LOGINAlex’s POV
“Please don’t kill me!!” I clasped my hands together and begged, tears rolling down my cheeks. My life was shit and I knew that, but I wasn’t ready to die. Not like this. “Please……I’ll do anything.” The killer paused, his head tilted to his side as if contemplating. A shiver ran down my spine as his gaze lingered on my face, before shifting to my body. I swallowed hard, wondering what could be going through his mind. “Anything, you say?” He starts, spinning the gun in his palms. I nod frantically, “Y-yes…any—” Bang! He fired another shot. I froze, my heart pounding in my chest. Soon I felt something aside from my tears trickle down my cheek. Blood. The bullet had only grazed my cheek. It was a warning, a deadly one. This man was not to be reckoned with. He took a menacing step forward, his huge frame making the apartment look smaller. He perched his feet on Mr Gerald’s stomach, crouching down to my eye level with his arm resting on his bent knee. I held my breath as his face was mere inches away from mine, and his once-empty eyes now glistened with excitement. “What could a runt like you do for me?” I didn’t know if I should answer. Nothing came to mind, and I was too scared of saying the wrong thing. “I—” “There is something you could do though.” He straightened up, his hands moving to unbuckle his belt. Nothing could have prepared me for what happened next. My eyes rounded as he pulled out his dick from his pants, and I swear I could see his smirk through his mask. I stumbled back, my gaze flickering from his length to his face. What was happening? Without warning, he grabbed my hair, pulling me to my knees. I yelped at the force of his grip, feeling his dick press against my lips, realization dawned on me like being doused with cold water. And still, I hoped it wasn’t the case. “If you want me to spare your life,” His voice was smoother now, laced with amusement and taunting mockery. “Then make me cum.” I looked up at him in disbelief, and he met my gaze. Sensing my hesitancy, he pressed the gun against my forehead, his eyes darkening. “You have five minutes.” There was no amusement in his tone, but a raw command that left no room for argument. I had no choice. I didn’t want to die. Tears clouded my vision as I opened my mouth, sticking my tongue out to lick his tip. He flinched, his grip on my hair tightening. My lips wrapped around him, unsure of what to do. He was so big, too big to fit into my mouth, but even still, I tried to take more of him, canceling any other thoughts. I swirled my tongue around his tip, making sure my teeth didn’t graze him and I took him inch by inch. My heart raced, and my fingers trembled as they wrapped around his base, making up for the place my mouth couldn’t reach. I tried not to think of how much time I had left. My eyes fluttered close, and I bobbed my head, matching the pace of my hands. He jerked when I squeezed him, putting more suction force with my mouth. “Oh?” The cold metal of the gun now caressed my cheek, a low chuckle rumbling in his chest. “Times ticking, would you make it with this pace?” I tried to go faster, but my rhythm became uneven. “Let me lend a hand.” I choked as he suddenly thrust into my mouth, his head tipped back and his eyes squeezed shut. I tried to pull back, but he held me in place, forcing me to take all of him as his hips snapped forward violently. His dick went down my throat, restricting any airflow. My lungs burned from the lack of oxygen, making me dizzy. I looked up at him helplessly, my eyes pleading. “Fuck yes.” He groaned, increasing pace. “That face….” With one more thrust, he burst into my mouth, his thick cum pooling on my tongue. I tried not to gag at the salty taste. It was warm, and my cheeks flushed with embarrassment at the thought. I expected him to pull out but he didn’t, instead, he grabbed my chin, making sure each drop wasn’t wasted. His eyes were glossed with lust, but there was something deeper, something that made goosebumps litter my skin. It was dark, and my senses screamed at me to get away. But I was trapped, stuck between the choice of life and death. “Swallow.” I did as I was told, swallowing his seed while his dick constricted against the walls of my throat. He groaned, his chest heaving slightly. “Good boy.” Finally, he pulled out, and I gasped for air, collapsing on the ground in a fit of coughs. My body trembled, my vision blurring. “What’s your name?” I heard him ask, his tone curt. I struggled to sit up, my hands moving to soothe my throat. “A-Alex…” my voice was hoarse, and it hurt to speak. The man towered over me like a predator on prey, his presence suffocating, reminding me that this was far from over. I had done as he asked, was he still going to kill me? I flinched as he reached for me, bracing myself as I squeezed my eyes shut. This was it. But Nothing happened. A few seconds passed, but they felt like years, and then I felt the faintest brush of his fingers against my bottom lip. My eyes snapped open in startled terror, a gasp escaped my lips as his face was inches away from mine. He was too close. The mask that had hidden his face now hung around his jaw, revealing a face one could only find in books. Sharp cheekbones, a chiseled jawline, and rosy lips curved into a sinister smirk. The silver rays of the moon slipped the window blinds and spread on his face, highlighting his features. “Congratulations, I won’t kill you,” he said, but I didn’t get the chance to feel relieved as his hand clawed at my neck. I winced at his strong grip, already feeling lightheaded. He leaned in, his lips ghosting over the shell of my ear. “But from this day on, your life is no longer yours.”Alex's pov “I tried to help. I was too late. I should have taken the gun sooner.” I rattled