Chapter 7
Lyrian’s heart pounded as she tried to glance back over the back of her seat at Anarian, but the carseat faced backwards, and she couldn’t see the baby. She wasn’t crying, so she was probably still asleep.
She wasn’t sure how, the car careened all over the place as Brad swung around corners.
The siren was loud in her ears, and the red and blue flashing lights were right over her shoulder, illuminating the back seat with their colour. It hadn’t taken the police long to find them, and they certainly didn’t seem to be slowing down.
Lyrian’s heart hammered in her chest. How were they going to get away?
Brad was swearing, and it was clear he had no idea. “I shouldn’t have run. Maybe we could have talked to them…” His voice trailed off, and he glanced over at Lyrian.
She knew what he was thinking. “It wasn’t worth the risk,” she told him. “If they figured out I’m not human…” She gave a shudder, not even wanting to think about that.
She had no idea what would happen if the humans did figure it out, but since Rian clan had fled England to escape the humans there, she didn’t imagine it would be any better with these humans.
Brad’s frown tightened, and he swung around yet another corner.
The police car followed without pause.
There was no way they were going to be able to get away from the other car. It was faster than they were. And knew the area better.
They needed to do something else.
Lyrian knew what she had to do, but still she hesitated.
It had been different when she’d been trying to stop the Trima dragon. She hadn’t been giving away anything the other dragon didn’t know. But once she threw magic at a human, well, it would be hard to turn back.
But it would be even harder to turn back if the police pulled them over. Then she would need to use far more obvious magic.
She needed to do it now. Before they were caught. While there was still time.
She twisted around in her seat, but she couldn’t turn far enough because of the human seatbelt, so she reached down and undid it.
“What are you doing? You need to leave that on.” Brad’s voice held a note of panic.
Lyrian ignored him. Now she could see the police car clearly.
It was close. Too close.
She took a deep breath, and summoned up the wind, directing it closely, buffeting the police car.
They were close enough that she could see the expression of panic on the faces of the two occupants of the car.
The man driving looked wild, his eyes wide and he weaved across the road.
The woman next to him worried Lyrian more. She didn’t look surprised. Her eyes were narrow, and her face suspicious.
Lyrian hit them with another gust, stronger this time. Her experience with the Trima dragon following them at least meant she had an idea of the amount of force needed.
The car swerved wildly, into the other lane.
Brad had stopped objecting now.
