Chapter 22: Lowwater
Cassia's POV
They set the table on the gravel terrace at noon, in the same place.
I had thought I would not be able to look at it.
It was a long plain table of pale wood with two chairs and a lamp.
The river ran behind it, brown and low, and the wind moved the thistles at the edge of the gravel.
The cairn stood to the north with its last stone in place.
On the east hill, in the shelf of grey rock where I had once lain, a figure sat with its legs hanging over the edge.
It lifted a thermos at me.
"Mercy's cousin," Mercy said at my shoulder. "She's got no rifle. She's got coffee and a very strict instruction to wave if anybody blinks."
"Is that supposed to be funny?"
"It's supposed to be useful. I don't know yet which."
I laughed, and the sound came out thin.
Beside me, Dacre stood at the head of the Lycan elders in a black coat.
The iron circlet of the House of Vaughn sat on his brow.
I did not look at him because I would have fallen.
The Court of Packs sat in a half circle on the grass.
Eleven Alphas.
The Silverlake Alpha was among them, holding the Eckert ridge in trust.
He was a lean tired man with a neat grey beard, and he gave me a short, grave nod.
