He’s at the crime scene, doing his best to check on his ward, which is still intact, by the way, and investigate how anyone or anything could have slipped through it. He must concentrate on that. The ward is tightly knitted together with his magic to avoid any potential loophole.”

Dillon chuckled. “No, I’ll be fine. You and Darby will be there to protect me while I do my thing.”
