Chapter Nine

Shay

The door wouldn’t slam. It closed slowly behind her, air hissing from the contraption preventing her from expressing herself.

The instant the bolt clicked into place she threw the lock across, spinning to face away from it, her back pressing against the cold metal door. As secure as she could be, the tears began to flow. Great heaving sobs racked her shoulders as she slid to the ground, pulling her knees to her chest and hunching over them.

Justin had murdered those two men! Right in front of her!

She barely made it to the washroom before her stomach emptied its contents as she remembered the way he had transformed into that huge animal and ripped the two of them apart. Blood had been dripping from his jaw. Human blood.

Her stomach heaved some more until it came up empty.

What the hell had she gotten herself into? Falling for a man who murdered government or police agents?

Is that truly what happened? You don’t know who those men were.

Shay growled at her inner voice. She knew what she had seen. They wore uniforms. Official uniforms. That meant government. Besides, why would anyone else be trying to go after Justin? No, only the government would do that, and that meant he had done something very bad.

Had he killed before?

The abyss yawned in front of her, opening up to swallow all the hope she had been building. About finding her father. Hope that she might be able to race again one day. That maybe she had something with this mysterious shifter. That she might have found a place in life that she could stay for more than a few days at a time.

It had been a long time since Shay had considered the feasibility of settling down, of living in a city for an extended period of time. Her skills didn’t transfer to that sort of life, but to her surprise, since meeting Justin she had begun to realize she would do it anyway, for him.

Now I’ve gone and opened my heart, only to have it wrecked worse than the time I plowed headfirst into the concrete barrier in Jarkova City. You’d think I would have learned what to avoid by now.

Shay got up off the ground, her disgust morphing toward anger. Anger that was directed at herself for not knowing any better. Glancing up from the sink, she caught a look at herself.

Bright eyes overshadowed by puffy redness from crying, runny makeup, and a distant look on her face summed up the day so far. She thanked her lucky stars that she hadn’t popped a blood vessel in her eye while her stomach flipped itself upside down. That would have just been the capper on a fantastic twenty-four hours.

First she’d been threatened with a gun for some unknown reason. Now the man she thought was cute turned out to be a murderer.

Do murderers run from their victims first? Do they plead for them not to make them do this?

Shay shook her head, not interested in the philosophical questions that kept popping into her head.
