Death Quote by Cassandra Gannon
““The wolves seemed far more interested in watching Marrok tear him apart. For a heartbeat of time, everyone jsut stared at the graceful ballet of death. 'Do those two have a history I don't know about?' Dow asked conversationally. Richardson nodded. 'Tober punched Marrok's woman.' 'Ooohhhh, that explains it.' Dower snorted. 'Jesus, what kind of wolf hits a girl?””
