Interrogation Techniques Charlie Richards

Keeping the Peace: Walking into the interrogation room, a council enforcer realizes Fate has decided to throw him a curveball. Enforcer Delanrue Drudeson is a komodo dragon shifter who's known as the intense brother, the unapproachable one, but he has his reasons. Keeping his brothers safe from a sadistic alpha while growing up meant he'd had to be a careful, manipulative adult...from a very early age. Specializing in interrogation for the last several decades, Delanrue is happy with his life. Then he walks into a secure room where he's supposed to question the occupant by any means necessary-Midget Suvergy, a guinea pig shifter. Except, one sniff tells Delanrue that Midget is his mate-the other half of his soul. Knowing the mate-pull could easily compromise his judgment, he immediately assigns the interrogation duties to another. That doesn't stop him from walking back into that room to be with him. Midget claims just to have been in the wrong place at the wrong time, and to Delanrue's relief, his words scent true. Then word comes down that Midget is wanted for the murder of a member of his guinea pig muddle. Delanrue isn't stupid. It's easy to see that Midget is no killer, no matter what anyone says. Can Delanrue's connections keep Midget safe long enough to clear him from the conspiracy dogging his steps?
