"I'm gonna kill you!"
My words rang shrilly in my head, and in that moment, I meant it literally, and I could fantasize about it. About grabbing Maven by the collar, slamming him into a wall, and forcing him to feel even a fraction of the helplessness he had poured into my life these past few days.
I squeezed my eyes shut and tried to calm down, but even behind my eyelids, the visions played on—burning like film projected against darkness.
Then I forced a breath through my nose and exhaled slowly, deliberately.
Fine.
One last task.
I leaned forward, jaw clenched, and keyed the address into the car's navigation system. The screen flickered, the digital map spinning before locking into place.
Destination confirmed.
