Complicated relationships

VII

For the whole ride, Nick was terrified. He wasn't sure what is Rob gonna to do with him once they reached their destination. He didn't want to admit it but he wetted himself a little. He doesn't know how he survived jumping outside the balcony, but he is sure he can't fight a man the size of Rob.

"Sturniolo! are you alive." he heard loud knocking from outside.

"are you gonna get me out of here?" he dried his face, didn't want him to see him crying and think he won.

"in a moment," Nick could hear bit and pisces of the whispers outside.

"should we eliminate this one..."

"... the others are not enough..."

"... will gain power too."

"... only if at night..."

Nick didn't want to die alone without knowing why. He didn't have plan but he sure not gonna allow Rob and his friend to kill him.

"Come on, " said the guy with Rob, who opened the trunk and pulled Nick out roughly.

Nick saw that it's early in the morning. They were in the middle of nowhere. The other dude was taller than Rob with dark skin and hazel eyes. He looked to be around Nick's age.

"sorry Nick, we had to take you. The Wiccan can't have you. It will complete their ritual. Tonight we will break the spell." They moved toward an old gas station with no name.

"how am I involved in any of this nonsense?"

"your brothers already had been offered to Wiccan mother. " said Rob while unlocking the noisy front door.

"where are they now, I need to know. can I call them??" they went inside. Everything was dusty as if no one comes here ever.

"No you can't, and the answer to your first question is , I don't know." Rob  said holding him roughly with a look in his face that made Nick uncomfortable.

"what are you going to do?!" He didn't like the way they looked at each other.

"sorry Nick, the Wiccan mother won't accept a tainted offering " said the dark skinned guy while opening his buttons.
