When Love Takes A Sinister Turn

4- Dior Morreti

I made my way towards the men sitting on the sofa . They all stood up as soon as I came in their view. The surrounding so thick with tension , I could slice right through it.

The Thornton brothers nodded their heads at me as they sat back , their assistant stood besides them . Romeo and Mitsuo sat adjacent to them .

I sat opposite to them and with a flick of my finger , a suitcase was presented in front of me.

I opened it and bundles of cash came in my view . I turned the suitcase around and showed it to them.

"The shipment was successful , the next unit will be manufactured and delivered to your deck in a few days. ," Arden's deep voice sliced through the thick air. And I nodded .

"It's all your's , the other half is already been paid ." I said referring to the cash. Their assistant took the suitcase from the table. And checked his I Pad and nodded his head.

"So , would you like to dance with me." Raven's velvet voice decipitated the tension and I chuckled . From both the brothers I was close to Raven ,probably because he talked more and I listened to him talk. He was playful and bright compared to his brother who preferred silence over chaos .

" No Raven , I don't want to dance." I said.

"But you were dancing with that guy." He retorted. A smug look on his annoyingly handsome face.

Their was no denying in it they were handsome both Raven and Arden. But their personalities were like two poles apart. Raven had a playful nature , he had a gift of making the person in front of him comfortable whereas his twin brother was totally opposite. Arden had a dark aura , he was the type of person you would think ten times before messing with.

"He was interesting." I replied . He leaned back in his seat at my response . A surprised look on his face . Because it was unlikely of me to speak of someone like this. Even I was surprised by my revelation .

" Am I not." But before I could retort.

"You cannot win an argument against him." Arden said. Sighing.

"But you love me." Raven said turning to face his brother. Who totally betrayed him. "And you are supposed to take my side , you fucker."He said annoyed .

"Stop fighting, you both are annoying ." Romeo said . Rolling his eyes.

"You both are grown ass people , stop acting like small kids ." Mitsuo said his dripping with sass.

"What's crawled up his ass." Raven asked turning towards me.

"He didn't get a cunt , that's why." Romeo retorted. And that was the last bit before Mitsuo lost it and threw the pillow from the couch at Romeo .

And soon they all started arguing and fighting.

They were so fucking childish. Even there secretory was amused . Of course who would say that this are the men who just for fun can kill people.

But their conversation came to a halt as soon as a waitress came in with bottle of whiskey and ice . She was beautiful , her hairs were a sleek bob cut and her skin was a pale white , she was the most innocent looking woman I had ever met so far . She was wearing the uniform which was given to all the waiters and waitresses ,a black shirt and black pants . And she looked absolutely gorgeous in it.

So gorgeous that every men in this room were staring at her . Well even I was staring.

"What's your name , Pretty." Raven asked. Completely mesmerised by the beauty.

"Kasia Evans." She replied . Her voice cold and husky compared to her innocent face. And I wondered what had happened for her to be that cold.

I turned towards her and nodded at her .

She turned around and left the place . Completely unaware of the effect she had left behind.

Everyone went back to talking about business and soon the night was over.

—————————————————————————

It was past midnight .

I was alone. As I made my way towards the mansion. I had sent Romeo and Mitsuo to the warehouse earlier for checking a shipment . It was a shipment worth millions for, and I had a gut feeling that something bad was going to happen. And my gut feeling was never wrong.

Because as soon as I saw in my rear view a car came in my notice. It was late and the road was deserted. So to check I took a right turn, it did too. Then a left, it followed behind.

A chuckle left my lips as I took a long drag from my cigar and threw it out of the window.

How the hell can a person be so fucking obvious. I didn't know. But I was damn sure the person following me was one of them.

I noted the number plate . And right away knew it was fake one. The windows were tinted , so it was not possible to see who was driving.

So I started driving faster , taking turns here and there. The car followed behind . And soon we were out of the city , near a remote area. Where probably no one would come.

I halted my car in the middle of the road. Checked my gun and exited the car. I leaned against the back of the car.

The black car behind came to a stop right in front of me and to my surprise the most unexpected person came out.

Casia Evans. The waitress from earlier.

"Isn't it a surprise ." I said . Sarcasm evident . All I wanted was to go home and sleep. But people are fucking idiots.

She didn't even blink an eye as she casually pulled out her gun and pointed it at me. She looked as if she was new to all this. Inexperienced.

I stood there utterly bored by the game. This was nothing new . I was used to it. Getting a gun pointed at my head. I wanted something new now.

"You're hot you know that." I said. As I checked her out from head to toe. She really was. She had already changed her waitress outfit and now she was wearing black jean shorts and black shirt.

Hot.

"I am here to kill you and you are complimenting me." She said. Perplexed by my reaction .

"Of course you are here to kill me, otherwise why would you hold a gun to my head." I replied . She laughed , her voice ringing through the silence.

I could literally hear crickets in the background.

"You think this is funny ." She said. Her demeanour shaking. Afraid.

"Of course not I am serious, go ahead and kill me." I retorted and that made her falter.

"Aren't you afraid ?" She asked quizzically . Now that made me laugh.

"No love, I am not afraid . So go ahead and kill me. Stop wasting your time as well as mine."

She stared at me with a perplexed expression , probably finding me strange. Everyone found me strange , that was nothing new.

"Go ahead , kill me." I encouraged.

And just before she could pull the trigger. Mitsuo came from behind her and knocked her out.

Well that was interesting .
