Eight years ago...

Enzo lazily looked at the big house in front of him. His parents kept forcing him to event held by one of their relatives. A boring event, Enzo had guessed.

His mother, who saw Enzo continue to frown, could only laugh softly. She secretly touched her husband's hand, signaling that the man should see their son, who looked annoyed in the back seat.

"There's plenty of time to practice there, Enzo. This is a rare event held by your mother's family. There's something we want to take care of there."

Enzo seemed uninterested in hearing his father's words. What could be considered fun about killing someone who clearly couldn't fight him? He wasn't in the mood to kill anyone. He still had to attend some of his tutoring schedules. Giving up his time to attend his uncle's event seemed useless in Enzo's eyes.

"But I pity my niece, Honey. During my visit there, I have never seen that child even once in my entire life. The spy I kept in his house reported that the child had been locked in the basement since she was young. The child doesn't know anything but has to endure torture by his father without being able to ask for help from anyone. I already knew that David was crazy since his woman committed suicide back then. But venting his madness on his child is unforgivable. Even an animal would not torture its child, right?"

Enzo listened as his mother started chatting with his father. Was his uncle a crazy person? So he was asked to take care of a crazy person now?

"Honey, are you sure the child is really in that house? The last time we visited his house, there was no sign that he was taking care of the child you mentioned in that house, right? Besides, even if the child existed, it was the result of his relationship with the woman he adored so much. Why would he waste the child by locking him in the basement, Honey? If his wife had died, shouldn't he be able to take care of the child like he took care of his wife?"

The mother looked annoyed at her husband's casual answer. Her beautiful face frowned as the woman stared at her husband.

"You're still asking whether the child exists or not?! Oh my God! The child exists and is being tortured by his biological father, Honey! The child has never been fed anything other than leftovers his entire life. He is not allowed to talk, let alone meet his father if David does not come to visit him. His legs and hands are shackled, and David beats the child every time he remembers his wife committing suicide because he was locked up all her life!"

"And what's even crazier, my spies reported that my brother did not hesitate to beat him until he passed out if the child screamed in pain. He's just a little child, Honey. I was still silent when he kidnapped a woman from who knows where to force her to be his partner. But this time, I swear I will stop him even if it means I have to fight him this time," the woman firmly stated. Enzo's father looked thoughtful before finally nodding in agreement.

"Then, I will take care of the custody issue. You don't need to be angry. I never knew a child was living in that big house. But why were you watching him in the first place? David is a cautious man, right?"

The woman smiled proudly at her husband's question. "I know that David has always liked beautiful women since that woman's death. It just so happens that I have a worker who fits David's type. Now, she has been working beside David for many years. I'm lucky that David doesn't suspect there is a spy in his group as long as my subordinates always obey him. So far, he doesn't seem to realize anything," she answered proudly.

The husband smiled. "My wife is getting smarter, hm?" he teased softly.

"Of course! I learned that from you. You better watch out too. I will destroy you if you dare to play behind my back," the wife fiercely threatened. The couple chuckled, completely unaware that the child who had previously looked bored in the car had now become interested in something.

"Cousin, huh?"

Enzo wondered who his parents were talking about. Enzo could only hope that his cousin would not be the same as the boring siblings he had met.

***

Enzo's parents' car stopped in the large yard of David's house, which was mainly occupied by beautiful women. There were only a few men in the big house. Even so, even the women were not exempt from carrying weapons as they leisurely roamed around the yard.

As soon as he got out of the car, Enzo's father immediately led his son to walk close to him. A beautiful woman approached them as Ruby got out of her car, bowing her head slightly when she knew that their master's older sister had come to visit once again.

"Welcome, everyone. Is there a serious problem that you had to come here without saying anything to Mr. David?" asked the beautiful woman who greeted them. Secretly, Enzo's eyebrows furrowed when he saw the woman's clothes. His uncle must have had a bad taste as he was giving a bunny suit to an adult woman.

"I will talk to him directly. David always wanted to meet my son. I also brought him this time. We will only talk about family matters and chat together as a family."

The woman glanced at Enzo when Enzo's mother, Ruby, had said that. The woman did not know what Ruby was planning, so she could only ask another servant to come inside to ask David first.

It didn't take long before the servant returned with an answer. The beautiful woman finally nodded as Enzo and his parents were brought into the big house filled with sexily dressed women.

Enzo frowned slightly as his feet stepped further into the house. The boy couldn't even hold back his disgust when his eyes caught the figure of his uncle who was being surrounded by the sexy women on a long sofa.

"Are you sure you have prepared everything, Honey?"

From a close distance, Enzo could hear his mother's voice whispering to his father. The man remained calm but quietly replied to his wife's whisper.

"They have infiltrated this house. Anytime you want, My Queen. And we can catch these people."

Enzo listened to his parents' conversation. His eyes were only focused on his uncle, who smiled when he saw their arrival.
