    Summary

    Andrew lifted an eyebrow, and it tore a jagged hole in Kevin’s composure. How disconcerting it was to not know exactly what these eyes on him, this slight raise of a brow, meant.

    Kevin had devoted a decade to learning Riko’s body language. He always knew what was brewing behind those dark eyes, what the slight tip of his head indicated. Kevin knew when to pull back to avoid the shrapnel from his coming explosion, knew when his rage was malleable enough for Kevin to risk pushing closer – rolling the dice on defusing his vitriol.

    For Riko, this raise of an eyebrow was impatience, and it dragged Kevin into a memory so sharp it pricked his lungs with every shallow inhale he managed.

    Or, Kevin may be free from the Nest, but he isn't free from its conditioning. Follow him as he grapples with Andrew not being Riko 2.0
