taken, was there no body?"

"No ma'am, she did not return home last night and the message was found this morning. She would not leave her son, ma'am, the servants are certain of it."

"All right, thank you for letting me know."

The official bowed and left the room. Varna waved the servants out of the room and started to pace as her three crew watched her. Two of them sat, concern on their faces.

Theasa was visibly shaken, tears welling in her eyes when she spoke. "What are we going to do, Varna?"

Something had niggled at Varna; she had suspected the human would not attack Minara so the news had been a surprise, but the fact there was no earless body lying next to the barn doors to reinforce the bloody message seemed strange.

"Theasa! Pull yourself together..." The doors burst open, interrupting her. Varna spun around, her hand reaching for the pistol on her hip. She relaxed as soon as she saw it was the palace guard commander, a scarred and shifty looking thug who was nothing if not loyal to them.

He bowed. "I'm sorry, m'lady, but I have just heard news that General Arron has appeared in the city and is making for the city guard headquarters."

A knot formed in her gut and she heard Theasa gasp behind her. They had not yet replaced the city guard commander as he had not given them any cause - yet, but Varna knew they could not trust him to be loyal. They had also heard whispers of this General Arron, and that he had been killed rescuing some member of the royal family before Minara had taken over. "How do you know it is this General Arron suddenly come back from the dead?"

Varna noticed the commander knot his fists before answering. "He is unmistakable, m'lady, he had golden hair and blue eyes like you."

Petara voiced what they were all thinking. "Ancestors, a Grojan!"

Varna held up her hand for silence. "Thank you, commander, please secure the palace and double the guard, and don't be concerned, we are more than a match for him."

"Yes, m'lady." He saluted, turned and left the room to do as he was ordered.

She turned back to her crew. Theasa, tears openly tumbling down her face as she sobbed, the other two had fear in their eyes.

Petara shook her head. "Varna, you know we cannot face a Grojan."

Varna continued her pacing. "Be quiet! Something is not right here, something I'm missing..." She started to think out loud. "When we arrived Minara was pregnant, she said the father had died." She turned and paced back across the room. "How many Grojan have we seen or heard of since we have been here?"

"None except for Minara," Petara answered the question.

"Exactly!"

"What are you getting at, Varna?" Petara asked.

"Don't you see? He has to be Minara's mate."

"So? The human has killed her."

"But has he? Think for a moment: the message said he would kill us and chop of our ears. We found Sisanna dead and without her ears, but there is no sign of Minara. Why didn't the human leave her body minus her ears by the message?"

Petara shrugged. "I don't know, Varna."

"Didn't you notice Minara's reaction when she saw the human's message?"

"She was concerned like the rest of us, well, except for that vicious bitch Sisanna of course."

"No Petara, the expression on her face when she first saw the message was shock, but she masked it quickly so I thought she might know the human, especially as Theasa discovered evidence of humans with Grojan DNA." She held up her hand as Petara opened her mouth." She will give you the details later."

"B ... but, Varna, his face was covered." Theasa took a shuddering breath and wiped her tears with her fingers.

"She didn't need to see his face, his voice, she recognized his voice, they are a bonded pair!" Varna snapped.

"A human?" Petara spluttered

"A hybrid!" Varna threw her arms in the air in frustration and glared at her crew. "Don't you see? This General Arron and the human are one and the same."

The three women facing her gasped in unison. "Minara mated with a human, a hybrid?" Petara shuddered. "It's disgusting."

"She didn't know, because as far as she was concerned he was a Grojan, an unmated adult male. What did you expect her to do? We cannot escape our primitive instincts."

Petara shook her head. "I know, but it is still disgusting, and she had a child by it, Ancestors! Do you think she knows?"

Varna shrugged. "I don't give a fuck, but think for a moment, what can stand up to a battle raged Grojan male?" All three women looked at her blank expressions on their faces. Varna rolled her eyes. "Ancestors, I'm surrounded by idiots - another battle raged Grojan male, and if he were in a mating rage there would be no contest!"

