Hayze smiled. That was just the sort of reaction he was hoping for, although it didn’t exactly answer his question. Maybe he didn’t want to tell him. Perhaps it was for the best.

He realized his shadow was under his feet again, probably hiding from the man. Whenever it was touching him it could affect his movements and sometimes his thoughts, if it tried hard enough. The alcohol certainly didn’t help him keep control.
“Sorry.” He blurted out, surprising himself again. “Trying to fight off a migraine.” He almost didn’t know what he was saying. The shadow was certainly softening his thoughts. “Where are you from exactly?”
