“They didn’t,” Bitch said.
“How can you be sure?”
Maybe because of nuances to Bastard’s behavior?
“He smelled like the forest when I got him.”
While I see the point, they could’ve just put the tracking device in and then had him run wild for a while. They’ve been in town since at least Sentinel, they’ve had plenty of time.
“It would have taken them seconds to stick it in him. It would mean there was a way to find you. Find us.”
They already had that when they gave her Bastard, so unless they expected to lose Cherish, there wouldn’t be much reason to do it.
“No. Doesn’t make sense, what she was talking about. Being free. Accepting that we’re animals.”
She wouldn’t put a wireless leash on you, is that what you’re saying?
“I wonder about that,” Lisa said, pulling her feet up so she was sitting cross-legged on the sofa. “Maybe she was playing you?”
Rachel didn’t seem to even entertain that notion.
“Is she really that smart?” Alec asked. “Jack is smart. Bonesaw, Mannequin, sure, to varying degrees. But Siberian?”
I mean, why not? She behaves ferally and all that, but she’s got a brain. Presumably.
“My instinct?” Lisa shrugged. “She’s an actor. Playing up the feral angle, hiding a deeper strategy. She might even be playing a long con on her team. Or maybe her intentions are pure but she’s keeping them in the dark about the key stuff.”
Huh…
I wonder if the rest of the team even knows she can talk.
