Can’t a man smile?

Good morning, Vance. :)

I haven’t done anything, sweet boy.

Oh, yeah? ► Chilling fingers push back curly blonde hair as he smiles behind the mask.

► Eyes wide, they glare holes into the teenager. Gaze full of fury, the man stands up straight and removes his hand from the brat’s face. Don’t you 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 do that again.

It’s charming.

It’s not made for you.

I can see you’re upset. ► He’s trying not to strangle the kid right off the bat. Are you hungry? I can get you something to eat. It’s much easier to feed you now with the lack of company.

: - ?

► He desperately grips at the teen’s wrist. Exhaustion and effort goes into trying to toss the kid off of him. If you keep doing this, I’ll gut you. ► His threat has honesty behind it despite the gasps for air in between words.

Not at all… : - )

Of course not! I just like to smile.

I would never make fun of you. : - )
