Chapter 8
It was her mother! “So you thought you could run from me did you?” her mother said in such a quiet and devilish tone. All the blood drained from her face and she thought she was going to faint. She needed to find a way to escape and one thing was for certain.
She knew why they were chasing her and why they wanted her baby dead.
Her mother would kill before she let a child of hers bare a child without being married first. Arianna’s heart began to pound like crazy. It seemed like it was about to bust out of her chest cavity! She needed to escape now! Her mother was capable of anything and she didn’t need to waste any time. She would not allow her mother to hurt her and her baby.
Looking around, she noticed that the man hadn’t gotten into the van yet. So without thinking she threw herself in the front seat and jumped out the driver side door. She was full out sprinting and she could hear foot steps behind her.
Her mother was screaming at her and it felt as if she running in slow motion. She couldn’t run as fast as she wanted and they were so close behind her. Then, she felt arms wrap around her and she screamed. It was all over now.
She wouldn’t go down without a fight.