"Oh yes, we have adult Grojan's hanging from trees I suppose!" Petara retorted, a sarcastic edge to her voice.

"No, but we might have another hybrid."

All three of her crew looked at her stunned. "You mean in your fucking artifact?"

Varna sighed. "The penny drops! Yes of course."

"It's a cryochamber actually," Theasa added as her sobs subsided.

Catana, who had sat silently through the conversation so far, frowned. "Varna, we are not certain that is what it is."

"I know that, but what if it is? We could revive it, then I let it see me just at the right moment and tell it I'm in danger and need protecting, and you know what will happen."

Catana shook her head. "Varna, it will go berserk, and that is extremely dangerous. What happens when it has you alone after it has killed everyone else, you know what it will do to you, and you won't be able to stop it, in fact if you bonded with it you would welcome it. You will end up like Minara."

"Ah, but I know it's human, I will resist it, then once their General Arron is dead I will shoot it." And you don't know I have already passed the initial bonding stage with a fucking human so I should be able to resist it, Varna thought to herself.

"After all this time and effort protecting the bloody thing? What if you can't? Varna, we don't understand on what level these changes have been made, we cannot fight what we are. Even you, Varna, cannot deny your Grojan heritage."

"Don't be ridiculous, I know it's human, to mate with it would be nothing short of bestiality, disgusting!" Varna shuddered. "Anyway, until we revive it we can't be sure that is what it is."

Petara shook her head "It's too risky, Varna and you have had this 'thing' about it for years, you won't be able to resist it."

"What alternative do we have? It's that, prison, exile or death!" Varna snapped. "Besides, now Sisanna is gone and the core is destroyed I can open it without setting off Sisanna's explosive device.

"On your head be it, Varna, we will hide in one of the bedroom closets, then we can surrender if it goes wrong and there is no chance of it turning on us before it has taken you."

"Well I'm willing to give it a go if you don't want to."

"Theasa! How can you say such a thing?" Petara raised her eyebrows at the teenager.

"Well I've never fought humans because I was too young for the war, and if it looks like a Grojan and feels like a Grojan what's the difference?"

"Ancestors! The younger generation!" Petara shook he head.

"Huh! You're only seven years older than me," Theasa retorted.

"Enough! I'm going to revive this thing and set it on General Arron, who I believe is also our synthetic human, Grojan hybrid who has been threatening us. I can't see any other way out of this mess and at least I'm reviving it for something useful."

Catana shrugged "Well on your head be it, Varna."

"I can do this!" Varna took a deep breath and squeezed her eyes tight shut for a moment, then fisted her hands to prevent them trembling. Her pulse raced as she summoned the palace servants and ordered them to help carry the large white casket from their ship's hold to the royal suite.

With the cryochamber standing in the main bedroom, Varna knelt by the control panel. Theasa had told her which control started the revival sequence. With a knot tightening in her stomach she pushed the button. The panel turned red and a countdown sequence started. She instructed the servants in what needed to be done after the human was revived. The full revival sequence had been in the material Theasa had translated. It had to be fed and rested so it would be ready when she needed it. According to the information Theasa had found, the full revival could not be rushed and would normally take several days, but Varna didn't have the time. The others were to hide, and when the time came the servants were to lead it through to the main reception room where she would be waiting.

She planned to then act out the charade and launch it at their enemies. What could go wrong? Varna caught herself trembling. Everything could go wrong. It might not be a hybrid, it might not bond with her, especially as she had started to bond with another human so long ago. Did interrupting the bonding process cancel it? She had no idea and she had never heard of it happening before. And the part that worried her the most; what if it were close to the real thing and she could not control her primeval instincts. Her trembling increased. "Ancestors help me." She ran her hands through her hair and sat down.

Everything seemed hazy and indistinct. He could make out vague shapes, light and movement, but he could not focus. He was ravenously hungry and thirsty and tried to swallow, but his mouth seemed dry, his tongue like old leather.

His head was lifted by gentle hands and cool fresh water touched his lips. He gulped it down greedily, reaching for more when the container was empty, a few moments later another container was pressed against his mouth and he emptied it as well, coughing when it caught his breath.

