Nico and Open to Chase and anyone else
Frankly, this sucked. Nico Minoru hadn’t been in Preya long, but it had already earned itself the official badge of suckage. She missed the rest of her friends more than she could put into words and she was even starting to miss her murderous parents. That was hard to believe, which said a certain something about her and Chase’s current predicament.
They were screwed.
But Nico wasn’t about to give up and neither was Chase. At least they were both steadfast in their desire to get home. Now if only they could find a way. It pained Nico to think about Karolina, Gert, Molly, O.L., and even Alex.
Although they weren’t technically on great terms, Alex had come through with enough cash to set up Chase and Nico upon arrival. They were given a sweet beachside condo and everything felt alright. But it wasn’t. Their friends were missing and for all they knew, they were caught and placed in CYA or worse.
Nico couldn’t bear the thought, which was one of the countless reasons she and Chase ended up at some guy named Thor’s party. The gothic wiccan was standing awkwardly in a corner, quietly observing everyone else in the room. Chase had disappeared to find snacks and drinks and Nico was taking in the scene.
Slouching against the wall, she twirled the thick black chain that hung around her neck and held a pentagram charm, curling it around her index and middle finger.
