“I told you to keep away from my daughter and that’s what you’re going to do!” He whacked the young man across the back of the neck. The young man wailed but made no effort to get away.
They blocked her way back to the apartment.
What do I do now?
The keys she gripped in her hand gave her the answer. If she couldn’t get back to Milly’s place, she’d hide out in her car until either the wrestlers left or the rowdy antics of the others calmed down. They couldn’t keep it up all night. At least she hoped they couldn’t.
She’d only taken a few steps toward her car when she knew she was in real trouble.
Chapter Five
“Well, would you lookie here?”
The man, his black eyes bloodshot from booze, leered at Christy.
Christy froze, well aware that she had nowhere to run. All she could do was keep moving toward her car and hope for the best. She put her head down, glancing at him every so often, and tried to focus on getting to her car as fast as she could.
The first man was joined by another man with greasy, gray-streaked hair. He appeared out of the blue in front of her. She let out a little yelp, paused, then forged ahead, trying to go around him. Once she’d miraculously made it past him, she unlocked her car, yanked the driver’s door open, and threw her body inside.
“Hell, Gabe, why didn’t you stop her?”
Gabe stroked his dirty beard then was next to her, flattening his hands against the window. She jerked backward then hit the lock on the door.
His teeth, long and sharp like fangs, shone as he put on a nasty grin. “Hey, honeypot, don’t be like that. It’s the amber moon. Everyone’s having a good old time, so don’t go acting like you don’t want to play.” He grabbed his crotch. “You want some of this. I know you do.”
The larger man pushed Gabe out of the way. “Bitch, don’t try to tell us you’re not up for some fucking. I got a good whiff of you already. You’ve already creamed your pants once. Come on. We’ll lick you up real good.”
Christy fumbled with the keys, then startled when he flicked his long, flat tongue at her. His eyes flashed with flecks of amber.
Fangs and amber eyes. Just like the people in the pickup.
But she didn’t have time to think about that. Although she knew the car wasn’t working, she had to try. After a second and third attempt to put the key in the ignition, she finally got it in and turned it.
As she’d expected, nothing happened. That didn’t keep her stomach from flopping over in a sickening way. She searched her back pocket and was hit with another nauseating realization. She’d forgotten her phone. She was trapped without a way to call for help.
“Merle, stop fucking around.”
She let out a cry when Gabe jumped on top of the car’s hood, then stared at her through the windshield. The temperature inside grew warmer and sweat ran down the back of her neck and under her breasts. “Leave me alone!”
Gabe stuck out his bottom lip. “Aw, come on. That’s no fun.”
He got on his knees and started unbuckling his belt. Yanking the belt free, he whirled it around his hand and let out a whoop. “I know what you want. You want us to force you.”
“Go away!” She knew it was hopeless, but she couldn’t just sit there and say nothing.
“Is that it, bitch? Do you like it rough?” Merle dragged his tongue over the dirty windshield. “We can give it to you hard. Would you like it that way? Hard in the ass?”
When she turned away from Merle, she was shocked to see that Gabe had gotten his jeans down to his knees. His cock was erect and glistening with pre-cum.
“I’ll call the police!” Bluffing was all she had left.
But they didn’t buy it. Both men laughed.
“She’s going to call the cops, Merle. We’d better skedaddle.”
“Oh my, oh my. What will we do?” Merle pressed his fingers to his mouth, pretending to be horrified. Then the pretense was gone as he smacked the window with his fist. “Bitch, there ain’t no cops around here. Besides, even if there were, they’d be fucking some other cunt right now.” His wicked leer hardened. “Face it, bitch, you’re all ours.”
“I’m tired of waiting for her to come to her senses.” Gabe stood up, leaving his cock exposed, and lifted his arms over his head. He leaned over the roof of the car so that all she could see was his cock bobbing in front of her.
She closed her eyes, unwilling to stare at his thing any longer. “Go away, please. Please.”
In the next instant, the noise of metal tearing away from metal sent shockwaves through her. She opened her eyes and gawked at the sky above her.
