How had someone who had just joined the pack a year ago become their friend? How had Holland walked into Novaterra with nothing, with no connections, no name, no status, and immediately been accepted into that tight circle that Roma had been trying to break into for years?
Roma tried everything. He smiled. He offered help. He showed up at events he wasn't invited to. He did everything he knew how to do.
And it was like they were looking down on him. Especially Jamie. Jamie Silverwynd, who had been born with everything, who had never had to work for anything in his life, who made everyone feel less than they were just because of his name. Jamie, who looked at Roma like he was something stuck to the bottom of his shoe.
Holland was even worse.
