Noah
I brought Anna's face to meet mine, wiping away her tears and that seemed to make her cry more, I felt so guilty at the pain I was causing someone so pure and oblivious to all of these.
Anna didn't deserve this kind of life that I was giving her. It seemed like any girl I came across, I always ended up destroying her life and causing her pain. I felt like a course, and anyone who came in contact with me got hurt.
"Just do as I say. Anything Ryder says, don't answer him. If he tries to touch you, let him. Because screaming and shouting would anger him, and he might hit you. He's a sick bastard. Then when you see the bridge, what did I say you should do there?" I asked, I needed to be sure Anna understood all what I was telling her and it was registered at the back of her mind.<
Anna.I couldn't think straight. No! I couldn't think at all. I was in shock from all of these, from the moment I stepped out of Noah's house and followed him here. I haven't had a break from the emotions swirling through me.From shock to utter humiliation and now fear from having to race with Ryder.Something had changed in him I noticed, and while I knew there was this dangerous aura surrounding him. It was even more thickening and choking as I sat beside him, not even looking at his face.I didn't know what to say, while at first I had been scared of Ryder, I had grown a little accustomed to
**This chapter is dedicated to everyone who has reached this milestone with me. You are deeply appreciated♥️Anna.I gasped loudly as Ryder brought out a gun and I almost lost the wheel as my whole body trembled with fear. I hadn't seen a gun so close to me before and the only time I had seen one was when I ran into Drew at the alleyway.With shaky hands I tried as much I could to keep the car moving straight, tilting it gently sideways as I had seen Ryder do. But it kept going out of the lane especially when a car drove past usAnother bullet went through the car and I screamed in fright losin
Anna.I woke up to someone shaking me. I groaned in pain as I opened my eyes. My head was aching and hurting badly and I tried to move backwards resting my head on the headrest.The first thing I noticed was the blood on the headboard, my blood. It wasn't a lot, but it still made me sick to my stomach. I shut my eyes to the terrible pain now creeping to my neck and back"Are you ok?" Ryder asked, and despite the fear in his eyes, I could see concern swirling in them.He seemed to have been shocked out of his fear state when the car had hit us. His hands shook rapidly against the steering as he tried to get a hold of his car that was moving closer to the edge of the bridge.
Noah.This was the most dangerous race I had ever been in. Usually the semi finals and finals we're dangerous but this was worse. It felt like the guys here were prepared for it.But today I didn't allow myself to be conquered. I had already eliminated five racers and I still had about ten more excluding Ryder.Ryder by now shouldn't have gotten to the bridge, it takes about ten minutes from here. I just had five more minutes before I could reach him. But I failed to do so. I had to eliminate more people to give Ryder a head start so Anna could jump out.I didn't want to admit it, but I was scared out
Anna.I was tired, my bones were tired, my legs were tired, my eyes were tired, every part of me felt it was going to shut down any time soon. But I had to keep going. I was almost at Noah's house, I could see the building now, and I walked faster to get there.It's been an awkward journey from the shore down here because I was only on Noah's jacket with a bleeding forehead and I was dripping wet.But that was the least of my worries as i needed to get Casey out of here before Drew did. No doubt he was already on his way here to confirm who Casey was to Noah.And if he got his hands on her,
Noah.My life flashed before my eyes as I neared the edge of the bridge, crading my arm to my chest as it bled profusely unto my lap.Fragments of memories with Casey flashed before my eyes, her soft smile, teary green eyes and black wavy hair that fell across her face.I wanted to see her one more time before I fell, before I died. Because there was no way I would survive this crash. Even if I did, I would drown in the river below cause I couldn't swim.Anna's beautiful face flashed in my mind, and her terwy face haunted me. The only thing I ever did right was make people sad. And now I w
Anna.A shiver ran down my spine and I forced myself not to cry. Standing here in front of Drew and his men after all my hardwork, falling out of a car, jumping off the bridge, swimming to shore and getting here. Was all a waste.In the end Drew had caught up to us and there was nothing I could do but shiver in fear and shock.I felt Casey hand wrap around me, I could feel the fear radiating off her too and I held until her closer."Anna where's dad?" She asked softly, peeping at Drew and his men.I took a step back when Drew smiled wickedly, taking another threatening step towards me."He's on his way" I choke
Noah.The moment I opened my eyes, I knew something was wrong, surely not the pain raging at the back of my skull nor the bleeding from my shoulder but something somewhere was wrong.And I had a feeling it had to do with Casey, call it a father's instincts but it disturbed me. Does it mean something had happened to Casey or Anna?No! I couldn't think like that, I tried to sit up and noticed I was lying on a bed in Theo's office. I groaned in pain when he walked in."Noah?! What the hell? Are you ok? I saw you lying on the floor when I came in" Theo ran in to my side, holding a wet ckoth that he used to wipe my face. I flinched from the coldness of it and touch the back of my head to feel blood dried on my head. I vividly remembe