off, my words tripping over themselves in their hurry to come out. “It's alright. Come on, let him go. I'll take it from here." His voice was measured but I noticed the shift in his eyes when they started to Luca. The slight tremble in his hands as he held my shoulder. “Is he going to be okay?" I asked, my voice dropping to a scared whisper. “He will be but you need to let go of him now." Elias cajoled, gently praying my fingers one after the other from Luca's body. I hadn't realized I had been holding on so tightly. Clutching to him like life depended on it. I let him pry my hand away and reluctantly let go of Luca, gently lowering him back to the floor. All at once, the men snapped into action, surrounding us and swiftly attending to Luca. I was pulled up to my feet and led out of the room despite my feeble protests. Dragging my feet didn't help, I was practically lifted up the
Alex’s Pov There seemed to be a yawn of time between my pulling the trigger and hearing the deafening sound of the bullet exiting the nozzle. Enough time to take a step back from myself and contemplate what I was doing. I was shooting at Ryan Quinn. I was really doing it. Of course there wasn't any time between.The deafening sound of the bullet filled the room the instant I pulled the trigger. Ryan lurched forward, the force of the bullet slamming into his back pushing him to his knees. He got up and turned around slowly, his eyes blazing like burning coals. I stood frozen in place, gun still raised at him. “How dare you." His voice was quiet. Deadly. He stood straight, the only sign he'd been shot the drops of blood falling slowly to the floor behind him. I opened my mouth to speak but no sounds came out. Fear twisted my gut even further and my hand stayed rooted in place. He didn't walk towards me. Not at first. He looked at the gun in my hands uncertainly and then back
Alex's Pov Luca was going to die. Ryan would kill him. I cowered in a corner, wanting to shut my eyes but unable to look away from the carnage before me. There was a strange feeling of…dejavu? Nostalgia? Weeks ago I'd watched, cowering and crying as well, as the two men before me fought. But this was nothing like the last time. Last time Ryan had been severely outmatched. Or had he? He hadn't been putting in as much effort as he was now. Barely even half. Luca had pummeled him. Snapped an arm. Claimed me in front of him in a show of territoriality. He'd marked me as the spoils of war. But that all seemed so long ago. A lifetime ago. A lot has happened between then and now. I was no longer a thing for him to claim. I was no longer a toy for his use. I had become more to him and him to me. Maybe even then, I had started to become something more. He flew into a blind rage on Ryan because I meant something to him and that was his crooked way of showing it. To Ryan…I
Luca's Pov I was not expecting that. And neither was Ryan. He yelped in pain, raising a hand to his face while his other hand pulled the trigger in reflex. Time slowed. My movements felt sluggish, like I was moving through molasses. The bullet missed Alex's head by a hair's breath. He'd thrown his head far back enough to stay just out of range of the nozzle and Ryan was taken unaware so he'd moved his hand an inch before unconsciously firing off a shot. Alex's eyes widened as though he was just as surprised as Ryan and I at his action but he didn't pause to take it in, he ducked low and to the right. I was already moving by now, quickly overcoming my surprise. But so was Ryan. He made to grab at Alex as he bolted right but caught sight of me coming at him and swung his fist instead. I pulled the trigger. Once. And missed. Ryan ducked and came at me with his fists, gun discarded unceremoniously. He wanted a brawl? Fine. I threw my gun aside as our fists collided in a flur
Luca's Pov I drew out my knife from the gut of the man on the floor. I had thrown the last knife on me and there was no time going through the corpses in the house to retrieve my weapons. One handgun left, two bullets in the chamber. All I needed was one bullet to kill the sucker. I stormed towards the last door. Didn't bother trying to see if it was locked or not. I put all my strength behind the kick and the door flew off its hinges. I marched in, gun ready and pointed. And then I froze. Alex. He stared at me. Eyes shining with an equal mix of fear and relief. Eyes that were open in slits, puffy and rapidly turning red along with the rest of his face. He'd been hit. Someone laid a hand on him. My hand tightened around the gun as my gaze fell on the only other person in the room. Ryan fucking Quinn. He stood behind Alex, right arm wrapped around Alex's neck, left arm pointing a gun to his temple, stupid grin on his stupid face. “Well, well, well. It would seem t
Luca's Pov The smug bastard’s blue eyes stared back at me with detachment and boredom. “You don't look well, Lucas." He drawled. He took two sure footed, even steps towards me. Heavy boots thudding on the hardwood floor. I limped towards him, my lips pulled back from my teeth in a snarl. My fingers trembled with barely concealed rage and the gun shook in my hands. He kept his stare on mine, automatic rifle raised to fire point blank at my chest. But first, he'll taunt. A little cat and mouse dance. It made the kill sweeter. I knew he would do this because I probably would. Words would kill the spirit, bullets the soul. “We meet again." I said slowly, my gun still pointing at the hardwood floor. Almost non-threatening. “We've got to stop meeting under these circumstances, Luca Moon. You at my mercy.“ His mouth curved upwards in a humorless smirk. He was going to draw this out. Enjoy it. I narrowed my eyes in annoyance. “I was never at your mercy." “Having the people
