Chapter 68
The forest was dark, wet, and filled with night noises from crickets and other nocturnal creatures but Rachel was more afraid of the maniac dragging her along than anything else.
“Where are we going?” She finally asked him when they had been walking for nearly ten minutes with no bike in sight.
“Here!” He said gleefully, pointing at a large mound covered with grasses. “That’s my rental bike, baby.”
“Yay,” she replied dryly.
“Aw, cheer up, buttercups. We are about to go on an adventure,” he laughed. “Trust me, your life is about to get really exciting. I could tell that you were bored to death with that Ken doll husband of yours and I’m here to rescue you, Rachel. You should be thanking me.”
She hated the condescending way he spoke about Derek and her marriage but she knew that if she lost her temper right now, things would go sideways quickly and she didn’t want that.
