Almost a victim(2)

A man stood facing another that was seated in a cold metal chair, his hand was placed at the back chained to the concrete floor. He is covered in blood covering the bottom half of his face, the blood trickles from his nose down to his chin dripping slowly to the lap.

The metal chair was drilled to the ground making it impossible to be lifted and used as a weapon. Daniel arrived at the underground cellar in time for the man to lock eyes with him. He pleaded for his life and begged them to release him.

"Please I am telling the truth, I am not here for any of the Andersons!!"

He wailed and tears poured down his cheek mixing with the blood sipping to his mouth. He can taste the saltiness and metallic taste plodding his tongue making him constantly spit.

Daniel figured that the man wasn't sent after him since only a fool will be brave enough to infiltrate Anderson's compound alone and unmanned. He enters the cell and puts on his leather gloves to face the haggard man fighting for his consciousness.

"Inject him with adrenaline" Daniel instructed the man next to him to wake the intruder since he wanted to know who had sent him to the compound

The sharp needle penetrate the man's skin and making his eyes wide open before he realized the pain he felt on his shackled ankles and broken fingers. He knew he can only defend himself as much before dying in this cold cell. He figured it was not worth keeping the secret and in exchange for misinformation, he wanted protection and to leave town.

Daniel approaches the man that keeps tugging the chain behind him, he doesn't always get his hands dirty, however, since this man dares to arrive uninvited to his territory and family home, regardless of what is the agenda, he knew someone will be getting hurt if they are not able to catch him.

"Now tell me, who sent you"

There is no emotions or tone to Daniel's command, it's as cold as his looks right now, and the monotone sounded eerily calm to those that is not familiar with win, nonetheless, the rest of the security details knew that their boss is raging inside.

"I will tell you! But I want protection and send me away from the city" the intruder negotiate as best as he thought he knew. He figured since they wanted something from him, surely they will agree.

Laugh engulfed the surroundings, from one person to the others, like a chain reaction. This man has no idea what he has got himself into. No one negotiates with the devil and the devil is the man name, Daniel Anderson.

Daniel hooked the man's jaw shaking his face and blood splattered to the wall where his face was. Screams shrill echoing throughout and no one bats an eyelid.

"I am gonna ask you once again, and this time you are going to tell me, who sent you?".

Stuttering from the pain Daniel inflicted, he knew he has no room for negotiation and admit defeat.

"I was instructed to get a woman" he gave up.

Daniel tapped the man's cheek complimenting him on his cooperation.

"Now go on, don't let me stop you"

The security details next to him, push a chair for Daniel since he figured the man will have to spill every little detail and they will be there a while.

"The...the woman name is Helena Lee"

Daniel scrunch his eyebrow wondering if he had heard wrong.

"Are you sure it's Helena Lee"?. He asked making sure this man does not casually throwing a name.

"Yes...I swear!! I promise I'm speaking the truth. The woman I was showed her picture and she has this odd eye where her eye colors are not the same. Really beautiful woman!"

"Who wants her kidnap?" Daniel upon hearing the odd eye knew the man was telling the truth. His breath hitched thinking Helena can be taken tonight if his security did not catch the guy. He crossed his arms wanting to know more and at the same time gesturing to the security next to him to let him find Helena's whereabouts.

"I was supposed to get her and deliver her to Emporium Hotel at the penthouse!, please that is all I know, I don't want trouble! Please I'm begging you"

Rage clouded Daniel as soon as he heard Helena almost become a victim tonight and possibly raped by someone. He got up and punch the man in front of him before fisting his hair and whispering in his ear.

"Who wants her at the hotel?"

Sobbing, the man stuttered even more since Daniel's other hand held a knife pointing to his throat.

"Young Master Matthew Long, I overheard him talking to the phone he wants her on the bed to force her to be with him...please have mercy, I'm only a middleman, I don't know she is significant",

Slashhhhhhhhh...Blood gurgling coming from the man, pooling down on the floor, it's started curdling and it dripped like an animal that was slaughtered in the slaughter house. The blood smells permeate into every one senses while Daniel threw the knife to the floor and removing his bloody gloves. The sound of the knife clanking touching the concrete made everyone's attention deveate to their boss that is looking at Armano. He is the head of security for Daniel's details. Seeing his boss in front of him that was acting brashly and impulsive, he never would of thoughts the day will come. He had never heard of the woman before but seems like Daniel lose his rationality over the matter. In spite of that, he knew Daniel more than anyone and the man had done even worse act than this.

"Call Troy! Get rid of this scum! And find Helena Lee"

"Should we approach when we found her? "

"No..just watch her from a distance, I need a shower" He left them to return to the Manor and get himself cleaned up.

Aaron has told him that Helena was obsessed with Matthew Long then why does Matthew need to force her unless the tabloid has been writing false stories? . He is not one to meddle in useless matter, but he felt the need to know more regarding this matter. He convince himself since he wanted to know as much as possible about Helena that was openly challenging him earlier. Yess that is exactly what it was, nothing more, he needed to lay attention to his new feisty enemy.
