My Secret, My Bully, My Mates (skylar) by Miss l Free novel Chapter 100


Chapter 0100
"Okay, but what do I do about it? And stop laughing at rne_ This is so weird." I flop back on my bed, my long hair fanning out around me. have no experience with boys like this, give me training and beating the crap out of them any day.
"Well, you can go down, sit back on Kota's lap, or whoever caveman's you first and keep having awkward conversations or we can go talk to the adults and make the boys sweat and get their acts together. Eitherway, Pm going to enjoy myself."
"Ugh! Let's go." I have no idea what I am going to do with her suggestion, but once we get back outside, my decision is made for me.
"Skylar! Come here, kiddo, I have a question." We turn and walk towards the adults, leaving the boys watching out retreating backs. "What do you know about border security?" Warrior Nickolas asks when we are close enough.
"A little, I run our border every day and see patrols. I know some areas are more heavily monitored than others. I guess it all depends on the terrain, if the territory on the outside of the borders is open or belongs to a neighboring pack, things like that. Why? I know our territory is a bit different since we are surrounded by water on most sides. I sit in a chair next to him at their table, Slerra next to me. It's almost strange to not be in someone's lap.
"Let me put a hypothetical scenario out there and see what you think "
He spends about ten minutes moving things from the table around giving me general topography. Furthest from me is a mountain range with a lake at the base, what he called the packhouse is to the left of the lake, butting up to the curved end of the range. He hesitated when he said 'packhouse' so this is code for something important. From the packhouse he describes different structures that fan out towards a forest line, like a sun burst. Just beyond the forest line are small clearings, miles apart, each with a different function, but he didn 't elaborate on that.
'[so the dilemma is rogue attacks are corning at different times and from different locations. How would you set up patrols to guard an area like this?"
"That's it?! That's all the info and you want a full patrol schedule?" He just nods his head with a little smirk on his face. Alpha Lucas and the Alpha King are both watching intently givlng nothing away. Okay, I 'Il bite, it's like a pop quizin battle strategy class. I shift forward going into warrior mode. "How many are on patrol at any given time.
"You can have as many as you think you would need to run rotations."
Again, vague. Apparently I am being tested. Alright, let's see.
"Well, there are a lot of variables that I don't have that would help in this situation." I look at him sternly. "For instance what is the mountain range like? Is it all forest and trees? Easy to climb? If that is the case then I would put up watch structures with motion sensors a minimum of a mile out and go up to five miles if the terrain is easy considering how close the pacmouse is to the base of the mountain. If it's all rock and pretty open, less patrol would need to be done from the mountain itself since it could be monitored from the ground and extra resources could be used elsewhere, but motion sensors in both cases would be helpful. I would also run patrols around the lake and have more or less depending on visibility, but it being at the base of the mountain would make it easy for an enemy to sit in the caves and crevices of the mountain and observe across the lake without being seen and the water would dim or mask the
scent.
I grab a drink of water as I analyze the 'forest' portion of his example. I am really getting into my territory dissection, this is way more my speed than all the flirting talk.
