Author's note: this is from Duke's point of view

I disliked our current situation.
Why did Lazarus call Serina to help him catch a group of murderous werewolves? I mean, isn't he super-strong, ancient, and influential? How is it possible that he had no one else to call?
If Lazarus can't manage his territory on his own, he should hire people, form a pack, or cut his territory to a manageable size.
He could also form an alliance with some other pack and allow them to use his territory in exchange for protecting it. Aldus did a similar deal with Fynn and his group.
My point was that there were many ways for Lazarus to find a permanent solution to his problem, and not rely on others.
And this was not just any other person, but MY Serina!
The more I thought about this, the angrier I got.
Sure, technically, Lazarus called Aldus for help, but we still ended up hiking through some random forest in the middle of nowhere.
