25 Echoing Howls at Dusk.
‘Everyone, please clear away!’ I
shouted at the people on the streets as the grall horse sped past and leapt
over them. We reached the kennels quickly but I couldn’t pull the reins because
I was clinging to its mane. Fortunately, a brigade member who noticed us caught
the horse by running alongside us and catching onto the bridle. Amazing!
He guided us to the stables.
I slid off into a pile of straw.
‘Are you injured?’ the man asked.
‘Oh no!’ I replied. I was fine for
the most part, but my arms were aching. I would be very sore tomorrow. The
horse on the other hand, looked like he’d had a lot of fun and was prancing
merrily.
‘Inspector Fair River, what
happened? Why are you here?’ Other brigade members arrived, one of them bearing
a glass of water. I took it and rinsed out the straw from my mouth.
‘I have to take Geist to Cranbert
Company.’
‘Why? What has happened?’
‘Are the others in trouble?’ they
asked one after the other.
Well, they were in trouble but not
as they would imagine. I felt it was a good idea to take Geist to meet the
female and save her.
‘The whole thing went to pot. The
commander was dealing with two black tigers, and the other members are trying
to capture the other chase wolfe, but I think she’s looking for Geist. I think
if I take Geist there, she would calm down.’
They all looked at each other. They
probably knew what it was like to chase a chase wolf. They began to hurriedly
prepare.
‘Did the commander ask you to bring
Geist?’
‘No, but I think it is the best
course of action as an inspector.’
‘But…’
‘She’s calling for him, and she
won’t stop until she finds him. Meanwhile, the city knights will soon hear all
the commotion and take her away.’
The face of the senior member
looked conflicted.
‘Please, I will take responsibility
for bringing Geist. It will be fine to run him in the Joanne area anyway. If
you put a saddle, bridle and muzzle, it will be no problem.’
I would have preferred not to
muzzle Geist but it was the best course of action if there was an accident. And
if I, an inspector, and a knight were on Geist, we wouldn’t have issues if we
ran into a constable.
He nodded and we got the needed
equipment and I went to Geist’s kennel in the breeding den.
‘Hello Geist.’
The beast growled softly.
‘I didn’t come to pet today. Smell
me. You want to see her soon, right?’
Geist pressed his nose against my
outstretched hand and snorted. He suddenly became restless. (Zuben: With all
the running and sweating…?)
He pushed past my hand and sniffed
at my pocket. Although it was refined, it definitely bore her scent.
‘Inspector, we’re going.’ The
senior brigade member came and unlocked the cage.
‘You’re right about the likely
situation with the constabulary.’
‘Everyone agreed that your
judgement is credible.’
‘Let’s take Geist to meet his
mate.’
They started to outfit Geist for
his trip out.
Thank you guys for trusting me.
Geist barked as he was being
saddled and muzzled. I stroked him to keep him calm.
‘Be calm, we’re going to meet Lucas
and your mate. Be good.’
He gave a sad whine.
‘Yes, we know you hate it, but this
is the only way we can take you out.’
He looked at me with his midnight
blue eyes a little upset. I know, I don’t like it too.
Still, he accepted his gear. Lucas
raised him well.
Geist was led out of the kennel.
‘Inspector, we’ve got you a grall
horse…’
Geist growled.
‘Geist, no. You’re with me.’
He howled in protest and slammed
his tails down. Once he was out of the kennel, he had come to sniff and snuggle
up to me. The brigade member tried to pull him away but he would not budge.
Instead, Geist butted my back with his head with a dissatisfied whine. Somehow
this reminded me of Lucas.
‘Inspector…’
‘Is this the part where I tell you
I can’t ride a chase wolfe?’
‘It would be fine if we use a two-seater
saddle but we need to get to Cranbert before sunset.’
I wonder if it would be alright. My
muscles were dead from the ride here.
I was lifted side saddle onto
Geist’s back as the guy shouted, ‘I’m sorry, commander, I have no intentions!’
It was rather unexpected, but why was he apologising to Lucas?
‘Everyone. Cranbert Company
grounds, go!’
Geist started running. It felt different to the grall horse,
it felt like flying. I wonder if he was faster than a grall horse. I couldn’t
hold the reins so I held the rider’s waist while mentally apologising to the
man. His face was red.
Under the dusk, a black chase wolfe bounced around the grass fluttering her long tails. Luckily, the knights hadn’t arrived yet. So
many men were lying on the ground.
‘Lucas!’ I called searching for him.
He was still running, being chased by the wolfe. Whenever
the wolfe was about to catch him, he’d distract it with a stick which I could
see had a fluttering cloth at the end; probably the Geist scented cloth.
I was carried down.
Geist whined next to me. Even though he’d run so far and
fast, he didn’t seem tired. I removed the muzzled while brigade member removed
the saddle.
I patted his back, ‘Go on.’
He whined questioningly at me. He took a few steps forward,
then looked back at me.
