บท 145: Stunned Mullet

~ ELRETH ~

"I'm waiting, Gar," Elreth hissed as they stalked down the trail. If she'd been in her lion form, all the hair on her back and tail would have stood up. 

Gar kept looking around, left and right and up into the trees, as if he thought they might be trailed by birds. "We need to get out of the City limits first, I think," he said. "We've got hidden patrols everywhere right now."

"Which only begs the question, how did any Chimera—even one—get into the City at all without Anima help?" Elreth muttered, cursing under her breath.

Aaryn gasped. She turned to her mate who stared at her shocked.

"You think they were helped by one of us?"

Elreth looked at Gar and saw a strange combination of pride and regret on his face.

"Yes, I do," Elreth said, without breaking eye-contact with her brother. "Holy shit, Gar. What did you do?"
