Trained Obedience

From the very beginning, Ronan had wanted Tisa.

The reasons went beyond her innocence, the fight in her that wanted freedom, or even her young age.

He wanted her to quash the angry curl of control over her, the vile possessiveness to crush her hope of being free.

He's a rough man with a crude demeanor, but he wasn't going to change.

Not for himself and certainly not for her.

What he does works for him; it would be redundant to fix something that was never broken.

He did, however, need to fix that disobedience of hers.
