Iris POV:
Tick. Tick. Tick.
I can hear the clock ticking sound, the cold air coming from the opened windows touching my skin.
I stood up from the chair and looked outside. The spring was coming to an end.
I locked the windows and flopped on my bed.
The restaurant was under construction, so they gave me some days off but the worst part was they didn't give me my salary yet.
I have to find another job, again.
I sighed and rolled over.
Last time Jeremy helped me to find a good job at the restaurant but I can't ask him every time.
And about Ace he…
THUD. THUD.
I sat up, scared. I heard loud noises coming from outside the room.
I gulped and felt my mouth dry suddenly. Something bad is going to happen, isn't it…
I walked towards the door and opened it, anxiously.
Yelling sounds were echoing from the ground floor.
I started to walk forward and found myself at the end of the stairs.
My hands were sweaty. I took deep breaths calming me.
When I reached the hall I saw many guards and the guys gathered in the front yard.
Liam and Hudson were looking so angry.
Here you are, you fucking bitch," one of the guards said standing beside me, startling me.
S-S-orry," I said, puzzled.
Suddenly he grabbed my arm painfully hard.
I winced at the pain and tried to release my hand from his grasp.
Please, it's hurting," I begged him to leave me.
But he didn't, instead, he dragged me toward the garden, forcefully.
He threw me on the grass and it hurt so freaking much.
I sniffed and wiped the tears which were blurring my vision.
Boss, she was standing in the hall hearing eavesdropping on the conversation," the guard said, looking at me disgusted.
I stood up and looked at Hudson for help. But he was looking at me emotionlessly, even Liam.
I am sorry, but what is happening I-I don't know anything," I said, trembling.
I was the only girl surrounded by armed men. My hands were shaking in fear.
It's yours or not," Liam said, showing me a pen holder gifted by my brother for Ace.
I shook my head and looked at him frowning.
I whimpered loudly when I felt a hand gripping my hair tightly from behind.
Boss, let's just kill her instead of interrogating her because of her this chaos is created and our men were killed mercilessly," the guard said, tightening his hold on my hair.
I dig my fingers in his hand. It felt like he was going to rip my hair apart from my head.
Please, leave me," I whispered, tears rolling down my cheeks helplessly.
Hudson and Liam were looking at me disgusted.
Ace will deal with her. Basement," Liam said.
But sir," a guard said but stopped when Hudson glared at him.
Hudson motioned his hand to take me away from here.
The guard started to drag me from my hair to the basement.
I started to hit the guard but it was nothing. He was so strong in comparison to me.
After 1 painful minute, I was thrown into a cell.
He locked it and started to walk away.
NO! NO! PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME HERE PLEASE!!," I screamed but it was no use.
The room was so dark only light came from outside.
I gulped and tried to unlock the cell but it was no use.
I screamed my lungs out one last time and fell to my knees.
My whole body was shaking vigorously. I tried to calm my breathing.
It had been half an hour but no one came inside.
The room is wet, smelly, and stinky.
I felt my body getting numb from all the screaming and crying.
Now, I can only stare into the darkness. The room was cold like cold.
I kept my knees to my chest and wrapped my hands around me trying to keep me warm.
The last time I was in a room like this, Ace beat me with a belt-shaped thin rope and it hurt so much.
I didn't even break any rules this time so why am I here?
Is something wrong with the pen holder and they were also saying I created chaos but what did I do…
God, please help me…
Ace POV:
Fucking nitwits.
They dare to destroy my branch and think they will get away that easily.
I washed my hands and face which were covered in blood and took off my raincoat.
Good gracious, my dress doesn't have any blood marks.
Boss, what should we do with the bodies," Ivan asked me.
Their hands were slashed out but they all were alive.
Prepare a lye tube," I said, smirking.
But, boss can't we just kill them," Ivan said.
I just looked at him coldly.
Well, they should have thought before trying to hack into my system, leaking the tender details, stealing the weapons, and fucking thought of touching Hudson," I said, clenching my jaw.
Ivan nodded and left. But he looks hesitant.
There must be a mole in the house and whoever it is I will kill them with pleasure.
No one dares to touch my friends instead of me.
*Gore*
Three moles were hanging straight and the other two were hanging upside down. All five of them were whimpering and moaning in pain.
I sat in the center of the room, a cigar stayed on my lip.
I smirked and told Ivan to drop the first three hanging moles down to their ankles.
"NO! NO! NO! AHHH!!!!!"
Screams echoed in the room, pleasuring my ears, blessing my eyes with glorious sight, a rush of adrenaline went through my body, feeling enthusiastic.
I motioned my hands to Ivan and he pressed the buttons.
They stopped their screams when their ankles came out of the lye tube.
It looks magnificent. Burnt, looking disgusting, their bones were showing slightly.
Hmm… looks like I should have waited a little more.
Now, drop the other two," I said, enthusiastically clapping my hands together.
Ace, you're making a mistake," one of the moles whispered.
Now, there are speaking, punks.
I stood in front of him and blew my smoke on his slashed face.
What," I said, apathetically.
Your house will soon be your grave," the mole said, laughing and spitting blood.
I hummed and laughed with him loudly.
He stopped and looked at me confused.
I pray your words will come true," I said and walked toward the operator.
I just drop their head in the lye tube.
Their legs were shaking more like their whole body was shaking.
The other three were staring at them afraid, scared.
Now, I am satisfied. I felt Ivan looking at me.
