A little window above her opened. A man stood looking down at her. "Finally awake, huh?" He asked with a sly smile.
Diaval groaned.

"Get the girl in my car then hurry back to help me get the boy, he's a shifter too. I can sense it." He smiled.
"Thank you for loving me." He replied softly. "No one has every shown me love before."

Astrid squeled as she looked behind her, and began to run faster.
Upon hearing the voice, Luce quickly got to her feet. Seeing the open window, she pleaded to the man. "Please! This is a mistake. I did nothing wrong! Why am I locked up like a criminal? You have no right to keep me here!!" She screamed the last part.

(Talk about a bomb shell! I didn't expect him to admit to something like that, he's such a toughy. I had to take my time with this response.

Carrow froze at his words. For they were an exact reflection of her very own sentiments. "No, Buchanan. There is not need to thank me for that. From the moment I laid eyes on you, I think, I knew we were kindred spirits. In fact, I felt as if an invisible tether was holding the two of us together. Because of all the days, with all the weeks, within all the months, that add up to all the years, of me sitting on the courthouse steps. Only one individual ever captured my interest and that was you. I too have never felt love, until this very moment with you. I would have known it before now, because Eagles are monogamous. We only love once." She explained to him.

Raine smiled devilishly at Astrid, as he ran after her. Oh, she'd get it. He was in a ticketing mood.
