Seven

Marcus let his mind wander as the music mingled with the sounds of the highway. The song on the radio held a steady beat and he thumped his finger to it against the steering wheel. It was a familiar tune. Although he didn’t know, he felt certain he had a specific memory—a good memory—associated with the song. He glanced over at Bethany sleeping in the passenger’s seat and wondered if she was a part of that memory.

There was something between them. He knew it. He felt it deep inside him. Even since the first time he’d seen her in the diner, he’d felt a stirring in his gut that this woman was something special to him. Just as certain as he knew he liked this song and this band, he knew Bethany Bryant was more to him than she seemed.

You might not like the answer, a voice deep inside warned him.

He didn’t care. He only wanted to know the truth, to understand why his heart kicked up a notch when she touched him and why he seemed so powerfully drawn to her. He was a moth and she was the flame and, just like that moth, he couldn’t stay away. A car roared up behind him, fast approaching and bearing down on him with its bright lights on. Marcus flipped the mirror so the light wouldn’t be so blinding and slowed down, hoping the car would go around him. Tonight, he was willing to give the approaching vehicle a wide berth to pass.

But the car didn’t go around him. Instead it roared up behind him and tapped him bumper to bumper.

Bethany awakened, startled by the sudden impact. “What’s happening?” She glanced at the vehicle behind them. “Is that him?”

“I thought it was just a motorist. Now, I’m not so sure.”

The car rammed them again and pushed the back wheels onto the shoulder. Marcus gripped the steering wheel, trying to level off, but the truck spun. He jerked the wheel and they were back on the street. Adrenaline pumping through him, he pushed the accelerator to the max and lengthened the distance between them.

Bethany took out her gun and checked it.

He reached to stop her hand as an image of some crazy, drag racing kid floated through his mind. “What if it’s not him?”

She seemed to understand his concern and nodded. “I’ll just fire a couple of warning shots.”

She pulled down the window, leaned out and fired two shots. The truck swerved then came back faster and rammed them again.

She slid back inside. “It’s our guy.”

“Hang on.”

He started maneuvering but the truck matched him move for move. They had to get away from this guy. He was too close to meeting up with Colton Blackwell and possibly learning something about his past.

Bethany was beside him, hanging on, gun still in her hand. He knew she was waiting for a smooth moment to lean out and start firing again, but he was focused on leaving this guy behind them and he knew he had the skills to lose him.
