The Girl He Craves

Sophie’s pov

“Are you alright?” Mitch asked in worry, his eyes peering at me through the rearview mirror.

I know I looked like I had seen a ghost and was probably as white as a sheet.

I was still trembling too and clutched my clothes to stop my fingers from shaking.

“In fine. Just feel a little unwell. Can you bring me back to the station?” I move my eyes off his, resting my head on the window as I looked outside.

My thoughts hold me prisoner in my mind and I’m lost wandering in the dark of my mind.

I have no clue what to do.

On how to get myself out of this messy situation.

Mitch doesn’t say another word and drives away. My mind fumbles.

Should I tell Aiden?

He’ll be furious with me for putting myself in that situation in the first place. He’d probably not forgive me too.

And what of Christopher’s threat?

What will happen if I tell Aiden or the police? What does he have on Aiden to put him back in jail for a long time?

Tears trickle down my cheeks as I watch the scenery as we pass by.

“There are reporters up ahead.”

I tilted my head and looked out through the windshield. He was right, reporters were lining the front of the police station.

A few police officers were trying to push them away.

I winced.

Doing this on my own without Aiden nearly had the air in my lungs get stuck.

I felt fear crawling up my spine.

“Can you find another entryway?” I asked Mitch nervously. I didn’t think I would know what to tell the reporters. Aiden would always be the one to respond, and sometimes he didn’t.

If I were to not respond, there was a possibility that they would paint me in an even worse light.
