Be careful, if you don't pick a side you may get caught in the cross-fire...

rayden didn't have to work at the winery until later that evening. There was a wine tasting for a wedding coming up that Summer and they had asked for him to work it. He wanted to sleep in after a night of grabbing drinks with some friends, but that didn't happen.
It was bright and early on a Sunday morning and he found himself walking down main street - stopping at the bakery for a coffee and Danish before continuing his morning walk. He was pleasantly surprised that there were other people walking around with him, thinking most people would still be in bed. The man stopped in front of Seven Sirens - wanting to glance in the window to see what they had for sale. His mother had started getting into knitting again and her birthday was just around the corner.
Almost as if he was lost in his own thoughts, he didn't hear someone approach him and tap him on the shoulder.

mother • Rhianne Price, retired photographer, 68
siblings • Kylie - younger sister.
important people • his best friend, Micha
hometown • Detroit, MI, USA (birthplace) & Hickstead, UK.
overall history • Brayden had a somewhat tragic start to his life. His father died when he was ten years old - his father's coworker drove them both to work and the car was hit by a drunk driver, resulting in the death of both driver and passenger. The Price family was devastated, grieving the loss in different ways. Brayden didn't take long to bounce back, using his newfound love for horses and to help him get through it. He immersed himself in riding, spending every minute at the barn after school and when he was done with his homework. He competed in both English and Western events.
The Price family had the opportunity to move to Hickstead when Brayden was 16. His mother had received a job offer to work with the local newspaper in Hickstead as they needed a photographer. The change of scenery really only bothered his sister. Brayden was happy when he heard they were moving to a horse country. This was when school began bothering him - the schooling system was different and he wasn't as good at making friends as he was back home. It was in Art class however, where he found his calling. His classmates and teachers were impressed by his skills, getting the teen back to his happy go lucky self - and improving his grades enough to graduate. After graduation, he got accepted into Hickstead University - majoring in Art.
When he was old enough, he began serving at the local winery - switching to being a sales representative a few years after. The Police station reached out to him after graduating University and he still works there as their sketch artist. He also boards his thoroughbred gelding, Bacardi at Helping Hooves Stables.
