Chapter 131
Peter
What the fuck.
I swerve hard, tires screaming as gunfire cracks behind us. Bullets hit the asphalt, sparking against the road like angry stars.
I grip the wheel, knuckles white. "Hold on!" I bark over my shoulder.
This is the most action I've had more career, since ...well ever. All I've had to do is shadow a bastard prince, it was boring but it was safe work unlike the others appointed to the king or crown prince.
Key words. Was. Safe.
I slam on the accelerator, pushing the engine far past what this vehicle was blessed to handle.
In the backseat, the omega is curled around the child like a shield, trembling but silent. I can hear the sound of a baby's cries but they are muffled into his chest, I did tell them to keep quiet and bend down.
The other man, the beta, has his arms around the both of them like some impenetrable wall.
A sharp turn. Another bullet.
I grit my teeth and take the bend anyway, tires fishtailing.
