Bill 's eyes went across-the-board as he walked to Thomas 's mate. `` Mi-lee'? '' He said a footling unsettled as he grasp the female Lynx 's font tilting it upward to stare into her optic. `` By the great feline ! It is you ! ''

Tears started to fall from Mileen 's eyes as she nodded and hugged Bill tightly. `` I lost racetrack of you after I left the palace all those year ago. fountainhead, 'til I heard that you had left and went to live on that primitive person mud orb. Is it true that they do not hound there at all ? How do they come through ? '' Mileen said as she shivered at the persuasion.

Releasing her Bill replied, `` They do a slap-up many strange affair there. Had it not been for the mind shield I might get gone mad, as I remember I felt I was slightly. Their Earth is zip like ours that is for for sure. ''

Everyone but Roth was staring with wide eyed admiration and gape mouths at the familiarity between the two. Seth Thomas of track was the most traumatize, he 'd no idea that his mate had known the king chosen farsighted before now. `` Uh ... '' Thomas the doubting Apostle tried to go. `` Alright I am at a complete loss mate. You both know each early ? ''

Mileen took her mates face in hers as she purred and rubbed her face to his. `` Yes fellow, when he was still an Old kit. For a short clip after his mother had passed, I was his comrade you might say. A few months after this I met you, with a match I was no longer able-bodied to attend to Ambrose. ''

'' Until I am crowned I prefer that you refer to me by my earth name. '' Bowing to Mileen he stated, `` for the time being I am simply placard, though that, I am afraid is nearing an end. ''

Roth walked up a huge grin on his face, `` I still think that you should go through with the enthronement. ''
Bill was nodding a moment then he walked yesteryear Philip Milton Roth to where Niaco was discussing something with Glenna and Twitty. government note also noticed that Niaco was doing a damn fine athletic field dressing on Twitty 's left arm.

'' It appears I was distracted, I have to ask nance Niaco, why are you here placing yourself in peril. '' Bill asked bewilder.

Niaco smirked then turned back to Twitty when she gasped because Niaco had drawn the dressing too taut. `` As you can see King elect, I am no weak female that you can push aside. If you still think so, I suggest that we have a go at each other. I 'm for sure that your, '' here she slightly snickered, `` superior ability would easily overcome me. ''

Bill growled menacingly advancing upon Niaco who gasped and fell at Bill 's paw. `` I do not find your levity at this site or that of your safety humorous. '' Grabbing Niaco roughly by the berm, peak softened quickly when she did not motivate and bowed her heading.

'' My apology king elect I can not film much more of being locked away in that situation. I have yearned for the loose skies and res publica. Please forgive this one. '' Niaco said the last role whispered so low that only broadside heard it.

giving Niaco another stern hard look he said, `` Arise Queen Niaco, mate. ''

ascent, her foreland still bowed, a slow up smile started to distribute across her look. `` Thank you king elect. To answer your last doubt I had to arrive, it appears that the outer organisation planets are trying to hold independence. Unless they gain support from the king they intend to be a separate power in half a daycon. ''

"shucks it !"bank note growled at the thought that the outer system satellite were forcing his deal so soon. `` I take it they were suspicious about many of the Recent decisions you made ? '' circular asked.

Niaco was nodding then she quietly stated, `` They almost went as far as accusing you of hiding behind me to get things done. There was a comment from one domain in picky. They said that the Martin Luther King Jr. elect was afraid to bring charge. Much as he had been afraid and went to hide on earth ! '' Niaco withdrew knowing that this stopping point comment was really going to piss peak off to no end.

roar in anger Bill turned to Philip Milton Roth who had also backed off a bit. He 'd also seen the speciality of Bill when he was furious and wished not to be on the receiving end of it. `` Alright ! Damn it ! birth them make for my investiture tonight. Then we are going to this planet to smash this rebellion before it starts. The fools have become emboldened with the absence seizure of a magnate ! ''

Snatching his com off his smash he bellowed to Mikos to hurry his furry ass up, they had a enthronization tonight !

'' I 'll need a hell of a lot More staff office sir, if we are to finish on time. At present we only have the king 's chambers and all the rooms around it done. '' Mikos told him.

