From what you are reporting, I believe the threads are striped inside the lug nut. Unfortunately, this is not a good thing and will require the work of a mechanic to fix as it will involve cutting the lug and lug nut close to the wheel, possibly some drilling to get what remains of the lug out of the way of the wheel, then replacing the lug.

Good Luck!
