Unlikely Allies

~SLOAN'S POV~

“The forbidden technique is forbidden for a reason,” Trager said with a lot of conviction. “It gradually kills the healer involved. And it does no good to anyone receiving it.”

“I know. That is why we should use it. Silas came all the way here for a healer like that. What do you think he wants to do once he catches the healer?” I asked him but Trager didn't seem to have an idea.

“Punish them?” He guessed.

“No. He wants to weaponize them. I can get at least ten of them. He can do anything, get anything, even expand his territory. Don't you see that?”

While we spoke in our minds, we looked like a psych patient, lost in our world. I wondered what the members of the council saw us as.

“Will you two come out of it?” Trager's father said with a disapproving glance. It was then I realized that Alpha Silas was no longer in the room.
