Unfortunately for the both of them, thought-speaking only works in a morph. David can broadcast it, but he can't hear it from Claire.
David has no idea Claire's right outside his wire prison, close enough to touch. He's in the same place he ran to when he first realized Claire was in the room - hunkered down under the running wheel, buried in the shavings, little rat body trembling. His eyes are closed, his paws over them.
To have her see him like this... he doesn't know if he could bear it.

[ Spam ] - This is just like the first book, except it's David instead of Jake. And he's a rat. :|
