#Chapter2
---Wrong car-02
Lucy silently wept in her heart. /"It's just a jar, Nyx./"
/"It's my emotional support jar. I need it!/"
THEN WHY DID YOU FORGET IT?
How the hell do you even forget a jar in a place you’re forbidden to go to?
Before Lucy could say anything else to try to stop her, Nyx closed the door of the car, put on her hood to cover her hair and walked towards the building. Behind her, Lucy drove the car away in a corner and sat on the passenger's seat, anxiously waiting.
Nyx had worked for a few years in the Eris company and she knew the building very well, so getting inside it wasn't too much of a hindrance. If everything went according to her perfectly crafted plan, she would be out of there in five minutes. However, just as she was about to scan her pass card to get in the elevator, a loud shout echoed through the hallway.
/"SHE'S THERE!/"
Oh shit!
Panic flashed on Nyx's face. The elevator was still on the tenth floor, and there was no time to wait for it. Not when at least four security guards were running towards her, all of them at least two heads taller than her and twice her size.
Holy shit!
She kind of expected such a thing to happen, but she didn't think that that many security guards would come after her. The sight of those men running towards her with all their might was truly something that could make someone tremble in fear.
Abandoning her plan, Nyx started to run the way she came from.
The people who worked in the building, being familiar with how Nyx Letti’s personality was, shook their heads and sighed. /"Miss Letti is doing it again./"
/"ROBERT, DON'T BE LIKE THIS!!!/" Nyx yelled at one of the security guards as she ran faster than ever in her life.
But Robert ignored her and kept running after her.
Fortunately, there had been quite a big distance between her and the security guards when that random person snitched on her, so she could get in Lucy’s car and get away without getting caught.
Shit, shit, shit!
/"Robert, come on, my man. What about all of those years of friendship?/" Right then she felt the heavy footsteps behind her getting closer. /"ROBERTO JULIO RICARDO MONTOYA DE LA ROSA RAMÍREZ!/" Nyx yelled in panic.
Robert whose surname was Malko: /".../"
Did Miss Letti get hit in the head? He wondered inwardly.
Nyx managed to get out of the building, but didn't dare to stop running and look around for Lucy’s car. She ran towards the road with no hesitation, heavily panting.
Dear Lord, I have regrets.
I should have worn a sports bra!!!
When Nyx was almost running out of breath, and her lungs felt like they were burning, she finally saw the black car and ran straight to it. As instructed, Lucy kept the engine running, so when Nyx got inside, she immediately drove away before she could even let out a breath of relief.
From inside her car, Lucy looked at Nyx who was running away in the other direction of where she had parked and then got inside a car that was definitely not hers. With wide open eyes she watched as Nyx drove away.
WHOSE FUCKING CAR DID SHE GET INTO?!
Nyx looked at the side mirror reflecting the four security guards who were left behind and gave a chortle.
It was right then that she noticed that the inside of the car seemed to be a bit different from what she remembered it to be five minutes ago, and it reeked of alcohol. And there was music playing... and Lucy was nowhere to be seen...
Fucking hell...
Nyx felt someone's gaze on her. And if that wasn't creepy enough, she felt like she was in a horror movie where the psychopath was right behind the girl who for some reason just won't stop screaming, and she already started praying for mercy.
God, please help me. What the fuck is going on? Where is Lucy? Where am I?
Slowly, as though she didn't want to scare away the person that was staring at her... or maybe to give them a chance to disappear before she started screaming her lungs out, Nyx tried to steal a peak behind her. Her eyes went up to the rear mirror, hoping that maybe her mind was playing tricks on her or Lucy was.
Ah, yes. Lucy, that punk, was definitely trying to scare her as revenge.
But the confused drunk face she saw in the mirror wasn't the cute and soft-looking Lucy with her golden locks and beautiful green eyes. The face in the mirror made Nyx’s head go blank as she could only stare at the person as if she had seen a ghost. For a moment she even thought she might be dreaming.
/"No…/" Her face paled as she tried to rationalize what was happening. However, this only led to her completely forgetting that she was driving, therefore losing control of the car. The car swirled from right to left, almost hitting other cars and derailing out of the road.
WHAT IS GOING ON?! WHERE IS LUCY? WHY IS HE HERE?!
/"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING, YOU CRAZY WOMAN?/" The man in the back seat finally snapped out of his confused state when the car swirled violently from one side to the other. He grabbed the wheel from the back seat, kind of lying over Nyx, and took control of the car right before it could crash against a tree trunk that looked so sad... and dead...
The short distance between the man and her made her heart beat uncontrollably against her chest. The warmth radiating from him and the strong scent of alcohol made Nyx realize that the man was indeed here in the car with her.
She felt like she had stepped into a parallel universe. Everything felt so unreal.
As the man drove the car to the side of the road and parked it, he stopped screaming and anger and annoyance flashed in his eyes.
