AN ASSASSINATION INVESTIGATION (2)

Elena walked to the balcony and looked down.

"There are no ropes or anything." Xaden said looking down.

"You have no idea what you're dealing with." Elena told him and she went on ahead back into the room and went straight for the baths.

She opened the door and she stepped down on her knees and examined the woman's body.

Xaden, Erik and Damian joined her.

The body was now partially pale and her eyes were still wide open.

Her olive skin was now almost white because of how long it floated in the red water, and her black hair hung in the water.

Even in death she was extremely beautiful.

Elena looked over her and touched her head.

"There is a spot under her neck." Xaden informed.

Elena looked at it. "You're right. This is a dessert wolf."

"What's a dessert wolf doing here?" He asked. "They are outlawed."
