章 45: chapter 45
Xavier waited outside the fairly old building in his car for either Alex or Mr Laurent to show up. He informed them about Alvaro being in his possession because it was their right as well to punish him for hurting their family and also because he wanted to let them know that he wouldn't die an easy death. They knew he would do much more to him than what they could possibly imagine and so they were not up for the idea of the girls witnessing the gore sight and they decided to tell them afterwards.
Fifteen minutes later, Alex walked inside the only decent room in the structure and greeted Xavier with a solemn face. He was bubbling with anger and anxiety. He didn't know what he would do or how he should deal with it considering it was his first time facing something like this but he was slightly assured that Xavier was there and he would take care of the matter in the best way possible.
How can one doubt a person like him after all?
In the dimly lit room with a stinking smell of rusty metal and flesh, lied a bloody man surrounded by heavily armed guards.
"Give him some water" Xavier ordered his men while walking to the sole chair in the room but he didn't sit, he just put his hands on its backrest and leaned forward.
Immediately two bulky men brought two heavy buckets of ice-water and poured it excruciatingly slowly on that battered man's face making his mind and limbs go numb from its effect.
He was losing his senses when they finally stopped and he gasped for air like a fish out of water.
"Morning" Enzo mumbled and pulled him up by the collar of his torn shirt making him stagger on his feet.
Alex stood there silently. He could sense the immediate change in the already dangerous aura of Xavier and couldn't stop the shiver that ran down his spine after seeing how things are done in his world.
"Alvaro Russo" Xavier said venomously, slowly running his finger over the edge of the knife.
Alvaro shivered hearing the coldness in his voice.
He heard his end in his voice.
He walked over to him and fisted his hair to make him meet his eyes.
"Do you know what you've done" he said rather than asking and pierced the knife near his genitals and dragged it till his knee.
Thick streaks of crimson immediately flowed out of his gash followed by screams and cries but to no avail. His pleas were falling on deaf ears.
"I- moth-er-fuck-" he gasped uncontrollably.
" I have so fucking much to do to you but unfortunately, I'm running short on time" he said and paused to look at his fear stricken wet face.
"These were the hands that slapped her hmm?" He said and screwed his nails-less fingers with the sharp, heavy tool.
Alex flinched when he screamed again but forced himself to watch everything with only one thought in his mind.
He deserves it for what he did to his sweet little sister.
"And choked her?" He continued and attached wires to his barely-there-fingers before sending waves of high voltage electric shocks throughout his body.
He repeated the process three times and stopped to let him breathe for his next rewards. His cries had died down and he was pale and blue wherever there were less bruises.
"Nuh uh you're not going to die like this" he slapped his cheek so hard a tooth flew out of his mouth and landed on the floor causing his goons to snicker in the background.
"So I suggest you give in a few names to make it quick and painless"
He barely heard Xavier with his ear ringing like crazy from the shocks and from the slap.
Seeing his unfocused gaze he gestured to his man to come forward and bring him back to his senses while he took a good look at the variety of tools available.
He handed a metal rod to his man and stood in front of Alvaro. He looked at his face and recalled how terrified his little baby is of him, his eyes, his voice and his touch.
"I want to poke your eyes out" he randomly announced causing everyone's blood to run cold at the statement.
They were used to seeing violence around them on a regular basis but they don't get to see someone's eyes gouged out everyday.
The man from before came back with the metal rod now red and flaming hot and handed it over to Xavier.
Alex watched the scene curiously, although he had an idea of what he could do with it but his heart couldn't believe someone like him would get to witness something like THAT.
Xavier spitefully walked slowly towards a shivering Alvaro who also peed his pants in sheer terror.
"Roman- I- forg- pl- please" he muttered continuously.
"That is how Ailee begged you, didn't she?" His eyes darkened even more.
Alvaro didn't say anything but crawled back to the wall behind them.
"Answer motherfucker" he hit him with the rod on his back and earned screams of agony from him. He thrashed on the floor, crying loudly but it only brought satisfaction to Xavier.
"She said her skin burns when she remembers how you touched her against her wishes and now you will feel that burning too" he said in a low voice that only him, Alex and Enzo could hear as they were near him compared to the other guards who were keeping a watch from the corner because he didn't want to disclose her situation to just anyone. She wouldn't like that and he would hate it no less.
He pressed the rod first on his lips diagonally so that it covered his cheeks too. Alvaro's screams knew no bounds, they kept flowing out and everyone knew they were audible to anyone far outside.
He kept it there for five whole minutes before pulling it back and giving it to one of the men. Alex grimaced at his appearance, he could see the flesh of his face and it was not at all pleasing.
He was glad he didn't bring his dad along.
"Hmm strip him of his clothes" he commanded and in less than a minute he was lying naked on the floor.
Alex's eyes widened at the strange order but he didn't interrupt and watched everything unfold patiently. He knew there was nothing he could do to compare to this.
