She watched me, I could see her thinking about it. Her lips twitched and she leaned close to me. "If you win, I'll have sex with you." She whispered into my ear. I smirked as I felt her hair brush against my cheek. Fuck. She was that certain she would win.

I definitely anticipated it. I did have an incentive to win now. Lira smiled and got into her car. I tossed the cigarette away and got into mines. Oh shit, I couldn't fuck up Cal's car. I'd almost forgotten.

We both started our cars, the powerful engines purred in excitement. I also couldn't help but feel the adrenaline rush through my veins. I was fucking excited and I couldn't help it.

Of course if I did win, I would never pressure Lira in any way. I didn't know what the future held but I would wait for her, even if it was a lifetime. She was after all, fucking perfect.

When the man let off the flag, our cars sped down the track. The tires screeched as rubber burned on the asphalt. I held onto the steering wheel tightly and manoeuvred with ease. Fuck. Cal's car was perfectly balanced and light. Maybe that's why he wins.

I looked to my left and could see Lira driving her car with immaculate accuracy. Our cars veered around all the bends and turns. I was in the lead but only by centimetres.

The finish line was in view. Fuck. I accelerated and felt the car surge forward. I heard the sound of metal scraping as the car touched the barriers. I pulled it away, shit. I was going to fast to control it properly.

I felt a crash and my car suddenly lost all control. I pulled on the wheel but to no avail. I pushed down on the brake and stopped the car from colliding with the barriers.

Fuck. I watched as Lira went past me, one hand on the wheel and a smile on her face. She bumped my car. Fuck.

After she crossed the finish line, she walked up to me and grinned. I was about to say something but I saw Raf and Cal head my way. "You fucking idiot! You scratched my car." Cal lamented.

"Shut up. It's only a scratch." I couldn't help but chuckle. Lira chuckled. "Stop whining and let's race. I've heard that you're the best, do you want to have a chance to live up to your name?" She addressed Cal.

Cal clenched his jaws when he also inspected the rear of his car, where Lira hit it with hers. The tail light was broken and the paintwork also scratched. He looked at her. "Fine let's race." I know that determined tone of his. He was also very pissed.

They both got into their cars and lined up at the start. "You lost you dickhead. How could you lose? Now she probably thinks you're an idiot." Raf mentioned to me as we watched from the sidelines.

I crossed my arms. "I beg to differ. We're having dinner later." I smirked at him. "So make yourself scarce."

Raf let out a deep sigh. "Fine. But you're spending a lot of time with her. Just be careful." He rubbed his palms together. "What do you mean by be careful?" I questioned him. He looked ahead at the track.

"She's Admir's sister. For all we know it could be their plan, for her to get close to you and then kill you. It's not a crazy idea Enzo. I'm just saying, watch your back." He said. I sighed. He was right. It could all well be a trick. As I looked to the track I tried to think of the best. Surely not. She wouldn't do that.

The race began and both cars ate up the track as quick as lightening struck. Cal was in the lead with Lira right on his tail. They took the turns with Cal never once giving Lira the room she needed to overtake him. But he slipped for a second and that's all it took for Lira to get her car side by side with his.
