It’s still a week until classes start, but having Sebastian live off-campus it’s honestly for the best. Now, we can get back and get ourselves situated before the semester begins. “You good?” Sebastian asks, not taking his eyes off the road. I look up, startled. “Just telling my mom we’re okay a
Evelyn I wake to a bright light in my eyes, causing me to wince as I try to turn over and away from the sun. But I knock myself into Sebastian’s body, momentarily scaring me. I open my eyes, looking around the room trying to remember what year it is and how I got here. The last twenty-four hou
Sebastian's POV I wish school would never start up again. Maybe I should just drop out of school. Gregory already treats me like a creatin in the house I grew up in. Honestly, I don’t get why he even adopted me. I’m reminded of our argument the day I left. The vile but true words I’d spewed all
“Ten-four.” Evelyn runs over while the men get to work, staying out of the way. “Having fun?” I can’t wink or make many other movements with this helmet on, but she nods enthusiastically. “You’re doing great, baby.” “Five seconds!” I nod to Bobby and then, look back at my girlfriend. “I’ll
Sebastian 's POV The location I’m sent is in the middle of nowhere. I’ve never even heard of the area. “Who’d have thought of coming all the way out here?” I wonder to myself. My truck grumbles on the dirt road once I’ve turned, lights from the street fading in the rearview window. Now most of t
“I love you, and I’m just trying to keep you safe!” “I don’t know how acting like this is a F1 race with no consequences is going to keep me safe!” I shake my head as another text comes in. “Ten to go.” “Shit!” I push down even harder on gas pedal. Evelyn may be strapped in with all the chai
Evelyn's POV I still don’t know what happened. One minute I was walking to the bathroom after Sebastian’s race. The next I’m being slammed up against the right wall of a foreign car with Sebastian going a million miles a minute. “Someone took you just to get to me,” he’d said once we returned
“Pick me up in ten minutes?” “On my way.” Quickly, I start gathering my things and prepping a quick overnight bag. I don’t know how long I’ll be there, but I know one thing for sure: it’s hard to feel safe anymore. I leave a note on Olivia’s bed telling her I’ve gone out before I exit. Sebas
I look at Sebastian, worried that Ava might have to do that. We have him on tampering the breaks and paying off Seb’s team, but what happens if William has a gun or something, and refuses to let Ava go? “That depends. Do you forgive me for being foolish?” Ava’s voice has turned sultry, which is us
Evelyn's POV I’m more nervous than I should be. Ava’s putting her life in danger by talking to William. Not only that, but Sebastian’s laser focused on making sure things go well. I’m just sitting here trying not to tremble. William finally gets to Ava, and he looks horrible. His normal neat a
Sebastian's POV Jack Abbott studies everything I’ve given him. He sits across from Evelyn, Ava and I in our apartment, looking through each page carefully. It took a lot of outlining, but ultimately, Evelyn’s plan is perfect for this. As long as Jack’s on board with his findings, and things go r
Sebastian gives us a double take as he opens the door with his key. “When did you tell Ava?” “She tells me a lot more than you know, Sebastian.” She crosses her arms, looking between the two of us. “I’m the only person who knows the truth about you both. So, sometimes I take advantage of it.”
Evelyn's POV “Are you sure it’s not something I did? I just feel like I’m missing something.” Olivia crosses her arms, as I grab the last of my stuff. It only took me an hour to get everything out of here, and Sebastian’s waiting downstairs for me to finish up. Olivia still knows nothing. Not th
“I love Evelyn, alright? I know you don’t like it or approve, but this isn’t just some stupid game. We know what we’re risking. I’m sorry if you don’t like that.” “I don’t,” she admits, leaning against the back of the chair. “But you’re an adult. So is Evelyn. And I know this isn’t just a game. It
Sebastian's POV I’m in a blind rage now as we enter the track. If it was possible, I know I’d have smoke coming out my ears. Evelyn is still trying to convince me to stop whatever it is I’m doing. “It’s not worth it!” She’s been stressed the entire ride, but I can’t stop seeing in red. The guy
It’s a few days before I hear from Jack again. “You want the good shit or bad?” He asks over a phone call. I tell him I want everything. This is important. “Then I’ll start with the good. Your initial fears of this having to do with your former roommate? He’s heavily involved. In fact, seems lik
Sebastian's POV Evelyn’s bodyguard is six foot six and goes by Tank. He is built as his nickname suggests, with muscles that seemingly look like they’ll burst from his shirt, and tattoos wrapped around many limbs. He’s even got the bald head. In my head, I just call him The Rock after Dwayne J