The figures were becoming clearer as his eyes started to focus, the light and dark resolving itself into faces looking down at him. "Where am I, who am I?" His voice came out as a croak as if it had not been used for years.

They said something back to him and appeared to talk amongst themselves. He understood them, but they weren't speaking in the same language he was thinking in. How did he understand what they said? He switched his thoughts and asked the same question in their language.

"You are in the Royal Palace of Halcyon, sir."

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 5 A Derelict Ship

"It's been six hours since we should have heard from Minara, try and contact her again, Catana." After several attempts, the quantum communication system just hissed static with no connection established. Sisanna sat with her boots on the navigation console. "Maybe she has given up and left." "No that's impossible, I don't care whether you like her or not, Sisanna, Minara is nothing if not reliable. She will do exactly what she says she will do and is certainly someone I would want...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 21 Escape

Varna slept fitfully, running plans of escape through her mind. For some reason she did not understand she was certain Mark would come for her. But she was no shrinking maiden waiting for her knight to rescue her. She was determined to take matters into her own hands and escape. It niggled at her that they had taken her alive. Of course she didn't object in the slightest, but why? For the bounty all they needed was her ears and her thumb with her personal ID chip. Keeping her alive was a...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 9 Halcyon

The Slexi Moon orbited a barren planet deep in the Scorpious Sector. They had been on the run now for three months and had at times come close to being captured. Varna sat at the Navigation console moving randomly through the database. She was alone, attempting to forget the pull the casket in the hold had on her. When she was occupied or asleep she forgot about it, but when she had time on her hands, time to think the emotion bubbled to the surface. She hated it because it was how Sisanna...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 7 On The Run

The old man rose. "Now, my dear, there are pressing matters I have to attend to and there is nothing more I can tell you about your artifact." Varna stood and followed him to the door. He put his hand on the door catch then hesitated and turned towards her. "Are you certain you do not want to sell it to me, I can pay a great deal of money for it?" She frowned for a moment - it did take up space in the hold and while most of her crew accepted her eccentric attachment to it Sisanna would...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 15 A Request

The streets were busy, the city bustling, everything had returned to normal after the King and Queen had come out of hiding. The whole country had thought them dead and Minara had suspected the Halcyons would insist she and Arron took the crown. Once it became known they had survived there was rejoicing throughout the kingdom. The fact that she had hidden the royal family from the Usurpers, as Varna and her crew were being called, made her a heroine as far as the people were concerned. As...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 8 Bounty Hunters

"Well it would seem we are officially classed as pirates." Four young women sat round a table in a dark corner of a seedy bar located in a rundown city on a lawless rim planet. Theasa looked round the table at her comrades and captain. "I hacked into the planetary security network and we are on the list, a bounty on our heads." She shook her head. "It's not fair we are lumped together with that murdering bitch Sisanna." A tear trailed down her cheek. "I only just failed the mating...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 27 Family Reunion

The ship smelt damp and musty with a hint of oil and stale alien sweat thrown in for good measure. Mark thumped the main console as the nav screen flickered out for the umteenth time. The jump engines were charging, and as the small three berth scout ship drifted in interstellar space it creaked and groaned like an old fashioned wooden sailing ship. Most of their money had been spent on a decent ship for Arron and Minara. They had left the station several days ago to search for their young...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 22 Hacker

The inner airlock refused to close. Mark had removed it from its track and dismantled it three times now and it was seriously pissing him off. He had used the door from Varna's cabin to repair the blast damaged airlock. He had ripped the closing mechanism from the cabin wall to escape and it was not worth repairing, especially as the ship needed an airlock to go into space. Cabin doors were a low priority. Mark swung a booted foot at the door and hit it hard in frustration. It groaned and...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 10 Hunted