It's disgusting, how can you even look at it without turning away and blinking your eyes," Ivan said, suddenly.
If you grow up looking at this type of shit then it won't be disgusting," I said, turning around and looking at Ivan straight into his eyes.
I leaned down and whispered to him.
More like it will start to pleasure your demons inside you," I whispered, smirking.
I patted his shoulder and dropped all of them inside the lye tube.
They were shouting and frantically attempting to escape because the acid was consuming them.
The tube stops shaking after a few minutes, suggesting that the person is dead and that their corpse will disintegrate in a few weeks.
I left the room, satisfied.
Is the flight ready," I said, looking at my Rolex watch.
Yes, king," one of the guards said.
I stopped abruptly and looked at them.
I looked around to see if someone else was present there.
You bastard, what did I tell you about calling me 'king'," I said, coldly.
You're our king (Είσαι ο βασιλιάς μας) and No one is else here," the guard said, emotionlessly.
I am but not here (Είμαι, αλλά όχι εδώ)," I said and walked towards my car.
It's been years, I guess. When was the last time I spoke Greek?
I have to visit the village too.
I am planning to take my Mini there, then introduce her to them.
That sounds… perfect.
Iris is not picking up her call and it is frustrating me.
It's been 2 days. I came to Italy without even seeing her because of the chaos that I have to fix.
But now everything is fine.
She did leave some texts like "Are you fine" or "Did you eat" or "Take care" or "Don't drink too much and eat on time".
Such a sweet girl.
I called her again but it said it was unreachable, again.
What happened," Ivan asked, snapping me out of my daze.
I shook my head and got out of the car.
When I entered the plane, I was met by a hot, beautiful woman.
I took off my coat and sat on one of the seats, sighing and closing my eyes for some minutes.
Would you like something to drink, Sir," one of the air hostesses asked, smiling.
Red wine," I said, observing her.
Her hair was in a neat blond bun, pale skin, blue eyes, and red lips, 5 '8, and her dress perfectly hugged her hourglass shape.
What's your name," I said, emotionlessly.
Arya," she said, smiling wide.
I took the wine from her and she left not before, blushing.
Arya's skin was not glowing, her eyes were not like my Mini instead it was filled with lust, greed, jealousy, and selfishness.
Arya doesn't have 6 moles on her face, her cheeks or eyes don't light up when she smiles, and she doesn't have cute chubby cheeks.
I threw the glass away, angrily.
I felt weird, my heart was beating fast, and my fist was clenching and unclenching.
"Sir, are you okay?" the air hostess asked, trembling in fear.
I gave her a foul look and entered the room.
I ripped off the buttons of my shirt and threw it somewhere in the small room.
I flopped into the bed, frustratingly. I took out my phone from my pants pocket and dialed to Iris, again.
Fucking hell, What is she doing that she can't even pick up my fucking calls?
I heard a knock on the door suddenly, I got up and opened the door, annoyed.
Ti (What )," I said.
Δεν σου αρέσει η φιλοξενία εδώ, Βασιλιά (You don't like the hospitality here, King)," the guards asked, worriedly.
I rubbed my temple and released a shaky breath.
Σκέφτεστε ίσως τη μαγευτική ομορφιά (Are you perhaps, thinking about the Captivating beauty)," He said, emotionlessly.
I cocked my brow. They were referring to my Mini, but he appeared to be serious.
It's not like they smile or anything.
I closed the door and sat on my bed.
I lay on my bed, closed my eyes, and promptly fell into a deep sleep.
+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+
"Do you like it?" Iris asked, hopefully after giving me a massage.
I hummed looking at the ceiling.
I like your ears," Iris said, pushing herself close to me.
I frowned and rolled over her, my body enveloping her small body and warming her even more.
"That's a strange compliment," I murmured, smelling her like a hound and burrowing my face deeply onto her neck.
"Oh, but your ears make it look more radiant when you smile," she responded emotionlessly.
My heart started to beat once again.
We just lay there while I hummed.
I occasionally trace her delicate skin with my frigid hands. It made her shudder.
I grinned and kissed her on the neck.
I sensed her fingers on my hair and she caressed it cautiously.
It felt good, she felt good. She always felt good.
+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+
As I heard someone knocking at the front door, I cracked open my eyes.
"Come in," I spoke serenely.
I stood up and entered the restroom.
I splashed water on my face and observed myself in the mirror.
My ears…
I smiled, but when I looked in the mirror, I didn't notice a difference in my ears.
What the fuck! She is messing with my head.
I splattered more water on my face and came outside grumpily.
Good evening, Sir," Arya greeted me with a charming smile.
But, her lips are not like Min...
Shut up, Ace!.. Gosh.
I'm not sure what arose, but I grabbed her by the neck and kissed her aggressively.
My thoughts were all focused on Mini, her eyes, her smile, and her body.
When I pulled away from Arya's lips, she started kissing my neck, her hands roaming throughout my body.
She sat on her knees and unzipped my pants.
"Sir," I heard her seductively beckoning to me.
But my eyes were fixed forward, and I was dazed. I wasn't hard, and I wasn't even turned on.
"Out," I said, buttoning my pants and wearing a shirt from my luggage.
I noticed her gazing at me, sniffing and weeping and she left.
I took out my phone and called her one more time.
I tossed the phone against the bed, infuriated.
I took out my laptop and began working, taking my mind off the thoughts of her.
Once I reach there she will not like the consequence this time…
