A.S.S.A 16 [Editing]

Chapter 24

I'm the only one allowed to give me a tough time.

16's POV

My tongue began to bleed from how hard I'd been biting it. Frustration was making me miserable. It felt as though anytime i reached the top of a high mountain a higher one appeared in front of me.

"Sisi y-your bleeding" Nina pointed out.

I used the sleeves of my shirt, actually Damien's shirt, to wipe off the blood spilling from the sides of my mouth..

"Let's go to the address" I said and unconsciously bit my tongue again, it was a bad habit I adopted at the institute, whenever I was being tortured or was having a hard time, I would bite my tongue till it bled to distract me from the other pain I was experiencing

A/N: Masochism is very toxic, you shouldn't hurt yourself for any reason, but if you find yourself doing so compulsively......please seek help.

"We can't go there now" Damien reprimanded me

"Why?!" I glared

"I just got a call from Murray, he has a new supply of serione" he stated

"So what?!"

"So what? Have you forgotten our first goal?! to take down the institute?" He gave me a 'are you stupid?' look

"That was your goal" I hissed in anger.

He looked hurt for a brief moment but he covered it with a snarl.

"Do what ever the heck you want then, I'm done with you" he said and threw the paper that had the address at me, then he walked away.

"Damien!" Andre called but he didn't turn back.

"Let me follow him!" Nina said like she was asking and Andre gave her a nod, she ran after him and in a few seconds they were both out if our sight.

"16...."

"How can we get here?" I asked and picked up the address from the floor.

"A taxi....probably"

"You don't have to come with me" I said emotion void in my tone

"Well...i want to" he said with that killer smile of his and I couldn't bite back my smile.

We arrived at the address hours later, it was a mansion on the mountains, it looked like how they'd describe a palace.

"This....is the place? are you sure?" I asked uncertain

"Pretty sure"

We rang the door bell several time but there was no sign of a response, we resorted to knocking hard with a stone but still no response.
