Sedative

Prologue

-DANIEL'S POV-

                            
IT WAS raining.

At exactly midnight, I was here at a dark alley. The only ray of light that's lighting up the alley were just two hanging bulbs from the wall. In the palm of my hands, was a paper with an address written on it. It said that there should be a hidden club here somewhere.

I walked under the drizzling rain and stopped when I saw a big rusty door on my right.

"Hopefully, this is the one." I whispered to myself as I hold onto the handle of the door."

Once I opened it, loud pop music drums in my ears and I pushed back the hoodie that was covering my head. I breathe in the air and I instantly fell in love with it. Ah, how I love the smell of marijuana.

I put the note back in my pocket and make my way to the bar. I took a seat and signaled the bartender.

"I'll have two shots." I nodded at him and turned my body to face the stage.

My eyes roamed the room and stopped at every single girl that was busy stripping at the pole. Damn, I should really stop with all these soon. A sweet voice interrupted my train of thoughts and I quickly sat up straight. I looked to my right and saw a pretty girl wearing a knee length black dress that hugged all her curves.

"Enjoying the view huh?" She sets a wicked grin.

"Boys will be boys, eh?" I grinned and took one shot from the tiny glass that the bartender served.

"So what makes you come here all alone?" I asked, while plopping my elbow on the table.

"I just had stuff to deal with." She replied quickly and stir her drink around like a bored person.

"Well, have a great night then." I took my last shot and stood up.

Wiping my mouth with my sleeve, I headed towards the private room they all say. It has been too long since I got laid. I'd love to have that feeling again.

Walking through the hallway of rooms, the sound of girls screaming made me more excited. Finally, I got to an empty room that was on my left. Taking the first step inside the room, I saw a gorgeous chick wearing a black knee length dress that hugs all her curves. I smirked, she has no idea of how lucky she is tonight.

I closed the door behind me and walked towards her. She gave me a seductive look, caressing her body with both of her hands. Damn, she's good. I pulled her closer, breathing into her scent. While kissing her neck, a sudden loud thud came hitting my head which causes my body to lose balance.

I tripped to the left, trying to regain my balance. The room was spinning by the time I stood still and the last thing I saw was the colour black.

I could feel myself waking up. My head was thrusting in pain and a dim orange light was visible through my eyelids. I feel myself laying down on the cold tiled floors with my back leaning against the wall. My hands were both tied up behind my back. Shit, I was scared to even open my eyelids. God knows what I'll see once I open them.

Seconds passed and suddenly someone kicked my legs. That caused me to open my eyes.

"I know you're awake." A voice spoke, it's a girl to be precise.

"Who the hell are you?" I asked, she better have a good explanation.

"Pfft." She scoffed, crossing her arms across her chest.

That was weird. My eyebrows furrowed while I try my best to untie the ropes that was tying both of my hands. My eyes landed on the doors and it was tightly closed. Great.

"Trust me honey, there's no way you can untie that." She smirked, while sitting on the bed with her legs crossed.

"What the fuck do you want?? As far as I know, your face doesn't ring any bells." I explained.

"You don't know me, but I know you." She stood up, while making her way towards me.

My adrenaline quickens at the sight of her getting close to me. This is definitely the first time I was intimidated by a girl. But damn I have to say that she's hot. She squat down on top of my stomach and looked directly into my eyes.

"Not bad." She commented after she was done observing my face.

She brought her face closer to mine until both of our noses were touching. There was a slight gap between our lips and I was hesitating if I should close it. She pulled in closer and I closed my eyes. Ready to feel her lips against mine.

"You seriously think I would kiss you?? Please." She laughed, and suddenly I felt a knife touching my hand.

"Stay still. You don't wanna lose your hand do you?" She said, and I instantly knew she was going to cut the rope.

Should I run? I mean, she could be one of those crazy ass girls who go crazy when they see a dead ass gorgeous looking man. Yes my self esteem are very high, judging by how girls always give me looks and laughs cheekily when I go out in public.

Once the rope are cut, I immediately stood up. Who cares if I hurt her, I need to get far far away from here. I pushed her aside and ran as fast as I could to the door. Reaching out for the doorknob, I heard the sound of a gun clicking.

I closed both of my eyes thinking, WELL SHIT.

I've waited so long to re-write this story and I can't explain how relieved I am to have finished this chapter. Some of you might not know this but I actually published this book around 2 years ago and it almost got to 1K readers but my stupid ass brain decided to delete this story because at that time I have no idea how to continue the story. So here I am trying to get this book until it reaches 1K or more (hopefully!!). Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter and stay tuned for the next chapter.

sincerely, a r i