The evening was cold and Varna stood on the palace battlements watching the market close and the stall holders pack up. She shivered and pulled her cloak round her. She heard footsteps and looked round; Petara was making her way along the walkway towards her. Varna turned back to watch the activity in the square below. Petara stopped next to her and they stood together in silence for a while. "I saw Minara walking around the market this morning," Petara broke the silence. "Yes, I think...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 16 Release

The carriage rattled along the cobbled street, the leather and wood suspension barely isolating Minara from the uneven surface, the early morning light only just illuminating the still deserted city streets. It would be another hour before the traders would be opening their shops and the market holders advertising their wares, each adding to the noise and bustle common in cities everywhere. She yawned, and her mind wondered to the previous night, and she smiled to herself as warmth suffused...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 3 A New Ship

On paper the ship looked to be ideal for Varna's purposes - a heavily armed converted freighter that still retained a reasonable size hold. The downside was, being rather old, it needed five crew to run it. A pilot, navigator, engineer and two for weapons control. The navigator, co-pilot and second in command was Sisanna, an older, hard and vicious woman she had befriended after she pushed Minara away and transferred to a different brigade. Varna wanted a reputation as a badass, and the...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 2 A Hybrid

Two Intelligence Corp psychology officers strode down the corridor and knocked on the commanding officer's door, one Grojan and one human. "Come in." The base commander, Major James Evans, sounded weary. The doctor sighed, opened the door and stepped into the commander's office. The commander looked up. Yes?" "We have a problem with Captain Fuller, sir." The commander ran his hands through his hair. "Dear God, that's all I need on top of everything else." The human doctor made a...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 25 Lost

Four days had passed since arriving at the ICorp base and Mark busied himself checking the ship's systems. He unconsciously raised his left hand and touched the long tip of his left ear. There was no feeling as it had no nerves, but the surgeons had done a perfect job of bonding synthetic tissue to his own ears. He now looked like a Grojan. Footsteps sounded behind him and he turned just as Arron and Minara walked onboard, followed by Theasa carrying Arron Jr. Minara smiled, showing perfect...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 4 Minara

Catana leant forward and pointed at the star map floating in the center of the control room. "I was told a few human ships were spotted there." Varna walked around the map and tapped the tips of her fingers to her lips in thought. She looked across at the rest of the crew. "That's the Scorpious Sector, it is vast and deserted, if there are humans there then they would be difficult to find." She turned back to the map. "There's something about that sector." She spoke almost to...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 18 Repairs

"God, I hate fucking computers!" Mark slammed his fist against a bulkhead. He had been working for several days now attempting to get the ship's core to boot. He had traced several faults to the ship's consoles, particularly the navigation control Arron had damaged during his campaign against the pirates. To his frustration the core refused to co-operate with his efforts, a blank screen just stared back at him like a large holographic sightless eye. The Grojan ship's core was a type he...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 26 Wilderness

"Well, ladies, that proved easier than I thought." The man smiled and glanced at Nora's deecrets. Varna could see out of the corner of her eye the female had sat down next to her. She had known them long enough to realize that the way the deecret was swishing her tail, the end moving from side to side in short flicking movements, that she was not happy. Varna chose her target as Nora spoke. "And you are?" "Oh, a distant cousin, my dear, Motasa Rmaxis at your service." He bowed his...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 13 Revived

With the baby settled, Minara made her way along the hall to the landing. She stood at the top of the stairs then hesitated. She wondered if Mark Fuller had shown any sign of improvement and regained consciousness. The doctor had said there was nothing further he could do and Arron believed he had been revived from cryogenic sleep, whatever that was, too quickly. He was due back from inspecting the condition of the army barracks in the city that had suffered during a riot against Varna's...

