Merek forced himself to calm down. He did not mean to tell at Boa, and part of him regretted it. "That isn't necessary Boa, I was being irrational. But she does not have to protect me, I am not defenseless. My job is too my people, all of them. I would never have came here if I knew I had enemies. I mean I know I have some enemies, but I have never seen this wolf. Boa did you recognize him at all?" Merek paced around impatiently waiting on rose. When she arrived with Zane Merek was shocked. "Oh my god, that's why you were here? Zane you sly devil she is quite beautiful." Merek communicated with Zane via mental link. He helped his beta ease into a chair. Making sure not to bother his ribs. "An injured beta and mate. Am I truly unable to protect those who matter most to me?" Merek muttered quietly to himself.<br/><br/>-----<br/>Zane got a good look at Evence before he sat down. "Oh hush lover boy, I was unable to make it home. Rose was kind enough to let me rest with her... Shit, I mean rest at her home." Zane got another whiff of that scent, but still could not put a face on the smell. Zane was starting to feel some dread washing over his body. "Why would anyone target Eve, she's like a hero to most rogues." Zane said, ignoring Merek's statement.
