Chapter 34

Climbing into the driver’s seat, 1 started the engine, the low hum of the car filling the silence. My hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, the beast inside me simmering just beneath the surface. I was looking forward to this. I was going to enjoy watching him suffer.

Just like how anyone who dared cross me suffered.

1 pulled out of the parking garage, driving through the city streets. The speedometer climbed as I pressed down on the accelerator, the engine growling beneath me.

I tried the brakes again. Nothing. The car sped forward, the scenery a blur around me as the city lights grew further away.

“Come on!” I growled, slamming my foot down one last time. Nothing but dead air.

This wasn’t an accident. It couldn’t be.

Someone had done this.
