"You mean I should give her the house I'm not supposed—" Deroot began to say with a visible expression of shock on his face, only to stop speaking when he realized that he was simply repeating the alpha's words back to him like an idiot.
"Yes! You'll give her the oldest flat on Bushen Street!" Arshe ordered.
"That... that old flat?" Deroot asked, trying to confirm that they were saying the same thing, only to lower his head the second he realized that he was being stared down by a clearly annoyed alpha.
"Yes, Alpha! I'll get it done," Deroot replied, walking out of the office as fast as he could the second he was dismissed.
His first thought was to head back to his office, only to feel angry at the thought that someone close to him there had gone as far as to snitch on him.
"I need to see Balin," he muttered under his breath as he changed directions, leaving Arshe's office and heading straight to the parking lot where his car was parked.
