Wild Nights With My Brother’s Ex-Best Friend novel Chapter 189

ROMAN

I meet Mason outside. He takes one look at me and asks, Are you okay? What happened?”

I feel way too emotional to speak right now and this neves happens to me. I know anger. I know resentment. I know impatience. Need. Hunger. Even fear.

But what I experienced in there…this never happened to me before. It’s a feeling I can’t describe, and it was strong enough to make me forget that I’m rushing to find out what happened to Nikki and where she is.

“Yeah, I’m fine.”

“Everything okay?”

“Yeah. Just the same. Come on. We have to get going.”

“I’ve been trying to call her this whole time,” Mason claims as he follows me to where my car is parked. “She didn’t pick up.”

“The same happened with me.”

“Fuck. Where do you think she could’ve gone?”

I rest my arm on the roof of my car once I reach it and run a hand down my face roughly. I haven’t shaved and my face feels scratchy. It makes me think about her. She loves it when my face is scratchy like this. “I don’t know. I feelLike I’m losing my mind here, Mason.”

“Do you think something bad happened to her? Where else would she be?”

His question makes my heart drop. I stare at his face and suddenly, my mind fills with all sorts of horrible scenarios. What if something happened to her? What if that person who’s been following us finally got to her?

Hell, what am I going to do?

“Do you think we should call the police?”

“They’ll never do anything in time,” I say impatiently as l pinch the bridge of my nose. “Angus Calieri died. Have you heard?”

“What? No.”

“Maybe she’s there with the family. I don’t know.”

“Do you know, where they live?”

I nod, and we get going. He takes his car and I take mine, and he’s driving right behind me. It’s really hard for me not to speed right now. I need to find answers right this minute. Please, Nikki. Please be there.

I can’t bear the thought of something bad happening to her.

Despite my worry and the fact that I’m speeding on busy roads, I don’t make it to the city center as early as I’d like.All in all, it takes us a damned hour to reach Angus Calieri’s residence. There are a bunch of reporters and news vans in front. It’s a mess, really.

They’d never let us in.

But I spot Laura coming out of the gates in dark sunglasses, and I watch as she heads toward her car. The * reporters follow her and snap photos, but she ignores them all.

Laura would know if Nikki was in there, and she’d be able to tell me.

This is what I tell myself as I drive after her. Hell, I never kept her card, so I don’t remember her number. I don’t have it on my phone either.

We follow her for twenty minutes. Mason calls me to ask me what’s going on, and I tell him to just keep following me.

Laura will give me the answers I need.

Or by God, she’ll pay for it.
