He looked away and gave a small laugh, wondering if his father was assembling a harem since the land seemed absent of men besides himself and Vengeance. "Are you another one of Vengeance's broads?" he asked, implying she and the other women were his father's property. Two could play at the insult game though he meant it in no real offense.