Varna The Grojan War Book TwoChapter 17 Sacrifice

"Who are they Nora?" "I don't know, Jim, they look human though." Valenora Fuller lay flat on her stomach looking at the group working on a large military style scout ship. Others milled about round the ship, some setting up a camp. From their vantage point on a small wooded ridge overlooking the ship they could spy on the new arrivals without being seen. "They're not Grojan are they?" Diana asked, an edge to her voice. Nora, as her friends called her, twisted back to look at the...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 21 Grojan

The sun was just setting as Minara stood on the palace walls watching the last of the market stalls being packed away in the square below. Her back ached and she groaned; she wondered if she had walked too far today. One of the palace guards stepped away from his post. "Are you alright, my lady?" "Yes!" Minara snapped, and the guard flinched at her tone. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to snap at you." "That's no problem, my lady, would you like a hand down the steps?" "Yes...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 2 Arron

"Stand up straight!" the drill sergeant yelled into Arron Johnston's face and the sergeant's spittle landed on his cheeks. He stood impassively, as to flinch, or heaven forbid, wipe his face, would probably result in fifty press-ups. Arron hated the sergeant with a passion reserved for raw recruits against their drill sergeant, probably since the time of the Romans. For an eighteen-year-old, such treatment seemed pointless. He had joined up to fight the Grojan, not put up with crap like...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 26 A Mistake

With Minara safely out of the way he could move to the second part of the plan. The Grojan would be gathered in one place tonight so it was time to visit the City Guard and make his presence known. First he changed into his traveling leathers, then he made for a local stream and removed the hair dye he had smothered into his hair. Once it was all removed he walked back to the city. As he reached the outskirts people started to notice him and a crowd started to build behind him. He heard the...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 8 Bounty Hunters

The queue for drinks at the bar melted away as soon as Minara bared her teeth. Filed teeth marked her out as a failure, but she had learnt that generally, people both male and female, regarded her and others like her with fear. For some it was justified, and the woman she had come to meet had a reputation as a ruthless bounty hunter and pirate. Some of the things she was reported to have done were justified, some, Minara suspected, were meant to enhance her fearsome reputation. Minara...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 25 A Murder

Arron had used the culvert to gain access to the castle grounds for a second night. He was half expecting to have to use one of the other secret entrances but he was amazed nothing had changed. He envisaged the Grojan's would use the royal quarters, and since he had warned them of his intensions he hoped they would stay close together. Ideal from his point of view, because he knew all the secret passages in the royal residence. He hoped one was sleeping in what had been the Princess's bed...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 18 Sacrifice

The next three days dragged as Arron kicked his heals waiting for a reply from the King of Terfain. He left the Guard building for a safe house on the outskirts of the city in the rundown poor quarter as he wanted to avoid being recognized. The fair-haired General of the Halcyon Western Army was as infamous in Matheros as he was famous in Halcyon. He was relying on the fact he was infamous in Terfain as well for his plan to work. With time on his hands he considered what Minara had told him....

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 9 Marooned

Minara made her way to a small Inn in the center of the village and she pushed open the door and walked to the bar. Conversation stopped and everyone turned and looked at her, and she noted there were no female customers. The inn keeper looked her up and down, raised his eyebrows, but did not comment; she half expected him to say it was for men only and women were not welcome when she noticed a barmaid standing with a tray of drinks between two tables against a far wall. "Where is this?"...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 7 Abandoned

Eight months later, Arron was ready to start the campaign against the Matherosians holding the southern province of Halcyon. He had spent the time bringing what was more or less an undisciplined rabble into a cohesive disciplined fighting unit. A trusted Captain, and troops from Halcyon, had replaced Arron's trained men at Harcross, so he had a core of trained, battle experienced men to help speed up the process. Jerros had remained his second in command. Morale was high and the men were...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 23 A Plan

The final section of the path to his hideaway cottage was treacherous. Arron picked his way with care. He had left it like that on purpose, to dissuade visitors. The little fisherman's cottage he had purchased was originally built with only access by boat. To ensure it remained secure, and just in case he needed to open the door when he didn't have a key, he had adapted part of his defunct radio transmitter case. The case had been secured with a thumb print lock. He had stripped the lock...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 24 Hunted

The journey back proved largely uneventful. The tales of horror and cruelty coming out of Halcyon city had at least abated and things had settled to an uneasy peace. The Grojans, from what he could ascertain, were replacing people from the previous government with lackeys of their own. People with no particular skill, but who had sworn allegiance to them, mostly criminals and dropouts who could feather their own nests by sucking up to the new regime. Of the young King and Queen, other than...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 3 Halcyon