‘Go on, she’s been calling. Go.’
With explicit permission, he ran forward and howled. It was
so loud we all covered our ears. In the red glow of the sunset, his coat glowed
as though he was aflame. The black shadow that had been chasing Lucas stopped
and turned at the sound. Its four ears upright in attention.
Geist howled again, and she began to run towards us. Geist
also moved forward until they both met. They both howled and circled each
other. It sounded like they were singing.
Lucas ran up to me, ‘Mira, you’re
alright! I’m glad. Did you bring Geist?’
‘Yes. I’m sorry I didn’t ask your
permission first.’
‘No, it was the right decision. I
was thinking the same thing. You saved time, and everyone. Thank you.’
Lucas slumped to the ground in
exhaustion and pulled me along with him to hold me. His sweaty clothes were
cold and made me trembled a little. But he didn’t look injured.
A man who could take on two tigers,
he was so amazingly cool!
‘Kane, you worked hard.’ He said to
the brigade member that came with me.
‘It’s nothing. I’m glad the
inspector was with us. She was able to keep Geist calm.’
‘Did the others go and stall the
knights?’
Kane nodded.
‘Thanks to their quick thinking,
it’s going well.’
Ahead of us, the black and white
wolves ran around each other in a circle, occasionally touching noses and
swinging their tails.
‘They look happy.’ Lucas said
softly.
They really did. Their growls and
whines were soft and gentle. I relaxed and leaned against Lucas watching the
wolves do their mating dance.
‘Unn~ hii~’ What was that strange
sound.
It was now dark, and there were
many dead tired people lying on the grass. I wondered if the sound was of
someone crying for help.
I sat up to look around.
‘Miraa~’
I clung to Lucas at the voice. It
caused creepy goosebumps.
‘Help me~’
Two bodies twisting oddly on the
grass. The slender one shuddered while the thicker one rolled.
No! Stay away!
Did they take off their clothes?!
Ew. Ewww!
The knights rushed in just then,
raising a mage light, and their sweaty appearance made them look like slime
monsters under the light.
‘Lucas, what happened?’
‘Oh um, I kinda, accidently, force
fed Cranbert. It is much worse than I imagined.’
26 At the end of the day…
‘What the hell happened here?’ The captain
of knights asked us as he looked down at Chris and Mr Cranbert in confused
disgust.
‘Are you responsible here?’
‘I am Lucas Rejude, head of the
Rejude Brigade.
‘Rejude Brigade? Why are you here?’
‘Well, we came to visit on the
behest of the meatball, I mean the fat man, Mr Cranbert. And several things
happened…’
As Lucas explained, the knights were
distracted by the oddly wriggling pair.
I shuddered. Lucas rose and put me
behind him. Lucas towered over the knight captain.
‘In the end, we found out that
Cranbert were keeping the female in heat to distil her pheromones.’
‘That aside, we received reports of
a large beast rampaging. Do you have anything to do with this?’
I wondered if I would be
interrogated too. As I watched the calm wolfe pair I felt satisfied, and if I
lost my job I would have no regrets risking it all to save those two.
‘I can’t say that I am not related.
The white one is mine; he’s under application to be a knight beast. The black
one is the female that Crabert was illegally tapping for the pheromones.’
‘Chase wolfe pheromones? These
guys?’
‘The female went on a rampage in
the Cranbert breeding kennel which is why things turned out this way. If you go
there,’ Lucas pointed at the open doors, ‘you’ll find the refinery. My fiancée,
and collaborator, has a sample in her pocket.’
I bowed from behind Lucas. He
looked surprised. I was surprised, too. When did I become a fiancée?
‘And you are…aren’t you a Knight
registration inspector. I think I’ve seen you before.’
‘Fair River. I am a knight
registration inspector for the Piazza area. The Rejude are under my
jurisdiction, so I…helped.’
It turned out that the captain had
come to the registration office a few times to see Clyde. No wonder he seemed
familiar.
Lucas put his arms around me. In
the meantime, the fallen members of the Rejude all got up and gathered behind
us, while the knights gathered behind their captain.
‘The beast only broke out of her
restraints. There are hurt people, but they got hurt panicking. Cranbert
Company were keeping her in an underground breeding kennel while they harvested
the pheromones with a special distillation machine.’
I pulled out the bottle from my
pocket, ‘This is a sample.’
It looked like a pretty perfume
bottom, but its contents were sinister.
The captain opened the bottle and
was about to sniff its contents,
‘Don’t do that. If you do, you’ll
end up like that…’ I said looking pointedly at the two sweaty wriggling bodies.
Everyone’s gaze followed mine and
everyone looked disgusted.
‘Help me ng~ hnn~’
‘No. Don’t rub your hips!’
‘I can’t stop it!’
‘Captain, help me!’
‘Fuck, don’t touch me! Don’t touch
me!’
