A Trap

Lucius's question was met with silence, which left him confused as he glanced around in confusion. He could see the fear in the eyes of these men, it was the type of fear you would get from a debtor who didn't have the loan shark's money.

'They want to give me what I want… They want to live, but they don't have the means.' Lucius muttered silently in his head as a frown stretched across his face.

Something was wrong!

Flick!

Suddenly, the light of the room turned red, and a detached voice resonated from all corners of the room.

"Greetings, Black Death." The voice said dryly.

Buzz!

Lucius frowned and instinctively took a step back, his eyes darting to all corners of the room. To know who he is they need to see him, and he destroyed all cameras before acting, so how can they see him?

The only answer to this was that there was a hidden camera in the room!
