I rolled that around in my mind for a moment. “Let me get this straight. The Hrnnna we talked to earlier were pretty clearly freaked out by how Haley looked or smelled or something-”
[Unsurprising. Her transformed self is nearly identical to the troops the Abominators used for hand to hand combat.]
We’d suspected based on the Hrnnna’s reaction to her, but I felt my jaw drop at the jet’s confirmation.
Since hearing the story of how she broke up with Sean, I’d suspected that the biggest part of her unhappiness about her change came from the fear surrounding the police investigation that followed the breakup. That and the fact that she didn’t feel like she could control her transformation.
Confirmation that she was so close to one of the Abominators’ slave races wouldn’t help.
