Father’s unusual promise
Markon had promised Lucas a fun trip, but Lucas had sensed something off. “It didn’t feel right, Mom.
He kept looking over his shoulder and whispered a lot,” Lucas explained. The name Roger rang a bell, but I couldn’t place it.

This wasn’t just a fight for my future, it was for Lucas’s safety too.
