Zayne whimpered. He was highly dissatisfied with Jay's little arrangement. In Zayne's view, the patriarch would have sent someone to personally escort the elderly, weaker women, and children to safe passage. The real battlefield was outside, and he was a man. Men should be willing to sacrifice themselves on the battlefield.

Angeline was also dissatisfied with Jay's arrangement. She took Jay's hand and said somewhat coquettishly, "You said we wouldn't be separated, Jaybie."

Knowing that he was a clever and eloquent speaker, Angeline deliberately emphasized, "No matter what."