Xavier picked up the metal whip with nails attached to it and hit him hard on his bare back first.
He started screaming incoherent sentences once again and grinded his teeth together to stop him from moaning.
"St-stop- I-" he wheezed out, coughing up blood.
Xavier halted his actions and raised his eyebrow expecting him to elaborate his filthy excuse.
"I- I haven't met- the boss- ahhhh" he started but stopped when he accidentally turned on his back and grazed it on the grime filled floor.
"Hurry the fuck up" Xavier said and poked his stomach with his foot.
He hissed but nodded and continued
"There's a- meeting between the boss and some dealer. It's a-"
He coughed up more blood on the floor and it caused Xavier's blood to boil.
"Spill it already motherfucker I don't have time for this" he said and his guards pulled him up from the ground.
" It's a big fucking deal so he'll come out himself arghhh- let go of my arm"
Xavier nodded and he was freed from the tight hold of the guards.
"The place will be heavily guarded because- because no one has ever seen him before. He goes by the initials B. R."
"When is this meeting you're talking about?" Enzo asked, looking at him incredulously and then exchanged looks with Xavier.
"It's not confirmed yet maybe in two weeks or next month"
"And how can you be so sure?" Xavier asked, sitting back on the chair.
"Because I was assigned a duty to be present there but for security purposes they won't disclose the location and date till the time has come" he looked at him in a little hope of getting his life spared for that piece of information.
"I- I could work for you. I'll tell you when it happens. I work closely for them" he added hesitantly because it sounded ridiculous even to him.
Xavier chuckled menacingly and stood up.
"I would've considered your offer but... ... not after what you did to Ailee" his face morphed into a stoney expression.
"I- I- believe me Romano I didn't- she- I like her- I-I really d-"
BANG
He shot his right arm.
"Did you see how much she was crying?"
BANG
Left leg.
"Did you see how hurt she was?" He said and looked at Alex for the first time ever since they entered the room. He stretched out his hand with the gun, silently asking him if he'd like to try it.
Alex paled when the attention turned to him but with a clenched jaw he accepted the gun and looked at Xavier again.
He looked at him as if he was his master and he was asking for his permission and just like that Xavier nodded encouragingly.
He stepped aside letting him stand in the center and gave a hard pat on his shoulder.
BANG
Right leg.
And now he was drawing his last breaths.
Alex released a shaky breath and handed the weapon back to him. Xavier was surprised to see how smoothly he did that as a first timer and nodded at him approvingly and crouched down in front of Alvaro.
"What was her fault, you fucker?" He fisted his hair with enough force to lift his limp body half way up. He frantically shook his head in response with his bloodshot eyes wide.
He was regretting everything he did to her. He was so blinded by his anger and defeat that he didn't realise the graveness of the consequences of his reckless actions. Now it was biting him back not only in the ass but every fucking part of his body.
"And she is mine. You should have backed away the very fucking moment you found out"
He dropped his shivering body on the ground and looked at him dead in the eye.
"But you didn't. Big fucking mistake"
"I'm sorry I -"
BANG
He finally shot him between his eyes and sighed looking at the mess. He wanted to gouge out his eyes but he also wanted him to see his face at every flick of pain as a reminder of his actions.
"Find out if he tried to contact someone during that short amount of time he was on the run for" he instructed. He knew for sure that he didn't meet up with anyone but he could've texted or called someone for backup or to share the intel he might have managed to gather on him.
Two of his guards nodded and left soon after.
"When's that idiot coming back?" He asked Enzo while walking out from there with Alex hot on his tail.
"He'll be here soon. He said he needs to buy all the things Ms Amara asked him to or she won't let him set a foot in this country"
He nodded and sat down in his car, feeling a little relieved to know he can finally plan out something instead of shooting in the dark and that he could finally take care of his little darling who needs him the most at the moment.
He called Alex in his car to join him as he was going to his house but more so because he was amused by the variety of expressions he displayed in the room.
He came and silently sat down on the passenger seat and Xavier started the car.
"Well... ...umm that was... ...something... back there" he said, clearing his throat awkwardly.
"It was. You surprised me" Xavier said with an amused expression.
Alex scratched the back of his head, embarrassed to have been complimented for such a brutal and strange reason.
"I felt like it was my duty to do something for Lily"
"Hmm"
"Don't tell my father though. I told my parents that they would not stop me from doing anything I could in this matter but I don't know how he'll react to it"
"Okay"
Alex nodded and silence enveloped them once again till his phone rang and broke it.
"Yes dad" he said and looked at Xavier who didn't even blink at him.
"Yeah I'm with him"
"Hmm it was bad"
"Okay okay jeez"
His frustration grew with every minute by the questions bombarded by his father and he ended the call.
"Would you mind talking to dad first? I mean dad wanted to know the deets. We'll not tell him everything obviously but just the-" he stopped abruptly when he realized he was rambling.
Very similar to Ailee, so he would let it slide.
"Okay"
