Ride Hard

Description

I find Ride in my basement. He’s chained, angry, and wants to punish someone. He wants revenge. I understand, because I’ve been living in hell, wanting that same exact thing. I can’t do that, however. I have more than just myself to think of. I feel sorry for Ride, but I can’t let that sympathy jeopardize me or my mom. Then, something happens. Something awful. Something that can’t be undone.
The only person I can turn to is Ride. I beg him to help me. We strike a bargain. He’ll come to my rescue, if I help him escape. It’s a bargain with the devil, but I don’t have a choice. I have to trust him, trust that once I free him he won’t kill me. But it’s not my death he wants.
It’s not even money. He wants me.
