236 Kidnapping Kimberly

1

Kimberly shuddered when she heard the clap of thunder. Her wailing ceased and she slowly looked at the sunny sky above her head. It was clear, so where was the... rain? 1

She immediately shot up from the field at the first drop of rain. Before she could take a step from her spot, a raging blast of water downed on her. She inhaled deeply as she stood rooted to her spot. She hates rain, it reminds her of that night her parents were killed. The agonizing memories, the excruciating pain that followed as she watched her mother getting brutally raped while she waved her hand for Kim to leave with her sisters before the beasts noticed them.

Her father's tongue was pulled out and his hands and legs were cut as they forced him to watch how his middle-aged wife was ravaged by stinky bulky men. 1

Now, she was told that such a patient and great man wasn't her father. She needed a place to think but certainly not this place, and under this rain.

She subconsciously balled her fist as she made a run for the gate. She needed to be far away from these people. Alpha Chaos and Damien.

As she ran out of the quarters through the gate, she didn't notice the two men that were waiting for

her.

Just before she could step further from the gate, she was grabbed from the back by one of them and the other quickly covered her mouth as they carried her away.

Inside the house, Maverick was standing by the window, watching the rain as it made a pitter patter sound against the surface of the floor to ceiling window.

"Boss, Elder Five has made a move, Your sister has been kidnapped." Code 2 reported.

Maverick slowly dipped his hands in his trouser pockets. Without looking back, he said: "Hmm... Inform Damien."

"Yes, boss." Code 2 turned around after bowing and left.

Damien was drinking when Randy brought in Code 2. He glanced at him with dreamy eyes and asked: "Alpha Chaos sent you to mock me?" He looked drunk but his words were clear as ever. "My master said to inform you that Kimberly is with the Elders."

Damien's hand shook and his head shot up. "Repeat that," he commanded like he doubted what he just heard.

"The elders have Kimberly in their custody."

Damien shot up and took a step forward but paused and turned his side. "Which of the Elders?"

"Elder Five."

Damien took a deep breath before he took the gun he placed on the center table and walked out the

door.

After Damien left, "Hey!" Randy grabbed Code 2 by the collar of his black shirt. "What game is your master playing?!"

Code 2 twisted Randy's hand and maneuvered his way until he had Randy's hand twisted to his back within seconds. "Don't try that with me again." He pushed Randy forward, straightened his shirt out, and walked away.

Randy also ironed out his shirt before he traced his Master's steps to Elder Five's lair.

On getting to the gate of the white abode, Randy's gun was taken from him and he was thoroughly checked for hidden weapons. His knives and all were confiscated before they allowed him in.

Inside the house, The masked Young man was sitting beside the fireplace as he glanced at the fire while Damien was standing beside the red couch with a gun in hand. 3

"Aren't you tired of standing? Have a seat."

"Where is she?" Damien asked in all seriousness.

"Why do you care? Aren't you tired of her yet? I want to have a taste too." He teased.

Damien took a calm breath and asked: "What do you want?"

The elder turned to look at him. With those black eyes that looked exactly like Damian's, he shook his head, "Nothing. Just her will do." 2

"You can't have her."

"Oh? Tell me why?"

"I thought the Elders are not allowed to get involved in the members' matters? Why are you suddenly interested in my matters? Does the council know this?"

The Elder paused for a few moments and suddenly laughed. "What I do, the council doesn't care. You know why? Because I'm the Holy Son." His voice sounded cheerful.

Damien froze for a moment before he suddenly burst out laughing. "Hahahahaha... I thought delusion is only applicable to weak humans. Alpha Chaos and his son are the Holy sons. Who gave you such false hope, Elder Five? Hahahaha..."

Elder Five stiffened. It was clear those words pierced his heart. He narrowed his eyes at Damien and enunciated slowly. "Not when he and his son are no longer in the picture."

Damien curled his lips. He wasn't surprised to hear that. It was normal for anyone to kill off a threat or an obstacle that was blocking their way to the top. He had also done that a lot of times in the past. "Congratulations on your success. Go ahead and kill him. Do you need more-bullets?" Sarcasm could be heard in his tone as he sneered at the man in front of him.

"No, I don't have to do it myself. I'll let you carry out the job. In return, you'll have your woman." "Nice deal. That sounds like what I'd say if we switched places. But the difference is that, in return, I'll kill one of you to enjoy the other person's suffering" Damien chuckled.

"Nice one. You're indeed a heartless one..."

"Not as heartless as the organization and families." He smiled. "No further discussion, Elder. Bring out my woman. This joke is too expensive, I won't tolerate it in the future." "There's no future, Damien. The future is now. Either you do as I say, or she dies."

At that moment, the large TV on the wall lit up and chained Kimberly was seen crying and struggling against the chains that bound her above a boiling chemical in a large pool. Damien shot to his feet and the next thing... "Bang!"
