Chapter Nineteen

We were only a couple miles away from Seth’s house when everything went to shit. I had been having such a nice day too. Having Seth come with me was the right choice, he made the visit more exciting, and kept that energy up while we headed back to his house. But wasn’t that the issue? All good things had to come to an end, right?

We were on a long strip of road, surrounded by farmland, and I got Seth telling me about the perfect house he wanted to eventually build. It was a beautiful insight into Seth and how he thought about everyone considering this perfect house was not just for him, but also for Toby, Paxon, Justin, Bryan, and even Calvin.

“What the hell?” Seth mumbled, glancing in his rearview mirror.

“What?” I asked, twisting to see what caught his attention.

“This guy is on my ass,” he said.

A huge truck with tinted windows was trailing close enough behind us that I couldn’t even see their headlights.

“Maybe slow down so they can pass?” I said, trying to see through the windshield, but it was too dark and all I could make out were two shadows. Two people.

“I did slow down, but they aren’t passing. There’s no oncoming traffic. Never is on these roads.” Seth kept mumbling to himself as he kept glancing up into his rearview mirror. Worry deepened his expression and only spurred my own on.

What the heck was going on?

“Face forward,” Seth said. “Before you get hurt.”

“Okay.” Just as I was about to settle in my seat, I froze as two motorcycles pulled out from behind the truck, surging forward. The style of the motorcycles and the familiar pattern of the leather jackets, it all clicked into place. “Shit.”

“What?” Seth tried to spot what had me scared. He finally saw what I saw in the other lane, making their way past the truck and up against ours.

“Seth, please drive faster,” I choked out.

“What the hell is going on?”

“Drive faster!” I snapped, my heart thundering hard against my chest as fear spiked my adrenaline.

He pressed on the gas, but there was no way we were going to outrun them. I bit my lip as they shot forward, one keeping speed next to us, while the other one cut in front of us, forcing Seth to slow down if he didn’t want to hit them.

“Why the fuck are we boxed in?” His grip on the steering wheel tightened as his focus darted between the two motorcycles and the truck behind us. “Are they fucking with us?”

It felt like two hot pokers were digging into my ribs as the fear gripped at me. “That’s the Ryder gang.”

“What?” Seth’s voice rose as his eyes bugged out. He paled.

“Ryder gang. They’re more present in Faydelle.”

“I know who they fucking are. I’m from Faydelle, remember? What the hell are they doing here?”

I couldn’t answer him as the panic rose inside me. All I could think about was how they found me. They somehow figured out I was the one to help Janice get away from their leader, and now they were going to punish me.
