But the man who says he’s rescuing her doesn’t think so. He says she should have a chance to decide for herself what she wants. She doesn’t understand.
Until he releases her from her owner’s control, and suddenly she does.
She understands the sick cruelty behind everything her owner made her enjoy.
She understands how it feels to like something without being programmed to like it. A good book. The sound of laughter. The sun on her face.
But she doesn’t understand her rescuer’s true motives.
Not until it’s too late.
