Cleaning House.

‘Go and get Mrs Jacobs and bring her to the office.’ I tell Rick over the Pack link before switching to James.

‘Come to the office, something is happening.’ I quickly tell James. Standing from the desk I walk through the office, I can feel Anna’s eyes on me but I don’t tell her what I’m planning. I need Elder Thomas to agree first. Opening the office door I see the warrior standing guard at the end of the hall.

“Sam?” The young man turns around and I see it is Sam, “go and find Elder Thomas and tell him to come here now.” Sam doesn’t answer, he just quickly runs along the hall and up the stairs like the dutiful

warrior.

“What are you doing?” Anna asks me as I close the office door, I quickly walk back over to my desk chair and sit down.

“Rick is going to get Mrs Jacobs now and James is on his way down with Elder Thomas. If you don’t want her dead I want her out of the way, away from anyone else she can hurt.” Anna smiles at me, I get the impression she’s happy I’m not about to take another life. I have to admit that killing an old lady is not high on my list of things to do.

“You’re going to send her away with Elder Thomas aren’t you?” Anna asks me, understanding what I’m planning.

“She knows about The Shalamayne, enough that she was able to call them. Maybe Elder Thomas can use her to get more information on them, to help other Packs.” A knock at the door tells me at least one of
