Kabras do not feel nervousness.
Kabras do not get sweaty palms and heightened jitteriness and indecision.
He was above all that.
Ian stepped up to the front door of the Cahill mansion, a dozen red roses clasped firmly in his hand.
Kabras do not feel nervousness.
He put out a hand, and reached for the doorbell.
Kabras do not get jumpy flutterings in their stomachs every time they laid eyes on Amy Cahill's shiny red hair and sea-green eyes…
Focus!
Kabras always focus.
Kabras do not feel nervousness.
Ian firmly pressed on the doorbell, and waited.
