This was a stupid idea

Eligos continued, revealing that he'd left the best part out of his initial opening. Azure's brows raised in interest, but he said nothing while the wolf spoke. This was not an alpha who was coming to them for peace for his pack, it was a man on his last legs trying to make amends while he was still alive to make them. That fact had seemed to occur to his father as well, who'd took control of the conversation to ask point blank if Eli needed protecting. It was not a secret that the Armada warlord had a protective streak, and the habit to welcome wolves beneath his umbrella that had no business being there. Azure gritted his teeth in silence as his father spoke.

Blowing out a short breath from between his teeth, Azure ventured a question of his own. "Eligos, answer me truthfully. Should you work within our pack for a season you would undeniably discover more about the Armada then any non-Empire wolf has any right to know." He spared a glance at his father, hoping Sirius would share his thoughts on this and not allow his softness to control him outright. "What are your plans for if our enemies contract you to divulge that information, or hire your replacement a year from now to move against us using it? Do you understand my hesitance in allowing a mercenary pack to learn where our food is stored, how many capable fighters we have, how many children, how often our patrols are run?" Eligos' apparent approaching death meant next to nothing to the Champion, and while Az himself would appreciate the year of peace while his children grew strong, he could not risk it blowing back on them when Eligos was dead and gone.
