Violet looked at Carissa, and asked, "If they're not targeting Aurora, could they be targeting you and the marshal's household?"

"I need to have Rod strengthen the defenses of the estate. Tomorrow, I'll take Ryan to the academy and have Rod station people outside for a few days until those individuals leave."
