Chapter 12

The unconscious Lucas woke up, he opened his eyes slowly, he tried to stand up, but realized that he has been tied to a pole.

"No, no, no, fuck!!!!!! Aurora and her family will pay for this" he yelled.

Some of Liam's men came into the room to check on Lucas. "He is awake sir", one of them updated Mr Peterson through the earpiece.

"Who...who...who...who is SIR??", Lucas asked.

"I am", Mr Peterson answered as he walked in.

"Oh, it's you, fighting for your coward son-in-law. Where is he?? Oh, he is missing", he said, laughing hysterically.

"Shut up! Shut it! You'll pay for all these. Where is my son-in-law??", Mr Peterson asked.

Lucas smirked without uttering a word.

"Don't make this hard. It won't be fun if i decide to hurt you"

"Find your son-in-law, do I look like I know where he is?? Maybe he ran away because your daughter is a spoiled arrogant bitch, who...", a slap landed on Lucas' face before he finished his sentence.

"Don't forget, I'm still a Mafia boss, because I'm calm now doesn't mean I've changed.", Mr Peterson said to Lucas.

"Oh no, I'm shaking in my boots, I'm so scared", he said sarcastically, laughing hysterically

Mr Peterson walked out annoyed, two of his men ran after him.

"Sir?", one of them said.

"Torture him", he said, clenching his jaw, and his veins looking like they are about to pop out.

The men went back in and told the other men about the instruction given.

One entered a room and brought a big bowl, another brought spices, and another one brought a boiling ring.

Lucas looked at them, with fear in his eyes. "Who...who the fuck do you want to use these on?? I'll kill you all, mark my words", he said.

They placed Lucas' feet in the bowl, added water and placed the boiling ring.

"Will you tell us where Sir Liam is?", one of the men asked.

Lucas laughed, "Who do you think you are talking to?"

"Why have a conversation with him, let's torture him, and he'll decide between pain and the truth.", another one of the men said.

"Switch it on"

"Ahhhh...mhhhn...nnmm..haaah...ahhhh...", Lucas groaned in pain.

"Let's switch it off", one of the men said, "maybe he is ready to confess."

The switch was turned off, but Lucas refused to talk.

"Switch it on.", the switch was turned on and Lucas groaned in pain.

The men left the room, leaving Lucas in pain.

They went to meet Me Peterson.

"Yes?", he said calmly.

"He is refusing to talk", one of the men answered.

"Let's leave, he is adamant.", Mr Peterson said.

They went in, Mr Peterson signaled and the switch was turned off.

"Lucas, you are an handsome dude, don't let stubbornness ruin your beauty, tell us the location of Liam and you'll be set free", Mr Peterson said calmly.

"I can't and I won't tell you", Lucas answered.

"Ok, ok, you don't have to tell us where Liam is.", he said with a pause. "Release him and i would let you go"

"No!!", Lucas yelled.

"Okay, I guess we will do it the hard way", Mr Peterson brought out a whip and smashed it on Lucas' neck. He cried in pain.

Lucas was given a pepper bath, as Mr Peterson ordered his men to pour a bowl of spices mixed with water on Lucas.

"Ahhhhhhh...Ok...ok, I'll release your stupid son-in-law"

"Good, get him his phone", Mr Peterson ordered.

Lucas made a call and ordered Liam's release.

"Take back the phone. Good of you, you'll be released after we've seen Liam. Give him dinner and close the building.", Mr Peterson said as he walked away.
