The thousand-year-old lady, me, watched this long list of burly men bow to me and felt both reassured and intimidated.
“Alright,” I said, trying to keep my voice steady despite the whirlwind of emotions inside me. “Here’s the situation. Dolores has been involved in some serious activities, and we’ve uncovered that she’s drugged Aiden and seduced Matt. This is part of a larger plot that’s putting Aiden at risk. I need you all to be on high alert and to ensure Aiden’s safety at all times.”
The bodyguards exchanged glances, their faces set with determination. “We’ll handle it,” one of them said. “We’ll set up additional security and monitor all communications. Is there anything specific you need from us right now?”
I shook my head, feeling a bit more in control with their presence. “Just make sure that Aiden is protected and that any potential threats are neutralized. I’ll keep you updated with any new information we get.”
