when he grew up.

To Emmanuel’s surprise, Abellyn took advantage of his words and screeched,

“You hear that, Ryder? Your cousin cooks at home, too! You’re just an

Ryder clutched his throbbing chest, finding it hard to breathe suddenly.

“Ryder, are you all right? There, there. Stop fighting already.”
