14. Dark desires

"We understand. You may leave now." Reuel remained unfazed by Caleb's words and gestured with his wrist to leave.

Although Caleb was surprised by the two men's reactions, he didn't dwell more upon it. They would handle the matter themselves. He did his duty of informing them. Bowing slightly, he left the office and the door closed after him.

Reuel darted a glance at Azael who was already staring at him and his brother got the message immediately. 

In a blink, Azael was by the computer and his fingers flew over the keyboard as he tried to retrieve the video. He specifically targeted the time after they arrived at the club to get the lead.

Reuel picked up his drink and stood behind his brother's chair as he stared at the screen curiously. 

Azael picked up the camera that pointed towards the entrance of the club and just as Reuel entered the club, a lady collided with him.

"Rewind it from there." Reuel's eyes flashed as he saw the woman on the screen. From this angle, they couldn't see her face and they had to look at multiple camera recordings to capture her face.

Azael was on it and soon they saw Elise's beautiful face on the screen.

"Damn!" Azael felt his heart burn when he saw her dress. It barely reached her thighs, exposing her long legs to the world. The black sexy attire made her look like a minx who had come to destroy the world, their world to be precise.

Reuel felt his throat run dry and he had to take a sip of his drink to calm his burning heart. Elise looked tempting, a fucking enchantress and he couldn't move his gaze away from her even for a moment. 

"If only she were ours..." Azael sighed as he continued to find the footage since the time she entered their club.

"That dress would be ripped off her body by now," Reuel commented calmly and Azael didn't doubt him on it. His intentions were no less different from his brothers.

If Elise was theirs and she came before them wearing that dress, then the dress wouldn't last a moment longer on her body.

"Reuel, look at this." Azael had retrieved all the clips he wanted and he started playing the video one by one. 

The twins saw Elise and Kai enter the club and immediately head towards the bar. Nothing significant happened and they only engaged in small talk which the brothers couldn't make out.

But soon, they moved towards the dance floor and the moment they saw Kai's hands on her waist, the brothers felt the possessive beasts in them threatening to break free. 

"Reuel, are you feeling the same thing as I am?" Azael questioned when he noticed his brother's dark face reflected on the computer screen.

"I want to chop off his hands."

"Me too. Why do I feel so possessive even though it is the first time I'm meeting her?" Azael felt frustrated. Never had he felt so lost and not in control.

A woman they had met for the first had managed to mess with their brains without doing anything. They were lured to her like moths were to light and as time passed, their greed to have her in their life only increased.

"Continue the video." Reuel's voice was cold and dangerous. His knuckles had turned white as he gripped the glass hard. It was just close to shattering in his hand.

Azael played the video again and they lost it completely when the dance turned into something else altogether. Elise and Kai were now kissing each other and that was how it looked until they noticed something strange about their actions.

Elise's hair covered the two. So, they couldn't actually see if they were kissing or not. But her hands were easily visible and they noticed how she ran her hands on the....

"Reuel, is she..."

"I'm guessing she is."

"Interesting." Azael smirked as he watched the couple put up the act.

While Elise and Kai had managed to fool everyone in the club, they couldn't trick the twins. They had been caught and the brothers sighed in relief, the beasts in them retreated and went silent.

Azael and Reuel didn't speak a word until they saw Elise leave the club. Silence fell over them for quite some time until the younger twin turned around to face his brother.

"Reuel, what do you think she was doing?"

"I'm assuming she was trying to find a way to get inside."

"Do you think she knows what is behind that door?" 

"I'm not sure. We should ask her the next time we meet her."

Reuel commented and Azael's lips stretched into a wide smile when he realized what his brother was up to.

"Do you think she'll agree to what we want?" Azael asked after thinking for some time.

"There's no trouble in trying. What if she is the one we are looking for?" Reuel shrugged as he chucked down his drink. He couldn't brush off the image of Elise in that gorgeous dress and he knew that from on, it would be this Elise he'd dream of every night.

Azael returned to the video and started playing it again. This time, he caught onto something he had missed before. 

"Reuel, take a look at this." He called his brother to gain his attention and Reuel raised his head to look at the screen again.

"Elise and her colleague must be here for someone. They keep glancing at the entrance every few seconds." Azael pointed out and he switched to a recording from a different camera.

"I'm presuming it's him." Azael paused the video and stared at the man on the screen. "It was only after he entered the club that they started their pathetic act."

"I'm running a background check on him. Let me see why Elise wanted to see him." 

Azael's hands flew crazily on the keyboard and soon he had the information he needed.

"Interesting."

"What is it?"

"He is Boris Green. He is a businessman who rose to the top after selling drugs."

"Drugs, you say?"

"Then we should give a helping hand to Elise," Reuel suggested casually.

Azael's eyes twinkled in mischief and he got to work immediately. "Sent. I hope Elise realizes what a great assistance we have been."

"I'm going down. Are you coming?"

Azael gave his brother a confused look.

"It's time to fire a few people for their shitty job."
