CHAPTER 51

Russell’s POV.

My heart was pounding heavily against my chest as I sped down the highway. My mind was a barrage of emotions consisting of fear, anger and worry. I had promised to protect Elisa every step of the way, and the same did I say for her baby, but the baby wasn’t even here yet and I had alredy started failing in my promise to them. If anything happened to them, I knew that I could never forgive myself, and i would never forgive my brother either. This resolve was what motivated me to step on the gas pedal a little harder, which in turn made my car to travel a lot more faster. i was driving well over the speed limit but I couldn’t bring myself to care. I needed to

know that she was okay, that she was safe, and I couldn’t do it if I was ten miles away.

“Why couldn’t he just stay the hell away from her?" I wondered, slamming my fists angrily against the dashboard. It was definitely going to bruise, but again, I did not care. i was much too numb to actually feel any pain.
