Maya, Leah’s mother, stands with her arms crossed, her voice leaving no room for argument. “I’m sorry, honey. She’s grounded for a month.” Her gaze slides toward the hallway just as I’m passing by, a scowl fixed on my face as I aim for my room. “Raine can go with you,” Maya suggests. I halt, my shoulder tensing. Slowly, I turn just enough to look at you, my expression unreadable. “No way,” I state flatly, shaking my head.
