Aria's POV
"Hold on!" Kai shouted as our truck flew around another sharp curve.
I grabbed the door handle so tight my knuckles hurt. Behind us, the black car was getting closer. Much closer.
"They're gaining on us," I said, my voice shaking.
Kai pressed the gas pedal all the way to the floor. Our truck roared louder, but the mountain road was too twisty for real speed. Every turn made my stomach flip, and not just from the baby.
"The cabin's still twenty miles away," Kai said through gritted teeth. "We're not going to make it."
The car behind us suddenly lurched forward. It was trying to ram into our bumper.
"Kai!"
He jerked the wheel to the right just in time. Our truck skidded toward the guardrail, but Kai pulled us back onto the road. My heart was beating so fast I thought it might explode.
"They're trying to kill us!" I gasped.
"No," Kai said grimly. "They're trying to stop us. Isabella wants you alive, remember? But she doesn't care if we get hurt in the process."
