Alex opened his eyes to a blurry environment. His head dangled, rising and falling as he tried to steady his vision. Gradually, his head steadied and the scene before him became clear. His eyes were still irritated so several spots dotted his vision but the overall scene was plain.He saw two figures before him, both of which he immediately recognised. One he had seen on TVs, billboards and other big screens and adverts all over Miami. Philanthropist, entrepreneur and owner of several of Miami's leading companies.The other person was much easier to recognise. He would recognise her in any city, putting on any dress, even if she changed her skin tone, he would know her with one look. He scoffed the moment he saw her.He felt a fastening on his wrists and ankles and pulled at them repratedly but none of them budged. He directed his gaze to his four limbs and found them chained apart, each limb ninety degrees away from the other. He was chained in a crucifix fashion, his hands to an ele
"Aaaaaargh"Alex screamed in agony as the drill pierced into his wrist. The spinning rod drilled mercilessly into his flesh, through his bones, veins and muscles, and out of the other end. It sent a shocking vibration into his nervous system. His neurons sent agitating nerve impulses to his brain, causing his body to jerk violently as he screamed.Dylan maintained a blank expression as he continued drilling holes all over Alex's body. He took breaks at intervals, letting him bleed out profusely from the new holes. When the blood stopped flowing, he began drilling again, either at a new spot close to the former or at a different critical spot when there was no more space on the former region.Alex began another round of screams. He wriggled his body, writhing in pain as Dylan drilled into and through his biceps. His four limbs felt paralysed. He couldn't feel his fingers or toes and received no feedback from their adjoining joints."Several studies indicate that the level of calmness y
"Yes, Dylan. Yes. I will be your consigliere" Chelsea smiled at Dylan. She walked to him and threw the knife to the ground. She wrapped her hands around his neck and looked into his eyes meaningfully. "I will be anything you want me to be, Pope" she giggled softly, her tone having an indication of sinisterness. His arms encircled her hip and he drew her closer to him. He gazed at her admiringly and smiled."Let's rule the world, raven" he smirked and closed his eye, exhaling in delight. ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤Skylands HotelIn a section specially reserved for Dylan, Chelsea sat with him and three other men. She recognised one to be the mayor she had met previously in the same spot. The other two were rather aged men, obviously older than Dylan. One had a weathered appearance, giving off the he vibes of a seasoned mafioso. He wasn't clad in a suit typical of Dylan's men. He simply wore an all black themed attire consisting of a leather jacket and a pair of black leather trousers. The other dres
Chelsea looked up at Bishop as they rode in the SUV. Dylan had informed all of them of an operation downtown. One of their business rivals was having a meeting with one of their biggest clients. The Intel had revealed that this rival was offering lesser prices for his drugs than that of 7 Daggers. It was Bishop's job to handle but Chelsea offered to go with him. Dylan first refused but the insisted, promising that she would be okay. Deep down, she wanted to prove her worth to both Bishop and the Vicar. They had doubts about her and she was set to prove them wrong. She needed the trust and support of everyone on the team if she was going to pull off her scheme. Even now, the way Bishop stared at her from behind his extremely dark shades was kind of creepy. Even though she couldn't see his eyes, she imagined him observing her intently, searching for a flaw or wrong move that would serve to discredit her.She smiled and lifted her chin. She stole a few glances at him but he never turne
"Come over this way and sit, Bishop. We were just discussing business" Stone smiled, beckoning on Bishop to sit with them. "What's the bitch doing in here?" Thom Redd asked, looking at Chelsea. "Say the word bitch again and your name won't be the only thing that's red" Bishop replied threateningly, his tone seething with hate."Manners, please" Stone turned to Thom sternly. Then he turned to Bishop. "Please do tell us who the pretty lady is. It's not everyday a woman sits with men to discuss such matters" he said, eyeing Chelsea with a smile."It is the Pope's orders that she sits in on this business meeting. You have a problem with that?" Bishop replied."No way, not at all. I felt like I should have been briefed earlier on that we would be having such a gracious face join us today" Stone said smilingly. "Please sit with us" he gestured for the duo to sit.Chelsea smiled within herself, seeing as Stone was already pleased by her appearance. She had taken an extra attention to her a
Chelsea walked into the mansion beside Bishop. She walked elegantly with an air of pride and confidence, a smirk curved across her lips. Dylan sat majestically, watching her as she entered. He immediately smiled as he saw her look of confidence. They got to him and Bishop related the outcome of the business 'meeting'. "Stone has learnt his lesson. He will not be taking or even think of considering any deals outside those involving us or our supplies" he said plainly. "Beautiful. Just how was this lesson taught?" Dylan smiled, leaning backwards in his chair as his ears were piqued for hearing some graphic details. Bishop turned to Chelsea. "Raven put a bullet in his left eye. She said it was to remind him to look away when tempted with such deals" he said.Dylan smirked in satisfaction. He eyed Chelsea approvingly, his gaze telling that he was pleased with her. "And the new supplier?" Dylan turned to Bishop. Bishop sighed quietly. "He was one of our own, previously. Thom Redd" h
Chelsea gently took off her dress and admired her reflection in the dressing mirror. She caressed her outline passionately, smiling at her figure. She placed her right leg on the table below the dressing mirror and pulled out the pistol from the strap on her thigh. She also removed the strap and gently placed it together with the firearm in a drawer below the dressing mirror.After satisfying her eyes with her physique and appearance and reassuring herself of her perfect bodily and facial beauty, she walked elegantly to her bed and laid down gently. The only pieces of 'clothing' on her were her brassiere and panties. She closed her eyes and reminisced on the day's events. She was definitely certain that she had caught Dylan's eye. After proving her penal disposition, he had all his doubts cleared. She smiled as she felt herself drawing closer and closer to her goal. She heard a knock on her door and immediately stood up. She waltzed to the door, humming a pop tune. She opened the do
Chelsea opened her eyes and turned to Dylan on the bed. He was fast asleep. She had lost track of time but she remembered she had fallen asleep too after the sex. She also remembered the last thing she heard from him. He had answered her question in the way she expected. She had played her emotional card and it had worked. Originally, she feared it would have little to no success, given his hardened domineering demeanor she had grown so accustomed to. But he always surprised her. Either with an unexpected romantic gesture or a totally different attitude entirely. She watched him sleep, his subconscious appearance still striking her as hot and seductive. She motioned to sit up but felt his heavy hand curved around her back to her waist, gripping her protectively. She smiled and rested her head on his chest. "Are you awake already?" she heard him ask, his voice a little bit drowsy. "Yes" she replied, looking up at him. He smiled, his eyes still closed and breathed relaxedly, tighte
