TAKEN BY THE DARK

My heart was thumping loudly in my chest, to say I was scared would have been an understatement.


I took in my surroundings once more. I was currently seated at the counter of a shady bar, it was practically empty, besides me and the bartender there were just two other men sitting at the far end. The atmosphere was strangely quiet; Definitely unusual for a bar.


I jumped up when I heard my phone ring, my agitation getting the best of me. I glanced down at the number on the screen before taking a deep breath and picking up.


"I'm here just like you asked." I whispered into the phone. I could hear the nervousness lacing my voice.


"Rick will be here any minute now." Dominic's stony voice answered from the other end.


Just as he had spoken these words I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around and came face to face with a burly looking man.


"I'm Rick." He said, casually looking around but I didn't miss the dangerous glint in his eyes.
