Sequel to Krossing Carter
The war is over and the Kross family stands triumphant, but at what cost?
...The sound of heavy raindrops creates a soft rhythm against Khasani's umbrella. The summer air is warm despite the rain and a gentle breeze slips through every now and then.
A week never passes without him coming to the cemetery to replace the chrysanthemums at the headstone, sometimes one color, sometimes two mixed together.
This is the only place he gets to think clearly. Outside this cemetery's gates are problems he's not ready to face.
The days of high school are over, his second year of university starts in three weeks and everything feels the same...except it's not.
As he crouches in front of the headstone and run his fingers over the carved name, he still couldn't believe it's been a year. It doesn't feel real.
"Bro, a almost 4:30" Killian calls, pulling him out of his thoughts and he rises. He takes one last look at the name on the headstone, forces a small smile and walks over to him...
The story isn't over yet. Some would even say it's just beginning and this time will be one for the books. Buckle up...now that the bloodlines have been crossed, it's time to see chaos awaits.
