Quote by Nalini Singh

“So, you tumbled that wolf you were with?” Mercy was too much a pack animal to take offense at the personal question.

Felch slumped to the ground in a shaking heap. Tagg's voice was flat and hard as he turned to face Sawney. "I'm sorry to disobey your order. The fox is a sorry thief, but I will not take the life of a helpless beast.”
