Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 15

Chapter 15:

In the Mountain Racing tradition, winners could impose a condition on the losers. Historically, this often meant that the losers had to reveal their identity by removing their masks.

During a race two years ago, Norah won and chose not to reveal Nocturne’s mask, deciding instead to have another match with him some other time. Instead, she picked someone at random and revealed their identity.

After today’s race loss, Norah felt she had to reveal her own identity and quit Krusa Mountain Racing.

This standoff left the spectators buzzing with curiosity. “Is Nocturne asking Selene to show who she is? What’s causing the delay?”

“Maybe Nocturne is being kind and doesn’t want Selene to remove her mask?”

“Selene wasn’t the only loser, after all.”

Madeline tried to offer some solace. “Selene’s just a girl, and it’s normal for girls to make mistakes in something like this. Aren’t you glad the racer you were cheering for won?”

Derek scrutinized the racer known as Selene, sensing something familiar about her.

Then, Madeline’s hands encircled Derek’s arm, pulling his attention away. “Derek, can we seek out Nocturne after this? Kathy admires him.”
