"Shut up, Eddie. I'm not planning to do anything strange, and while we do have a lot we still need to do, I'm not about to let you continue down this strange path of thinking. Both of you. If either of you protest, I'll get very angry." Cass didn't want to actually threaten them to remain by his side, but he couldn't deny that there was a pull to do so. What could he say?
He was angry, annoyed, and he felt that they both needed to learn a lesson. Cass was not about to let this stand. His people, the people he'd selected, thinking this way? Had they forgotten how Cass had reacted with Sam? Did no one learn from the past?
