[ Cashmere had an honest vibe to her. Other than Kate (and if pressed, Seth would have to give Kisa credit too), he wasn't used to anyone being upfront. Always a con to play. Not much to gain from telling someone you went from being a fighter to call girl to a trainer to a cocktail waitress.

Seth had his share of forward women. At most, they were a fling. He wouldn't stick around with anyone that felt threatening. ]
