Chapter 15 - Damien

I glance in the rearview mirror, and my heart skips a beat. The three cars tailing us are far too close for comfort. They have their headlights on full beam, blinding me. I begin to panic, not knowing who it is and what they might want.

My only concern is keeping Genevieve safe. I need to know who we are dealing with in order to decide what must be done next.

I take a swerve onto a wider path, allowing two cars to come to either side of us. I look to my right and focus intently. Then, I recognize the man sitting by the driver’s side. I could never forget him, with his flaming red curly hair. It’s one of Alexai’s lackeys.

Alexai. God damn it. I ignored a few of his calls today, but I would have called him back tomorrow. It’s been less than twenty-four hours since we cracked a deal at the boxing ring. The match never ended and the deal never reached fruition, what with the cops turning up.

“Damien, what’s going on?” Genevieve asks, her voice trembling with fear.

I suddenly feel furious. He’s shown no patience, and he’s sent his men to scare not just me but my wife. That won’t do.

“Genevieve, listen to me,” I say, gripping the wheel tightly. “We’re being followed by some dangerous people. I need you to trust me right now.”

“Okay,” she whispers, her eyes wide with terror.

With that, I slam my foot on the gas pedal, accelerating as fast as the car can handle. The engine roars as we tear down the street, weaving through traffic like a snake. I can feel Genevieve’s grip on my arm, her nails digging into my skin.

“Damien, please drive slower,” she begs, her voice barely audible over the sound of screeching tires and honking cars.

“I can’t with those men after us,” I explain hurriedly, my focus split between the road and the cars behind us. The ones by our sides have trailed behind, too. “Just trust me.”

As I make a sharp turn onto a side street, I notice that the cars are still hot on our tail. I push the car even harder, my tires skidding across the pavement. They follow.

I need to get rid of them because I know what they want. I know this world like the back of my hand. If we stop, they’ll take us off the streets and bring us straight to Alexai. Had I been alone, I would have gone and negotiated what I could. But the experience of being kidnapped isn’t one I wish to put Genevieve through. She’s to be protected from that traumatic outcome, no matter what.

I wonder if I should use gunfire to blow out some of their tires. But with Genevieve by my side, I can’t risk it because it might aggravate them enough to fire back. She could get hurt.

So, the only option I have is to lose them.

The chase continues, each turn and acceleration more heart-stopping than the last. I can sense Genevieve’s fear mounting, her body tense beside me.
