"But you used Maddie?" Dane cocks a brow at me, though I could see he was annoyed with my actions.

"It was her idea. She thought that if she could connect with Blair over what Cooper did to them both, she might relax a little."

"And?" He rocks in his desk chair.

“And nothing. Blair didn't lie like I was expecting her too, she was forthcoming with information. She got on with the job, accepting everything that Madison was showing her. If we didn't know her past, you would think she was an outstanding member of the pack."

"Most likely because you were watching her?" He mutters. "She fears you, of course she is not going to step out of line. But you really believe she is telling the truth?"

"As much as I hate her and would gladly use her skin as a flag to warn off other assholes, she ain't lying. I never thought I would say it, but Cooper broke her in more ways than I could ever imagine. I saw something that I have never seen in her before." Did I want to admit it? No. Did I really want to tell Dane? No. But it was better for it to come from me.

"Yes." I answer curtly. "The bitch has empathy."
