"Day 1. Peyton Daltrey told me to kneel and lick coffee off the floor. Lark Bexley had already been made to wipe it with her sleeve."

"Peyton Daltrey."

She was still holding the table leg.

"Yes," Peyton whispered.

"Day 2. A basket came to the omega dorm, tagged Love, Mom. The tea in it was laced with moonflower."

I turned my head.

For a while I thought he wouldn't.

"Yes," he said. "Through the Beta's people."
