Heron Lake Plateau If he ever singles you up, if he's ever stupid enough

Towhee followed up with a bribe. Was it right to bribe your upset younger siblings? Probably not, but Fiadh was looking for ways to improve her standing or at least win back her elder sister's regard, so she turned, albeit a little reluctantly, to face the Alpha once more. She didn't really know how to describe what she and Clo had done, though.

"I don't know," she answered honestly. "Clover went for his one side so it just made sense to go for the other one. Dude's only got one mouth and one eye, he couldn't fight us on both sides." Besides, the Blackthorns were badass. She'd always considered Towhee to be the most badass of them, and that hadn't changed just because she was upset about the ranks. She didn't think she could give the mercenary any tips that Towhee didn't already know. Fiadh had only done what made sense to her, which had evidently been the right thing.
