Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate

Chapter 284 Reinforcements

As soon as Lord Brarthroroz had ended his call with Bartholomew, he asked Greyson if there was anywhere close by that he could get to without being seen.

“What for?” Greyson asked with a tilt of his head.

“I intend to have some of my own forces brought to help shore up your defenses here,” Lord Brarthroroz explained, “I assumed that your men would prefer not to see their true forms and that would require having somewhere a little more… discreet.”

“I see,” Greyson said as he narrowed his eyes thoughtfully, “well, unless I can clear an area of me then it’s going to be difficult. How much space do you need?”

“Just enough for a portal.” He shrugged as Greyson’s eyes widened slightly.

“Right. Well…” He paused again as he extended that word and rubbed his chin thoughtfully, “How about in here? We can clear out and wait outside if there’s enough room in here.”

“You may want to clear this floor then until everyone is through. There may be some unpleasant odors and some… more intoxicating than others.”

Lexi stiffened slightly as she looked across at her father.

“Are you really allowing them here?” She exclaimed in surprise and recoiled slightly when he nodded casually.

Greyson bristled suddenly. “We are not afraid of what we might face there. We…”

“Pipe down stressy,” Lexi snapped with a colossal eye roll, “He’s not saying that you’re incompetent. Merely that you die easier.”

“That doesn’t sound any better.” Greyson growled furiously.

Well when you can grow skin that’s capable of deflecting most blades, most bullets and is practically impervious to magick then you can consider yourself, and your men, as harder to kill than these… soldiers.” She hissed back furiously as Greyson blinked
