Jamie was no longer hungry. How could he be?? The round globe of the fruit lay forgotten in his hand as he was forced to watch the slaughter below, bile rising in his throat as yet another bolt of light seared into another bug and it crumpled to the ground below. And Sobek watched, smug and complacent that his lesson was being driven home
The man was a monster. As terrible as Benik - no, worse - with much more power at his fingertips. Once again, Jamie was glad that Victoria wasn't there. It would be all too easy for him to use Jamie's feelings for her against him, manipulate things to his own ends, and then throw her away like a broken doll that was no longer wanted. Just as he was throwing away the lives of Eneesh's crew, all to teach Jamie a lesson.
Or...to try and get him to talk, reveal the secrets of the morpher. If he said something, would the death stop? Another bug fell, a hole burned into its carapace, feelers twitching one last time before becoming still. Without entirely making a conscious decision to do so, Jamie blurted out, "The morphers. They were given to me."
