Chapter 8

The warehouse was not what people imagined. It was not scattered. not abandoned. It was organized. Clean on the outside, dangerous on the inside.

It had rooms with beds, lights, bathrooms.And the other side — is where they do their dirty work. You could smell blood before you even entered.

Car One stopped first.

Dr. Cole quickly opened thedoor.

"Come, Isabella."

Isabella stepped out, her leg shaking. not as if her leg was broken, it was out of fear.

He led her to Adrain room. It had a bed, a chair, wardrobe, and a small table with water.

She sat on the edge of the bed and hugged her knees. visible sweat all over her face.

she screamed, loud enough to tell you how scared she was. "Dying is better than this! First you people kidnapped me, now people are trying to kill me inside the hospital! What is going on? What did I do?

"calm down. This kind of emotion is not good for your health, Breathe."

"Don't tell me to calm down!" tears falling from her eyes. “ I just want to go back home Cole”

Outside, she could hear Car Two packing.

Charles, Jude and Jade dragged the three bad guys into the dirty room.

The smell of old blood was already in the air.

They tied each of them to a metal chair. Tight. Ropes around their wrists, and their ankles.

Their lips were already swollen. Blood on their shirts. Their heads bent down.

They were waiting. A few minutes later the iron door opened.

Adrian walked in. Slow, and heavy footsteps echoing.

Black shirt, black pants, sleeves rolled up to show his veiny forearms. His eyes were dead. Cold. No emotion.

He walked into the bloody room and inhaled DEEP, the smell of fresh blood. The smell of their fear made him satisfied. A slow, wicked smile spread on his lip.

He liked it. He loved it. This is what calms him. Adrian didn't speak at first. He just walked around them, circling them like a wolf.

"JANZA CLANG right? The same gang that keeps watching my every step”

His voice was audible enough to send a shiver down their spines.

"You think your boss can save you?"

He grabbed the first man's hair and yanked his head backward violently. The man screamed.

"LOOK AT ME WHEN I AM TALKING TO YOU!"

The man was shaking.

Adrian's face was inches from his. He inhaled deeply. “ your blood smells nice “

He walked back to his chair. Now facing three of them just little inches gap

"Why does he want her?”

The first man spat blood on the floor and smirked, " why don't you ask our boss your……

Hot slap landed on her cheek making his face move to the other side Adrian didn’t allow him finish that statement

Now he turns to the left guy “ how about you? You still don’t know why he wants her?”

" I only answer to my boss and you’re not him”

Adrian picked up a metal rod from the table and hit his knee.

CRACK!

"AAAHHHHHHHH!!" The man screamed so loud Isabella heard it in the other room.

Isabella froze. Her eyes widened as if she had seen a ghost.

"What was that? she whispered, shaking violently. "Oh my God, Cole , what is he doing to them?" She stood up about to run to the door

Cole blocked her. "Don't go there!

Back in the lobby, Andrian was breathing slowly, enjoying the scream.

He walked to the third man.

"You. Same question. Why does he want Isabella?"

The third man was crying, sweat and blood mixing. "We... We were just told to bring the girl.

He cut him off.

“ still not answering my question “

The man kept his mouth shut. Scared to say anything.

Adrian laughed. A cold, evil laugh.

"I see. So you guys are not scared of anything right? let's play a game then."

He brought out his gun. Shining black.

He opened it, put 2 bullets in. Spun it slowly.

"Three chairs. 2 bullets. One of you will live. Two will die today. Are you ready?”

He pressed the gun to the first man's forehead — the one with the broken knee.

“ same question, why does your boss want her”

He was quiet or maybe he thought Adrian wouldn’t dare pull the trigger

But he underestimated him

He smiled before pulling the trigger. CLICK.

Empty.

The man collapsed, hyperventilating.

Adrian moved to the second man, pressed the gun to his dick.

The man’s breath shaking, “ My boss will come for you”

“Hmmm” he pull the trigger

BANG!

One bullet. The man down. Just silence.

“ and I will be waiting for your him “

In the other room, Isabella covered her ears after hearing the gun shot and screamed louder than them.

"STOP IT! STOP IT! ALL OF YOU ARE MONSTERS!"

Andrian lowered the gun slowly. His face was no longer smiling. It was pure wickedness, pure murder.

The other two men started screaming, crying, shaking their chairs.

“You’re next” he put the gun back on his head

“Please, please, I will tell you”

“Then start talking”

“ he said you took what belongs to him years back” the man started shaking, sweating and breathing heavily

“ just that” Adrian asked while lowering his gun

He looked at Charles.

"Break his other leg."

Charles didn't hesitate. CRACK!

The scream that followed made the lights flicker.

With that he stood in the middle of the remaining two, his shirt soaked with their blood. He was calm now.

He looked at the men. Then he smiled. That wicked, slow smile.

" I’m going to send your boss a gift”

Then he looked at them again, “ Wait, did any of you touch her?”

The first man remains quiet

the other guy replies while shaking violently. "I... I didn't touch her I only entered the room, then your men blocked me”

"You," Adrian said quietly. "You entered her room."

“ but I didn’t touch her.

"But You breathed her air. You dared to breathe near her."

Adrian looked at Charles. “ Hold him”

Charles walked close to the man and held the man's head tight.

This time Adrian didn't use the gun . He picked up a small, sharp knife.

Isabella in the other room heard a long, terrible scream that didn't stop.

“ MY NOSE , MY NOSE, “
