Chapter 29: Outrageous Day

Evening came and I am on my towards the club. Zephyr texted me to tell me that he won't be at the club until midnight because he had to take care of something with his friends. He actually mentioned that to me this morning that he and his friends are planning to build their own company. Although they don't know what kind of business it is but they wanted to be business partners.

So I was on my way towards the club, walking through the busy street. This is going to be a good night, I hope. Now that Zephyr and I are getting better, I look forward every time we spend together at the club. But this is kind of awkward too. Now, everyone in the club knows that the boss and I had a thing so the customers have been treating me so different than before. Better actually but weird. It's kind of unfair to the others.

On my way, my phone rang and saw that it was Zephye who's calling me.

"Hey." I answered.

"Hey, pretty. Are you already at the club?"

"Not yet. Still walking through the streets but I'm near there."

"Sorry, I didn't pick you up this time, babe. This thing with the boys really needs a touch up so I have to be here." His sounded so guilty making me chuckle.

"Don't be sorry. I understand." I told him. "And I'm fine walking to work."

"Be safe, alright?"

"Yeah. You too."

"I will." I can sense that he is smiling on the other line. "I just want to know that you are doing fine there. Call me if you needed anything. I love you."

"I love you too." I replied almost a whisper then I ended the call. He acts like my boyfriend, eh?

"Got a call from the boyfriend, eh?" Someone spoke from behind. I turned around and saw that it was Kyle.

I smiled as I saw him. "Hey! This is the first time that we see each other on the way to work."

Kyle chuckled and shrugged. "Well, my car broke down yesterday so I have to walk while it is under repair."

"Oh, guess we will keep on bumping to each other in that case."

"Actually, I think it is better walking to work than driving there." He stated, grinning. "And I thought that Cloud is driving you to the club."

"He told me that he had to take care of some stuffs with the guys so he won't be back at the club until midnight."

"Oh, guess that Donna will be bossy once again." He murmured, chuckling.

Wait, what is that smile he just did? "You like her, don't you?" I teased.

Kyle seems to be surprised at my question. "What? Of course not."

"Yeah, yeah. Keep lying to yourself." I rolled my eyes.

He scoffed then shrugged it off. "Donna and I are two opposite people. Our personality sure won't even match."

"Well, have you heard anything about opposite attraction and stuff?"

Kyle shook his head. "Nah. Those kinds of things are just a waste of my time."

"Oh really? You're the one who is always out there and flirting with random customers. Just say it, you like Donna. I can see it in your eyes."

"But she likes Zephyr."

"So?" I tsked. "That doesn't matter. Zephyr didn't even like her."

"Because he loves you." Kyle wiggles his eyebrows at me and I slapped his forehead to top the teasing because we are talking about him anyway.

"Bugger off." I hissed, and playfully pushed him away.

We reached the crossing and we are just near the club. Kyle is surely one dear friend of mine. We may have act like this but we are just fine. I consider him already my good and precious friend. I don't want to let him go and I wanted the best for him. And I love him like my brother. I never had a guy that cares me like he does. Well, Zephyr is different of course.

Zephyr is really more like a lover while Kyle is the brother kind of thing. Seriously, coming to that club gives my life some luck and excitement. My life before this, it was all the same and boring. Well except for Avery because she makes my day so perfect but when it comes to work, I want to find more because everything was just shit.

Hmm, when will Zephyr and I be official? I can't wait to be his girlfriend or anything. But Zephyr said that he wants us to be official on the proper time.

Okay, in just a few walks then I am already at the club. But before I could cross the padestrian lane, a black BMW car stopped right in front of me. Oh talk about rudeness. There is a huge highway where he can cross.

Then the driver's door opened revealing Vincent.

My eyebrows touched seeing him here. Looks like he didn't do this by accident. He is really aiming for me to meet.

"What are you doing here?" I begun.

He remained quiet but his hair is messed up. "Let's talk."

I scoffed. "Oh, hold your horses. I have work to do so I can't talk to you right now." Walking past him, I thought he will let this pass but he grabbed my arm and pulled me back to him.

"Hey, back off, man."

"You are the one who should back off, man. Leave me and my girl alone." He spat at Kyle. "Let's talk, Eleina. Please." His eyes are very droopy and I don't know why he is acting to different right now. He looks like he didn't sleep for days! What's wrong with him?

