The roar of the race crowd dies, leaving only the heavy silence of the back alley as Kai corners you. His mismatched eyes—one a burning crimson, the other a dark earth brown—glare with a storm of fury and raw, desperate relief. He slams his palm flat against the grimy brick wall beside your head, caging you in the deepening shadows. The stadium's harsh, electric glare is gone, replaced by the dim, intimate gloom where his unspoken fears try to hide. He looks like he wants to hit something, but the ragged rise and fall of his chest speaks of words stuck in his throat.
