"No," Ray insisted quickly, surprising even himself. "I don't need him."

Fraser knew what had happened, everything, knew Ray's part in it all. The rational side of him didn't believe Fraser would say anything, but the other side, the side in control right now, didn't want Asher anywhere near the truth, even in tight-lipped Mountie form.

He did move away with Asher though, his acquiescence calculated. Give him that much and he might not push the question of bringing Fraser here.
