CHAPTER 24: I RULE THE FUCKING UNDERWORLD



CHAPTER 24: I RULE THE FUCKING UNDERWORLD

NIKOLAI’S POV:

“Come with me, I have something to show you”, I said to Lily and left with her walking behind me. We got into the car and I drove in silence.

Lily who sat beside me at the passenger side didn’t say anything, she looked scared and like she had thousands of questions, I don’t blame her since Irina already revealed what I do to her. I overheard them talking.

‘You keep stepping on my tail Irina”, I said in my head and my jaws tightened.

“Wh-where are we going t-to?”, Lily said. She was barely audible but I heard her, I looked at her and didn’t say anything, I continued driving, stepping on the gas a little.

I looked again at Lily’s trembling hands that were holding each other, as her eyes looked outside the window.

‘Is she trying to memorize the paths?’, I couldn’t blame her if she was suspicious of me now, I haven’t given her any reason to trust me, just extra reasons to distrust me.

My grip on the steering tightened as my mind went back to what happened this morning at breakfast, I heard the argument and came down only to see Irina hit Lily on the face, my whole blood drained when I saw that.

I rushed to stop their fight only to make things worse, Lily witnessed the monstrous side of me. If she hadn’t stopped me, I might have truly and easily snapped Irina’s neck.

I saw the fear and shock in her teary eyes and I immediately regretted my actions that morning.

She tried to leave and I held her, trying to explain to her but she shivered with fear in my grip so I had to let her be.

“Fuck”, I muttered a cuss and continued driving through the lonely road that leads to the mountains.

Now that she knows about me, there was no need of keeping things a secret, I need to show her my life, what’s it is like to be me… to be Nikolai Vladimir.

***

I stopped the car when we arrived at the destination.

“Where is this?”, Lily asked, she gripped tight on the seatbelt, scared of coming down from the car.

“I’m not trying to kill you Lily”, I said and didn’t take it well. I left the car and she hesitated before coming down too.

It was 7pm so the sky was already getting dark.

I walked to the direction of the warehouse and Lily followed closely behind, I nodded at my men who stood guard at the entrance, they nodded back and opened the door for us.

“Irina is right”, I started, not looking back to see Lily’s reaction.

“Wha… what do you m-mean?”, She stuttered and I scoffed.

“I overheard what Irina told you and it’s true. I don’t sell diamonds”, I continued and she didn’t say anything. I stopped in my tracks and turned to face her.

Even though the warehouse didn’t have much light, I could still see her innocent face, cherry red lips and pale skin.

“Lily, what I’m about to show you is what I truly am. I don’t want you to be scared of me and I don’t want you to completely accept me either, I’m just trying to be honest with you”, I told her.

We continued walking down the tunnels and then the cries of humans could be heard. Traitors, enemies, past offenders have all because prisoners in this torture house of mine.

As we continued walking deeper down, the sound of those who are been tortured and the torturer where now audible.

“What is that noise?!”, Lily asked, closing her eyes.

“I call this place Torture House”, I said.

“What?”, She asked.

I smirked and gestured to one of my men who was walking behind us all these while to open the door and he did.

“Oh my God!!”, Lily shouted in shock, hands shaky and tears in her eyes at the scene in front of her.

A naked man was tied to an iron chair, blood everywhere, missing three fingers, a toe, one ear and four teeth. Lev definitely outdid himself this time.

His scream filled the room as Lev electrocuted him and Lily screamed too, I told Lev to stop and give us a few minutes alone. It was just left with Lily, the prisoner and I.

I didn’t say anything as I sat down and watched Lily throw up by the corner, I took a scalpel from the table where numerous torture weapons laid and I played with it.

“How?– How co-could you?!”, She struggled to say once she finished throwing up.

“Do what?”, I feigned ignorance.

“Don’t give me that!! I clearly s-see that man tied up and– and being tortured, he looks dead! What have you guys do-done to him?!!!”, She sobbed.

My eyes grew darker, I stood up and approached her but she moved away, I didn’t stop, I moved to her.

“STOP!!!, stop right there!! Don’t come any closer!!”, She screamed in fear. I hated the fact that she believes that I could harm her.

I finally caught up to her and grabbed both her hands and she screamed and kicked for help.

“LISTEN!!!”, I roared and she froze but she still cried.

I looked at her crying eyes and scoffed, I let go of her hand and went to the table of weapons, I took a small dagger and approached the tied up man, I stabbed him on his arm and he shouted in pain.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

“Stop it please!!”, Lily cried out.

“No!!”, I shouted back at her.

I took out the knife from his arm and drove it into his thighs and he didn’t know how to shout.

Lily rush to me and tried to stop me and I grabbed her like a little housefly and she wiggled in my grip.

“Why are you e-even doing this?!!”, She cried the more.

“BECAUSE HE DESERVES ITTT!!!”, I yelled at her and she calmed a bit, staring me right in the eyes and pleading for me to stop torturing this man.

Why does she care so much about a stranger’s life?

“Why? Why does he deserves such punishments? Why subdue him to such torture?”, She asked me.

“He is as much as a monster as I am. He is a liar and a traitor, he is the cause of kids being separated from their parents… Do you have any idea of the things he has done?!!”.

“And how do you know this?”, She asked.

“BECAUSE I RULE THE FUCKING UNDERWORLD!!!”. I said and she shivered. Her eyes moved from my face to the half dead man and she cried at the sight of him.

“You wanted to know who I am Lily, well this is who I am… I am Nikolai fucking Vladimir, Leader of Bratva, second son of Russia most deadliest man, ruler of all underlings and I am not terrified to tear down any organization who dares to challenge me. Trained from the very young age of 8 on how to use a gun, kill-count is 93…”, I took out a gun from behind my pants and shot the prisoner on the forehead, “… 94”, I counted.

Lily only shivered in fear from the loud sound of the gun. I don’t know what it is with me, I shouldn’t be explaining to anyone who I am and what I do but I felt the need to do so for Lily.

‘Why?’, I asked myself.

Lily didn’t move but just continued to stare at the dead man on the chair, with her eyes wide open. I walked to her and made her look at me by grabbing her chin.

“I am not a good person Lily, I have done a lot of bad and horrible things, I was built like that. I traffick weapons and I’m in the mafia, I am a billionaire and I have no regards for liar and traitors… but I draw my line when it comes to women and children”, I said and she scoffed, hitting my hand that was holding her chin and I frowned.

“So you think sparing women and kids would save you a spot in heaven?”, She laughed mockingly.

“I don’t need to go to heaven, cause I’m already in hell”, I said, she nodded and brought her face closer to mine, even though she wasn’t my height, she struggled to meet it.

“Right were you belong, because you’re a monster”, She said to me and my jaw tightened, I smiled and moved the hair that was blocking her face, behind her ears.

“You are right Lily, I deserve hell… because I am a heartless monster”.
