He wanted to be afraid of this, but he couldn't be. The snarl did nothing to change Tucker's expression; it had that lowkey anger that wouldn't fade, turned inward. The questions were valid ones, but they pissed Tucker off just the same; he wasn't asking if she was hurt; he was asking about numbers.
