Week 451 – He dashed to his car and tore after them

Wrong.

The word kept running through his mind. The look on Sasha’s face as the car drove away wouldn’t leave Graham’s mind. Not only was there pure terror on it, but there was more than that there was reproach, like he was responsible for what was going to happen to her.

Even if Dylan was her brother that didn’t mean that he hadn’t done something to hurt her, and she’d told him quite categorically that the man was not related to her.

If they weren’t siblings then what else did that leave? They were the similar age, so that really left only two options, friends or lovers.

Ex-lovers?

There was no doubting that she was afraid of this man, and that she hadn’t wanted to go with him. There was zero proof that she was in any way mentally incompetent when it came to making her own decisions.

Yet he’d take her power from her. Decided for her. And possibly handed her over to someone who intended her harm.

It was the easy move to dismiss his reservations, continue on with his walk, forget about the whole thing and assume he’d done the right thing making sure a vulnerable woman was taken someplace safe.

But he couldn’t do that. Not while he had a doubt. He dashed to his car and tore after them, all he’d do was see where this cabin of Dylan’s was, check it out, confirm whether or not Sasha was safe there, and if she was he’d go home, if she wasn’t he’d call in the cops.

And hope he could live with the guilt if he’d just handed an innocent woman over to someone who was going to hurt her.
