CHAPTER 10

We didn’t even stop for pizza before heading out—we were too upset to eat. Zack drove us out of the City. Once the worst of the urban mental intensity had faded, I expanded my shield around Trevor as we curled together in the backseat.

You okay? His thoughts jangled with the remembered crush of thousands of minds.

Mustard-tinted guilt scratched at my soul with dirty fingernails—my fault. I’d hurt Trevor today when I’d lowered my shield. I’d hurt Ann. I shook my head and groaned.

She got away.

She’d killed people in the street and she’d gotten away. We could’ve followed her down the corridor to D.C., but we were too shaken up and discouraged.

We let her go.

At least the people on the train would live—having them jump would stop the train and delay her getaway so I was pretty sure she wouldn’t do it if she didn’t have to.

I bet the lives of innocent people. A shudder passed through me with the realization.

I knew Belinda liked the power she got from her ability, and I knew she didn’t mind using people—even destroying them—to get what she wanted. Why hadn’t Williamson seen this side of her before she’d turned against Ganzfield? Had he simply assumed that because she needed dodecamine from us she could be trusted? I’d hated her from the start, but being proven right still left me feeling empty.

We turned off the highway in Connecticut and drove along the Long Island Sound until we located a suitably isolated beach house. Trevor reached through, unlocked the door, and we all cleaned up before he and I took camping gear down to the beach, leaving the house for Zack and Ann.

I burrowed into my sleeping bag and braced for the nightmares I knew were coming.
