Deceit, at its Best

Fin could do nothing but glare as the man talked down to her as though she were a dumb little pup. All he needed to do was give her a pat on the head and the whole incident would have been complete. The thought brought a low growl out of her throat. She didn't like this creepy, and she didn't like this creepy pack he came from. Peregrine would certainly be hearing of this place, even if she left out some of the finer points of their conversation. After all, she knew her friend well. He would never allow her to continue her search for the supposed "murderer", and Fin was definitely going to do that after this conversation.

The Blackthorn turned away and broke into a quick lope, eager to get away from this creepy-ass place. The name Noctisardor Bypass remained in her mind as she went. If Adair was there, then she was definitely going to check it out. Then they would see.
