Chapter 18: Her Pockets
Cordelia held up a folded square of pale paper in the moonlight.
"Autumn Ostley wrote this herself," she said, in her warm, clear, reasonable voice. "She sent a guard to her own door with it, so the Alpha-to-be would feel sorry for her."
"I found it in the east room, under the bed."
She had not been in the east room since the night of the note.
Nobody in the meadow said so.
They were all looking at the paper, and at her face, and some of them wanted to believe it.
I stood up.
"Cordelia," I said. "You always have something useful in your pockets."
"I try to."
"Do you have a pen?"
Her smile held.
"Of course."
"Then show us," I said. "Everything in that coat."
"I won't be searched in front of the pack."
"You came out here with proof," said Lottie, cracking her knuckles. "Prove it."
"I can turn them out myself," said Cordelia, and she did not move.
The Keeper raised her stick a little.
"Child, the pack is watching."
Cordelia's eyes went to her father.
The Beta stood at the edge of the ring with a bloody mouth and a swollen face.
He did not say a word.
She took off the coat slowly and laid it on the grass.
Lottie crouched and turned the pockets out with one pull.
There was a pen, a good one, with a nib that had split at the tip.
There was a small pad of thin pale paper.
There was a folded square of lavender-scented cloth.
And there was a note, folded in four, with my name across the front.
Lottie opened it and held it to the moonlight.
"Autumn come to the north border gate," she read. "Lottie is hurt and asking for you. Please hurry. Tell no one."
"That's the same words," I said. "That's a spare copy."