"No." I answered sternly, walking back to Kyle. He even held a protective arm in front of me so Vincent won't go near me.

"Please." Vincent begged, going down on his knees making him attract attention from the people around us. Kyle was turning his head to me and just let me behind him.

Shit. This is embarrassing.

"Oh how cute." Some random people commented at us like we are some romantic couple. Gross.

"Vincent, get up, you idiot." I hissed, stepping away because I can't deal with this bullshit.

"Don't make me try and use this to scare you, Eleina." His voice darkens in seconds as he lifted his cardigan a little showing me the gun that was shove in his garter belt.

Oh crap, he's insane. Kyle tried to take me away already. "Come on, Eleina. This guy is crazy."

"Fuck you, boy." I heard his grunt but before I could turn around, I hurt a loud gunshot causing me to scream and Kyle just fell beside me. The people around us started to run away as they hear it.

My eyes widen seeing the blood coming out of Kyle's back. With a shaky posture, I looked up to see Vincent who had brought out his gun and it was pointing at me.

"Kyle." I cried, shit.

Kyle was still moving and groaning. "Run, Eleina. Call Zephyr."

"No! I'm not leaving you here."

"Run!"

"Oh don't you dare run, sweetheart." Vincent's hoarse voice sounded so creepy and cracky for some unknown reasons. "Or I will shoot his damn head."

I quickly bit down my lip and tried to hold what's in my mouth. I let out a deep sigh and brushed my face with my hand. "Fine. I'm coming with you. Just pleas, don't hurt anyone."

Vincent finally put his gun down and opened his car door. "Get in the car."

Kyle was curled on the floor as he tried to stand up. "Don't, Eleina"

"I have to or Vincent is going to hurt you again." I told him, "Somebody please help him." I begged some random people walking around.

"Eleina!"

Fuck. Vincent is loosing control. I followed him without saying anything as my eyes were fixed in Kyle. Someone help gum. I have to be careful once I agreed coming with Vincent. Danger is always in place when Vincent is with you. I have to inform Zephyr right away. I was about to get my phone inside my bag when Vincent brought out his gun all of a sudden.

"Woah! What's your problem?" I gasped, my back hits the car door behind me.

"Give me your phone."

"What?"

"Give me your fucking phone, Eleina. I don't want you go and calling your boyfriend and asking for help." He grunted.

Crap, this is shit. Even if I don't want to I handed him my phone then he throw it out the window.

"What the—!" I didn't managed to finish my gasp when Vincent pointed his gun at me one more time.

"You will come with me, Eleina." He stated, "I made up my mind, I just don't want our daughter. I want you too."

My eyes widen in shock. "Vincent, you are not thinking straight. Do you even know what you are saying?"

"I know what I'm fucking saying, Eleina. And I'm not kidding. I want you with me."

"Vincent, you are scaring me. You have to stop the car right now." I mumbled.

"No. I want to be with you and our daughter. It was a mistake when I let you go 5 years ago and I am not making the same mistake again. You and I together with Avery. We will be together."

Shit, since when did Vincent became like this? I mean, I know he's a freaking psychopath but he became he even worse. This man suetously needs help. A major help. Oh please, Zephyr. You have to help us.

"Where are you taking me?"

"At my home."

"Wait, I thought you are already getting married and you have a daughter, right?"

"I don't want them. I want you."

"You're crazy!" I exclaimed, horrified. I have to call Vivian and tell her that she should keep an eye on Avery. But Vincent just broke my phone! How can I make sure that Avery is fine?

Shit. I just put Kyle in danger. This shouldn't happen to him. God, please let him be okay. And I hope my daughter is okay.

"Vincent, where is your daughter?"

"She's with Jess." He replied, not taking his eyes off the road but he is still holding his gun.

"Jess?" My mouth agape. She is the mother of that child? He got her and me pregnant at the same time? "Where are they now?"

"I-I don't know." He started to stutter then messed up his hair a couple of times.

He was driving really fast and I don't know where this is going because he is taking me out of the city. And I'm getting really scared right now and I'm really hard not to show it through my face. I have to remain calm so that Vincent won't go crazy or something.

Vincent took me to this place where everything in the area seems like they are minding their own business. This is a very occupied place and I think half an hour drive from the city.

