Alina Pov

My mind raced more than it ever did before. The last time I had this feeling was when I fled from my wedding. I can’t believe it’s only been over a week since then, it felt like forever. But that’s not important right now, what I need to do is figure out a way to escape Harris and hopefully make it back to Mikhail somehow.

I wish I could tell him where he’s taking me or something but my first attempt got my phone thrown out the window. I don’t know how to contact him now.

I shifted slightly in my seat and rubbed my wrist which still throbbed from when he grabbed me earlier.

What if I jumped out the car at the first red light?

No. That wouldn’t work.

Even if I was fast enough and made it out in time, he would have his men dragging me back before I took five steps. And plus what if I hurt myself badly? Then I really wouldn’t be able to escape.

I have to wait. Watch and pretend to be the old Alina, the second I see an opening I’ll take it and escape.

    Mikhail PovThe doors to the shop slammed shut behind me. Trevor was leaning against a car with his arms folded, while John was seated, scrolling through his phone. I walked into my office and came back out with a laptop, which I dropped on John’s lap.“You only call me when you are in trouble Antonov. What is it this time?” John said with an amused tone.“Not trouble. A job.” I stated. “Someone snatched a girl from the carnival. I want every camera, every drone searching for her.”He snapped his fingers. “Ahh… so that’s why the big scary Russian man sounds like he’s about to murder someone. Alright, I’m on it.” Lines of code scrolled across the screen as he hacked into the street cams.John has always been like this… reliable. Hacking into cams, rigging car trackers, the internet is his plaything. He’s the only one I trust apart from Trevor. It’s been years since we last walked paths together. I settled into my business and he vanished into the shadows of cyberspace, but he was alway

    Mikhail PovI was scrolling idly on my phone while waiting for my order. Trevor texted me he was done with the modifications on Sean’s car and asked if he should put it on display with the others. I swiped over the text, not really thinking about anything but her.She looked different tonight, like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. She wasn’t Alina Etienne, she was just… Alina. The corners of my lips lifted slightly when I recalled the events of today, she had fun for what seemed like the first time in her life, and I am glad I was the one who was able to give it to her.And at the Ferris wheel if Leo hadn’t interrupted we would’ve- my eyes widened with realization. No, I know this feeling all too well. It is not one I would like to revisit.“Here you go sir.” The vendor handed me a warm paper bag, knocking me out of my thoughts.“Thanks.” I muttered before accepting the bag and walking back towards where we kept Leo by the Ferris wheel entrance.But… she wasn’t there.I turn

    It was way more than I imagined.The carnival was alive with bright lights, neon signs and a whole bunch of people. From the towering gaze of the Ferris wheel to the carousel horses, it all seemed magical.“Wow!” I marveled.Then something caught my attention. The smell of buttery popcorn and cinnamon pretzels amongst other fried food. It made my stomach growl.We passed a cotton candy stand and I found myself slowing down. “I’ve never tried that.” I mumbled.Mikhail stopped completely and made me bump into him. “Seriously?” he asked.I nodded before looking back at the vendor. “I’ve been on a strict diet for as long as I can remember.”Without a word he walked over to the cotton candy man and bought a blue colored one that was fluffy like a cloud. My eyes sparkled as I took it from him.“You can eat whatever you want now,” I closed my eyes and took a big bite and slowly savored the taste. “What do you think?”My brows scrunched a bit. “It feels weird, but sweet.” I wanted to give so

    The dust has settled, both literally and figuratively.Trevor had driven off with Sean’s car and the crowd began to disperse. I wondered to the far edge of the lot, just staring out to the distance with my arms crossed.I had this strange feeling in my gut that I couldn’t explain, I didn’t have time to figure it out because he came up behind me.“You okay?” I heard his voice behind me.I nodded slowly. “I could ask you the same thing.” He circled around until he was in front of me.“I’m fine.” I took a look at him… his shirt clung to his body, there was a smudge of grease near his jawline, his hair was messy but he still managed to make it look good. He looked wild, yet calm.I hesitated and grabbed the helm of my hoodie. “When I heard the tires screech and you didn’t answer me, I thought- I thought something bad happened.”“Nothing happened, and I have you to thank for that. Your call saved me and my car from a horrible crash.”I shrugged. “I just did what anyone would have done.”He

    My heart skipped a beat and my eyes darted between the two men. I don’t know why but I felt extremely nervous for him. This didn’t feel like a normal race.Mikhail crossed his arms and stared at the man with a bored expression.“And who the hell are you supposed to be?”The man smiled and jerked his thumb towards himself. “I’m the guy who is going to take you off your throne.”I heard someone stifle a laugh from the crowd and one of his posse stepped forward to Mikhail.“Sean is putting his ride on the line. If you win, she’s yours.”“But If I win…” Sean pointed at the car behind me. “I want your beast.”Mikhail stared at him, and without a single word he strolled to his car and popped the hood.Mikhail’s friend also followed to check out the opponent’s car. “That’s a 2JZ-GTE engine! Twin turbo,” he whistled. “A girl like this can push up to 1,000 horses with the right mods.”Mikhail just nodded. “She’s a pretty ride,” he said, closing the hood with a soft thud. “But she’s not worth i
