1 " Valek coalesced from the shadows and wrapped me in his long lean arms. I soaked in his musky smell, listening to his heart beat. Strong and steady. No indication that he had been sneaking around. "

3 " I signaled when Owen’s wife was linked to him, who was linked to Yelena.” Valek paused, marveling at the intricacies of magical communication. Ixia really needed to find a way to keep up. "

6 " Suppressing his relief, Valek asked, “Can you please tell this Lieutenant who he has arrested?”

“Can do,” Janco said with a smile. “Lieutenant Darren, let me be the first to congratulate you on capturing the elusive and legendary Kelav. He’s been wanted in Ixia for years on multiple counts of espionage. "

7 " Move back,” the man on the left ordered Valek. “Or I’ll skewer your friend.”

Valek considered the threat. “Do you plan to wound, maim or kill him?” he asked the guard.

“Threats should be specific in order to have the maximum impact.”

The man just stared at him.

8 " He pulled back and I recognized the eagerness in his blue eyes. “Interesting problem, though. Could be a bit tricky.”
“Free Leif and then you can play,” I said.
He grinned.
“Promise?”
“If I don’t get to them first.”
“That’s my girl. "
