Of course Dennis drove over the speed limit as he went back down the highway, the exact way he’d come barely an hour before.

Anna buckled herself in, and it seemed that now the only thing she was scared of was the possibility of getting into an accident with another vehicle.

“Uh, Dennis, maybe you should slow down?”

He couldn’t. He wouldn’t. Not until he knew he would be close enough that an attack from Laurence wouldn’t matter. He slowed only for turns on the highway, and even then he made the tires squeal. At one point it felt suspiciously a lot like he’d brought two of the wheels off the road.

Anna yelped when the truck righted itself, but he still didn’t slow down.

“You know I’m not bleeding to death, right? But getting in an accident with another truck or car could kill me?”

Dennis shook his head. “I’m not risking that Laurence is waiting.”

“Okay, do you think that if he tries jumping in the road to stop us again, that at this speed you can run him down? Or would he make you lose control of the truck?”

He eased his foot off the gas, just a little, at those words.

She was right. Fuck. He couldn’t do this. He couldn’t take the risk.

Laurence wouldn’t be able to stop the truck if he got the suicidal idea in his head to jump into traffic when Dennis was going at this speed, but it wasn’t as though Dennis could smoothly run him over either.

Laurence would probably die, but he’d make sure to kill Dennis before taking Anna.

If she happened to live through this stupidity.

Fuck. God dammit, fuck!

Dennis smashed his hand down onto the steering wheel, putting a dent in it as he forced himself to slow up.

But only a little.

Anna reached for his shoulder. She touched him, but whereas that touch could once soften him, could release the tension and anxiety, he felt nothing but a cluster of anger and impatience.

“We’ll get him back.”

Dennis blinked. He didn’t dare take his mind off the road this time just in case Laurence jumped out at him again, but the sound of her voice…

“You think that’s all I’m worried about?”

“He’s your son. Isn’t it all you’re worried about? I’m not saying that because I’m trying to make it a competition either.”

“I know. I heard it in your voice, but honestly. Do you really think it doesn’t gut me to know I have to give you back? That even if I had Derek with me right now, there would be no way for me to keep you? That I can’t even keep you safe because the pack I was building this whole time was for nothing?”

Anna said nothing right away. “Maybe…maybe it’s not all for nothing. It’s only those three, right? I mean, there were others I was suspicious of when you were holding me hostage in that factory, don’t get me wrong, but not everyone was looking at me like I was a meal.”

Dennis clenched his teeth. He had to force himself not to rip the steering wheel right out of the truck itself.
