It was like she saw right through him, every layer of him; with her next words she cut right to the core of his struggles. He had turned back. He had broken his own rule, and he still wasn't quite sure why.
I had moved on, Tybault defended immediately, thoughtlessly. I went to Sweetharbor, and I was heading to Sapphique, but - And that was where his logic stopped. I was curious about Moonglow. Yes, the lie he'd told himself; he knew it was a lie and surely she would too. Part of him knew that it had something to do with tracker boy, too, but that wasn't the heart of it. He knew that much. He did not, however, want to dig any deeper to find out more.
I'm not giving up, He added, but he couldn't manage the defiance he was going for. Instead, it came out lifeless, as if he was making some half-hearted effort at convincing himself. Maybe he was.
