Master Unchained (Stealth Guardians book 2)
“Tessa punched the gas pedal of the Mercedes down harder, but the car slowed.
“No!” she ground out, looking at the gas gauge, but to her astonishment, the tank was nearly full.
“What the…?”
The engine noise ceased, and the steering wheel locked. The car had stalled.
“So much for German engineering!” she cursed. She put her foot on the brake and pressed the starter button. Nothing! Frustrated, she hit her fists against the steering wheel. “Damn it! Start already!” When she hit the starter button again, her eyes fell on the gearstick. No wonder the engine wasn’t starting: she was still in drive. She put the car in park and tried again. All she heard was a click.
“Please, please!” she begged, but the engine didn’t respond. “Shit, shit, shit!”
She couldn’t stay here like a sitting duck. She had to get away. Oh God, what she’d seen back there had terrified her down to the marrow of her bones. She didn’t want to think about it, not now, or it would paralyze her.
