Bab 189: The Enlistment Begins

Rhett sighed to himself, his eyes remaining expressionless when he saw Darius. 

By the moon, what did he want? What was he doing here? The Alpha said they would oversee the enlistment program together, but that didn't mean he had to see the annoying Beta twenty-four-seven, right?

"Beta Darius, I wish I could say it's nice to see you, but I'm really busy right now." Rhett shot Darius a forced smile, which also held a warning: 'Back off'.

But it seemed the Beta was tone-deaf as he scoffed before replying. "It can all wait. We need to commence preparations for the enlistment program. We're behind schedule and wolves have already begun coming forward to enlist."

Rhett clenched his jaw, fighting hard to contain his growing irritation. He glanced at Farkas at the back, silently asking him if it was okay for him to leave this case to him. The military advisor gave him a nod, smiling wryly.
