Chapter 75: Warrior to Warrior – Part 1

~ TARKYN ~

They stood in the prison tree—Tarkyn standing directly to Elreth's right, Aaryn on her other side, and Gar beyond him. Tarkyn had questioned the War Chief about his mate, but Gar waved him off saying Rika had been called away by a friend in need. She'd join them later. 

Elreth had called Jayah to be close in case there was any need for a healer, but Tarkyn suspected it was more because she wanted the option to sedate the wolf if needed. There were four guards standing at four points around the tree outside, and two more just inside the door to ensure no one else came in.

Tarkyn was concerned that there were already far too many bodies in there to let this male relax, but Elreth had been insistent that everyone be able to hear anything that was said, so they would all be on the same page.