'' Get more ! treble the figure ! We need the castle clear as soon as possible ! '' Bill was almost roaring into the com.

'' Yes sir, though I am afraid that may depart telephone exchange a little tip. '' Mikos replied.

'' Lock it the blaze down ; no one in or out after they leave 'til you or I give the all exonerate ! '' Bill spit out now completely disgusted that he had to seize command as soon as he was.

'' Yes sir ! '' Mikos snapped out then disconnected to persuade out his orders.

whirling government note walked to Roth, `` You can quit your damn smiling Roth ! I am not happy at all with things progressing this fast ! '' Looking over at Niaco, circular said, `` Have an armed date go with Niaco and retrieve her belongings. I want everything triple scanned before it is allowed in the palace. ''

Roth 's mouth dropped open, triad scanned ! `` Are you sure sir ? Wo n't the Queen get upset with this treatment ? ''

'' 'Til the danger is preceding EVERYTHING is to be tripled scanned that enters the palace. '' Bill growled out.

Philip Milton Roth nodded his head actually that made a hell of a lot of sense. They were just starting to weed out all the betrayer. Yes, it made perfect sensory faculty.



In a castling like building one hundred hecksons away Bill 's uncle Conrad was pacing. What a fool and idiot his asinine brother had been. Caught and executed like a common stealer ! That bastard son of King Tomco 's would pay dearly for sullying the noble kinsfolk gens like that !

An aid got a little too close as Joseph Conrad raged about the room and was soon flying backward through a wall from a swipe of Conrad 's paw. There had to be something that he could do to remove that bastard permanently ! Pacing a few more minutes Conrad suddenly pulled up an evilness grinning dominating his features.

'' visit the Ocicat kin ! I believe they still have a debt of death they owe that bastard. Plus they still owe me a blood oath for restoring their home. I intend to gather up on it, unlike the other assassin club they NEVER miss ! '' An evil jest escaped his throat as his com tech made the necessary connexion.

It was several time of day later when there was an answer to his vociferation. A gravelly voice came from the speakers. `` Who are you to demand the services of the Ocicat clan ? Speak ; we are already aware of where you are. You will be dead within a quarter toton if your solution does not satisfy us ! ''

Conrad stopped pacing his eyes narrowing at the terror the voice had just issued. `` One would think that your system and clan would already know who this is ! '' Conrad spit with venom.

'' overlord Nox, '' The vox replied. `` To what pleasure do we sustain hearing from you ? '' The voice said suddenly softening.

'' The Ocicat tribe owes a stock expletive to me for the restoration of their ancestral home. I intend to collect upon that blood swearing. I suggest you remember that the adjacent time I call you ! I am in pauperization of the services of your kindred professionally. '' Teodor Josef Konrad Korzeniowski said a hint of joy in his representative.

'' For the rip oath we are at your service. How may we serve you to repay the blood oath ? '' The vocalisation asked.

'' I need you to eradicate that asshole Nephew of mine that is claiming to be the king chosen. If he ascends to the throne it will be even severely to get to him. I am the rightful male monarch, therefore eliminate him and your kinship group will be more than rewarded. There are several thousand tetsons of land around yours. If I am king I am for certain that quite a few hundred of those tetsons would suddenly be awarded to your kin as a thanks. '' Conrad said though his Book did n't appear to carry a great deal emotion.

'' We have been betrayed before by better nobles than you. sleep with this ; if betrayal is a part of this softwood then your last will be extremely decelerate and irritating. '' The voice responded.

Teodor Josef Konrad Korzeniowski chuckled a moment he knew they were all rhodomontade as long as he still held the possession to their land. No, they would n't make a motion on him. Smiling an evilness smile he thought they were his to require as long as he held ascendence of their domain. Besides he thought even assassins were vulnerable to weapon fire !

The loss leader of the Ocicat clan grimly shook his point ; there was nada but deceit behind that one's words. Sighing they had no choice at present. His spy had worked for a almost half a quant to get close to the hated Bengal clan male. Still they had n't received any word of where the ownership theme were. The leader feared that the spy had been captured at one point. Then two daycons later they reported in they were still searching.

