Chapter Nineteen

He wasn’t sure how she was even driving. When he’d opened that door, Elijah felt as close to losing his sanity than he ever had. He knew he’d never feel that again in his life. It was like an instantaneous and overwhelming rage and fear combined and all right there at the surface at the same time. Even losing his parents and brother hadn’t caused that reaction, not either time the news was dropped. Every square inch of his body pricked with goosebumps at the sight of her on the floor beaten and bruised and naked. He’d never before wanted to kill someone so badly.

He knew what the bastard was doing, too. Principal Russo had his hand down her panties and one on her breast. She was tied, chained to the damn wall. Elijah knew he was only seconds soon enough before that son-of-a-bitch raped her. He didn’t know what happened prior to him finding her, but she looked pretty banged up. That thought made him long to throw up out the window.

“Oh, shit!” she cried out.

Elijah thought maybe she was about to hit a deer or something.

“His phone!” Wren said next.

“What?”

“Yeah, he said he was filming me and taking pictures…”

“When? In school?”

“No, tonight,” she said. “He drugged me with something. Stuck a rag over my nose and mouth, and I think I passed out. When I woke up, I was naked, and he said he filmed me. I think. I don’t know. It’s all a blur.”

“Okay, don’t worry,” he said, trying to calm her and feeling another wave of nausea and gooseflesh pulse through him at the thought of their principal using chloroform or whatever it was he used on her. He hoped the bastard bled out somewhere in a ditch.

“What do you mean? You don’t understand!”

She swerved a cat in the road and sped on. Obviously, the hemi wasn’t something she couldn’t handle or the manual transmission. She was shifting it like a pro.

“It’s okay. We’ll tell the police…”

“No! What the hell, Elijah? What don’t you get about me not being able to involve the police?”

He wondered if it had something to do with what he’d found out the other night at the hospital. It wasn’t the right time to bring it up, though. They had enough problems right now.

She whipped the car into the trailer park so fast that the tires squealed off the pavement before she flew down the gravel road. Then she pulled into her spot under the carport and cut the engine.

A man bounded out of the trailer. He was burly, bulky, stalky. Not as big as Elijah, but he had age and wisdom and experience in his cold, dark eyes.

“Wren!” he exclaimed and grabbed her, wrapping an around the back of her neck and pulling her tightly against him. “Jesus, what happened?”

“My friend, Elijah, he’s hurt, Uncle Jamie. He was stabbed saving me…”

“Saving you? From who?”

“Let’s get him inside.”

“Wren, you know the rules,” he said.

Elijah heard the same slanted ewe-er sound for the single ‘oh’ at the end of his pronunciation of the word ‘know.
