Chapter 19

MIRO

I stood frozen beside Theon, staring at my father. He was easily the biggest man I have ever known with biceps twice as big as my own and he was tall like a Norse Viking "How did you get in. Dad?"

Theon headed straight for the private bar in the corner. "What is it you want, Dad?" My father turned his body to where Theon now sat. His expression suddenly turned business-like, "Fine. Since you want to go that route then. Explain to me why today's mission was a fail

My brows furrowed just as Theon and I shared a glance. A fail? No, we won. We got the beast into a corner and secured it. "I beg to disagree, Father. The mission was a success. My father raised his brow. "A success you say?" "Was it