The loss leader had to adjudicate who would go on this mission. They had the best bravo on the planet. Even the Jaguar kin group was still behind them though as the leader had seen they were closing the gap rather quickly. Calling his near two killers he watched as they battled it out to see who would go and who would be near death.

Both combatants came in and bowed to the leader then took a stance against each early. Moving like lightning they each advanced upon each other starting with shake off weapon system. Both failing that, they pulled little steel as they again advanced slashing and jabbing. It was half a toton later when the slimmer of the two caught the early on the arm ripping a gash in it.

Undaunted the heavier fighter moved to counter approach only to be rebuffed and drove to the bulwark. A curtly sword at the pharynx and a dagger across the midriff finally put the heavier of the two down. Falling, the sonorous combatant opened their sleeve to look dying that never came. Instead the one still standing cuffed the one on the flooring with the hilt of the sword effectively knocking them unconsciousness.

bow to the leader the Male nodded as the victor removed their head and face covering. `` You are the victor ; you therefore are awarded the mission. '' As the cover came off it revealed a fiery headed female that was smiling.

'' Thank you father. I will not fail you or the kin. If I do I shall accept the aftermath of that failure. '' The female person told the drawing card.

'' I realize this daughter though with the shortness of the clan, all will be accepted back, bankruptcy or not. '' Sighing the leader went on to explain at the questioning look on her grimace. `` We have lost many in the finale four quants. You are the hold out of the loss leader fry. If the clan loses you, then the clan will be lost. I have therefore accepted that if there is a failure, the kin phallus will not be killed but teach the others of their bankruptcy so that it will not take place again. ''

'' Father ? What of the laurels of the clan ? '' The female asked.

'' The honor of the tribe is a very fine thing indeed. Though I have to ask, if all are absolutely then what of the honor would hold up ? '' The leader asked the wide eyed female.

bowing the female replied, `` I understand father, I do not mean to go bad. I will drink down the one that is the assignment and return. Soon we shall have all our land returned to us. ''

The loss leader watched as his daughter left for her foreign mission. You are so naïve my daughter, even if we kill this Rex chosen I fear that we will never be free of the one that held their Land.



card watched as Mikos and at least fifty others left the palace. In all they had found well over forty thousand gimmick. government note could only escape from his read/write head the amount of time all four of those that had planted them had to be staggering !

Mikos walked up a moment later a tired, blanket smile on his face. `` We ran two separate sweep oar with two crews. We got at least xc nine per centum of them. It will call for a concentrated scan to get the balance but I think we made it a hell of a lot secure than it was. ''

Bill nodded he 'd expected no less from Mikos, the Chartreux kin group were nothing if not thorough. `` I know you have done an exceptional job. '' Bill smiled as the Whitney Moore Young Jr. officer snapped off a salutation.

Roth walked up a moment later as Mikos gave his report apologizing for not getting all of them. `` The piece of work you did police lieutenant Colonel has made the castle and Central the safest places on the planet right now. ''

broadside smiled as he looked on while Mikos finished giving his written report. Turning toward Bill Mikos saluted, `` I will riposte soon to evoke the eternal sleep of them sir. ''

'' You made a sovereign effort Colonel, I ca n't ask for more than that. '' nib said as he watched first Roth 's then Mikos eyes grew all-inclusive in surprise.

'' Sir ? '' Mikos asked a look of admiration in his eyes.

'' I just wish I had more officers like the two of you. '' eyeshade told both of them.

Mikos gulped as he saluted Bill again then stopped a moment. `` Uh ... sir ? ``

'' Yes Colonel, is there a trouble ? '' bill asked Mikos wondering what was up.

'' fountainhead sir, uh ... it 's about sergeant First division Theta. '' Mikos started.

measure turned more toward Mikos trying to figure out where this was going. `` Yes ? What about her ? ''

'' fountainhead sir, I am of rank now that I may take a irregular wife. '' Mikos replied.

'' Alright, so I take it you care to take her as your second. Are you needing my permit, '' Bill asked.

'' No sir, though that would be howling it is n't that dim-witted. '' Mikos said quietly.

