Chapter 2
Kael parked the Ducati in front of a brick-walled house with white fences and flowerpots that looked suspiciously handmade.
Compared to his family’s place in Velmora City, this looked like a dollhouse.
He swung his leg off the bike, stretched lazily, then walked up the porch like he hadn’t disappeared all night.
Kael's grandma
(from inside, loud)
KAEL VELORA, HAVE YOU LOST YOUR DAMN MIND?!
Kael Ravencourt
(calmly)
Good morning to you too.
Kael's grandma
(appearing from kitchen, rolling pin in hand)
Don’t you sass me! Driving all night? In the dark? With that death trap you call a bike?
Kael Ravencourt
It’s a Ducati.
Kael's grandma
It’s a demon on wheels! And your father called me at five in the morning thinking you were kidnapped!
Kael Ravencourt
(blunt)
I wasn’t.
Kael's grandma
Lucien told him everything! You ran off in the middle of the night—again!
Kael Ravencourt
(sighing)
I needed air.
Kael's grandma
So you drove to another town instead of opening a window?
Kael Ravencourt
Windows are boring.
Kael's grandma
(pointing at him)
Don’t start that rich-boy attitude with me. I changed your diapers.
Kael Ravencourt
(shrugging)
And now you’re yelling at me. That’s growth.
Kael's grandma
Kael, this isn’t funny! What if something had happened?
Kael Ravencourt
I’d handle it.
Kael's grandma
You’re not invincible.
Kael Ravencourt
(Tilting his head)
No. Just hard to replace.
She looked heavenward like she was praying for strength.
Kael's grandma
(muttering)
I should've let your father install the trackers.
Kael Ravencourt
He already did. I broke them.
Kael's grandma
Of course you did.
She turned and stomped back toward the kitchen.
Kael's grandma
(yelling over her shoulder)
Go wash your face. You smell like smoke and arrogance!
Kael Ravencourt
(under breath, smirking)
One’s cologne.
Kael went towards bathroom.
