James can have a temper, but knows better than to let it rise when dealing with someone Connor's age. Funny how dealing with a young man reminds him of the old governors of Nassau with their stubbornness and denial.

As far as James is concerned, Edward is learning the truth--one way or another. And, to be honest, he'd prefer to be the one to tell him his future son is a Templar. Connor is too close to this.

"Protect him by telling him the truth. Be honest," he repeats.
