Chapter 8 - The ChaseThe highway disappeared beneath sheets of rain.

David drove with both hands locked around the steering wheel.

Then he saw the headlights.

A dark sedan followed them.

When David changed lanes, it changed lanes.

When he accelerated, it accelerated.

Leah looked into the mirror.

"No..."

David already knew.

His mother.

The sedan moved closer.

Leah screamed as another contraction hit.

David called 911.

"We're being followed," he told the dispatcher. "My wife is in labor. We need help."

The sedan pulled alongside them.

Lightning illuminated the driver's face.

His mother stared through the rain.

There was no hesitation in her expression.

Only obsession.

She suddenly turned the wheel toward them.

David slammed the brakes.

The sedan hydroplaned.

It spun across the highway before crashing into a muddy ditch.

David kept driving.

For the first time, he didn't look back.
