\u201cAsil has appointed himself my guardian?\u201d asked Charles softly. Asil was overstepping himself. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe was bored, he told me,\u201d said his father. He gave Charles a small smile. \u201cI have given him a job so he doesn\u2019t get bored again.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I wish there was more Asil here, but I’ll take what I can get.<\/p>\n

Bran decides to send Anna–with Charles as her bodyguard–to Boston to look into a serial killer.<\/p>\n

The FBI is interested in anything we can add to the investigation.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re sending me?\u201d People instinctively wanted to please Adam. Charles was better at the destroy-and-subdue, not so good at the coax-and-charm. <\/p>\n

\u201cNo,\u201d said his da. \u201cThat would be dumb. I\u2019m sending Anna. You are going as her guard.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I was informed by my second that we should be honored that you were visiting our city. We should bring you gifts and see if we can get you to abandon your pack and join ours.
