"I may be young, but I'm not blind." Zev's voice was cold, his words heavy with resentment toward Ken.

Kelly froze but remained silent.

Kelly understood. Zev's anger wasn't about her. Still, something about it made her uneasy; maybe it was the sheer weight of his hatred toward Ken. She was scared it might cloud his judgment.
