Chapter 14

EVERYONE’S ASLEEP NOW. I’m out here all alone, just me, so I can talk to you in private. I love being out here alone at night, with nothing but your bright light leading the way.

My mother hated them, would never go near one, and wouldn’t let me, either. But I sneaked away from her and rode them, anyway. And after I used the power on her, I could ride anything I wanted, any time, any place.