Chris was clinging to a junior
knight that was trying to apprehend him, and he was rocking his hips looking
ecstatic. Cranbert was…ejaculating.
It was already too obscene.
The knights were not happy to have
to handle those two.
For the time being, everyone looked
away from the junior knights trying to hold on to Cranbert and Chris. It was
dark, they could forget what they saw.
I just thought it was unpleasant.
But perhaps men thought differently, because they looked rather delicate and
turned away.
‘It’s sad even though it is
self-inflicted.’ The captain said handing the bottle back to me.
Why was he giving it back to me?
Wasn’t this evidence? (Zuben: There is a lot of evidence in the laboratory)
‘We’ll take them to the station.’
‘What?’
‘It needs to be done. Kirk, assist
those guys! When the aphrodisiac wears off, we can listen to their testimony.’
‘Captain, why me?!’
‘You’re good at capturing people.
It is right up your street.’
‘But I don’t want to touch them…’
The captain ignored him, ‘Lyle, you
and others, go to the laboratory. Ian, call for support so we can collect the
evidence.’
‘Can you assist us with the
beasts?’ the captain asked Lucas.
‘I was going to assist you anyway.’
Lucas replied.
‘I can’t say that you are not
suspects.’
‘I understand that, too. You know
where to find us.’
‘Is that alright with you?’ The
captain turned to me.
‘Are you asking me?’
I was a little confused by this. It
was only my personal interest and nothing connected to my work. As long as the
department wasn’t involved.
‘It was my personal interest to
cooperate with the Rejude Brigade. And I was a former acquaintance of Mr Danning.’
‘A former acquaintance?’
I gave a nervous laugh. I didn’t
want to say he was my ex-boyfriend. I was grateful that he had broken up with
me. He was in trouble now.
‘I will be very happy to cooperate
with the investigation.’
Lucas looked at me anxiously.
‘Mira.’
‘It’s fine as long as the female
and Geist are not being separated.’
I gave him my business smile.
‘The wolves are in forced heat. If
they are separated, we cannot guarantee their wellbeing or the safety of their
caretakers. In addition, they would be kept near dragons in the guard kennels
which would not be conducive for the dragons or the wolves.’
‘But the female is evidence.’
‘In my capacity as an inspector, it
would be best for the female to be kept with the Rejude Brigade. Their
facilities already have accommodations for chase wolves, so another would not
be a burden.’
If he still tried to separate the
two, it was not my fault if the knights got hurt.
‘There are also two black tigers in
there that went on rampage. If they can’t be kept in the guard kennels, we can
look after them at our kennels.’
The knight paled as soon as he
heard about the tigers, ‘Tell us that earlier!’ he said before running to the
building. Tigers were dangerous, I wondered if the knights who had gone in
earlier were only.
Lucas grinned at his back as he
shouted, ‘They’re in their cages but are grumpy so be careful!’
He turned to me and shrugged.
I realised he was really good at
handling beasts, more than most people. I suppose that was needed to become the
commander of a brigade. That must be why the other guys say just him was enough
in some circumstances.
‘Well, Mira?’
‘What is it?’
Lucas smiled at me. It wasn’t my
fault the knight knew who I was. But I didn’t think there was a problem.
Everything went almost as planned.
‘I will be present at your
interrogation. I will not let you be alone.’
‘Don’t worry. I am prepared for any
consequence.’
‘That’s why I’m worried, I knew you
would prioritise work over yourself.’
I was the one who convinced Lucas
to get involved, and I didn’t want him to shoulder the blame alone. But I
didn’t want to argue about this now. (Zuben: The man could have chosen not to
get involved)
‘What is this about me being your
fiancé? Are you sick again?’
‘Mira…’
‘Oh was it a lie to protect me?’
‘No, it wasn’t a lie. If you
consent, I always want to be by your side.’ Lucas said seriously. His blue eyes
stared into mine. The guys were around us, watching us with smiles on their
faces. A few seemed to have tears in their eyes. What a nice atmosphere.
(Zuben: God, she must have 360 eyes to see what everyone around them was
doing.)
‘Ah~ so tight uh~’
‘Captain, I don’t like this.’
‘It is nothing. You’re nothingness.
Be nothingness.’
‘Oh~ oh~ stronger~ tighter~ I’m
coming~!’
‘Dammit! Get the carriage here as
soon as possible!’
‘Yes!’
‘Ah~ Mira~ help me~ my girlfriend~’
Chris reached out to me with his
cuffed hands. His body had been tied up. Everytime the knight pulled at the
rope, he made gasps of pleasure, the knight looked sickened. He and Cranbert
were rubbing against each other while Cranbert was constantly ejaculating and
panting.
‘Shall we take Geist and the female
back to the kennel?’
‘Yes, let’s bring the cart round.’
We pretended we didn’t see them and
carried on with what needed doing. It was best to get out of the way now and
leave the rest to the well qualified knights.
