Capítulo 18: ASHES: 17
Jake walked into the main office building in a state of fury. 'How dare they exploit my brother'? He thought angrily. He entered an elevator and furiously pressed Lucas' floor number. 'He's mine to exploit and I don't plan on sharing' he thought.
The elevator opened and he almost ran out towards Lucas' office. Not bothering to knock, he rushed in. He found 'Lucas' in his seat surrounded by papers. The two secretaries looked up shocked. They had thought Jake wouldn't come to the office and continued their usual lazy routine.
" I see that the company has two very capable CEOs and a secretary who can't keep up with all the hard work they're doing," he said, his voice dripping in anger and sarcasm. The men flinched visibly. This wasn't good. Jake stepped closer and asked," Am I wrong"? He glared at them. Dan, scared, answered, " We wanted to do it but he insisted that he could do it all on his own so..." he stopped when he saw the look on Jake's face. It was rage, murderous rage. He grabbed Dan by the shirt and in a voice so low only he could hear said," I'm the only one on this earth allowed to bully and exploit my toy no one else if you get that nod," Dan nodded and swallowed hard, this wasn't the Jake he knew.
"Good now make sure you never forget this because I will gladly skin you alive if you dare mess up my toy", Jake concluded and threw the man down. Mark looked at his friend and said," We're sorry sir we'll do our jobs right now please forgive us." He bowed low and did not move. Jake looked at the bowing man in utter disdain. He was disgusted, this two were pests, no, parasites leeching off his fun and he hated that.
'Lucas' watched the whole thing all while pretending to be busy. It was all according to plan. 'So that's how he sees his brother, a toy' he thought amused.
His anger unsated, Jake grabbed Mark's hair and slammed his face on is desk. Leaning into his ear he whispered," He belongs to me only never forget that", his voice barely hiding his rage. Suddenly he straightened up, walked towards 'Lucas' and said," Why don't we go out for drinks I've got something important to share with you," he said happily, his anger, gone?
A slight movement from Dan prompted Jake to look at him with sheer hatred. The anger was still there, just hidden. As much as he enjoyed watching them being humbled, 'Lucas' didn't like the idea of being alone with Jake. Why? He didn't know. All he knew was that his whole body tensed up and refused to relax even as they walked out of the door, heading to the local bar.
Before leaving, Jake ordered the secretaries to get everything done before they came back. Dan and Mark looked at him in disbelief. " You should have done your job before it piled up," he said curtly staring coldly at them. They left.
The moment the door clicked shut, Mark stood up and began to rub his face," That prick bro-con," he hissed as he rubbed his left jawline. " We agreed not to use excessive force but he slammed my face on the freaking table.." he continued but was interrupted by Dan. " I told you to specify but you said it'd be okay so no complaints", he said looking at Mark pitifully.
"Why does he do this? I mean I do get paid for it but still... why set up a farcical play in front of a brother you've hypnotized beyond comprehension..." Dan continued as he poured himself a glass of whisky. Mark yanked the drink, downed it in one go and said," Who knows why now go and bring two paper shredders, its time to get to work" , he grinned and went over to 'Lucas' desk, overflowing with paperwork. Mark looked at it all and, for whatever reason he had, he pushed everything to the ground. He had a manic grin on his face.
The cameras had recorded everything. All twelve of them