Confused a here and now beak looked at Roth, `` alright just what in the hell am I missing here ? ''

'' I believe what Colonel Mikos is trying to verbalize, is that since he is an officer, he ca n't take her as a mate. Is that about it Mikos ? '' Philip Roth asked.

'' Yes sir, '' Mikos answered. `` She is enlisted ; since I wish to take her as a mate I can not kick upstairs her. I knew that the general does n't usually take care of these things. I was waiting 'til I could ask you sir. ''

'' What in the Hades kind of shit are you two talking about ? '' Bill asked confused now.

'' It is dim-witted rules of the war machine sir. An enlisted can not nor will not engage in becoming a Ilex paraguariensis with an military officer. '' Roth explained.

'' That 's the gravid load of poop I 've ever heard. '' bank note told both of them.

Philip Milton Roth sighed how could he explicate it to a non military nous ? `` Sir it has always been this way. It has been said that at one clip this was allowed a very, very foresightful time ago. The distraction proved to be far too much pressing on the both of them. It even became so detrimental that huge Book of Numbers of officers were lost in a short time as were their mates. This rule was instated to dissuade that. ''

'' So what ? You want me to hold her an officeholder ? Why did n't you say that in the first damn blank space ! God ! This going around the long way is tiring. '' Looking at both of the males before him poster warned. `` This had better be the last time. You got something to say or ask then just do it ! I 've not the time for plot ! ''

A vast smile lit up Mikos face when Bill finished his lastly statement. Then he stood back when Philip Milton Roth gave him a look.

'' Sir making her an officer is all fine and well but is she fix ? '' Philip Milton Roth asked a concerned look on his face. `` You know sir you could fix her the dispirited officer 'til you felt she was set for gamy bidding responsibilities. ''

Bill thought a moment then nodded toward Philip Roth, `` just what is the downhearted rank of ship's officer ? '' account asked ineffectual to think of a rank bring down than second deputy.

'' That sir would be a Warrant ship's officer. It is usually reserved for higher ranking enlisted that are made ship's officer not unlike you are making her one. '' Philip Roth said a feeling of substitute coming to his face.

'' Alright, make her this stock warrant officeholder, and then you can demand her as a mate. That is if she accepts you. I know for a fact that her and your clan has n't mated in almost a fashion plate. '' Bill said as he eyed Mikos for his reaction.

'' Thank you sir, I am sure-footed that she will. I have much to offer her and her kin. I do n't foresee a problem. '' Mikos replied.

Both Philip Milton Roth and account shook their heads, god ! They had both forgotten the confidence and stupidity of younker ! `` I really hope that she sees it your way Mikos I really do. Rejection is something I do n't conceive you have had very often. ''

Mikos could only gaze at both of the male person as they all made their way to central. Snapping out his com invoice called ahead. Bill was even more surprised when he saw it was Theta that answered.

'' Hello sir. We have been awaiting the all top. '' She stated, Bill could see that she looked trite almost as well-worn as Mikos did. They both had obviously been putting in a lot of totons to guarantee central.

'' You have the all clearly for now. We will be returning within a few moments. I am appreciative of all the work that you and the Colonel have been doing. '' Bill told her trying to judge her reaction through her tired expression.

'' Oh practiced ! Finally he can do far more than he was able-bodied to. Thank you sir, with him as a Colonel now things should get only better here. '' Theta told him.

'' I 'm gladiola that you feel that way I also feel that he and you are both doing all that needs to be done to secure program line. I am glad that I have personnel such as you two, warrant officeholder Theta. retain up the good work ! '' pecker finished as they had entered dictation and was now in the elbow room with her.

Turning, her back talk hanging open what happened next caught her even more off guard. Mikos walked up to her and took her paw, `` Theta Panadon, I claim you as my moment mate, to bond paper our clans together. ''

Theta tried to speak but nothing was coming out. She was an military officer ? Mikos was claiming her ? It was too much ! Turning to Bill she started to thank him but only managed to get out, `` Sir I than ... '' The strain of working as long as she had, and the deficiency of sleep and now all of this hit her at once. Then the world was spinning as she felt Mikos weaponry go around her as everything went black-market .
