Chapter 13

Dean saw the squad cars slow down in the rearview mirror and block the stray reporters that found them. He floored Hawk, who fired like a rocket down the road, leaving everyone in their dust. After a few minutes he exited off the expressway and started down the back roads to get back to his boat.

“Did you say something to my father?” Anne’s voice broke the eerie silence since they left the hospital.

Dean looked in the rearview mirror as he turned another corner. There was one car and one cargo van that started following them after they got off the expressway.

“I told him to forgive you.”

She looked over to him. “Thank you.” She looked ahead at the road again. It was pitch black but the light of the moon lit the road in an eerie glow. “Before we left the hospital he hugged me and told me he loved me.” Her head against the window. Her fingers gently moved a loose strand of hair from her face. “Then he told me all he wanted was for me to be safe and happy. It was probably the longest conversation I have had with him since I left.”

Dean’s eyes darted back to the rearview mirror as he took another turn. Both vehicles followed them and kept a short distance between them. There was no doubt they were tailing them.

“Damn it.”

“What’s wrong?” Anne looked back and saw the vehicles behind them. “I can get rid of them.”

Dean reached over and grabbed her hand. “Don’t you even try.”

“They won’t know I did it.” she reassured him.

“It would be too much of a coincidence if two cars broke down at once. Leave them. I’m sure Hawk can lose them - right, buddy?”

The engine revved in acknowledgment and sped up.

“You are a bad influence on him!” Anne yelled at him as she yanked her hand away and turned back to their uninvited tails.

They increased their speed to match theirs.

“Shit. Hawk, we have to lose them.” Dean told him.

The engine revved again.

“Let go of the wheel!” Anne screamed at him.

Fear caught in his throat as he let it go. Immediately, Hawk turned right down a dirt road, spewing dirt and rocks as he fishtailed and then straightened to continue down the road. The first car blew past the road but the van caught on and was able to make the turn.

Dean swore. “Do you know any other way of getting rid of them, Hawk?”

The engine revved three times, almost sounding like a chuckle.

A few more feet and he turned left onto another dirt road.

“He knows what he’s doing.” Anne told him as she looked back. “Those guys are still following us. It would just be so easy for me…”

There was no way Dean was going to take that chance. His hand reached over and pulled her face towards him. He was protecting her, he told himself as his lips crushed into hers and he tasted her sweet nectar. This was only a distraction for her. She deepened the kiss and his groin tightened in anticipation.
