Mr. Drake’s man, Tony’s POV
“Yes, the target had been spotted,” I telegraphed to my master.
“Good, Tony. You deserve an award,” Mr. Drake’s voice sounded at the end of the call.
That damn girl. I had been searching every town just for her. It was an annoying task to search for a sex slave without a positive result. She made me abandon my sexy girlfriend. It had been months since I had set my eyes on her last. I missed my girlfriend, but on the other hand, I couldn’t disobey my master. Disobeying him meant “death.”
My name was Tony. I was Mr. Drake’s, right-hand man. Ever since Fred had betrayed him, he made me his right-hand man. I served him with all my strength, and my loyalty lay with him. Even if Mr. Drake was a cruel man, he still cared about his men. We were on a mission to find the escaped sex slave. Even if it meant forcing and kidnapping her, we never hesitated to do that. It was hard for me and my brothers to keep searching from one town to another without a trace of her. I was happy when one of my brothers I had asked to spy on in the other town got some information about her. He had found out where that dirty little slut lived.
“The target is found. We should waste no time.” We were about to bang inside her apartment when she stepped out of her house fully dressed. Everything went faster as she stepped inside her car and drove off.
“Come on, guys. Let’s go after her. We can’t miss her. Let’s follow her. It’s not going to be easy to kidnap her like this,” I told my brothers. We all went inside the car and drove after her. We kept following her.
“Shit, did she find out about us?” I muttered.
“Boss, that’s impossible. She can never find out that she has been followed,” John said. We were professionals.
I replied, “I guess I am thinking a lot.” But where do you think she’s heading to? She has been driving for an hour without a proper destination. For goodness’ sake, she is starting to irritate me.
After a few minutes, she finally stopped and parked her car in a very quiet place. It was a place where criminals could easily kill people without being spotted. We saw no sign of people.
“What is she looking for in this kind of place? Thinking of this coldly made my body chill. What’s wrong with me? Am I scared of that little slut?” She stepped down from her car before walking toward us with an evil sneer plastered on her face.
“Hey,” she knocked on the car’s glass. I rolled the glass down just to meet her gaze. That little girl I once knew looked different from before… She looked exactly like the Queen of Hell. Her aura screamed of danger. Her smile looked vicious, like a devil’s. Her whole body was dangerous. She was dangerous. “What the hell made her into this?”
“This mission is dangerous.” I got scared to death.
“Did your dog master send you here?” she asked with a sweet smile. “Are you here to kidnap me on his order?”
I refused to believe that her smile was genuine. She smiled sweetly, but it appeared to be an evil smile to me. Even her voice carried a lot of hatred toward us. She fucking abhorred us.
“Yes,” I said, gathering my strength. “We are here on Mr. Drake’s order. We are here to take you back to him. Your master needs you back.”
“My master?” she sneered. “Are you so eager to die?” she queried.
Oh no. I didn’t involve myself in anything that would claim my life. My life was too precious, and what could a little girl like her do to us grown men in groups? She was one of those bitches that talked with pride. I wouldn’t fall for her trap. She was trying to scare me.
“Let me warn you,” I began. “I don’t want to do this the hard way. I don’t want to hurt you. Just obediently surrender and go with us. I know well that your master loves you. He is going to treat you well.”
“I should be the one telling you all this,” she roared. “I am getting out of patience. I think I need to teach you guys some lessons for you to understand that you messed with the wrong girl.”
My body trembled on its own at her voice. She roared like a feral beast. Her expression revealed a killing intent reserved for serial killers like us. She looked at us like prey, and we were like ants in her gaze.
She forced open the locked door. I gasped, and I was nearly shocked to death. She unlocked the locked door with her bare hands. A human couldn’t do that. She wasn’t a human.
“You… you,” my voice twitched. “You are not a human. Tell me, who the hell are you?”
“I don’t recall ever telling you I was a human. Since you insist on taking me back to him,” she continued, “then don’t blame me for showing no mercy. I’m going to show you the stuff I’m made of.”
She gave out an animalistic roar before attacking my brother. In the blink of an eye, all of them had fallen to their death. She assassinated them all. How? When? Everything happened so fast.
“Ha!! Y… you killed them. You killed all of them,” I shattered as I began to wet myself.
“Oops. What do we have here? The great Tony has wet his body,” she mocked. I couldn’t believe I was going to see a day like this. Interesting. I struggled to free myself from her when she gripped my neck tightly. She began to choke me. She wanted to kill me.
“Please… I don’t want to die,” I started pleading with her. I was at her mercy. “Please, pardon me. I’m sorry. Please let me live.”
She laughed when she saw how terrified I was. I was scared, seeing death in front of me.
“You want to live?” she implored. “Are you that scared of a mere death? Are you, not a man? Are you, not a killer that everyone fears? I have always thought you didn’t fear death. I guess I was wrong about you. Tell me, why are you dissatisfied and begging for your life?”
“I want to live. I don’t want to die,” I cried. “It’s not my fault. I’m just following an order from him, and you know I would be killed if I didn’t follow his order. I’m sorry. Please forgive me.”
“I should forgive you,” she asked. “Okay, I will do just that.” She threw me hard on the dirty floor. I was grateful she didn’t kill me.
She bent over and asked, “Give me a good reason why you feel I should pardon you. So, tell me why I should not kill you?”
“I promise never to tell Mr. Drake where you live. I will tell him that we lost your trace,” I quickly replied. “I promise you. Please let me go.”
“No. No… I’m not pleased,” she announced.
“What? What should I do then?” I asked her.
“You are going to kidnap me for real.”
I cut her off before she could finish her words.
“No, please. I’m sorry. I can’t kidnap you. I’m not here to kidnap you again. I’m sorry, ma’am.”
“Will you allow me to finish my statement before cutting me off? As I told you, I am going to allow you to kidnap me and take me to where he was,” she said. “You just have to act cool.”
I replied, “Yes, ma’am.”
She asked me to tie both her hands together and blindfold her. I locked her in the trunk of the car before driving off.
After our long drive, we finally reached our destination. I asked one of my boys to bring her in.
“Master, I’m back,” I announced myself.
“Where is she?” Mr. Drake asked impatiently. “Where is she?”
“The guard is bringing her in,” I replied. “She’s already here, master.”
The guard threw her at Mr. Drake’s feet. He smiled when he saw her at his mercy.
“Good. Good, Tony, you have done so well. You deserve an award from me. I will be back,” he said before dragging her away.
I stood there amazed by her acting. She was screaming and begging for mercy. She was behaving just like a weak little girl. Mr. Drake was in deep fucking trouble. The girl he was thinking of torturing was a demon from hell, an evil being. I was scared, thinking he was going to ask for my brothers, but I worried too much. He had never been interested in knowing their whereabouts.
He never cared about us. I thought he did, but he proved me wrong. He deserved it if she chose to kill him. As for me, I should get out of here this instant.
