Lopen
Walking out of my room, I come face to face with Dan with anger coursing through my veins. How dare he touch my omega?.
Without a moment's hesitation, I grabbed his neck; pinning him against the wall as he choked against my hold.
"How dare you come into my house and lay your hands on what's mine?" I snarled, tightening my grip on his neck. "Then you go ahead to threathen me as if I'm the one desperate to do business with you"
A short laughter of mockery escaped my throat. "How delirious"
Dan shows no remorse. "You're the one with an unstable omega. You should be putting him in check not me. Any alpha would have responded to his pheromones in his heat. You should train your dog properly, don't you think?"
Right. Dan had a point. But every alpha also knows not to touch what belongs to me, Lopen King. "I was in the midst of doing that if you hadn't come knocking on my door"
"Then let me apologize" Dan says, clearly not meaning it. "I'm sorry you weren't able to jerk off"
That fucker. Loosening my grip on his neck, I snarled. "Come with me to my office"
I couldn't risk Emmiel hearing in on our business if we continued to stay outside the room.
My office was situated at the mansions forest floor. Finally alone with Dan and out of ear shot, I cut to the chase. "Who is it this time and what?"
Dan passes over a photo to me. In the picture was a blonde girl in her late twenties. "Kill her"
This was one of the numerous business I did amongst other. Killing whosoever anyone wanted as long as they could pay for it.
The reason behind the killing or why the person was wanted dead had nothing to do with me.
In this aspect of my business, Dan was a regular customer of mine. We've worked together not once or twice.
I couldn't even put a number on it because honestly, I'd lost count.
Taking the picture from Dan's hands, I assured him. "Consider it done but this time is going to be a little bit different"
Dan furrowed his brow, confused. "How so?"
"You're going to pay upfront"
Dan sighs, disappointed. "This is our first rodeo together, Lopen. Have a bit more of faith in me"
Pulling out his phone, he requests. "How much?. 5grands?"
"You're not paying with money, Dan" Moving away from him, I picked up a small table knife. "You touched my omega. I swear, I'm this close to cutting off your whole hands but I'm not that mean"
"So just one finger from the hand you used to touch Emmiel" I add, passing the table knife over to Dan. "Cut off any finger of your choice"
Dan stared at me, loss for words. "You're crazy, Lopen"
I chuckled. "So, I've been told. The call is yours though, Dan. You can wake out of my house with your complete fingers and get someone else to do business with you or you could just loose a finger"
"Whatever you choose to do, do quickly" I state. "As you know, I'm a busy man"
Dan says nothing. I guess I needed to force him to take action. Squeezing the photo in my hand, I was about to throw it in the trash can when Dan stops me.
"You f*cker" He cursed. "I'll cut off the finger"
A wide grin splayed across my lips. "I thought so. Hurry up then"
With the table knife in one hand, Dan shut his eyes tightly as he uses it to cut off the pinky finger of his right hand.
His scream filled the room but it sounded like mere music to my ears.
Picking up his cut off pinky finger, I threw it into the trash can. "Nice doing business either you, Dan. Now, get the fuck out of my house"
"Lopen, you bastard" Dan cursed, clutching his bleeding hand. "Don't think you'll be at tbe top of tbe game forever. One day you're going to fall hard. I can't wait for that day to come"
Fall hard. Me? As if. "Then you might just die waiting, Dan" I informed. "And filter your words when you talk to me. It's starting to piss me off. Now, get out"
Snarling at me, Dan turns around to leave my office. As he turns on the door knob, he freezes before rushing out.
It wasn't until he was gone did I notice Emmiel by the door. Fuck. "How long have you been standing there?"
Emmiel trembled visibly. "S-Sorry. It's just that I heard screaming and-"
"It's alright" I cut him off. I couldn't have him bursting into tears infront of me. It would only irritate me. "You don't have to say anything further"
"C-Can I ask what happened to his hand?"
"Oh, he just apologized for touching you. It's no big deal" Looking at his red, swollen cheeks, I'm reminded of how I'd angrily smacked him.
Reaching out for his cheeks, he flinched under my touch. "Does it still hurt?"
Emmiel shakes his head. "I deserved it. I was wrong"
"Thankfully you've learnt your lesson now, right?"
"Yes, I have. Thank you for teaching me"
Look at that!. I could train my dog quite well, Dan.
I reward him with a pat on the head. "Good boy. I'm going to work now and won't be back till late in the evening. If you need anything, tell Marie to get it for you"
"I will"
"There's a bar at the back of the mansion and a swimming pool nearby. Feel free to explore while I'm gone. Everything in this house that is neither in my room nor my office is free for use at your disposal"
Approaching Emmiel by the door, I add. "And for your own good the next time you hear a scream or anything at all from my office, it's better you don't get curious"
