I explicitly told you to hire the most skilled rogue wolves for this task! Yet, you failed at something so incredibly simple. What if Iskander traces this back to me?"
She almost shouted the last words, but caught herself just in time, snapping her head toward the closed door to make sure no one was listening in the corridor.
