Getting Close To The Gangleader

Chapter 3

I deliver another punch at the guy. My men brought someone for me into the basement, they informed me that he is someone who delivers stuff for the gang that killed my parents.
        It's amazing how after four years of their death I haven't caught the gangs leader and killed him. I'm supposedly the "best" but I won't be satisfied with having that title if I haven't killed that man.
Since I'm not getting any answers by beating him I'm going to have to bring a little guy out. I look at one of my men that is to the side and I extend my hand out. He puts a blade on my palm and I look at the guy that's strapped down to the chair in front of me. His adam's apple bobbed up and down as I put the blade on his neck.

"Listen, if you don't tell me I'm going to cut your throat and you are going to die."

"I-I already told you...I don't know."

I put the blade on his cheek and slide it smoothly. He starts yelling as the blade penetrates his skin. When I remove the blade I grin in satisfaction at his cheek. There's a deep cut going from his cheek down to his chin, that's going to leave a scar.

"Now, I'm going to ask again. Where is your boss hiding at?"

"I already fucking told you I don't know! Someone delivers me the drugs and I pass them over to the client. I've never seen the boss."

"I don't believe you." I pull my gun out and aim it at his head.

"No! Don't shoot! I swear I'm telling the truth! Please!" I look into the guys eyes and I pull my gun out.

"Well...I still have to kill you."

      I point the gun at his head and pull the trigger. His lifeless body slumps against the chair and I smile. I know it seems a bit sinister but I'll do whatever to get to that man and to keep Gabriel safe. I could tell the guy was lying and if I let him go he could give away our location and we'd be attacked.

"Good job boss."

    I nod in his direction as I order them to take the body and burn  it. They get to work and I head out of the room. I make my way upstairs onto the first floor and go up to the second floor. I take a shower and change into a new pair of clothes since the other had blood on it.
     Afterwards I go upstairs to my office and look through some papers regarding some bills, requests from my men. I look through my list of clients to see that a certain someone is behind on their payment. I send Aaron and another one of my men a text to come to my office. A while later I hear a knock on the door.

"Come in."

"Hey boss, what'd you call us up here for?"

"Well I noticed our dear old friend Michael is behind on his payment. So I was thinking...why don't we drop by for a visit?"

"You already know what I'm here for. So why not just hand it over and we'll be on our way."

"I-I don't have it! I'll give you the money next week!"

"You said that last week Michael. Just give me what I want...or it won't end good."

"I'm begging you...don't kill me. I swear I'll pay you just give me time!"

"I already gave you enough time Michael. Or do you consider a month not to be enough time?"

"I just need a bit more."

"Well I'm tired of waiting Michael."

      I pull the gun out and as I'm about to pull the trigger I hear a voice call me from the distance. I turn my head to the side and see Zander standing there.

"Anastasia!"

"Fucking hell! Get the guy and put him in the car."

I turn to Michael and shoot him in the head. I leave him there while my men knock Zander out and get him into the car. I get in and we drive off.

One of my men has informed me that Zander woke up a while ago and now I'm making my way downstairs. We put him in a room and he's tied to a chair just like the other guy.
When I come in the room he looks up at me with surprise. My cold stare meets his and I throw a punch to his face. He groans and I punch his other cheek.

"Who do you work for?"

"What...what do you mean?"

"Just answer the fucking question!"

"I don't work for anyone!"

"Then what were you doing there at that time? It was pretty late and I don't think you live around there?"

"Why would you think that?"

"Your sister goes to a private school and you don't seem the type to live around there. Now answer me, who's your boss?"

"Boss? What are you talking about?" I looked into his hazel eyes and saw he was utterly confused.

"Guys can you leave us alone. I need to talk to him."

They cleared the room so only him and I were in there. I looked at his face to see his cheek bruising and his eyebrow is bleeding.

"What the fuck Anastasia! What's going on?!"

"I'll explain everything but you have to promise not to say anything. If you do I'll kill you like the other guy and I don't care who you are...I will kill you."

     I turn around and go out the door. I go upstairs and stop in my tracks when Gabriel call me over.

"Ana can you come here?"

"Yeah...what's up?"

"Can you make me something, I'm hungry."

      I nod and start getting the ingredients out to make a Nutella sandwich. I give him one and make myself one. I put put pieces of banana or strawberry in them to make them even yummier. Gabriel gladly takes it and starts munching on it. I sit next to him and start conversation with him.

"How's school been going?"

"Good. We're learning about multiplying one digit numbers."

"That's good. So tell me...are there any pretty girls in your class?"

"Yeah. Zander's sister is pretty. We are really good friends and she is really cool."

"Yeah she seems like a really nice girl."

"She is. Can she come over one day?"

"I don't know Gabriel...but I can take you guys out sometime."

"Yeah and you can hang out with Zander while I'm having fun with Lizabelle."

      I nod and we finish eating our sandwiches. When Gabriel finishes he kisses me on the cheek before going up to his room again. I clean our mess before making another two sandwiches and go to the bathroom to get a first aid kit. I take the kit and the sandwiches downstairs along with a water bottle. I open the door to the room he's in and place the stuff on a table. I cut the rope around his wrists and ankles with a knife I have in my pocket. He looks at me with anger as I lean against the wall.

"Look, I'm sorry okay. I just thought you were working for someone and were spying on me, I couldn't risk it so I brought you here. I admit I made a mistake."

"Alright, I forgive you. But who exactly are you? I mean if you suspect someone is spying on you you must be important or you're hiding something. What are you hiding? And why do people call you boss?"

"Hey Ana- Oh sorry. When you're done I need to ask you something." Aaron says as he comes into the room but before he goes out Zander calls out to him.

"Hey! Can you tell me who she is?" Aaron looks at me for approval and I nod.

"Well Zander...this girl right here is the leader of the most powerful gang of the country. The divergent gang."

Just to let you guys know I called the gang 'The divergent gang' because divergent means different. Their leader is a girl which is different from the others so...you get the point. Also a picture of the house is at the beginning of the chapter.
