"Does it matter?" he shot back. "I saw the carriage filled with the crates marked 'perishable goods.' I saw them filled with kids and I know where they were going."
He leaned forward as much as his chains would allow.
"And the Partike Organization is involved. That's the real reason I was arrested—not because I killed a puny army guard, but because I saw something I wasn't supposed to see."
Silence fell like a shroud over the interrogation room.
Mira took a step forward, her voice low and dangerous. "Let me kill him, Aldric. Right here. He knows too much, and he's clearly not going to cooperate. We can dump his body below to let the beasts eat it, no one will ever find him."
