But Ikenna did not reply.

He kept his focus on the road ahead, his jaw tight and his hands steady on the steering wheel.

She continued pleading, “I said slow down!” but he ignored her, his eyes darting to the side mirror every few seconds.

His silence and determination unsettled her even more, but she could tell he wasn’t about to stop.

Through the mirror, Ikenna saw that the black car was still following them, though his sudden acceleration had startled the driver, creating a significant gap between them.

Still, it wasn’t enough.

Whoever was tailing them was persistent.

His mind raced.

Were they after him, or were they after the fifth princess?

Either way, he wasn’t going to let them succeed.

Ikenna drove farther and farther from the heart of the city, taking every possible route to confuse their pursuers.

Eventually, the distance between them grew to the point where the black car became a speck in the rearview mirror.

For a brief moment, he thought he had shaken them off.

Then, just as they approached the outskirts of the city, a large van sped out of nowhere, screeching to a halt in front of them.

The van blocked the entire road, forcing Ikenna to slam on the brakes.

The car skidded to a stop, the tires screeching loudly.

Nnenna screamed, her hands flying up to shield herself.

Cursing under his breath, Ikenna shifted gears, reversing quickly in an attempt to retreat.

But before he could get far, the black car they had been escaping from appeared behind them, swerving into place to block their escape.

They were trapped.

Ikenna’s eyes darted between the two vehicles hemming them in.