Then it was a highway then noticed that he was driving us through the woods. Like the house is very hidden. I can see from a distance that there are lights so those must be people living nearby but he keeps on driving further. Until we got near this old mansion kind of thing but looks really abandoned and broken.

He took the car inside the garage. Shit. I have no more escape if this thing happened.

Vincent got out and I remained inside the car. I don't know what do. So instead, he opened the door for me. He leads me to the entrance of the house  which is connected the kitchen and the place is a freaking mess.

The house is huge but it is very creepy because you know that a psychopath is living in this shit.

Vincent locked the door from inside with a padlock so it is impossible for me to get out as he puts the keys inside his pocket. He walked toward his fridge and opened it to grab a beer to drink it straight. My eyes roam around the area to see if I had some chance to get out but as long as Vincent is holding that damn gun, I can't move to do it.

"Why did you brought me here?" I managed to ask.

Vincent scoffed and grinned. "To be with me, obviously."

My eyes narrowed at him. "Was this place always like this?"

"Yeah." He smiled then sat down on the couch. "Our room is upstairs. The first door on the right. Avery's room will be on the left."

I bit my lower lip and went up to see it. Maybe there is a window that I can escape to. I hurried upstairs to the room he is talking about my jaw dropped seeing it. If downstairs is a mess then this place is much horrible.

Picture frames are scattered on the floor, broken DVDs and stuffs and...some cigarette boxes too. And damn, is that a condom on the floor? Yuck. I can't believe this. Is this really Vincent? His condition got even worse.

Then as I walk around the room, I found out that this is actually not his room alone. This must be his and Jess' room because they are burned and torn pictures on the floor and I'm scared to know what happened to them.

Even if Jess betrayed me, she is still a mother and she and her daughter deserves the safety even from Vincent. The windows are actually shut and they three woods was nailed to it making me unable t see from outside.

Don't tell me he has been living like this with Jess and their daughter? This is horrible.

My eyes starts to get blurry as it sinks into my mind that it is hard for me to get out. What if Kyle didn't survive the shot earlier, he is the only witness of what happened. He is the only one that can help me and tell Zephyr or the cops everything.

I bit down my lip as it starts to quiver. I immediately run down the stairs to see Vincent lying on the couch and watching tv. "Did you like the room, sweetheart?"

I took a deep breath before answering. "Where is Jess and Maylie?"

Vincent remained silent then answered a few seconds later. "Why do you even care? I have you now so they are out of our lives as you and I start a new life together."

"You're crazy, Vincent. You're crazy." My voice cracked as I nearly burst into tears.

"Yeah, crazy for you." He grinned and jump off the couch to me. "You are my life, Eleina. That's why I gave you everything five years ago. But you left me and I became lost."

My eyebrows furrowed as I listen to his story.

"I can't lose you again, sweetheart. I have to do everything I can to find you." He continued. "I moved out of my house and stayed here with Jess and our daughter. She was so willing to make me happy and make me forget about you. But no fucking way that will happen. I always shout for your name, call for your name and moan your name. Jess is a piece of junk that is obsess with me. I slept with her because she seduced me before and I found out that she is pregnant, I let her in as we move in to this place while I look for you."

Okay, I am beyond terrified right now.

"I locked all the way that you can escape, so Jess won't escape either. When she finds out that I'm not taking my medication anymore, she tried to escape with our daughter but I can't let that happen." He laughed, evilly then drink his beer one more time then smashed it on the floor when he was done causing me to jump.

"Now, I found where you are and I have to do everything I can to take you back. You and I will never be apart again, sweetheart. I will give you everything again. What all you need." He stepped closer to me and hooked both of his hand on my neck a little harsh. "You are mine, Eleina. And that bastard Zephyr won't stand any chance."

Tears started to roll down my cheeks as he pushed me away and he went upstairs, leaving me in this dumpy living room.

I am in a serious trouble.

How can I ducking escape this place? I have to get out.

Zephyr.

Oh God, help me.

I crouched down on the floor and just cried out.

Avery needs to be safe. Zephyr please keep my daughter safe. Please.

As long as Avery is safe, I don't have anything to worry about.

To be continued...

I know how huge step this is from the last chapter but please tell me if this is okay. Actually, this scene just popped into my mind this morning and I finished this chapter immediately at noon.
