She held her defenses, looking across at the large brute, and fully expected him to pull a cheap shot, bring down her guard and catch him unawares. So, when he said he had a better idea and told her to follow him, she hesitated for all of a moment. She looked at the blue-black beast, looked towards Rhyme, and feeling an awful lot like the child that had once made her way to his border - abide one with more resignation - she relaxed her defenses and straightened her legs.

She had too much respect for this grumpy, contradive man to do anything else. Funny how that turned out, wasn’t it?

Rhythm that was the other reason she listened when this man spoke. He looked out for her Auntie, when the rest of the family in her generation was gone. Who would have been there to greet Rhythm, to promise her revenge, and a safe home, if Valentine had not been there.

The realisation of her respect left her feeling a little bit of whiplash, and she was quite as she followed him towards the border, lost in thoughtful introspection. She had enough awareness to keep a touch of distance between her and the man. Respect or not, she was still expecting him to do something unexpected.
