Chapter 11: Dark Torment.

Evening, White resort, Paris:

" Hey, babe do you really have to go this early?" Hayden whined, pouting.

" I'm needed in the entertainment club, even Scarlet is, so let me go," Steph giggled escaping from his embrace.

Hayden sighed," Ok, let me accompany you."

" I'll go too," Alex chimed in, as she was a lot bored sitting with Bryan who always had his nose stuck to a book.

" Great, let's go," Steph said pulling Alex along.

" Do you want to go too?" Lucas asked Mel.

" Nope, I'm good," she shook her head nonchalantly and thought of Scarlet's phone call.

"Bro, do people get engaged only for financial benefits?" she asked Lucas.

He frowned, " Now, where did that come from? ", he continued as she shrugged it off "Maybe, depends on the families and their relations. Why do you ask?" he narrowed his eyes to her.

"Nothing just asked."

" Hey, do you think those marriages would have a good s*x life?" He asked, out of the blue.

Mel burst into laughter as she heard his question.

" Don't you have any other topic to talk about? or are we lacking other topics?"

" Nothing like that, it's just that s*x is an essential topic to talk about " he reasoned and pointed towards Bryan saying," Look at him, do you think he would ever get to enjoy his life stuck into one those?"

" Nah, he sure is no fun. I pity his future wife." Mel sighed and shook her head dismissively.

" Yeah I agree, she is going to kick him off the bed for having no stamina."

Saying that both burst into peels of laughter.

" HEY! Stop it you guys." Bryan glared at both of them before leaving.

Just then Lucas's phone rang.

His face darkened and his mouth broke out into a cunning devilish smirk.

" I'll be back, you go and join them in the garden," he said chasing her out,

" Don't do anything fun! "

Mel saw his weird and creepy smile but didn't care, she grunted but left anyways, to attend the bonfire party in the garden.

Lucas answered the call after checking that she had left

" Yes?"

" Boss, we found the spies. What do we do with them?"

Lucas grinned," Put them in Level 3 DT. A gift to my friend there."

" Sure boss."

"Good." saying that he cut the call and went to find a certain someone.

.....

Lucas was, well-known as the Venom in the underworld, the owner of the ill-legal drug called DEATHWISH, prepared exclusively for Dark Torment Syndicate.

DT syn. was owned by the Empress of the underworld. She was known for her ruthlessness and righteousness a combination hard to keep up with. She never allowed poaching, organ selling, ra*e, prostitution, etc.. or at least got it under control.

She had the help of the Dark Prince, Venom, Devilfish, Azure tiger, Vermillion dragon, The Enchantress, etc., the leaders of powerful syndicates, each with their own field of expertise, supporting her. This made her almost invincible in the underworld.

Lucas's base (which was under the water) had some trouble with the drug production recently, some people had set up spies and the cops had been catching up. This created a lot of mess, hence the phone call.

The syn.'s leaders could always use DT syn.'s prison or tormenting methods if needed. They sent all the criminals or their offenders to DT's most valuable and scariest person, Glen Lee, the tormentor known for his ruthless animal nature.

The people whom he handled died the most painful deaths. He was one of the most loyal people who worked under DT syn. Level 3 in DT was entirely handled by him and his team.

Lucas had just sent those people as a tiny little gift to his friend - Glen Lee...
