Hybrid’s frown returned for a moment, wondering how she could be so certain she was not a coward. He had met a few females over the years, and they had been less than desirable. In fact, he had despised many of them. The only females he could immediately recall were the ones who he held some sort of grudging respect for or those he had truly disliked. His mother ranked very highly in the list of those he disliked. She had abandoned him enough for Hybrid to understand her role was neither to her family nor to Inferni.


He flinched when Vieira spoke again, not realizing he had let his mind wander. His frown deepened as he tried to remember if he had missed anything. What had Vieira looked like? Had she grimaced? He needed to know if she was telling the truth. There were no places for cowards in Inferni; Hybrid would make damn sure of it.

“How can you know? What are you... that you can know?” He asked, adding the second question on almost as an afterthought. Her admission, I am what I am told confused him. How could she be what she was told? Did she have no desire in her actions?
