LOVESICK

Epilogue

The gates to the old warehouse swung open by the two guards awaiting my arrival by the giant doors,I stepped out of the car as soon as Eric opened the door for me.

"Welcome Madam" both of the guards greeted which I returned with a nod,I walked inside letting the sound of nothing but my high heels echo through the abandoned warehouse,
There he was,tied to his chair,eyes blindfolded and head hanging low from the position he was tied in for the past two days.

I sat on the chair in front of him and crossed my legs,Eric immediately handed me my cigarette pack after i gestured him to bring it to me,he also lit up the cigarette and gave it to me ready to use.

I noticed how the man wasn't reacting to my presence so I quickly understood that he probably passed out from exhaustion from not being able to sleep for two days.

I nodded to one of my security guards and he grabbed the bucket of ice cold water and poured it entirely on the man,he jumped awake gasping for air as each cold water drop traveled down his back making him shiver.

"Well Good morning Andrew,it's almost noon,haven't you been sleeping for a while?" I chuckled blowing the smoke into the already dust polluted air of the warehouse.
"Madam?" He asked with a clear shiver in his tone, "Madam please,please spare me! I promise I won't ever do it again Madam! Please" he started to beg for his life before i could even say anything,

"It's such a shame,you were one of my best men,you had the fast action careful decision making mind and traits that I exclusively wanted in my team,but you had to play a dangerous game,a game you a knew you'd lose." I said leaning back on my chair,
"What was the point of betraying us like that?
Where you trying to humiliate me in front of my husband? That those two years that you've worked with me with were nothing? Shame on you"

"I did everything,i worked my damn ass off to get a higher level and higher ranking,we all did..but you definitely prefer Eric! You were always unfair with all of us,because you could never chose or trust anyone more or other than Eric,so would you blame me turning away from you?" He helplessly talked while he also struggled with the tight ties around his legs and arms.

"I never favored anyone over the other,Eric or not,you are all the same to me.
I'm not punishing you for leaving,a lot of my men left without me tracking them down and torturing them,the only difference here is that you didn't leave us,you betrayed us.
You gave sensitive information to our biggest rival to receive a few coins and keep yourself alive? Hadn't i given money to all of you? You weren't trying to leave Andrew,you were trying to play this dangerous game of Russian roulette." I got up and ordered one of the guards to untie his blindfold,

"Madam please...i was under hard circumstances,they almost killed me.." he began to cry,tears..fake tears,tears that I learned how to be defensible against,those tears didn't warm my cold heart,those tears don't affect me anymore,I'm a ruthless woman,and i have no empathy for those who betray me.

"You weren't under any circumstances,if you really were under circumstances or threatened you wouldn't have done it three times," I explained staring deep into his scared eyes,
"Eric,give me the gun."

Eric handed me my gun,and without any more waiting or hesitation I aimed the gun at his head and took a tiny second to give him one last words,

"You've betrayed us when we were a home to you,you tried to murder my husband,you tried to sneak our weapons and give them to our rivals for money,you also harassed my maids to the point were one came crying to me," i held my cigarette between my fingers and smirked,
"You don't deserve to live anymore,but you don't deserve to die painlessly ether,so in that case,"

I shot both of his legs then his pelvis,which is deemed to be the most painful place to be shot in,he screamed in pain and cried as loud as child,

"Who are you to chose who gets to fucking die or not?" He yelled in pain trying to do anything to trigger my anger,
"I'm the fucking Madam." I laughed in response,I walked closer to him and lifted his chin up,
"Now,I'll let you die a slow painful death,as a punishment for every house you've corrupted,every one you betrayed and every thing bad you've done."
I let go of him and walked away to my spot;

"You all know this isn't the first time this happens," I turned around and talked loudly so every single one of the guards who were scattered around the warehouse could hear me,
"Let this be an example,or a lesson,to all of those of you who even dare to think about betraying me,You won't get away with it..because trust me,I'll have you crawl to your grave wishing to die rather than stay alive after I've caught you,So boys,torture him until his voice is no more,Understood?"

"Yes Madam!" They all replied in sync afraid of the slightest mistake that might doom their fate,
"That's what I thought. Let's go Eric." I walked out of the warehouse and Eric followed. I threw my cigarette away on the entrance stomping it with my feet to let it out until i heard;

"I see you got the job done,",
it was Ivan who was leaning on the car with his arms crossed and his sunglasses shining brighter than sunshine,
"Wasn't gonna wait for you Master," I smirked and approached him,he just arrived and I didn't wait for him to get the mission over with.

"So you don't need me anymore?" He asked grasping my chin gently with his soft fingers,
"Of course I need you,..just not when it comes to punishing ugly bastards who try to kill us."
I winked playing it out as a joke,
"Woah? Who do you think you are?" He chuckled pretty proud of the power I learned how to handle,
"I'm the Madam" I replied with a smirk.

"How bold." He tightened his grip and pulled me closer,
"But aren't i the Master?"
"..Yes" I replied with a grin,
"Yes what?" He grabbed tighter,
I leaned closer into his ears and whispered;
"Yes Master"
