Do you want anything? Pax will take it from you. Like something? Pax will destroy this. Do you love him? Heaven help you. Because you have to be the stupidest person on earth. PAX I’m not complicating anything. I'm damn sure I won't get caught up in love. The end of school is approaching. I spent almost four years at Wolf Hall without getting involved with any girls. And I especially don't want anything to do with her: Presley. Maria. Whitton. Chase. A timid little mouse with red hair who can't even look my way without choking. She's nothing to me. Beautiful, sure, but I've been with a lot of beautiful women. I'm quite content to ignore her......until her life is suddenly in my hands. PRESS loved him from the moment I first saw him. The cruel, ink-stained anarchist from Riot -House. He's evil and cold, there's nothing good left in him. I'm afraid of him almost as much as I'm thirsty. With only a few weeks left until graduation, all I have to do is keep my head down and then I'll be free. I can leave Mountain Lakes and my obsession with Pax Davis in the rearview mirror. But the demons I've hidden for years are getting restless...... and only Pax can keep them at bay. This is not an act of kindness. Not an act of love. Not an act of forgiveness. You won't find redemption here. This is the last riot. ACT ACCORDINGLY.
