Chapter 339
LUKE
“What the fuck did you say?” I paced feeling hot suddenly, what in the devil’s name was Nick thinking. “Fuck!” I cursed under my breathe. “He told us not to open on peak at the door no matter what we hear, boss, he might be doing the same thing he did in the island.” Bloody hell!
I cut the call and just stood there not knowing what to do. It didn’t matter if I rushed there, it might already be too late. What was he thinking? “What’s wrong, you look stressed.” Marcus asking handing me a drink.
I downed it in one go, the burning sensation in my throat felt good, just what I needed. “Nick is at the warehouse.” He looked confused, “Okay, so?” I knew he didn’t get it. “The warehouse Marcus, where I am keeping Xander.”
“Shit!” He cursed under his breath running his hand through his hair. “We should get there now.” yes well, it might just be a waste going there. “We will have to go together, Ethan is already freaked out by Nick, this will just send him over the edge.
I thought he was going to wait for me to take care of things, why did he go there by himself. Did he thinking I was taking too long with it? “I know, let’s go. I will call Olivia on the way. But what exactly is he doing, did they tell you?”
I didn’t know if telling Marcus was a good idea, but then again, what was the point of hiding it when he was going to see it when we got there. “The same thing he did on the island.” Marcus frowned. He didn’t get it.
“What he did at the island was inhumane, it was like he was slaughtering a pig only to find out after his done that he was skinning the man alive. Now, Xander has no skin, what do you think he is doing to him now?”
Marcus sighed, on the road I was driving like a mad man, I didn’t know if it was to protect Xander or Nick. He shouldn’t go that far; he was going to regret it if he did. Marcus didn’t say another word until we stopped at the warehouse, right next to Nick’s car.
Just we got out, Nick appeared, hands and arms bloody as if he were bathing in blood. My heart raced in my chest so fast that I could hear it in my ears. “Jesus fucking Christ! What the hell have you done?” Marcus yelled the moment he saw him.
He was mortified. “Hello Marcus, Luke.” He stood in front of us, toolbox in hand and looking satisfied. “What have you done, Nick?” I asked with my voice calm, but that was just it, my voice was calm but on the inside a storm was brewing.
I was angry that he did what I thought he did, him giving in to the dark side, it was not an easy thing to deal with and that was why I told him to get rid of the skin and I was going to get rid of the owner.
“I killed the bastard.” He answered calmly as if he was not affected at all. I wondered if he was putting on an act or what. “How did you even kill him? you look like you were slaughtering a pig!” Marcus paced.
