Geoff's Third Letter

Page #3
Part of the following chapter The Fur Trade #9
Sabotage

Hah! Caryn has no idea the scope of what we did. Sure, she took out Benet, and Piers. But she still doesn't know about the wolves. Oh, she suspects something, but she's so short sighted, not like us. We weren't only here for lynx fur. We've been flooding the local wolf den with alchemical concoctions to make them more violent. They were already getting that way from having to compete with the lynx for food, but now they are a real menace. They are so dangerous, people pay us to kill them. So we get paid twice, once for their deaths, and then again with their furs. Wait, I hear something outside. Is it the snarl of a wolf? Did Caryn lure one here? Forgive me, my love, but I have to check. I hope this letter makes it to you someday if I do not return. ~Your Dearest Geoff
