You\u2019re old. Show some restraint. Stop shoving a ball at me every five minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Puddy lifted his proud head and deliberately looked away.<\/p>\n<p>I couldn\u2019t help it\u2013I laughed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot gonna lie, he\u2019s a lot like you. Same brand of pride.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Servants appeared with a fruit tray and coffee, arranging everything on the table.<\/p>\n<p>I popped a grape. \u201cSo, you hauled me here just to give Puddy a checkup?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Luis took a slow sip, unhurried as ever. \u201cMy curse is gone.

How do I not know about this?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Three questions, one octave higher than usual.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re talking about the Blood Moon Curse\u2013the thing that hounded the Mooncrown Alpha line for three generations and killed his father and grandfather.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTwo days ago,\u201d Luis said, like he was giving a weather report. \u201cI lost control once in Euron during the ambush.
