since you have good reasons to hate everybody—and you’re also always
trying to save everybody, so you’re going to be a mess of conflicted
decisions. My point is, the idea of ‘no biases in battle’ is a myth. We all
have them. Especially when there are this many enemies.”
“Too many,” Sophie mumbled under her breath. They seriously had
way too many enemies.
Sandor sighed and rubbed his forehead. “All of that may be true,
but I’m sure you can still see my dilemma.”
“Fine—you want me to prove my loyalty?” Ro countered. “Let me
run the next training session. I’ll teach everyone the easiest ways to
cut down one of my kind.”
Bo cleared his throat. “I don’t think that’s wise.”
“Of course you don’t,” Ro snapped back. “Because you don’t
actually care about this assignment. You’re just here to cause drama
until I agree to give my father whatever he wants to make him
reassign you. And I’m sure that’s what you’re hoping for too, so you
can get out of sparkle town. But guess what, hubby? I’m done giving
either of you what you want. You get to be stuck here with me until
you’re ready to claw your eyes out from all the glitter. And you can
watch me do everything in my power to prepare these kids for the
battles coming their way, because like it or not, they are the only ones
who are going to clean up this mess.”
“See, I was with you right up until you called us kids,” Keefe told
her, and it was a miracle Ro didn’t launch a dagger at his head.
Instead, she straightened up and said to no one in particular, “If
you’re done questioning my loyalty, and you’ve soaked up enough of
my personal drama, follow me and I’ll teach you something that will
save your life.”
