Maddox's POV
I drive into the woods, stop the car for a while and get down. I do some stretching and my ass feels numb right now. I stand before the car and watch the sun rise. I am still in my tux, numb ass, hungry and even sleepy. I turn around and the two girls are still sleeping.
Well, if they were werewolf kids at the party I could have easily tore them into pieces. But I couldn't do anything except punch the s**t out of that boy and bring the two girls with me. I have absolutely no idea how humans would deal in situations like this.
I don't know for how long I have been standing there just staring at the sunrise, but when I turn to my left I see Ophelia standing by my side.
"Where are we?" She asks and groans.
"I don't know" I whisper and she looks at me, holding her head. Because obviously her head must be killing her right now.
"Wait.. who are you? Why are we here?" She finally comes to her senses and I find proper words to say so she doesn't freak out. But she is already clenching her fist ready to throw a punch at me.
"I was.. I was walking into the party for some directions. I was lost but I found some guy trying to take advantage of your friend" I say and she decides to stand at one place and listen to what I want to say next.
"So I brought her out, and you passed out too. I brought both of you from there. Did not know where to go so.. you and your friend are safe, that I can assure" I tell her with my hands up in the air like surrender.
She looks around, looks at Zelda and nods.
"The only reason I trust you is because you had all night, and still did nothing terrifying" she says standing still.
I smile and nod at her.
"And she's not my friend" Ophelia says and I look at her in confusion, "she is my sister"
I nod in understanding. I had no idea. They were so close to each other talking about dating and going to parties together in the same college so I thought they must be friends.
Ophelia and I stand and watch the sun rise. And I am actually waiting for Zelda to wake up.
"So you were here alone all night?" Ophelia asks me.
"No. No actually. I drove around. Stopped here a few minutes ago" I say and her eyes go wide.
"You drove all around the city with two drunk girls in your car? All night??" She asks and I nod.
"If any other man was in your place, he would have completely taken advantage of it. I am serious. Thank you" she says and I smile with a nod.
A few more minutes later, we hear Zelda's scream and before I know.. she was already puking. Thank God she did it outside through the window and not in my car.
The girl is interesting and all, but if anything happened to my car I would not see her again. I mean every word of it. Cross my heart.
"Oh wow! Good morning Zelda" Ophelia says as if this is nothing new and inappropriate.
"Oh don't worry. Her alcohol tolerance is way too low. She probably had one shot of vodka yesterday" Ophelia laughs.
I just stare at her and Zelda. One shot of vodka? And she was passed out? She is puking now? One shot of vodka?
What serious s**t is happening right now!
"Can you.. can you take her out?" I ask Ophelia and she laughs before she goes to Zelda, carefully opens the door and pulls her out.
Zelda proceeds to puke again and this time a little far. I grab the tissue box from the dashboard and wipe the little droplets of her vomit on my car door.
And I know you can't see me right now, but I am trying my best to not lash out! My car is my prized possession. I never even let Ian drive this. Now a girl is in here, puking while she is in my car.
"So you regret saving her?" Ajax asks me and I stand there throwing the tissue away.
I turn around to look at both the sisters. I don't understand a thing. I give Ophelia a few tissues and she helps Zelda with it.
I sit on the hood of my car and wait for them to finish that so I can drop them off at their place. And I sit there, watching Zelda slowly regain her consciousness. She is looking around but with squinted eyes. She is confused, she is blocking her eyes from the sun.
I know she just puked in my precious car, I cannot help but still notice her every move. If someone saw her, they might say she is not really a Goddess. But to me, she looks like one. I don't know why. Maybe that is what I am trying to figure out.
Zelda sits down on the ground and I smile at her. Now she is slowly waking up and she is right here, sitting and squinting her eyes at everything.
I still have a hard time believing one vodka shot did this.
Ophelia awkwardly stands beside Zelda and I am currently too amused to notice anything else. She finally realizes we are somewhere she's never been before and quickly stands up.
"Why are we here?" Zelda asks Ophelia and turns around to look at me.
"Who are you?" She asks me and I finally get down the car.
"I am Maddox. Nice to meet you too" I say and she looks at me confused.
"Well, Troy tried to force himself on you. This got us out of there" Ophelia says and I look at her in confusion.
Troy? How did she know his name??
"And I just saw this video going viral in all our college groups" Ophelia says again and shows a video playing on a phone. I hear my voice and I quickly walk towards them.
I stand beside Ophelia to see what that is about. So apparently someone filmed the video of me beating what's his name I forgot again... And it's pathetic how humans are letting me beat one of them, and instead of fighting me they filmed a video? Pathetic as heck!
I see myself taking Zelda in my arms and holding Ophelia's hand as I walk out. The video ends there and I look at Zelda.
"Thank you" she whispers and I nod.
"Where do you want me to drop you?" I ask her and she looks at her sister.
They both eventually get in the car and put in the gps on their phone so I can drive according to the directions. Thank Heavens they did, because I don't know much about this place.
Except for the college because I often drop Ian nowadays. It was a good one hour drive considering we were in the woods. Zelda is in the backseat now. I don't know why but I secretly wish she was by my side right now.
"Drive for 100 meters and your destination will be on your left" the automated voice says and I do exactly that.
"Okay. Here" Ophelia says and wakes Zelda up from her seat.
Once Zelda is up, Ophelia walks into her house in urgency but Zelda is trying to look presentable. Probably appealing to her parents in some way.
"Thanks for the help," Zelda says and gets out of the car.
She trips and falls down after taking just two steps. I am about to get down the car but she just stands up, dusts off her dress and walks again. Soon she went in too.
And I sit there in my car, smiling. I thought she was fierce but I still cannot believe what one vodka shot did to her.
She is more intriguing than any war strategy I ever came across.
