1 - Ruthless Punishment

“D-Don Sylvan….” The man whispered with so much fear in his voice.

My lips parted when I saw Sylvan’s reddening face as he glared at us.

Fear crept in my skin when I saw the rage and disgust in his face when he looked at me. I swallowed, not being able to know what to do. Suddenly, I lost my ability to produce any words from my mouth as my eyes remained on his hard feature. His steps were heavy and full of authority as he walked towards the man.

“I-I am sorry-“

Before the man could even finish his sentence, Sylvan pulled his gun from his pocket and shot the man in the head. I gasped as my eyes widened when I saw the blood spurting out from the man’s head. I was beyond horrified as I watched the scene infront of me.

Mindlessly, I took a step back slowly, scared that I would catch Sylvan’s attention. I was trembling miserably as I watched the man fell like a paper on the cold dirty floor.

Tears fell down my cheeks as I screamed loudly when I saw the man’s eyes. They were opened and they were looking at me!

When I glanced at Sylvan, my body shook excessively when I saw how his face contorted with rage. He was fuming mad. I am sure that he would kill me.

Because of that thought, I ran towards the door, trying to escape. I do not care if I was fully naked! I just want to get away from that merciless and cruel man! The image of the man he shot flashed in my head again, making me want to vomit. I was scared, disgusted, and trembling! I just want to leave this place now!

I sobbed loudly when a pair of strong arms suddenly wrapped around my waist, stopping me to move. I squirmed in his tight hold as I begged him to release me.

“No! Please! I am sorry! No!” I yelled in between my loud sobs. I thought that I was ready to die. I have been telling him to kill me but now that I am aware that he will really do it, I am beyond afraid. I am not ready to die. I do not want to die. My son... He's too young... 

“Shh…” His voice was shockingly soft as he whispered in my ear. “Calm down. Shh…” he whisper softly like he was trying to sooth me.

I just noticed that I was quivering in his arms so much. I was trembling like a leaf being swept away by a strong wind.

His lips touched my neck, kissing the soft spot very gently. “Please, calm down. I will not hurt you…”

But I was too scared to believe him. No! He will kill me! I am sure he will! He is evil!

“No! Don’t touch me! Get away from me! Don’t hurt me!” I begged him as I continued trying to free myself from him but he was too strong. His arms were wrapped around me like a steel.

“Calm the fucking down!” he growled in my ear.

I sobbed as I shut my eyes tightly. I wanted to fight him but I was too afraid to do it knowing that he has a gun.

He killed the man without any hesitation. He shot his head. He is a fucking devil!

“Please. Do not kill me. I-I am sorry.” I cried out.

I was too tired to move. I stopped squirming in his arms but I was still shaking. Tears were unstoppable.

“I will not,” he uttered in a calm voice before he slowly let go of me.

Because of too much exhaustion, I fell on the cold floor. My naked body was free for him to stare at but I did not care at all.

I heard him sighed deeply before he knelt down beside me. He unbuttoned his white dress shirt. I did not move when he grabbed both of my arms and put his top in my body.

“Y-You killed him,” I whispered in a trembling voice. I thought that I already know how evil he was but after witnessing what he did, I realized that I am clueless about what he can do.

Why would he kill his man just because he saw us kissing? He did not have to! What pushed him to do that? Why is he so angry?

“Yes, I did,” he answered in a nonchalant tone as he buttoned the longsleeves.

“Why? He did not do anything.” I wanted to scream at him but I was too tired to do it. I was crying so loud and it drained my energy.

“You were fucking kissing,” he hissed as his eyes turned bloodshot as he glared at me with so much wrath.

“We were just kissing!”

“You were fucking naked infront of him! What the fuck were you thinking, huh?! Were you planning to fuck?!” I saw something in his eyes but it was so hard to decipher what that is.

“And what is it to you if we wanted to fuck?!”

His jaw clenched repeatedly, as though I said the most disgusting thing in the world.

“You do not get to fuck any of my men, you fucking whore,” he growled.

“Why the hell do you even care?! I was horny! I wanted to fuck him! It was unnecessary to kill him!”

I still do not get it! We were just kissing but he killed the man like we were doing the most illegal thing he has ever seen!

“The fuck did you say?!” He forcefully grabbed my face. I gasped at the pain. His fingers were almost digging in my cheeks.

“Let go of me!” I managed to yell despite of the pain I felt in his hold.

