After cleaning up their plates and hiding away the drug, Arlo decided to visit Ryland.

The atmosphere is quite tense. Arlo isn't the friendliest of all people but right now, he's particularly venomous due to the fact that he's leaving his beloved John in the hands of another. And one that used to physically and verbally abuse him for that matter. He absolutely despised anyone that wronged John in the past, but perhaps, in this case, he could take advantage of it.

"Do you understand what you're agreeing to?" Arlo asked skeptically. Near instantly, it was followed by Ryland's fervent nod but he couldn't gather up the courage to stare up at him. "Good. I will not make any purchases of possible equipment you might need to inflict pain, but I will supply you with the money itself. I will provide extra money so you can buy other things along with them. Don't draw suspicion to yourself, I don't want you in the authority's hands before we even get started."

They met in a place where no one should visit. Wellston's turf wars ground. As of now, there was no immediate Turf Wars that was happening so they had this barren land all to themselves. There was no one around—it was quiet enough that all you could hear was the wind blowing beside their ear, and the nearest building was at least 15 miles away. This place was Wellston's private property, so anyone that wasn't having turf wars against the said prestigious school was trespassing. They would be charged with a fine that wasn't the kindest.

Luckily, knowing this fact, Arlo used his authority as a King to gain an advantage that normal Wellston students don't have.

"Have you made the necessary precautions? You can't be seen at all tomorrow." Arlo then tapped on the calendar app on his phone, eyes scanning over the many numbers on the screen. "The most I can stall would be for another day, then I would have to get the headmaster and authorities involved. After that, you would be wanted criminal and no matter what happens, you must not contact me." His blue eyes were piercing, he was glaring so hard that he made it impossible for Ryland to make any sort of eye contact. He then forced out another shaky nod for Arlo to continue. "I've decided to change the location where it will take place."

Arlo has gone over the plan multiple times but even now, Ryland still can't stand to listen to something like this. What he's doing... What Arlo has come up with—it's sickening. But what's even more sickening, is Ryland himself, following through with this plan like an obedient dog.

At some point, the blond was his role model—in fact, every royal was someone's role model at some point. But that fake perfect image had shattered the moment Arlo approached him with the lure of money for his mother's treatment. The way he spoke, the way he smiled, the way he taunted and insulted Ryland was something only insane people would act. He clearly enjoyed seeing Ryland struggle to find the right words to reply with.

"This will take place at John's house, two hours before school ends. You have approximately two hours to torment John as much as you want before I will arrive and invite myself inside. Do not, for whatever reason, take off your gloves. The obvious reason being that we don't want more evidence pointing at you than necessary. And the other, I don't want your marks to remain on him. You hear me?" The last sentence was more menacing than the others—perhaps his possessiveness was showing after being suppressed for so long.

"Y-yeah..." Arlo went in detail about his plan, listing several detailed and strict rules that weren't mentioned to Ryland before. Such rules included but not limited to:
