Even if I hadn't liked every one in my family, I still cried after them. I didn't understand why I had to leave them. Why neither my mother nor father wanted me. Why they never touched me, not as they did with Ryssa and Styxx.
When I had been sent to Estes, it was no better than what I had experienced at home. Estes had been cruel. He seemed easy to anger and there was things you didn't show in front of him. Crying was one thing.
If I felt I needed to I just didn't do it when any one could see. There had been times that I let my tears run, but it had resulted in beatings. In the beginning I heard a Tsoulus didn't show any weakness. Tears were a weakness, not a proof of humanity.
As with so many other things I had learned the hard way I also learned to keep things from being visible. It was much easier to do it alone and within myself. Would I ever fail and show anything other than a sex lust I soon had the whip on my back.
In the beginning the nights had been harsh; I had no one that came to try and comfort me, not as Ryssa had done at home. All I got was what was expected of a Tsoulus. That everything had its price.