“You wanted to fuck him, huh? Is that it?” His eyes were so red that I thought he was going to burry a bullet in my head but instead, he stood up.

I shut my eyes when I saw him shot the dead man repeatedly.

More than twenty times. He shot him. Nonstop.

When he stopped, he glanced at me. His eyes were void with any emotion. He did not say anything and walked away, leaving me all alone.

It took me awhile before I realized that a bloody dead body is here in this room with me. My eyes widened in horror when I accidentally glanced at the man lifeless on the floor.

I stood up and with a shaking legs, I ran towards the metal doors but the guards have locked it already just when I was few meters away.

 I cried as I slammed my hands on the door.

“Let me out! Please! I do not want to stay here! Please! Just remove the body!” I begged. I am not even sure if there is someone outside but I kept on making noise.

“Please! Help me! I am scared! Get this body out of this room!” 

I helplessly rested my head on the metal doors as tears never stops falling in my cheek. The image of the dead body kept on flashing in my head like a movie. The blood, lots of blood was gushing out from his body.

I sat near the door and continued slamming my hands on it. I stood up when I heard something from outside. They are trying to open the door!

I waited until three men went inside. The two men walked over to the dead body while the one remained standing in the corner, probably keeping an eye on me.

I just stood there, unmoving, as I watched the men put the body inside a big plastic bag. I trembled in horror as I watched how nonchalant they were as they did it. It was as if they do not even care if they were holding a dead body.

Why would I be even shocked? These men are not normal. They are evil. They are murderer. They love blood and death. It is basically their life. It is how they live. Blood is the color of their lives. Death is their best friend. And they are sick just like their fucking boss.

They cleaned the floor, removing the blood. They quietly left the room when they were finished with their work.

I stood there for a couple of minutes before I sighed. I need to clean myself.

I feel so dirty and… evil. Witnessing such a hideous crime will make anyone tremble. I feel like I am also a killer as I did not do anything, as I just remained watching while Sylvan shot the man multiple times without mercy. Without even blinking.

Forcing myself to move, I walked towards the small bathroom and cleaned myself.

It took my more than an hour inside the bathroom. I scrubbed every inch of my body as I cried silently. When will this end? Who will help me?

Will I ever get out of here alive? Or Sylvan will kill me eventually? Of course. He will. Killing is so easy for him. He will not even think twice of killing me.

I do not have any clothes to wear so I was left with no choice but to get out of the bathroom fully naked. I do not even care at all.

I sat in the corner, pushing my knees on my chest as I hugged my legs. I was so scared. I was not scared like this earlier but with what I have seen, I feel like the dead body is still here. I feel like someone is watching me.

I shut my eyes tightly as I buried my face on my knees, sniffing. I want to leave this place.

Startled, I looked at the doors when it opened. Sylvan entered the room wearing only a black sweatpants.

Two men were standing beside him. His brows knitted together when he saw me and immediately, he glanced at the two men.

“Get out of here,” he hissed at them and without hesitation, they left us alone inside the room.

I swallowed as I watched him walked over to the chair. He sat there and rested his back like he was enjoying watching me sitting here like a helpless kid, naked.

I looked away.

“Why the fuck are you naked again?”

“I don’t have clothes,” I hissed, still not looking at him.

I heard him let out a deep sigh. “I gave you my fucking dress shirt awhile ago. Where is it? Why aren’t you wearing it?”

“I do not want to wear it.”

“And why?” His tone was filled with some amusement.

I didn’t reply as I kept my gaze on the floor.

“You are trying to seduce my men again, huh? By parading your goddamn body?” Now, he sounded so sarcastic.

In that point, I snapped my head in his direction.

“The dress shirt is dirty! And I am more comfortable being naked than wearing your clothes!” I hissed at him.

“You do know that I will not hesitate to kill anyone who you will try to fuck, don’t you?” He growled.

“I am not trying to seduce anyone!” I yelled. I know now that my plan was stupid. I will never do that again. I know that next time, he will do worse than what he did awhile ago. And I do not think I will be able to take it if ever. I would probably rather die than witness him kill another human.

He stood up and walked towards me. I was catching my breath as I watched the distance between us slowly getting small as he took steps.

He knelt down infront of me as I remained glaring at him.

“If I catch you whoring around again, I will fuck you hard infront of my men. That’s what you want, right? You want a dick inside you? You want to be fucked?”
