Damien's POV.
"All stand, salute the alpha!" The commander called at the top of his voice.
All soldiers at the barracks were on their feet saluting me fiercely.
Thanks to Arielle's blessing on the land, some soldiers were strong enough to resume duty. I went to meet up with them at the barracks to assign them to duties. I left the bulk of my guards at the manor for Arielle's protection since she was still healing the children.
I raised my brows. "Judging from the strength in that salute, you have recovered enough. I'm guessing you are itching for action," I teased my soldiers.
"Sir! Yes sir!"
I turned back to the commander and nodded with a small smile. "Good, have them support border patrol and the rest should standby. There has been some unrest at the border and the rebels would want to use that as an opportunity to break in."
"Yes, your grace. Should the ones that recovered later rendezvous with the border troops or standby?"
