If she'd been a more intuitive wolf, she would have realized at once that his tone was sullen and sad. Instead, she continued about her merry way until he mentioned the absence of his brother. She furrowed her brow. “Atticus…” she murmured, faintly remembering the (literally) absent-minded sibling of her mate. He'd also been the father of Bones, and she winced inwardly at that thought. But that led to another theory on her part. Perhaps stupidly, she assumed Peregrine was thinking the same thing. Had she even told him of the appearance (and subsequent disappearance) of his niece? She could have sworn she had, but she could not recall. She knew she had told Atticus, that was certain.

“I think it was Bones,” replied Fox. “She came back, and… they did terrible things to her when they took her. I told Atticus, and…” she trailed off. Had he sought revenge on Tortuga? It was a death wish, if that was his intention, and Fox grimaced at the thought. If he did make it, she hoped that he tore Cutlass limb from limb and spat on her carcass. That was assuming he made it past the sentries that were surely keeping watch.
