I nod, smoothing my top and take a deep breath, squaring my shoulders.“So, there are a few things we all need to remember. For some reason, they want Sebastian and me apart. Two; we need to find their location and three; it’s high time I find out who Annalise talked to at your pack Atticus, and mor
ZAIA. “I want to speak to him,” I say firmly, looking at the men who stand outside the small prison facility where werewolves are kept until they await trial. Most things are handled by local law enforcement unless it involves something very personal to werewolves. “We can’t allow that. I’m afrai
