PHOEBE
A ll I wanted that day was coffee and a little freedom—not him. I never
would have asked for him to come crashing into my life and take
complete control.
Although technically… I crashed into his.
“N! N! N!” The steering wheel rattled so violently I could barely hold
on as I desperately tried to turn into the skid.
The back wheels locked as the car fishtailed left then right on the ice.
“Oh, God!”
The car broke through the metal guardrail on Lake Shore Drive and
pitched down the snow-covered slope, barely missing a tree before
sideswiping a parked car.
“Sorry!” I called out to the car’s absent owner, my voice rising above
my continued struggle to regain control.
Just when I thought I had it, the car hit another patch of slick ice and
surged forward.
There was no traction. My steering wheel was useless.
The car went into a tailspin.
The horrible screech of metal scraping against metal rent the air when I
hit another parked car and kept spinning.
Through the fogged windshield, Belmont Harbor loomed at the end of
the tiny parking lot.
My throat closed as the blood left my body.
With numb fingers I clung to the useless steering wheel, already
imagining the icy, dark waters closing in around me.
The car spun again as a blur of trees, parked cars, and the harbor with its
empty docks whirled past my windshield in a hazy blur.
Another spin and I’d be in the water.
My arms flew up to protect my face as I screamed and squeezed my
eyes shut.
My shoulder and head slammed against the driver’s side window.
It took a moment for me to realize the car had stopped.
I kept my eyes closed, afraid to look.
I had seen enough television shows to know it took a few seconds for
the windows to crack and shatter from the pressure before the water poured
into a car.
Bracing for the sudden freezing deluge of murky Lake Michigan water,
every muscle in my body clenched.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three.
Nothing.
I peeked through my eyelashes.
At first, I mistook the gray skies for a wall of water surrounding my car.
Then the clouds and trees registered.
I turned my head so quickly, a furious rush of blood and pressure burst
in my neck as it cricked.
But I barely felt it… because a fresh fear gripped me.
The driver’s side of my car had crashed into the driver’s side of another
car, leaving us smashed together in a twist of metal and glass.
And through the window a pair of piercing emerald-green eyes glared
back at me.
PHOEBE
Despite the frigid chill in the air, I could practically feel the heat from
the man’s anger.
His car was pinned between mine and a sign pole, effectively
trapping him.
“I’m so sorry!” I yelled through my window. “Are you okay?”
This was not good.
On the passenger seat my phone lit up with my brother’s face.
And… it just got worse.
