Viella's POV
What felt like years finally came to a stop.
The car engine went silent, and I heard the faint sound of a door opening.
"Bring that potion box from the trunk," Alina's voice ordered. Her heels clicked against the gravel as she walked away.
Potion box??
My eyes darted around the dark space-oh great, there was a box right beside me. Probably the one she meant.
...Trunk.
Oh, fuuuck.
Before I could even breathe, the lock clicked.
I froze.
Then-light.
The trunk lifted open, and I found myself staring up at some random guy who definitely didn't sign up to find a woman hiding inside his boss's trunk.
His eyes widened, mouth opening to say something-
Too late.
I jabbed my hand at his neck, twisting the way I'd seen in some martial arts YouTube video.
Thud.
He went down like a sack of potatoes.
I blinked.
Holy crap.
Did I just... knock him out?
I stared at my hands.
