Ghosted.

chapter 4.

Back home now,Canary took off her shoes and headed for the comfort of her bed. Letting sleep take over,she sighed at the warmth of her bed.

Meanwhile, Eve was busy conniving a plan to get Red and Canary together. They were like a ticking bomb waiting to explode. Eve had no doubts that the attraction was there. All she needed to do was get them to have a normal conversation without trying to kill each other.
Eve looked over at Canary as she slept soundly. Her plans slowly coming together.

Canary screamed. Her hands shaking as tears fell from her eyes. Eve held her close. "It's okay,it's okay"
"He's coming.. He's going to get me.." She said shakily.
"Who's coming?" Eve asked. Worry evident in her eyes.
She raised her eyes to Eve's, about to tell her about Dante and how abusive he was towards her. But she changed her mind. "Um.. No one. It was just a nightmare."
"Cmon.. I know something's bothering you so just let it out. You've got nothing to lose. I mean,who am I going to tell?" Eve stroked her hair.

Canary thought for a second. "Dante.... My husband. I ran away from him. That bastard. I was basically sold to him by my stepmother. For 6 years he tortured,raped and abused me continuously. I had to get out Eve. Now,he's going to find me. I know it"
She explain with shaky breaths.

"Hey.. Hey." Eve cooed. "I won't let anyone hurt you" she soothed. "Cmon now. Go back to sleep"
Nodding, Canary laid her head down. But sleep was long gone now. Her mind drifting in different Paths And her heart beating rapidly.

......
Canary struggled with her shift. It was a weekend so the club was crowdy.. More than usual. Which was how she loved it actually. She needed the distraction.

Eve went down the stairs to the storage room were the drinks and glasses are kept to affirm if Red was still in there.
And he was,sipping his whiskey  he was shirtless too.
Good.

She went back up. Calculating what her next move should be. Her eyes sighted the fat chump on his way up with some glasses.
She smiled.
Whistling,she dragged his jeans down making him trip and fall down on his face. The sound of glass breaking and someone groaning caught Canary's attention. She approached him. "Are you okay?"
Fat chump was crying.
"Are you crying?" She asked.
"No! I just have something in my eyes" he sniffed.
Amused,she said "okay, sure. Maybe you should take a break. I'll cover for you."

"Oy! We need more glasses here" the barman said.
"I'll get it!" She went down to the storage. It's usual locked with some kind of code. "Oh it's open" She hummed to herself as she searched for the glass cups.

Red noticed her presence and leaned against the wall. Watching her as she moved her hips to the rhythm of her voice.
"Nice voice"
She shrieked,her hands on her chest "you scared me"
Chuckling,he moved closer to her. A little too close.
He subtly twirled her hair. Making her uneasy and very uncomfortable. She inhaled his Cologne. Which intoxicated her. There was something about him that was so sexy and masculine... And evil.
She immediately got back to her senses.
Um.. I'm gonna go now"
But before she could reach the doors,Eve locked it with a different code and then cut off the power connecting to the storage room,making everywhere go dark.
"Oops" Eve giggled before skipping away.

"You have got to be kidding me"she groaned." "Someone help!"
"Don't bother. It's soundproof" he sank into the chair.
She glared at him"Why you make a storage room soundproof?"
"Because I own this building and I can do what ever I want." He smirked.
