Chapter 19- Reprisal

~25 days ago (when you were at the speak easy)~
John's POV:

I've been working as a bouncer for Mimzy for quite a while. It's just extra cash and it pays well, plus free booze.

All I had to do was stand there and look tough. If someone acted out of hand though, I would chuck them out. I've built a reputation around myself and people don't tend to mess with me and my gang. It's a family business but I need to lay low right now. That why I got a job at that little cafe. I have to keep up the act.

I heard a knock and opened the door.

Alastor was a regular guest here, he is friends with Mimzy.
Tonight he showed up with y/n.

I didn't expect her to be the type of person to go to these places.

"John is that you?! I didn't know you worked as a bouncer too?" Y/n smiled up at me and I gave her a slight nod and held the door open for them.

~time skip~

I heard shattering of glasses and out stepped my brother, highly intoxicated and agitated.

"What did you do Charles" I threatened and threw him out.

"That fucking radio *hic* prick told me to leave" He replied and looked sickly.

"Why?" I asked angrily.

"I was just complementing the gal *hic*" He smiled. He pushed me but I didn't move.
His feeble attempts to make me move was laughable.
"Just because I'm older than you doesn't mean I'm your baby sitter. You can't just go around touching women expecting them to like it. I can't believe I'm related to you AND You can't play the family card whenever you are in trouble now fuck off and leave. You have a deal to make tomorrow remember?" I furrowed my brows at him and my tone was threatening.

"Fuck *hic* you" He stumbled away.

~Small time skip~

Alastor walked out with his usual smile but looked a bit irritated. He hurried away searching for something.

A few minutes after y/n walked out.

"John did you see where Alastor went?" She demanded and had an anxious glance.

I pointed in his direction and she walked away to find him.
I heard faint laughter and a gasp. And a click clack of woman's shoes. Y/n was running away from something.

Should I go help? If My idiotic brother caused this...

I huffed and rushed over. I saw the back of Alastor sprinting towards y/n. As I looked down I saw...

"Charles?!" I rushed over and his body was all covered with blood which was still pouring out.

His jaw was broken and a smile was carved in. His eyes lids were severed and I could barely recognize his face. His body was limp and cold.

Alastor did this, who else could it be?

I heard y/n's voice begging to not die but my mind was too foggy to comprehend what was going on. I sat down holding my brother.

"I'm going to kill and make sure you hurt for a very long time Alastor." I whispered to myself. My voice was harsh and I heard a car starting.

As a glared in the direction, I saw alastor holding y/n and placing her in the back of the car.

My fist tightened. All I could feel was pure rage and regret.

Did he murder y/n too? That poor girl, she was the least annoying in that cafe.

As Alastor drove away I carried my deceased brothers body to my gangs warehouse. I entered banging on the doors and they were all aghast with the sight of our dead relative and friend.

"Who did this." One asked and broke the silence.

"Alastor." That was all I said.

~one week time skip~

I presume y/n is dead. She hasn't been seen since that night. We all planned to capture Alastor when he would be drunk at the speakeasy but he hasn't been anywhere apart from the radio station. We had no openings or chances to get him.

~time skip to when you returned to the cafe~

I heard William and Mary shouting excitedly at the sight of ... y/n.

How is she alive? She seems normal like nothing happened?

"...It was just a family emergency... " I over heard Y/n say.

Why is she lying?

~one week Time skip~

Alastor came every morning to have his coffee. At first I thought It was a threatening tactic but he seemed genuinely delighted to see her.

Does he like her? Is that the reason she's still alive? Intresting...

I silently hid behind a door when I heard Mary pull y/n into the back of the cafe, Wanting to ask her about Alastor.

I listened in on their conversation. "...Okay okay I might like him a little bit...He totally likes you back..."

I was correct. I know exactly what to do now.

I left work early to go tell the guys the new plan.

~small time skip~

"So as you know y/n is alive. I know why he let her go. He likes her...more than friends. She likes him too. Find out where she lives, she leaves late tonight. Hide in an alley and watch her. We can break in, take her and keep her here. I bet Mr Radio would come looking for her. It's perfect." I explained and they all smiled menacingly.

"You three can go find out tonight" I ordered to my cousins. One was tall and skinny and wore his signature brown flat cap. The other was large and short with a stretched suit. The last was large and muscular.

I took a lighter and a cigar and took a long puff.
"Let's make him pay" I chuckled.

A/N
I'm hoping this chapter isn't too confusing with all the backward and forward time jumps.

Also I killed Gonavannion.

Byeeee 💕
