Chapter 12

Ashton

"W-Why would you kill them? They did what you wanted?" I asked Luciano when I could no longer control myself, I felt a mixture of anger and fear now. I don't know where did I get the courage to speak up to him but I think it's because I'm feeling annoyed with him. He treats his people as his possession as if he owns every one of us here inside the room.

"Brave of you to stand up for them, babe. Tough luck but no, I wouldn't change my mind just because you said so." Luciano replied in a lifeless tone as if he doesn't care if someone dies.

"But boss, we did what you told us to do, I let Pang fuck me even though we're not the real culprit," Vin complains and slowly got up from the bed when he hears Luciano order Klen to kill them. Pang, on the other hand, remained silent but was nervous as well.

"As long as the culprit won't confess his sin in front of me, all of you will die," Luciano replied causing Vin and Pang to stare at each other, they are gazing at each other intently as if they are having a conversation using their eyes.

A few moments later I was shocked when Pang suddenly pulled out the gun that was stuck on Klen's waist. Klen did not expect what Pang would do and it was too late for him to stop Pang from getting his gun. When my eyes glanced at Vin, I was surprised to see him also holding a gun I didn't know where he got.

"We've been working for you for almost a decade now and this is all you have to give back? I've been your best assassin, everything you command me I do it clean and without a sweat. I do not deserve this, so if you're just going to kill me and Vin, we'd better kill you first." Pang said angrily and aim the gun in our direction. My eyes widen and I couldn't help but feel nervous even though I knew that Pang was aiming the gun on Luciano, but I was sitting on Luciano's lap so it feels like Pang was aiming the gun on me.

Luciano suddenly laughed which delivered a strange tremor in my body. What the fuck? How did he get to laugh now that his life was in danger? Only Klen was his ally in this room because Pang and Vin's companions were just quiet and it looked like they had no intention of helping Luciano, not even one of them tried to fight or snatch the gun from Pang. Klen, on the other hand, couldn't do anything since Vin was pointing the gun he was holding in Klen's direction.

"I can't believe you're doing this, Pang. If you shoot me here, do you think you can still get out of this yacht alive?" Luciano laughed in response, Pang did not budge and smiled broadly.

"It's okay, as long as you die before me," Pang said angrily and stared at Luciano.

A deafening silence envelops the room, everyone was waiting for what will happen next. A few minutes later Luciano suddenly pushed me causing me to fall on the cold floor.

"Fucker!" I cuss gritting my teeth, I felt a throbbing pain in my elbow that I used as a support to keep my face from hitting the floor. I wanted to swear at Luciano but I knew this was not the right time to do that.

Luciano got up from his chair and ambled towards Pang, not even afraid that Pang might suddenly pull the trigger. My heart was beating so fast as I hurriedly get up and backed away, I went to the corner of the room where I was standing earlier.

"That's what I like about you, Pang. You don't sanctify anyone, not even your boss." Luciano said and patted Pang's cheek lightly.

Pang just frowned at what his boss did. While Pang was still in a state of astonishment, he did not realize that Luciano had already got a hold of his gun.

"Pang--." It was too late for Vin to warn Pang what Luciano was about to do, things were going so fast, Luciano raised Pang's hand and in less than a few seconds he grabbed the gun that Pang was holding. Luciano then pushed Pang with all his might, causing him to slumped back on the bed. Luciano then aims the gun on Vin.

"The two of you might be the best assassin I have but you should not forget that I am your boss, I know all your weaknesses," Luciano said and then looked at Pang with a smug face while the gun was still pointed at Vin, "How brave of you to think that you stood a chance in killing me."

"It's too early to feel triumphant, boss." Vin suddenly said, my eyes widen when I saw that Vin was not the only one holding a gun pointed at Luciano, all of Vin and Pang's colleagues sided with them and there's only one of them who wasn't holding a gun, if memory serves me right his name is Ron, he was the man that Pang accused of moving me into the boiler room.

When I glanced at Luciano his expression still did not change, a dangerous smile was still plastered on his lips, I couldn't read what's on his mind right now. He doesn't even care that there are more or less 8 guns pointed at him and it only needs one bullet to take him down. What does he think of himself? A cat who has nine lives?

"Isn't it a little bit insulting that you considered yourself as one of the best assassins but you need help from your colleagues to take me down?" Luciano said with a mocking smile causing Vin's expression to darken in anger.

"Stop mind fucking me, boss. This is getting ridiculous, we don't have to kill each other to catch the culprit." Vin said frustrated, his colleagues nodded in agreement.

"Of course I'm open to suggestions, but I think there's no need for that," Luciano replied and lowered the gun he was holding. His people look at him confused, even Klen was wondering what he was doing.

"Don't you have anything to say, Ron?" Luciano suddenly asked after a few seconds of silence. Everyone in the room looked in Ron's direction which was now starting to sweat, we were all waiting for his answer.

A deafening silence enveloped the room.

"I-I did it, I moved him to the boiler room and fucked him, boss." Ron's voice trembled, causing my eyes to widen and my heartbeat quickened.

What the fuck did he just confess? Why does he admit to a sin he did not commit? It was Zie who brought me to the boiler room, it was Zie who fuck me until I passed out last night. It was all Zie.

I don't understand why Ron did that.

"Everyone of you out, except Ron and Klen." Luciano ordered, Vin and Pang quickly picked up their clothes that were scattered on the floor and then ran out of the room.

I walked slowly out of the room but I was not even able to get out of the room when Klen's muscular body blocked in front of me. I look at him confused as to why he is blocking my way but he just smirks at me, he is determined not to let me get out of this fucking torture room.

"You're not leaving, babe."
