In a building far away from the city center, a strong stench and traces of blood were everywhere. Two men of different ages were now kneeling as they bowed their heads. A young man with a cold face walked up to the three men.
A golf club he was holding was now pointed at the chin of a middle-aged man so that the middle-aged man would raise his face. His face was already covered in bruises from being beaten by the young man's subordinates.
"I gave you time, but you left, and how dare you betray me, huh!" raged the young man named Lucas Abraham.
"You're just a rat, but how could you make me come here to meet a rotten rat like you, huh!" fumed Lucas as the golf club swung up, ready to crack the middle-aged man's head.
"I have a girl," said the middle-aged man quickly before the golf club actually cracked the head of the middle-aged man named Alex Antonio.
Lucas kept the golf club up, but he didn't hit Alex's head. "Yes, I have a younger sister. She's an obedient child, you must like her. Isn't your woman in a mental hospital? If you wish, take my sister as collateral for our debts, or not just collateral but take her as payment for our debts. She has not been touched by a man, because my father and I do not let her get close to any man except us. I'm sure you'd be happy to see her untouched by a man," said the 36-year-old Ken Delano Antonio as he looked at Lucas.
Lucas was now staring at the man beside him, who was none other than his trusted assistant. Daxter Geraldo, the name of Lucas' trusted assistant.
"We'll bring him to you if you'll accept my brother as payment for our debt," Ken said, making Lucas look at him, and soon he swung the golf club at Ken's arm, making Ken cry out in pain and hold his sore arm.
He threw the golf club in a random direction. "Bring the woman the old man promised and his son. I'll be waiting at the bar as usual," Lucas said as he looked at Daxter.
"Yes, sir," Daxter replied without any argument.
Lucas exited the warehouse, walking first and followed by several of his bodyguards. The other bodyguards would go with Daxter and also with Alex and his son.
Lucas was already at one of his nightclubs. He was observing the women in front of him. Just looking without any desire to pull one of the women to join him for a drink. A noise at the entrance made him avert his eyes and see several large men entering while pulling a woman who had a thin and small body.
The big men turned out to be his bodyguards, and it seemed that the small woman who had been dragged away was Alex's daughter. They were already in front of Lucas, who was still in a sitting position, leaning back on the sofa, and nicotine smoke was wafting from his mouth. The little woman was struggling to be released.
Lucas gave Daxter a look that Daxter understood the meaning of the boss's gaze. "Haisley Elanor Antonio, 18 years old, works as a cashier at a convenience store," Daxter said.
"Let go of me. I beg you," Haisley begged as she moved her restrained hand to be released.
Lucas stood up from his seat, he walked over to Haisley, who continued to rebel to be released. Lucas was already standing in front of Haisley, then he gripped Haisley's chin so firmly that Haisley froze, and now she felt pain from the strong grip on her chin by Lucas.
Lucas looked at Haisley, whose eyes were glazed over. "Please, let me go, sir. I will repay my father and brother's debts. But please give me time to pay it off," Haisley begged in a stammering voice due to the pain of being held tightly by Lucas' chin.
"Pay with what? Your salary at the convenience store can't pay your father and brother's debts. Even in your lifetime, you won't be able to pay them back," Lucas said in a very cold tone of voice, then he violently released his grip on Haisley's chin.
"Sir, I beg you... please let me repay my father and brother's debt. I don't want to be your gratification," Haisley begged, causing Lucas to glance away.
He now looked at Daxter, "Take him to the humid room!" Lucas ordered.
"Yes, sir," said Daxter, and then Daxter ordered the bodyguards to take Haisley.
"Let go of me," said Haisley, who continued to rebel and beg to be released.
Some visitors saw Haisley, who continued to be pulled and begged, but they ignored it because they didn't want to deal with Lucas. They already knew Lucas, the ruthless nightclub owner. It didn't matter if the opponent was a woman, he would treat the woman cruelly if they made Lucas angry.
Lucas got into his car first, then Haisley was put into the car. Haisley was about to get out, but the bodyguard was quicker to hold her back. "Shut up, or I'll throw your body into my pet crocodile cage!" warned Lucas in a cold tone of voice without looking at Haisley.
Haisley was instantly silent, not daring to speak at all. She was afraid that the man beside her would actually throw her body into the crocodile cage.
They had arrived at Lucas's house, as Lucas had instructed them to take Haisley to the humid room. Haisley was no longer screaming like before, she just obeyed the bodyguard who brought her. The sound of snakes hissing greeted Haisley's hearing, her body suddenly stiffened in fear at the sound of the snakes hissing.
"Where am I being taken?" asked Haisley in a panic when she saw the big snakes.
There were three large snakes with different cages. Haisley's legs felt very weak when she saw the snakes. Now Haisley was set up with her arms outstretched and handcuffed to each side. There was a metal bar behind her that was attached to each side with leather handcuffs, and the key was just like a belt. Her legs were also now bound with handcuffs of the same style as her hands, and the handcuffs were also fused to the metal wall. Haisley's body was like an X now.
The bodyguards had already left the room, leaving Haisley with three large snakes. The sound of snakes hissing disturbed her hearing and made her so scared. The sound of shoes could now be heard approaching her. Haisley begged to be let out of the room by the person who was approaching her. She was absolutely terrified of being in that room.
Lucas was wearing a long white shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows. The top two buttons of his shirt were open, revealing his broad chest, but the skin on his right breast was wrinkled like a cut. Lucas opened one of the sometimes white snakes.
"Please, please get me out of here," Haisley begged in a trembling voice, afraid to see the snake move.
Lucas didn't respond to Haisley's words, he entered the cage with the door open and pointed his hand at the snake's head. The type of snake Lucas was approaching was Python bivittatus.
