His frustration ebbed as he understood that he had lost. There was no way he could push Ziio so far that she would attack him in desperation to keep him away. He had made the mistake of pushing too hard, and now had nothing. Whatever progress he might have made would have been destroyed anyway the moment she would likely learn of his attempt to kill Connor. And Connor would surely take his long-lost mother's side.
"Have it your way. I will not approach either of you," he relented quietly.
