Somebody attacked the frat house.
I let go of River and reach for my phone, then scroll over to a text I got earlier today.
Kratos
im in harmony hanging out with some biker friends wanna meet up for dinner
Pandora
I’m cramming for tests. Is Ares with you?
Kratos

nvm were gonna do a thing
Pandora
a thing?
Kratos
a biker thing gonna show some dudes not to disrespect uh something idk i wasnt paying attention
River looks down at my phone, grabbing it from me and reading over the texts. His expression darkens. “Why the fuck would your biker brother have it in for some frat? Did you say something about Carly?”
I shake my head. “No way! I already handled that, anyway. It must have been somewhere else.”
But just in case, I take my phone back and text Kratos.
Pandora
how did your thing go?
It immediately shows that it’s been read, and that’s probably not a good sign.
Kratos
fucking awesome other guys were pissing themselves
glad you dumped river hes still a loser
Pandora
He isn’t. Shut up about River.
River grits his teeth. “When Blaze finds out a Pavone was there…” He doesn’t continue his thought.
“If,” I correct him, but I’m curious now. “What do you think would happen, River?”
He’s quiet again before saying, “I don’t know. The Bouchards have the most power here, but at the same time, he’s fucking infatuated with you.”
I smile widely. “Exactly. Blaze is reasonable like that. Anyway, what’s a little, um… fist fight? Between rivals. I’ll tell Kratos to leave you all alone, and it’ll be fine.”
I do kind of wish I’d been there though. It would have been fun to see the carnage. I’ll have to ask Kratos who else he went with, though, since it sounds like he really only tagged along for the hell of it.
