Talia walked by Damon's side as he carried Valerian toward the receiving room on the first floor of the castle from where the noise was coming.
"Alpha!" Grady and Varya called in unison, and Valerian didn't miss that they were addressing Talia.
"We checked the perimeter and secured the castle," Grady said. "People are wondering if someone should stay here or if we can return to help our allies repel rogue attacks."
Talia was glad to see Grady and Varya. Since joining the Midnight Guardians pack, the mated couple was not idle.
Grady already had the skills of a top-tier scout, and he quickly climbed to the rank of a Lieutenant in the Midnight Guardians pack. Varya was also a capable warrior, and people wondered how she could go toe-to-toe with other warriors when she didn't have abilities. After witnessing the spectacle the Wilkow sisters caused with their song, Talia confirmed that Varya was not a regular she-wolf.
