As they neared Zarinah, Angelo gave them the signal to stop. They still needed to know what he wanted this time.
They couldn't just charge against her without knowing what they were fighting for. So he looked at the woman who was still on her horse, wondering what was stopping her from getting off and telling them what she wanted.
She was a literal pain in their asses, and Angelo was more than willing to pay any amount to trade her out. Then again, she would be a pain in the ass of the coming generations anyway.
"Why hello there, Angelo, you look better than the last time we met," Zarinah began, not caring about anything.
She genuinely wanted to know how he was doing. Ruling Alexie was never a walk in the park, and the young wolf must have faced a lot of things. She knew he wouldn't trust her anyway, so her care for him would just be waived off.
