CHAPTER SEVENTEEN:A Bait.
Alejandro's pov
~~~
He was literally astonished to find me here,after i had caught him watching his sleeping beauty's asleep.
Sleeping beauty?
Nah,she's not any beauty!
At least,that's what i told myself,but it was very obvious that i was finding it hard to behave since after that time in the basement.
My thinking was literally filled with nothing,but of her beautiful face and that was bad,so bad that drinking tonight couldn't help clear my mind off her.
It couldn't.
And right now, watching Juan standing outside of her door made me feel things that I haven't felt for years.
The biggest of all was jealousy,I couldn't help it not to rush up to him and strangle him to death for peeping on her.
But i held it in, quite well so that i won't turn out to be such a fucking pussy like Juan,who had his sense's and life turned upset down since after meeting her.
Angelina lopez.
She was nothing compared to the tons of woman i had at my beck and call,but yet i still find myself craving for something so forbidden from her.
She was supposed to die,no...she had to die.That's the consequences that comes with messing up with me, and changing my mind just because of that fine face was like giving everyone a tip that Alejandro Martinez had turned weak.
I wasn't weak,I'm a god.
God's don't allow any normal humans to interfere in their basic life,and right now watching Juan who couldn't say anything, after seeing me made me want to punish him badly for going against the rules.
He had turned weak for her,it's very obvious that he couldn't seem to hide it any longer and i wasn't any fool not to hear the gossip going around since after he begged for her life.
That was the last straw that broke the camel's back, because i expected better from him.Juan was much closer to me than anyone else, including my cousin brother Andres who i didn't associate more with.
It's being that way for years, regardless of the both of us growing up together and doing everything together.
It felt as if we don't belong to the same world,and he knew that.Andres doesn't do the dirty work.
I have done pretty bad things that not even the law can be able to stop me, but he wasn't like me.
He was more like uncle josh, his dead Father who wouldn't like that i had his son involved in my shits.
Hell no,I wasn't one to force submission and alliance,Andres was here because he too was also on a mission the pay back for what they did to his father.
So i could probably say that we are both on the same page,but I don't know how long it will be because i heard he's being acting soft towards Angelina's sister who had gotten more attached to him.
But i couldn't question Juan's loyalty, because he knew that his life was in my hands.It was like a ticking time bomb waiting for my orders to let it go off.
He had being one loyal brother to the family for years, but right at this moment i couldn't say the same, because it seems his mind wasn't clear to know what he stood to lose if he goes against my rules to have anything to do with anyone under me.
"Boss,I didn't know you were down here.What brings you down here?"He asked,with a forced smile to hide his nervousness.
"I could ask the same about you Juan,what are you doing here when it's late?''I said, walking up to him with my hands behind my back.
He tried.
He couldn't keep eye contact with me,and i was anxious to know if he knew he couldn't lie to me tonight.
"I was just checking the guards on duty,you know how lazy they are boss also judging with the situation with Nacha,we have to be extra careful"
He lied straight to my face,and i didn't do anything but look away from him to see that the door was a bit slightly open.
Oh!
Sleeping beauty was wide awake?
"Do you have feelings for her?"I asked, taking a cigarette out of its box, and a lighter from my pockets.
I'm quite sure that she was hearing everything,and i couldn't want anything but to make it obvious to her about the man who was standing by her doorsteps moments ago.
I wanted to make it known to her that she will be signing off her death soon, if she reciprocates what he's offering.
There's a chance that she gets to live,and that would be by working for me, although i haven't known what aspect she will be good at.
That's so generous of me to think that way, because I'm sure that she would do a very good job by working at my club..
If she had the capacity to seduce Juan,I knew that no man out there wouldn't mind paying millions just to have her.
"Ofcourse not boss,I won't dare to do that, that's going against the rules in the house"I couldn't tell if he was lying again, because he sounded more serious and looking straight at me to answer that.
Was this his strategy to make it sound as if he was telling the truth?
I couldn't help but wonder.
But he will be one stupid fellow who will be digging his own grave,if he thinks he can fool me.
He thinks he can play this game of trust more than me, but unluckily I've been there, done that and I'm the master too.
So i nodded,while placing my hand in his shoulder to reveal my game card to him,I couldn't wait for him to stupidly fall into my card.
So i threw a bait. All I wanted right now was to see if the greedy fish would gladly dive in and chew more than he could bite.
"I'm sending her to the whorehouse tomorrow Juan,what do you think?"
Bang!
I did it,let's see how he's going to escape this time.
I couldn't help but keep calm,and wait for the storm to start,if only the captain would be able to sail through it carefully this time.
What are you going to do Juan Alcatraz?
