Mike's captor hovers over him, his eyes dangerous in the darkness of his new prison
Mike struggle against his hold as he takes his chin in his hand, forcing mike to meet his gaze
???
You're going to do as you're told from now on
It isn't a question it's a command and how could I deny him! The notorious Mob Boss, the ruthless murderer....
I now belong to the ~The Beast of the Underworld~
Mike
Dad's medical bills has gone high again
Mike
I won't be able to make rent again
With a sigh he looks around the modest bookstore: Belle Books
When his mother died Mike promised to look after it but...
Michael
Awww. Is business getting tough?
I groan at his voice.. Michael my cousin he was saunters into the shop with a cocky smile
Michael
You know Mike if you need money I can give you some unlike you, I got plenty
Mike
You never help with the store Michael what's the catch?
Michael
You're a pretty thing.. and I've got a buddy in town who's looking for some alternative entertainment
Michael
I'll give you enough cash to save this shitty little shop..if I can lend you to him for the night
Michael leans forward and roughly grabs my chin..my heart stops in my chest..my face paling in horror as his words sink in
Mike
You want to sell me out to someone (shock)
Michael
Don't be so stuck up.. you don't even have to do anything just.. bend over and take it
you jerk Mike's head out of his grasp and step away from him
Before I could even blink he lunges forward grabbing me by the collar and shoving me hard against the counter
Michael
If you weren't family I swear I'd...
Mike
You'd what!? Since when do you care about family
Michael
you have no idea what I would do for our family you spoiled little brat
he shoves mike hard with both hands sending me flying back into one of the displays with a crash
episode 2
A low voice sound from behind me, buttery soft yet harsh at the sometime, like malt whisky burning it's way down my throat
???
It's seems I've arrived just in time
this man is tall and broad his cold eyes calculating and harsh against the usual warmth of my store he looks older, maybe in his 30's or so
But most striking is the thing scar that runs over his eyes like a beast's claws. He came closer and help me to get up
???
(A small smirk raises to his face)
???
I'll ask again...what exactly is going on here
His voice is rough and low with a hint of an accent peeking through. French perhaps
Michael
Well, well, well... what a surprise to see you here you've walked in on some family business
the stranger's gaze snaps to Michael, and his eyes narrow Michael's sharpen as well and I frown
Mike
*wait they know each other*
Michael walks up to me, clasping a hand on my shoulder and squeezing tightly.. which made me wince
Michael
My cousin and I were just having a little argument. You know how young men can get. Nothing serious
Michael
Isn't that right mike
He leans down and whispering in my ear
Michael
Do what I say you little shit
I glare defiantly back at him. The man hums, drawing my attention to him
???
Are you sure it isn't anything serious?
He stares at Michael with disdain as if his calculating gaze can see through to the heart of him
???
Because if it is, I'll gladly help you with your problem
His eyes pierced into my eyes, freezing me in place with their intensity. I swallowed, looking from the stranger to my cousin
Mike
*if I keep quiet Michael won't leave me alone*
Mike
He was threatening me in my own store, which I don't appreciate
Michael
*what the heck he really told him what happened this son of bitch*
The man hum, his piercing eyes appraising me and Michael in silent judgment
Then he steps between me and Michael plucking my cousin's hand off me like he would on an insect
???
In that case you better get away from the young man before someone makes you
Michael scoffs taking a few steps back
Michael
Are you threatening me!
???
Why yes I thought that I was obvious
Michael seethes but the stranger stays put
The stranger looked at me and asked me a question
???
Do you want him out of the store
???
Looking at Michael... you heard the man
???
Honestly it's hard to come by these days, especially when you're being threatened by scum
Michael
What did you call me? You fucking..
Michael step's up to him raising his hand
But the stranger moves fast catching Michael's hand before he can strike
When he speaks his voice lowers into a cold, near-growl, a warning
???
Don't try my patients today Michael
I stared in shock at the scene. But before I could do anything the stranger let Michael go
???
Sors de ma vue (Get out of my sight in French)
Michael backs off before glaring right at me
Michael
We aren't done yet
Michael stalks off the door clattering closed behind him
The man sighs straightening the cuffs of his pristine suit
???
I apologize there was no need for you to see that
episode 3
Author
so how are y'all doing (^^)
Author
So this story won't be a short story I think
Author
This is my first comment and I just wanna say thank you so much ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ
Mike
It was just self-defense..
???
In a manner of speaking it was..but Michael could never hurt me
Mike
If I may ask how do you know each other
The stranger pauses and staring at me inquisitively before his cold mask returns
???
Our father's used to do business together
That's surprising. I haven't seen Michael's father since I was a child.. To be honest I never really thought much of it
Mike
Well, is there something I can help you find!
I study him, the sharp lines of his cheeks and jaw. The dark eyes..he shakes his head
???
Just browsing.. I'm here to meet someone actually
Mike
Oh like a girlfriend or something?
The stranger leans forward, a smirk playing across his handsome face as he gets close
A thrill of heat rises to my cheeks as he stares into my eyes
Mike
What's your type, then?
???
How about you tell me your type first
I swallow, meeting his eyes head on
???
Maybe you should find that out
I response is interrupted by a scream from the alley behind the store
Mike
That's my father's voice!
But before I could even think I was out the door running around to the alleyway behind my store
I stop dead at the sight before me
Two figures in the dark suits surround a man crumpled on the ground, holding him at gunpoint
The crumpled from my father looks up his eyes widening in shock
Thomas
Mike, no... stay back
Mike
*I have to call the police*
Mike take out his phone and hold it's up
Mike
I'm calling the police
Thug
It'll be the last thing you ever do
The man growl's a hand shooting out and grabbing the front of my shirt, jerking me forward
Thug
Get out of my fucking face
something cold presses against my side I glands down to see the barrel of a gun digging into me
my throat went dry as I stare back at the man
Thomas
Mike... please... just stay out of it
Thug
Listen to the old man, kid we're under orders for 'Elias Roux'
Elias Roux an infamous mob boss known for his ruthlessness. They call him the Beast of the underworld
Mike
*we own a bookstore. Why would the mob be here*
The thug pushes me away and I slam against the brick wall behind me
Thug
Last chance. Get out of here and pretend you never saw this.. Is that clear
???
there's no need to bully the poor boy
The low gravelly voice cuts through the air like a knife... everyone freezes and I slowly turn to see my handsome customer
???
There you are...Tom I've been waiting
