“Don’t worry, you two,” Kelly said as she turned around in her seat to look at us. There was a sick, twisted grin on her gaunt face. She looked even more skeletal than before, as though she hadn’t eaten or slept in days, maybe even weeks. “I’m going to take you far, far away. And I’ll make sure that Edrick never finds you.”

“K-Kelly?” I whimpered. I tried the car door again, but it was still locked. And it was too late now; the light turned green and Kelly hit the gas, speeding down the mostly empty street.

“Didn’t expect to see me, huh?” she said, laughing almost maniacally as she gripped the steering wheel tightly. Even in the dim light of the car, I could see that her knuckles were as white as a sheet.

Ella, who had caught onto the danger by now, was beginning to panic. I felt her little arms slip around my waist, and when I looked down, she was looking up at me with terror in her eyes. I pulled her close, holding her tightly, and took her head and buried it in my side so she wouldn’t have to see in case Kelly did anything insane.

“Kelly, what is all of this?” I asked, my heart practically pounding out of my chest. “Do you know Olivia? Why are you here?”

like a child. “Oh, her?” she asked. She took a sharp turn, causing Ella and I to slide across the seat. I quickly buckled Ella into a seatbelt as I mentally prepared for Kelly to do something rash like intentionally crash the car. “Yeah, of course I know my good friend Olivia,” she continued. “If it wasn’t thanks to her, I wouldn’t be here right

said, speeding through a yellow light, “you’ve done nothing except get in the way of my relationship with Edrick. Both of you, really. First that little snot-nosed brat,” she gestured over her shoulder at Ella with her thumb, “and then you, with your stupid pregnancy.” Her eyes met mine in the rear view mirror then. They looked hollow and pale, like ghosts of what they once were. Kelly was always a bit unhinged, but now she seemed far worse. It had only been a few weeks since the incident in the Rogue district, and already she seemed like an almost entirely

I actually learned a little lesson from you, believe it or not, and that’s that I can lock him down by getting pregnant. I don’t even care if it’s his baby, honestly. If I need to get pregnant before I ever even sleep with him, then so be it. It doesn’t matter whose baby it is, so long as he thinks that it’s his. Then, he’ll never
