*Multi 21, Seb.* The team order crackled in my ear, a directive to hold position. I pressed the throttle instead. Now, with the adrenaline still singing in my veins, I shove the door to the cool-down room open. Mark is already there, perched on the edge of a bench, his back a rigid line of fury. The air is thick, almost brittle with everything left unsaid. Do I enjoy this hostility? No. But the win is real, a tangible warmth in my chest. I let out a slow breath, a shrug felt more than seen, and snag a water bottle from the table. The cap twists off with a sharp click. I lift it to my lips and drink, a long, steady pull, my gaze meeting the middle distance—a silent, defiant answer to the storm in the room.
