Dear Devil
A calmness so complete that even now, it seemed Basil’s soul could not escape the room.
“Beta Ace!”
The sharp call tore Ace from his trance. He gasped, startled, as Austin’s voice reached him over and over. He had been waiting outside the Heaven’s Gate territory in the car for his Luna when Council wolves brought him in to speak with the Council, but now Austin’s questioning had dragged him back into the nightmare that had haunted his every waking moment.
“Did you see anything the night Alpha Basil was killed?” Austin repeated, his tone sharp and demanding.
Ace remained silent, trembling, sweat beading his forehead, eyes unfocused.