Arron had been walking for just over a week. He had left his advanced weapons, explosives and uniform under a low-level force field in the back of the cave, close to where he had been dropped. He wore the clothes of a Halcyon, a citizen of the country he had been assigned to. His identity was that of a junior army captain in the Eastern Division of the Halcyon Army. His papers showed that he originated in the north of the country and had joined the Army and purchased his commission as a...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 19 Death Sentence

The ship shuddered, waking Arron, and he stretched and yawned. The ship was no longer rocking so he pulled on his boots and, bending low so as not to strike his head, he made his way above decks and found the ship had docked and lines were being tied. The First Mate spied him. "Good morning, sir, we have arrived, the winds were favorable and we made fast passage. We should have the gang plank out shortly." Arron nodded his thanks and stood back while the crew completed the docking...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 13 Departure

The morning of departure was problem-free, for which Arron was grateful. He had ensured the additional wagons for the extra supplies needed for the Princess and had sufficient military escort as well as the wagons for her retinue. With extra military protection to the border and the Halcyon Prince meeting them on the Halcyon border, Arron was confident that baring a full-scale military assault the Princess would be delivered safely. There were some last minute changes with the Matheros...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 15 Allies And More

Arron had started to pick his way over the bodies when he noticed Minara pause. "Wait, Arron, there is one here, still alive." She kicked a body and it moved. "Stop playing dead, animal!" She stood and pulled up her skirts, revealing long shapely legs. She hitched them up to her thighs. Arron stared at the creamy smoothness of her skin, and he sensed the beast within stir. "Minara stop! It won't take much to tip me over the edge again." She smiled, revealing her filed teeth, and drew...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 20 Further Revelations

At least the food they had been giving her was good, although the facilities left a lot to be desired. Minara had to put her chamber pot by the cell door hatch at first light or it would not be emptied and she had no washing facilities. By the ninth day she really, really, needed a bath. When they had come for her, whoever they were, she had been woken with a sword at her throat. There was no sign of Arron and she noticed his clothes and weapons had gone. She had sat up slowly then swung her...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 22 Escape

Arron had started counting the days since he had been locked in the dungeon. When the first door was opened he expected to be led away for his execution, but so far all that happened was the hatch lifted and a plate of gruel was pushed through. He ate, then placed the empty plate by the hatch, then an hour later the door would open followed by the hatch and the plate was snatched away. Once he had not placed the plate to be collected and the next day he was not fed so he made sure he always...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 11 Meeting

Arron fingered his high collar and shifted his feet. He stood with his three senior officers, his dress uniform stiff and uncomfortable. They were first in line waiting for the King and Princess to arrive. He looked at the sea of faces beyond the line of officials and dignitaries facing them, the somber gray and blue dress of the males and the vibrant colors of the females' long dresses. It reminded him of films he had seen as a child of a fourteenth century ball on earth. He had become used...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 16 Revelation

They ate from the supplies left in the shack to save their own. They were both ravenous after their lovemaking. They hid the bandit's bodies in the trees. Fresh mounts were corralled in a small pen behind the trees out of sight of anyone moving along the road in any direction. Arron noticed Minara wince with pain as she settled sat in the saddle. He allowed her to set the pace and noticed her tendency to press forward had abated somewhat. "I assume that was your marvark I saw dead a few...

Minara the Grojan WarChapter 6 A Hero

The next morning Arron woke early, bathed and dressed in his light leather armor. He walked down to the common room for breakfast and was saluted by the desk sergeant. "Good morning, sir." "Good morning, Jerros." There was a noise outside so Arron walked to the main entrance and opened the doors. He was greeted by a loud cheer. A crowd was quickly gathering; people pushed forward, patted him on the back and shook his hands. He was about to step back through the door when Jerina rushed...

He was glad his partner was up for this, as his parents were eager to meet him and his recent partner.

The instructions further advised him not to open it until he could do so alone and in private. The photo was of a...
