Danger (The Driven World)(2)
Author: Logan Chance

 

With only ten races left in the season, will Danger be able to walk the straight and narrow? Will the Granders be able to keep this bad boy under control?

 

At seventeen, Danger held the record for fastest time set by anyone in the Quarter Midgets for three years in a row. His childhood is shrouded in mystery and there’s no record of him or his real name before the age of twelve. Did his mother really name him Danger? What do we really know about this mysterious man? We know he’s got a killer driving ability to burn up a race track. His speed and accuracy on the course is something other drivers envy.

One thing is certain, Danger knows how to get a crowd pumped up.

What do you think of the man Grander has declared will take their team all the way to victory?

 

We have some opinions here:

 

Dr. Martin Scarborough, psychologist from John Hopkins University, “Danger appears to be experiencing abandonment issues probably brought on by a mother or father leaving him. There isn’t much we know about the man’s childhood, but I can gather by his actions he didn’t have the most pleasant of one.”

 

Hailey Bloom, Hollywood actress who reportedly spent one night with Danger, “Let me just say, this man has some serious skills in the bedroom. He’s also not a talker. Kind of dark, broody, and when I asked him to call me the next day he laughed. Not that I cared, I would never date a guy like him.”

 

Veronica Chastain, Supermodel, “Danger was tons of fun! I loved our time together!”

 

Chief Roger Dean, Chief of Police in Los Angeles, “Danger Hudson walks a very thin line between what’s legal and illegal. I’ve seen him scooped up many times for illegal racing as well as partying and drugs just in the past year that he’s popped up onto the scene.”

 

So, again, who is Danger Hudson? Do you know? Have any wild guesses? Drop them into the comments below.

May 2020

 

Honeybear32: I think he might be the old pornstar Richie Walens who left the industry two years ago.

 

BlackWidowGamer: He’s a loser. Too bad he’ll never amount to much.

 

*DancingPrincess*: I love Danger and I don’t care who he is. I want to have his babies!!!

 

Loserville227: He’s obviously a deranged only child seeking attention in the form of dangerous acts. Did you see him in that video? Link below, he’s got a death wish.

KellyBelly: Maybe he just hasn’t found the right woman yet!!!

 

Ugh. I’ll give Thad Jeffries a ball and chain around his neck.

And Danger Hudson, double ugh.

I shut off the computer, unable to read even one more article about the man who America has deemed ‘The Playboy of Racing.’ KellyBelly thinks Danger hasn’t met the right woman yet, ha. He’s met plenty of women.

Every woman who looks at him sees their innermost fantasies come to life. It isn’t his fault he was born to look like pure sex. And I don’t mean the good-boy-nice type of sex either. No, I mean the you’re-sore-the-next-day-and-have-a-lifetime-of-naughty-memories kind of sex. He looks like he’d be rough with you one minute and then super gentle the next.

He’s a walking, talking advertisement for the right type of dirty sex you’ve always dreamed about having but were too afraid to even think about asking for.

My phone rings on the granite countertop of my kitchen, breaking me from my thoughts about our team’s newest driver. Grander Racing was started by my father many years ago when I was just a little girl. Luther Grander was a driver with a promising future that took a curve too quickly and ended up in a wheelchair. Now he runs the Grander Racing Team.

And soon, he’s set to retire and I plan on stepping up to take his place. If I can prove to him I’m serious about the job. Also, I didn’t have the greatest press when Thad Jeffries and I broke up. More like the jerk cheated on me, and I was left trying to clean up the media aftermath.

I scramble off my shabby-chic oversized sofa, padding into the kitchen to grab my cell off the counter. “Hello.”

“Monterey, hope you’re not busy,” my father says. “Need a favor.” He knows I’ll do whatever he asks. He should know by now I’m serious about proving myself and taking over his company.

Well, our company.

“Anything,” I say, hoping it’s something simple and not something that involves leaving my comfy ranch-style home in the Hills of LA.

“It’s Danger, he’s been arrested.” He takes a deep breath. “Again.”

Of course he has. “What is it this time? Drugs? Alcohol? Oh wait” —I tap my chin— “let me guess, street racing?”

“Yeah that,” my father says, going into a lengthy explanation of which precinct he’s in and to bring him to my father’s house once I’ve grabbed him.

Every time we’re in LA for a race, Danger gets picked up for illegal street racing. I don’t know where he finds these people. No one knows anything about where he came from. It’s weird, and I remember telling my father we should tread carefully before signing him to our team’s roster this year.

But my father brushed me off, saying we needed Danger to win. And so far this season, Danger’s held an impressive lead.

I hang up the phone once I’ve got all the details, and head off to get ready to pick this man up. I make my way downtown in record time, and once Danger walks through the doors, my breath is knocked out of my chest.

It really is a shame that he looks absolutely sinful. And I swear every time I’m near him my heart does something funny. But then I remember why I’m here and what Danger is costing our company by his blatant disregard for keeping himself from being arrested.

“Get in.” I motion to the passenger side door of my white convertible Mercedes. I need to get him to my father’s house, so Dad can lay into him for what is once again ‘reckless behavior.’

He stares at me for a moment, and I’m not sure if he’s expecting me to open his door, or what. And then he offers me that megawatt smile that everyone loves most about him. All pearly white teeth sparkle in the low light of the street lamp, and I roll my eyes.

“Sure thing, sweetheart.” He slides into the car like he owns it.

I get behind the wheel and start the engine. “You’re out of control. You can’t control anything in your life.”

He turns to face me, his dark brown eyes searing into me. “That’s where you’re wrong. I have control over everything. You don’t think I could get behind the wheel of a race car and drive it above two-hundred miles per hour without losing it, if I didn’t practice control in all things.”

He has me there. “It’s not that hard to drive.”

He leans closer, the smell of him tickling my nose and making me come alive with fire. “You race?”

I raise my chin in the air, not wanting him to see me coming undone before him. “Yes, as a matter of fact, I can race. You don’t grow up with a father like mine and not know how to handle a car.”

He leans even closer, our noses almost touching. I can lick him if I wanted. And boy do I want to. “Prove it.” He nods toward the street.
