The following quote is from Written in My Own Heart’s Blood by Diana Gabaldon, chapter 2, “Dirty Bastard.” Copyright ©️2014 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved.

“‘I’m partial to bastards myself,’ she said, and touched him lightly on the arm. ‘What kind of bastard are you? A wicked one? An evil one?’
‘A sorry one,’ he said, and scowled when she laughed. She saw the scowl but didn’t pull back.
‘Come in,’ she said, and took his hand. ‘You look as though you could do with a drink.’ He saw her glance at his knuckles, burst and bleeding, and she caught her lower lip behind small white teeth. She didn’t seem afraid, though, and he found himself drawn, unprotesting, into the shadowed doorway after her.
What did it matter? he thought, with a sudden savage weariness. What did anything matter?”
