Chapter 8: Hello to the devil.
"Please don't shoot!" She withdrew, pleading. When they realized Chloe was dead, the females she was running with started to cry.
"Fools!" He walked over to where they were and yelled at them. He and the other men seized them and brought them back to the chubby man, who gave them an outfit assignment.
"Boss! They attempted to escape. I fired a shot at one of them.
The man stood up, approached them, and gave them each a slap. Lana felt her head spin after he hit her. "Bitches!"
"Take them to Cherie, dress them up, and take them to the club." He gave an order and returned to his seat, sighing in rage.
"Yes boss!",
The other girls who chose not to go with them were taken to the changing room, where they were dragged. Their clothes became underwear. Upon learning of their actions, Cherie ordered the guys to beat them.
Lana has hated her life ever since. She has never known such cruelty since she was born. Not even her awful uncle had physically abused her in that way when she tried to run away from him.
"The next time, you would think twice about trying to get away. And this is just the beginning. We have tamed girls who have tried to run away, just like you just did." She laughed, still smoking cigarettes.
They were violently forced to change into the provided underwear. Looking in the mirror, Lana saw a tiny cut on her lip. Her body was covered in bruises.
She felt exposed after putting on the underwear. The only parts covered were her intimate areas and nipples. It was the most skin she had ever shown. After being dragged to the club, they were forced to stand on a strip pole. Almost elderly men, middle-aged, were among the men Lana saw.
Their lust-filled gazes were fixed on her. A man threw money at her before coming close to her and trying to touch her. With his mouth pressed against hers, he spoke breathlessly and asked, "How much for a night, gorgeous?"
She could smell the strong odor of alcohol on his breath. He smiled and gave her waist a sensual stroke. That was the only reason she gave him a hard slap.
He grabbed her hair and dragged her to himself without saying anything. Lana exerted all of her strength in their struggle, but he was stronger than her. She was so young to be experiencing such a harsh reality that tears filled her eyes.
"Please let me go. Leave me alone." He planted his lips on her shoulders as she begged, still struggling with him. She screamed because that infuriated her so much. When the other men in the club saw this, they started to laugh.
A few minutes later, people started to make room for one another to pass. "Leave that bitch!" yelled a man brandishing a gun. The drunken man, who was on the verge of exploiting her, left her.
"Come with me!" He gave the order. Lana dashed towards the man and followed him to a small adjourned room. She discovered other girls who were also present.
....
As usual, Axel was in his office, gazing intently at the weekly income figures. He was not really thrilled. His personal assistant, who was seated across from him, stared at him expressionlessly as she waited for a reaction.
"It was recommended that more estates on Downtown Avenue be purchased. There were more investors available to join us in our investment." He went on. Axel, maintaining his normal cold expression, merely nodded his head.
"What about getting a new manager?" After an extended period of quiet, Axel eventually asked.
"Boss, three people applied for the job, and I have interviewed them according to your request."
"About that boss, I interviewed the three candidates that applied for the job. I am able to present their reports to you." After opening her laptop and giving him a report book, Vera clicked on the video files.
He went through the reports and watched the video recordings. He let out a sigh and turned his back on the chair.
"Send him a note. Vera, let him know he got the job. Additionally, remember to provide him with the company's policies and procedures. precisely how you'd explained the terms and conditions to him." He spoke, and she grinned and nodded. "I will do that, boss."
The only occasions the majority of Axel's staff see him are when he enters the business premises or when there's a conference. He always steers clear of unneeded attention. Despite it, he was a powerful individual. He was highly known to the public at large. and while some thought him mysterious, others thought his introverted nature was charming.
Many women had thrown themselves at him. particularly in the case of an event. They try to figure out how to catch his attention. He was not only extremely beautiful, but also quite wealthy. His features were sharp, and his dark eyes had the ability to both intimidate and stare into your soul.
He had no fear of anyone. He was admired by most people, and they all wanted to meet him. Girls, on the other hand, would prefer that someone notice them in return. He was among the youngest billionaires and CEOs that were known.
He had constructed a great deal of estates, parks, hotels, restaurants, and other facilities.
Due to his strength in riches, this drew a lot of individuals to associate with him.
However, nobody is aware that Axel Morales has a skeleton in his closet. In private, he was involved in illicit businesses that dealt in drugs, weapons, and human trafficking. But he hides it with his regular business dealings, so nobody finds out.
He was a really cruel and heartless individual. He rarely feels sorry for others and always follows his own desires. His yes is a yes, and his no is a no.
He would revert to manipulating you if someone attempted to exert influence over him. and finally,
Avoid doing anything that may make him dislike you; you'll come to regret it later in life. He received a phone call following his meeting with Vera.
"What is it, Paulo?" In his office, his deep, husky voice resounded.
"What did they do? All right, leave the bastards there. make sure they receive punishment before I arrive." He yelled, slamming his phone against his desk and turning it off.
"Fuck!" he said, then contacted his driver and asked him to drop him off at the club. Axel was recognized a few minutes later, and everyone moved aside to let him pass. Most of them admired him as he passed away, but they were still afraid of him knowing who he was. Hearing him approach, Paulo hurriedly left the room.
"Boss, its so nice to have you here." Paulo bowed slightly and spoke. Despite the fact that he was older than Axel, he was really afraid of him. He's not even done talking yet, when Axel punched him, sending it flying to the floor.
"I would have blasted your fucking head off if we had never met years ago. How could you let those girls escape behind your back?" He was cool, yet there was danger in his tone.
"I'm sorry, boss; I left them to Cherie. The girls ran away when she left them to change, and it was she who reported this. I have to discipline Cherie for it, and the girls are getting their punishments for that." Wiping blood from his fractured nose, he spoke.
"Bring them to me now!" he said, sending the guys running out of the room. They returned a little while later, still dragging the girls. Lana was one of the five of them.
"We shot one dead boss; we heard she was the mastermind." Axel nodded while maintaining a neutral expression on his face, as Paulo said.
He gestured for Paulo to approach before whispering something in his ear. The girls were forced to lower their faces to the ground while sitting on their knees.
"So, you guys tried escaping, huh? You imagine yourself running to the dragon's lair instead of the lion's. Although you have learned your lesson, things will not end here. When circumstances like this arise in your next life, never consider leaving and never hesitate to speak your mind." After saying that, Paulo grabbed a gun off the desk. The girls started to cry and shake their heads as soon as they realized this.
Lana's eyes were wide upon seeing the gun. Paulo grabbed the rifle and handed it to a glaring Axel.
"And where do you suppose you were running to?" Axel's cold voice could be heard across the room; it was deep, lifeless, and smooth. It was deadly, but attractive. He turned to look at her with the other girls. They were all scared, and he walked towards them with a gun in his hands.
He murmured, "Say hello to the devil." Placing a gun in the first girl's mouth, she pulled the trigger.
