Garcia's POV
The office fell into silence as the last person exited, leaving only Herbert, Philip, and me seated on the leather couch. My finger hovered over the play button before I pressed it, and the screen flickered to life.
We watched intently as the young woman appeared on the footage, her posture defeated as she slouched in the chair beside the desk. Her voice trembled as she recounted her story to the previous Alpha and Gamma. I replayed the recording twice more, scrutinizing every gesture, every pause, searching for details we might have overlooked.
After analyzing the footage thoroughly, I nodded to Herbert. He understood immediately and left to retrieve Alpha Ted from the living room.
Ted settled into the armchair across from us, his expression serious. I leaned forward, studying his face as I posed my first question.
"Why exactly did Collin remain at the Pack house that night?"
