The Aryan dynasty had been my father s business for so long a time that he hadn t always had time enough for me, his only daughter. I was never the girl to please my mother (for I disliked all male specimens but those that shared my giant household and the kitchen staff that had learned to condone my less-than-female appetite so she couldn t exactly play matchmaker for me, and I couldn t, for the life of me, understand the importance of public appearance and enhancement of one s own beauty: one was either born with it, or one was not) in this way, I shall be obliged to carry on my previous sentence, I was a child of my brothers, raised to be like them because in the cradle of each of their arms, I felt I belonged.
