Rees walked with a fast pace through the corridors of Edwin's office building, ignoring the greetings of his fellow guards and the stolen glances by the female servants.
The other werewolves around him could feel the tension radiating out of his body and wondered what might have happened. He knocked on Edwin's office door to hear 'come in' from the other side in reply.
Lester was already present there with Edwin.
"Master! My Lord!" Rees bowed in greeting.
The other two men sensed the gravity of the situation.
"What news do you have Rees?" Lester asked.
Wordlessly, Rees took a few steps ahead and put a thick box on the table. Lester and Edwin caught the attention of the box only now when Rees put it in front of them.
"Wha-"
The words froze in Lester's throat, his olive-green eyes widened in pure shock as Rees carefully opened the lid of the box.
