Chapter 803

• By the time she reached the driver’s door, her heart was racing. She leaned down and looked under the vehicle to see Zain was by the passenger’s door. Blowing out a breath, she gripped her backpack tight in one hand and turned the fob in her other. They would only have seconds to get in and get moving.
• Pushing the unlock button, she grabbed the handle and opened the door. When she slid into the driver’s seat, she saw Zain doing the same on the other side. Jamming the key in the ignition, she turned it as she slammed the door, and shoved it into drive. Hitting the gas, she looked in the mirror and backed down the driveway. She slipped it into drive when she cranked the wheel and slid sideways out onto the street.
• Zain pulled her backpack off her lap and pushed it between the seats into the back. He was sitting on the edge of the seat, the gun held up and watching in every direction. “Just drive. We’ll look at a map when we know no one is following us.”
