Rain's Rebellion
“You wouldn’t die for her.”
“Of course I would,” Adam argued. “I love Rain. I’d do anything for her.” She said nothing, only prodded him along. “Haven’t you ever loved anyone before, Mother?”
“No.” Her answer came quickly enough that time, “Not a person. Only the country. Only the Motherhood.”
Before he could even consider what her reaction might be, Adam found himself saying, “That’s really sad.”
“No, it’s not,” she said in her own defense. “You don’t understand what it’s like to be a part of something like the Motherhood, to know that I’m fulfilling the destiny of all womankind.”
