Chapter 27
“Oh.” She said quietly.
“Yeap.” I replied as I turned on the tap and washed my hands and face before tugging a towel from the small rack to mop my face and the tips of my hair.
“What about me? And Nicole?”
Shit, we didn’t even think of them when we planned some hours ago.
“We’ll think of something,” I replied as I headed back into the bedroom to look for what to wear.
“Whatever you guys think of, I’m not staying behind.” She added as she walked back into the room still fully naked to flop on the edge of the bed, her perky tits bouncing a little and trying to distract me from looking for something to wear.
My phone rang again and I groaned as I walked towards it and saw Tristan’s name flashing over it. The moment I accepted the call, it went dead just as a text from Tristan came in.
Tristan; You fucker done eating her yet? Since you suddenly feel eating her would give you strength instead of eating some real food like a normal human being.
Auden; Shut up, fool. I’ll be down there in a few minutes… and I wasn’t eating her.
Tristan; Of course, and hurry up. The fool already sent an address too.
Auden; Be there soon.
I threw my phone down the bed and dressed up quickly. Before slipping my phone in my pocket, I remembered that Aria didn’t have a thing to wear.
Shit. I cursed in my head as I told her I’ll be back in a minute before heading towards Nicole’s room to borrow a few clothes.
Nicole was awake and standing beside her window, her clothes changed from what she wore previously.
“Are we going to go get him now?” She asked the moment I pushed her door closed behind me.
Fuck.
There’s no getting out of it now, Aria and Nicole are definitely coming with us.
“Yes, in a few minutes. I need to borrow a few clothes for a friend.”
“The one who was in your shirt this afternoon?” Nicole asked.
Why did everyone notice when Aria supposedly walked in on us this afternoon except me?
I nodded my head in confirmation. Nicole glanced at me for a few more seconds before heading towards a opened traveling bag beside the closet to dig out a black top and some brown knee length shorts.
“These are the ones which are not really fitting on my body, it would be really tight on her though.”
I drew her into a hug and kissed her hair, “This would do just fine, thank you.”
I turned around and paused at the door to inform her, “Daven would come get you in a few minutes, alright?”
She nodded her head in reply before turning back towards the window, I shut the door quietly behind me and headed back towards my room and let myself in.
Aria jolted in fright before breathing out a sigh of relief on taking in whom it was.
“Here, wear these.” I handed her the clothes and watched as she shuffled into them. The brown short hugged her naked butt perfectly while the black top was a little loose on her body, which I was really thankful for. I don’t need her nipples poking through her shirt and distracting me when I should be concentrating.
“Daven would come get you in a few minutes, alright?” I said to her while pausing at the door.
“Wait,” Aria called out before walking towards me to stop beside my frame beside the door.
Aria surprisingly jumped up and wrapped her hands against my neck. After a few seconds, I wrapped my hands around her and lifted her up to save my neck from snapping into two. Her legs wrapped themselves around my waist while her hand still clutched on my neck. I buried my nose into her neck and breathed in deeply, trying to draw strength from her hug.
“He’s fine. You’ll find him and bring him home, alright?” She whispered into my neck. I didn’t bother replying, and instead squeezed her tighter, hoping to God that she was actually right.
——–
Aria was dead wrong, a quick glance at Nicolas tied up form showed just how far away he was from being fine.
His white shoulder length hair was rough, dirty and wild looking as if he had been pulled around by his hair, blood stuck to a part of his hair, making that place stay glued to his scalp as if red gel got applied on that spot.
His lips were swollen and busted, his left eyes were extremely swollen as if he had taken too hard a punch on that organ. His clothes were tattered and my heart dropped into my stomach when I noticed how he was limping, so was the way his trousers were unbuckled and almost falling down his hips.
The noise I had been trying to drown roared in my head and filled my ear with a loud ringing sound.
“What the fuck did you do to him?” I roared, the noise in my head increasing at every passing second.
“Would you stop shouting for a moment and take your eyes away from him?” The slimy voice I’ve been hearing through the phone since yesterday’s night snapped from his spot on a high chair a few feet away where Nicolas was being held up by two men.
I turned my furious eyes at him I repeated my question, my hand itching to dip into my shirt and dig out my gun to blow up all their faces in five seconds but I tried all my possible best to push that thought away from my head since I just know that there was already a plan B waiting around the corner if I tried anything foolish.
“Your brother is such a pussy, he couldn’t even take it like a man. Such an excuse for a man, don’t you think?” The bastard snickered out.
The roaring noise in my head increased in folds, God, if I get my hands on this man’s neck I’m breaking it off with my fingers.
I took another glance at Nicolas and glanced away immediately, swallowing a helpless sob that came into my throat out of nowhere. I didn’t need a genius to tell me what was already too glaring obvious,
Nicolas got raped.
The thought left a bitter taste in my throat, making me want to puke whenever it was ready to be puked, but I knew nothing was going to come out except water.
Christ. He’s only a sixteen years old kid who looked twenty while his twin sister looked fifteen, he was still a child for fuck’s sake.
“The fuck did you do that to him for? He’s only a kid you fucking bastard.” I said quietly.
I just want to get this over with and lift my brother into my arms and take him to somewhere where no one could get to him again until he gets a little stronger at least.
“I know, makes it more enjoyable for me to do it with him, y’know… the feeling of them resisting like they were given a choice to begin with in the first place, and the fact that they’re still kids is just so urggg.” The slimy bastard groaned in pleasure as he threw his head back as if reminiscing on one of his fucked up scenes.
This dude was a pedophile and a proud one at that, only God knows how many times he had done this to innocent kids. The thought alone was nauseating as it sounded, I couldn’t even bring myself to try to picture it hence I burst into stupid tears before this fucker.
“You’re a fucking pedophile who deserves to rot in hell fire.” I spat at him, gagging a little at nauseous things the person I was talking to at the moment could have done to some other innocent people.
“Shut up you fool. You act like you’re innocent. You kill people, remember? You’re going to hell with me too. We’ll rot together.”
I shook my head, “I never said I wasn’t going to hell, at least I’m not a pedophile,” I snapped at him before continuing. “That’s one of the most nauseous things humans can become on this earth, and you’re one of them.”
“Blah, blah, blah… are you with the diamond or not?” The fucker asked, a silver gun was gripped by his left hand and I watched as he licked a long line on the gun before kissing the barrel of the gun, making me wish he was stupid enough to mistakenly shoot his face with his own hands.
“Of course I am, how many times are you gonna ask the same question, you dumb of what?” I demanded, glancing sideways at Nicolas. His head was lolling to one side of his face as if it was too much work for him to keep holding it up. Hang in there a little while longer, I’ll get you out of here.
“Let me see it.”
“Hand my brother over first.” I demanded.
The fucker rolled his eyes before gesturing to the two dudes holding Nicolas up. The shorter looking one pushed him forward aggressively which made Nicolas stumble and take the second taller looking guard down along with him. Blood roared in my ears in a ringing sound and I dug out my gun from my shirt before I could think my action through and shot the guard who had shoved Nicolas in his forehead twice. I wanted nothing more than to go pull him up and take him up but I couldn’t afford to take my eyes away from this slimy fuck who was sickening grinning widely at the dead guard before glancing back at me.
“I just knew you were going to loose your temper at that dumb fuck’s slip. He should have known better than to push your brother that way, I mean, he could barely stand up properly this morning.”
