Chapter 2: Free Drinks Are The Sweetest
"Well, your troublemaker friend is lucky we saved her on time," Shawn replied, still standing on her way.
"We? You and who?" Candy asked confused.
"I and my friends. Her drinks were laced with some drugs, and she was almost taking advantage of. After all, you were foolish to leave your friend alone in the club."
"I only went outside to take a call from my dad, I never knew something like this would happen. If I knew, I wouldn't have left her," Candy said, dejected.
"Umm, such a pity it happened already."
"Where is she now, the top floor?"
"No, Caden took her away."
"What? What if he kidnapped her or does something to her? Wait, are you here to take me along too?" Candy asked, suddenly bringing a knife from her thighs and pointing it at him. She can't let him take her too, if he does, how would anyone be able to look for them? No, she won't let him, never.
"Oh wow, I see you came fully prepared," Shawn said, smirking.
"I'm always prepared for guys like you, so if you know what's good for you, stay back and answer my questions truthfully or else," she threatened.
Shawn burst into laughter. Now he was really so annoyed. What's with these girls? Were they sent from hell to frustrate him and ruin his happy days? Today was his birthday, for heaven's sake. Birthdays were supposed to be happy days, and she should be happy they saved her friend from getting fucked up, and he was even searching for her to see whether she was safe or not. But here she is pointing a little knife at him and accusing them of being kidnappers. So ungrateful.l This was all Caden's fault. He shouldn't have saved that troublemaker of a girl.
"Now tell me, where's my friend, or I'll slit your throat," Candy threatened, walking closer to him and placing the knife close to his throat.
"Oh no, Jasmine, what have I gotten her into?" She muttered in her mind. It was all her fault. If she had taken her to their usual club, where she was known, this wouldn't have happened or maybe if she had stayed with Jasmine and ignored her dad's calls, then this bad guy wouldn't have had the chance to come close to her.
Her dad didn't call to say anything important, he only called to ask her how she was, if she needed anything, and so on. Ugh, she shouldn't have answered his calls.
"You can't even hold a knife properly, so how will you slit my throat? Tch, besides, I can see your hands are shaking, it seems you haven't killed someone before," Shawn answered with sarcasm, causing candy to look at her hands and just as he said, they were shaking badly.
"I think you should learn how to hold a knife properly before coming to point it at someone's throat," he continued, holding her wrist. Then, he removed the knife from her hands and threw it aside. He doesn't want to take chances, as this girl and her friend were untrustworthy and dangerous. What if she suddenly slit his throat, just like she said. He was only human, and might die with just a swipe.
"I know how to hold a knife, my hands are shaky because I'm afraid of what you guys might have done to my Jasmine. Mind you, I've killed someone before so, you should be getting scared of me," she defended with a straight face and Shawn chuckled.
.
"I'm sure you have. We didn't kidnap your troublemaker friend, so, don't annoy me more than Jasmine already did," Shawn answered.
"Then, where is she?"
"Caden took her with him."
"Why?" She asked and Shawn sighed. She undeniably likes asking foolish questions, and she's just as annoying as Jasmine. Birds of the same feather, flock together, so he wasn't surprised anymore.
"Should we have left her in this place, so every guy would have their way with her? You like asking foolish and sadistic questions. You know what?" He asked.
"What?"
"You ask questions like an illiterate. I'm sure you're one," he said, and her eyes widened in shock. How dare this stupid cocksucker call her an illiterate. He should know she has three certificates, and she was one of the most intelligent student back then in college. She felt the urge to throw her certificates at him and tell him how wrong he was.
"You're mistaken, I'm a graduate and I have thre..."
"I'm not interested in listening to your rants and questions anymore. It's getting late. This place is not appropriate for a little girl like you who can't hold a knife properly, especially not at night. Your friend is in safe hands, and she'll call you tomorrow when she wakes up. Now that I know you're safe, I think I should leave. You should leave too, before you fall into the hands of bad guys," Shawn interrupted, walking to the counter and taking a bottle of Shiraz, before strolling to the entrance of the club.
"Hey, wait," Candy called, running after him.
"What?
"Where.does he live? I mean, where does Caden lives?"
"You don't need to know, I already told you your friend will call you tomorrow," he answered, strolling out.
"Wait," Candy called, but he ignored her, getting into his car and drove away, leaving her standing. She wanted to ask more questions about her friend but since he didn't tell her, she'll have to find out herself.
She ran back into the club and also took two bottles of muscat, before leaving. Free drinks are the sweetest and everyone already ran out of the club.
