“You ever run from something?”
“That obvious?”

The fence line stretches long under the Kansas sun—and so does the silence between Colt Carter and Mason Brooks. In Chapter 2, the work is simple: pounding posts, tightening wire, sharing sweat and space. But what simmers beneath it is anything but.

Colt doesn’t know what to make of the new hand. Mason doesn’t say much, but he looks too long. Stays too close. And for the first time in a long while, Colt starts to wonder what it would mean to be seen—really seen—in a place where boys like them are supposed to stay quiet.

Chapter 2 is now live on Patreon.

It’s slow. It’s sun-warmed. It’s starting to burn.
