Chapter 2 An Anonymous Enemy

• (AN ANONYMOUS ENEMY)
• [City G, Don II's mansion]
• "And the girl?" The man spoke rashly to whosoever he was talking to. He stood in the middle of the small room which he called 'slaughter house'.
• In his left hand was a glass cup containing alcoholic wine while his right hand held firmly to his phone which was pressed to his right ear. It was obvious that he was on the phone with a person.
• He was a tall, frightening figure and had a cold, static expression on his face. He carried an evil aura around him and looked like a mean wolf about to pounce on a prey.
• "Were you seen by her?" He asked impatiently, revealing his tobacco stained teeth.
• "Just make sure that you guys are not seen by her and don't fail to give me updates about her." He warned with a cold tone which was vicious enough to make one flinch in fear.
• "Lucas, that is none of my business. All I want is that you and your men must keep an eagle eye on her and must not hurt her. She is a huge asset to me. That girl is the main key to what I want. Just watch her movements for now." He said with a tone of finality and hung up.
• In the slightly dark room, there were five other men in the room, dressed in black and were heavily armed with dangerous weapons.
• In front of the anonymous, tall and frightening man was a man sitting on a chair with his hands tied to his back. His feet were also tied and his eyes were covered with a blindfold. He was almost naked except for the fact that his singlet was half torn and his dirty boxers were also the same. He reeked of blood and sweat.
• The man had been mercilessly beaten and tortured. His whole body was covered in welts, bruises and blood. He was muttering some words inaudibly which sounded like he was pleading for help.
• "Don, what should we do to this guy? He has refused to confess to us. Should I just kill him?" One of the men dressed in black spoke up. He looked like he was ready to kill. In his hand was a pistol with a silencer.
• Don dropped the cup of wine in his hand on a small stool just beside him. He brought out a fat cigar from his inner pocket and lighted it. He took a long drag at the cigar. Bending towards his captive,he released the smoke in his mouth to the captive's nose. The captive choked on the smoke and coughed repeatedly as he shuddered in fear.
• "Calm down Roy, let's give the poor boy some times to think. All he needs is time isn't it?" Don replied the impatient bodyguard and burst into laughter. It was not a regular kind of laugh. It was a long laugh that was filled with terror and anger.
• He snapped his fingers twice and another guy in black walked to the captive and removed his blindfold. The captive shook in fear as he tried to free his hands and tied legs from the strong ropes with which he was tied.
• Don smirked as his fingers crushed the cigar he was holding.
• "It is of no use, Jude. You don't need to struggle. Can one struggle against death?" Don said to the captive as he smiled wickedly.
• Jude's heart went cold with terror and pleaded for his life. Beneath his right eye were several knife cuts and bruises.
• "Please Don, please forgive me. I will never repeat this mistake again. Another chance Don, another chance" He begged as he wept bitterly.
• "Jude, you have bitten more than you can chew. You know me better than anyone ever did. How dare you betray me in this manner? Macintosh is my greatest enemy and you know this.
• I sent you on a mission to spy on them and have them killed but what did you do you traitor? You revealed my plans to them and tried to run away to another country with your family thinking that I wouldn't know.
• What I am asking you is that you should confess to me the reason why you decided to betray me" Don gritted his teeth as he spoke to the helpless, young man in front of him.
• "Don, I have faithfully served you for years. I have successfully carried out dangerous missions for you. I have been loyal to you. Can you please overlook my mistake?" Jude begged with little hope even though he knew that it was useless begging Don. He would be killed. Don wasn't the type to joke with loyalty.
• Don took the cup of wine from the small stool beside him and sipped from it before pouring the rest on Jude's head.
• "How foolish!" He thundered before grinning wickedly. "How foolish of you to think that I can forgive and overlook your stupid act!
• Of course Jude, you have been faithful and loyal to me during these past years but as you know, I am not a sympathetic and kind person. You have overstepped your boundaries and you will dearly pay for it."
• He snapped his fingers again and a photo was given to him. In the photo were two children and a woman lying lifelessly in a pit with blood all over their bodies.They had been murdered.
• Don smirked and showed Jude the picture with an ominous smile.
• At that moment, Jude felt nothing but hatred, bitterness and anger towards the man he called his boss and for the first time in his life,he regretted ever knowing Don. "You sick bastard!" Jude screamed in angered and pain on seeing his wife and two children in the picture. He bit his lips hard as tears rushed down his cheeks.
• How could Don involve his family into this? It was however, too late to cry over spilled milk.
• Don frowned so deeply that forehead creased and the lines could be visibly counted. "Huh?"
• "How dare you! How could you do this to me? You are a monster" Jude screamed again and this time he struggled hard to break free from the rope but he was held down.
• He bit his lips as tears rushed down his face. "Karma will judge you someday and Miss Skylar will be the death of you" He snapped his head towards his captor and swore.
• Don's facial expression darkened as he burned with fury.
• "We shall see about that. My coldest regards to Macintosh and your beloved family" He said with a dark gaze before turning to Roy.
• "Finish him" He ordered and walked out of the slaughter house.
• The loud cries of Jude boomed in the mansion as he pleaded for help and mercy. Soon, his voice was heard no more. Jude had been murdered.
