Jennel focused on him and said, “Do you think Akkas knows how to do a cream tea?I want to make a good impression.”
Dem-rah laughed.“He knows.”
She beamed.“Good.Nylora will be a good friend.I can tell.”
Reymark said, “How can you tell, precious?”
“Same way I knew that Day-ek was mine and being with you and Jennor wouldn’t make me walk funny permanently.”She winked.
The agents and Hannah chuckled.Hannah gave Jennel the address that she was heading to and said that she would be there in half an hour.
A quick kiss to Neekil that turned into a longer kiss when he gripped her hips, and then Hannah was off to get the ingredients for the dispersal spells.
She left what had become the unofficial break room and headed to her vehicle.Time to shop to soothe some ghosts.

Nylora sighed and finishedthe filing.“I am sorry for taking off.”
Skip chuckled.“Yes, I know you hate filing.Is your patient okay?”
“Still in surgery.Her right side was turned into a sandbag.Her healing will kick in but not with all that damage there.The Gangers are her family friends, and they are on their way to sit vigil.”
“Because you can’t.”
“Correct.”She checked their call sheet, and it looked like the other four rigs were evenly spread.When the next call came in, they headed out to a young werewolf attack.Lights on, sirens silent.Shifter communities got excited around the sirens.
She looked at the scrolling report.“A young werewolf, too close to the moon, did a half shift and attacked a young cousin.Both young women are stable, but the recipient of the violence needs clean-up and stitches.”
“Got it.XIA on the scene?”
“Yup.They sent the peacekeepers in.”
“Oh.Those guys.”Nylora snorted.“I am scarier than they are.”
Skip laughed.“That’s true.”
They rolled up to the house and got out, gloves on.Nylora approached the injured female with her med kit and looked around.“If you can have a seat, I can get that tear cleaned and closed.”
The girl was holding her mom’s hand.“I am just human.Will it scar?”
“Oh, right.Thank you for telling me.I can work on it so it doesn’t, and I will be super careful with the cleanout.”
The mother smiled.“This is a second marriage for me, and we have been here for six months.Rose is having trouble fitting in.”
Nylora smiled.“I get that.As soon as I get you cleaned up, I will have a chat with the people in charge.”
She sat the girl down on a toolbox, and Nylora said, “I am sorry, but I have to cut your shirt away, Rose.”
Rose sniffled and nodded.
The sleeve and most of the shoulder came off.Nylora lined up the saline bottles and cleanser and got to work.
She kept up light chatter about family and holidays while she got each tooth mark cleared out completely, numbed it and then whispered a spell over her needle and filament.
While she sewed, one of the XIA agents came over.“Nylora, how did you get stuck on nights?”
“I requested it, Buzz.How did you get stuck here?”
