“What the hell…!”
Instead of an explanation, she was nearly knocked back on her rear with a gush of wind so strong it took Ivan’s shout to gather her senses. There was distinct sense of urgency in his voice, and she couldn’t ignore it. Shoving her hands in her pockets, Zoya reached for her wallet and took a few steps back from her date trying to shake away the ringing in her ears.
Around them, most people ran. Again, she looked at the two men in front of her and her fingers hesitated over the screen. As she dialed, she wasn’t quite sure what to tell them. All she knew was that the man that had once been making his way towards them looked incensed, and that for some reason, the look in his eyes drove a chill down her spine.
Her call was finally answered.
Taking a step off to the side, so as to get a better look at the man that had Ivan on edge, she noticed Sarkozy had pulled out his gun. As she spoke to the officer on the other end of the line, Zoya still didn’t understand why Ivan was behaving in this manner. All she could see was an angry man… and then there was that strange wind that came from nowhere…
Realization hit her like a thunderbolt.
“You need to hurry!”
She finished the sentence and ended the call, shoving her wallet back in her pocket. Suddenly fear was a very real thing. She remembered Ayden’s words that night by the river and her heart began to beat faster. Suddenly, she saw Ivan with different eyes. She saw the stranger differently as well, and it frightened her.
