••• Charlotte’s POV •••
I got into the car and opened the rooftop of Ethan’s convertible car before driving toward the Moon Crest Pack. I needed to feel the night breeze to clear my mind.
After leaving the Palace’s vicinity, the road became more deserted. It was a long straight road ahead, so I decided to floor the accelerator.
I loved driving fast with the wind blowing around me, pushing my hair back.
It made me feel free.
When I saw the turn of the road ahead, I pressed down the break to slow down.
That was when I found out something was wrong with the brakes. No matter how hard I pressed down on the pedal, the car wouldn't slow down.
Oh no! The curve was coming closer; if I didn't do anything, my car would hit the barriers, and with the speed I was in, the impact would be fatal.
I couldn't find any other way to slow down my car, so I braced myself and jumped out of the car.
That was the only way to save myself.
