“Okay,” I replied. “Thank you, Denny. Alpha Theo is right. We still have to command you. Being a rogue for so long, I understand that it can be uncomfortable. But as long as you stick to our agreement and don’t fight it, there shouldn’t be any pain.”

“I get it.” Denny replied.

I linked Theo to have him remove the chains holding Denny in place. I didn’t think keeping him restrained would encourage him that we were making a genuine offer. I was trying to gain some trust.

Denny’s eyes narrowed as he examined the photo for a few moments.

“It could be him,” he said hesitantly. “I really didn’t get a good look at him.”

“Any details you can give us could help,” I said.

Again, he thought.

“Oh, he’s a lot of scars,” Denny said. “There’s a nasty one on his throat. Makes him sound strange. I didn’t really see it, but some of the others had mentioned it several times. And I did see his hands. They’re covered.”

I looked at Kingston. He nodded. It was Grogan.

“Okay, tell us everything that has happened since you first heard about the Boss,” I asked.

We spoke with Denny for a couple of hours, going over details multiple times. I was feeling the commands start to take a toll on me. I had to concentrate harder than I thought to maintain control of my energy without going too far. Several times, Theo had to link me to pull back before I started to hurt Denny.

“I think we have enough for today.” Theo finally insisted.

I nodded. It was getting late. Giving Denny a gentle smile, I rose from my seat. Theo’s hand went to the small of my back.
