He raised an eyebrow, momentarily caught off guard. “What kind of game?”

Caden pondered for a moment before nodding. “Alright.”

“You go first,” I insisted, wary of any tricks he might pull. I pointed ahead to make sure he followed the rules.

Holding my gaze, he smirked. “I’ll prove fate is on my side.”
