CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

~

Coleen looked in the rearview mirror and couldn’t believe that Flint was still chasing the truck like a man on a mission. His arms were pumping as his fists punched the air in front of him, and those thick muscled legs with their wide stride were eating up the dirt road.

“What, do I smell like bloody kibble or something?” Coleen muttered, alternating looking between the road and the rearview mirror to see what her mate was doing.

As the road grew bumpier, she was hesitant to slow down to keep from bouncing in the seat, but when it got to the point where she almost hit the roof, she did drop her speed just a little.

Even with the headlights on full beam, she couldn’t see that far ahead to get a sense of what was coming up or pick out the really big potholes to try to avoid them. There was just darkness ahead, blackness, like she’d reached the end of the world and things, had just ceased to exist in the void.

At least in her part of town, there were lights. Who liked living in complete darkness? Shifters with perfect night vision – another thing to add to the list of things that annoyed her.

She wondered if there was a spell she could use to see in the dark apart from lighting flames everywhere as she went. That didn’t feel like a good option in the countryside.

A moment later she almost jumped out of her seat when there was a hard and heavy thud in the back of the truck, and she squealed as she turned a look over her shoulder only to discover that Flint was there on the flatbed at the very back of the truck.

“And that’s what happens when you slow the hell down,” she grumbled, turning back to the road just in time to notice the car coming at her with no lights. “Holy freck!” she shouted and yanked the steering wheel a hard right as she stomped on the brakes.

Flint made the weirdest sound as he travelled through the air, over the top of the cab, and she spotted him doing his Superman impression through the glass and tracked his flight until he landed with a hard thud on the ground.

Coleen winced. “Impressive, but … not my fault,” she said, unfastening her seatbelt and popping the door open.

“Nice shot,” Betty said, hooking her arm out the window and inspecting the beta on the ground. “I’ll give you an A for effort, but a C for the landing,” she added, and cackled to herself.

“Not my fault!” Coleen bit out, annoyed with the road, the darkness, the elder, and the beta, and all on the back of a sense of guilt.

“I think I broke something,” Flint growled.

“Well, give it a minute,” Betty said. “It’ll come good.”

Coleen knew the shifter would heal because that’s what they did, but she rallied against the elder anyway. “You have headlights for a reason, use them.”

“Why would I need to waste perfectly good lights when I can see better than you?” Betty grumbled.
