IT WASN’T the most civil werewolf interrogation Clive had ever seen, but he understood the need for violence during desperate times. They didn’t rip off his arms or yank out any organs, so that was a relief. Clive looked at Jeremy, who was seated on the now-clean floor with his head slumped on his fist. That killing intent he had sensed when he first met Jeremy briefly returned during the questioning. The magical consultant was oblivious to how the pack leader’s aggression wasn’t only a product of being betrayed but an instinctual attempt to reclaim dominance over the human in his werewolf’s eyes. Jeremy received sidelong glances as if he would suddenly turn dangerous in his sleepy state. Clive knew he should reprimand Jeremy for obviously taking a drug before the trip, but this was the second time he’d ingested something strange to meet a powerful being. What is it about his magic that he wants to hide?

“Sit up straight,” Delaware’s pack leader ordered. “You have no right to hide your face in shame.”

The traitor reluctantly pushed his elbows out and held his head higher.

“Why did you take the job?” Clive asked. Dennis stood right behind him, and Clive tried to ignore the large amount of energy coming off the man. He could be a lifetime buffet to an energy vamp if draining from creatures with souls attached to animals didn’t cause insanity.

“I got fired recently, and the guy’s ad promised easy money. I’d seen a similar ad from the guy last year, and the werewolf who answered it just bought a new car.”

“Who else answered it?”

“Stephen, but he’s probably back at the hotel healing after that Amazon broke him,” the traitor muttered as he rubbed the front of his neck. “Energy vamps say healing is a waste on us when we fuck up.”

Mark threw down a notebook next to the traitor. “Write down every name you’ve heard since you’ve been slumming, and you might make it out of this alive.”

“Does my momma know?” the traitor whispered, picking up the pen and opening the notebook.

“If you were concerned about her, you shouldn’t have taken the job,” Mark said.

“What were your orders?” Simone asked.

“Follow you around and steal anything that looked interesting.” The traitor scribbled on paper as he glanced at her. “And I was supposed to take you or the other witch if I could get you alone.”

Like a snake crawling on Clive’s spine, a murderous concentration of thought emanated from Jeremy.

“What were they going to do with us once they had us?” Jeremy asked softly, a slight gleam in his eyes.

The traitor shifted as if he was changing the position of his legs to get comfortable, but he managed to turn so only his back was to Jeremy. “I don’t know. I was doing what I was told.”

“Kidnapping a person from another pack and possibly starting a war for money?” Simone shook her head in disbelief. “You’re a dumb fuck if I ever saw one.”

“What were your other orders?” Clive asked as deadly intent began leaking from Simone too.
