Boss's Right-Hand Lover

CHAPTER ONE

The smell of blood nauseated me as I stepped into the basement.

What the heck? My brows furrowed in confusion as I looked around the room.

Guts, organs, pieces of shredded clothes, along with dried blood were all over the floor.

Further across the room to my right was one of our crew members, Grunt, cleaning up his tools of torture.

Grunt is our?.......what you would say, executor? Well more like a human butcher to me. Whenever Xander tortured hostages, Grunt's in charge of the cleaning or usually given the command to do the job himself. I walked over to Grunt carefully avoiding the stuff on the floor from sticking to my shoes.

"Hey Eva," Grunt said once he noticed my presence. I smiled at him.

"Hey buddy, what you up to?" I said as I looked over his tools of torture. From the color of the bloody stains on them. I could tell it wasn't long since he used them.Grunt grinned at me,

"Oh you know, just cleaning tools after a job well done."

"Oh really? And who were these used on?"

"The main stuff are from a guy who tried to betray Xander. The pieces of clothes are from some girl Jake brought over. Said he wanted her begging and in tears," I furrowed.

"Jake?"He nodded.

"She dead or alive?"

"Beats me. He left with her when I was done,"

"Poor girl was so scared she could have died on the spot," Grunt snickered. I immediately glared at him in anger.

"And you did what Jake asked you to do?"

"Yep," Then he noticed the look on my face.

"He said it was an order from the boss, so I was just taking orders," he quickly added.

Why wasn't I informed then? I looked over at Grunt.

"I want info on this girl immediately. Tell Aiden to give it to me before tonight," I said in a cold tone. He nodded and immediately went to do what I had ordered. I sighed, taking one last look around the room.

Who could this girl be? What was her crime? I thought as I exited the room.
