'No matter how capable Stella Sterling is, she couldn't have killed Selene Larkin inside Sanctyr Base. If she really did that, there's no way she would have left Sanctyr Base alive.'

"Do you have any idea how heartless a man Miles Sanctus is? And you're pinning your hopes on him?"
Stella Sterling shook her head.
Worry flared in River Larkin's heart again. The Miles Sanctus he knew truly did prioritize his own interests above all else, placing little value on sentiment.
