บท 294: Vanishing Act

Couldn't people be more careful? Lena winced. Her vision swam as she tried to take note of her surroundings. The timing had been off. By how much, no one could tell. Enough that it messed everything up. 

The car thankfully managed to stay on the road. Someone at least knew which tires to hit to keep them on the road. The princess needed it to stay that way if she was going to survive the night. Right now, the chances of that seemed far slimmer than before. Especially after Lena managed to hit her head.
