Standing before Kayden with arms akimbo, Thane's eyes gleamed with unspoken contempt.
But just watching him munch into a fruit once again made Thane's frown deepen.
Was he always this foody?
"Hey, you there! Just stop it. Do you realize you just woke me up from my sleep?" Thane snapped, voice laced with irritation.
One thing Thane cherished was his peace and quiet—and this bee before him had just ruined everything.
"Why aren't you taking—Haa! Did you just—" Thane halted mid-sentence when Kayden held up a hand, signaling him to stop talking.
Thane stared, dumbfounded. Had he just been cut off?
If his parents had witnessed this, they would have been shocked beyond reason. No one—no one—had interrupted Thane mid-sentence in years, let alone stopped him from speaking outright. But this... this strange boy here had done it without a blink.
And if that didn't catch his attention, the way Kayden chewed that apple definitely did.
