Kate's POV I swallowed. “It said it was going to kill them. I don't know, but it seems they have been able to find out that Orion and Ravenna are around." Keto's fists were clenched at his waist. His eyes burned with some passion I could not identify, anger and fear combined. "Damn it," he muttered beneath his breath. "We have to track them down. Now." Captain Zack stepped forward, his face pale but still carrying that rough crevice of his. "What the devil is going on here? I believe it is time someone told me the truth." Kira folded her arms, her voice firm but icy. "The less you know, the better it will be for you." "The hell it is," Zack growled. "My men were frozen and nearly killed by some creature out of a horror novel. We're putting our lives at risk here, so don't tell me I don't need to know.". Keto turned to him, his voice deadly calm and low. "You need to understand one thing: remain alive and follow my instructions. That is not your fight." Zack snorted. "Not my f
