“A lot of good that did,” Suun said, placing her hands in her hips.

“Just tie them up,” Janna ordered harshly. “We’ve wasted too much time already.”

Varner grabbed at Frye and quickly bound his hands in ropes. Another length tied his feet together. Markle got the same treatment. But instead of getting Markle to his feet, Wach pushed him over sideways. Markle sprawled on the damp forest ground while Wach planted a knee in his side.

Frye froze with apprehension. “What are you doing?”

Janna turned to him while Varner assisted Wach in holding Markle down. “You honestly surprised me, Frye. Trying to keep this little pet’s singing magic abilities a secret from me. You would have succeeded if he hadn’t been so foolish to act against us. Now we know what he is. Sabriea will want to see him, of course. But we can’t have him using his powers against us.”

“What are you doing?” Frye repeated, louder and more desperately.
