Athena’s Pov

I squinted my eyes trying to see through the darkness in the shed. To my surprise, there wasn't a single person here. I was confused where Ares went and turned on my flash to look around. 

The surroundings looked extra normal, nothing out of the ordinary. Until I spotted a wooden plank on the floor with a handle attached to it. 

My pulse raced with excitement and fear as I lifted the plank to reveal a staircase leading down into the basement. This tiny shed isn't so small after all. 

I decided it's better to record the evidence of their probably illegally earned wealth, so I pressed record on my phone which also acted as my torch. 

I took a step down and an unsettling feeling set in the pit of my stomach. Something was really off and I should go back. But the curiosity was too strong and I continued my descent. 

My steps were incredibly quiet and I even avoided breathing too loud so no one notices me. The spiral staircase led me down to the first floor which was heavily lit. I peeked inside and spotted a couple of guards and a few people wearing white coats who looked to be doctors. They would definitely not allow me to roam around so I continued downwards. 

The second floor had a hallway. I didn't spend a lot of time there as it only had a few huge rooms labeled gym, boxing, training, shooting, shower and changing room, all probably for their staff. But I don't know why they made this place so sketchy like it's some criminal organization. When I heard a couple of people talking somewhere nearby I quickly descended to the last floor. 

This one scared me. Unlike the other two floors, it was completely isolated. There wasn't a single soul here. And it even had the most dim light that I could barely locate my way with as I had turned off the flash to keep a low profile. 

The whole place looked like something out of a nightmare but I still went further in. 

What bothered me the most was that it smelled like a shithole. The urge to puke was getting stronger with each step I took. I couldn't understand how this was part of such a luxurious mansion. 

I spotted a huge room right around the corner and saw light coming through the slight gap of the door. As I neared it I could hear a familiar authoritative voice saying something. 

When I looked inside, I understood why the whole floor was empty, because all the guards here were attending a meeting conducted by the Zephyr Konstantinos himself. 

“I’ve assigned new roles according to their competence and I believe no one will doubt my decision.” He told the guards who intently listened to him. “We’ll be back by Monday, until then I believe you can keep everything in order. I don't want what happened at the North facility to be repeated…”  

Since I was getting bored by this security speech which didn't feel like some top secret information I should know, I decided to move on. To my shock, the right hallway was filled with cells. It literally had prison cell vibes.  

I tried calming my nerves and telling myself these must be used for something else. Or maybe these were already built before the brothers bought the mansion. 

When I crossed the hallway and turned to the next one, I heard a grunt. Before I could fully understand what it was, I heard it again. As I stepped forwards the painfully moans were getting louder. 

For a moment I thought maybe someone's having sex but it didn't sound like it. It sounded like torture and my legs took me towards it. 

It was a cell, larger than others. I slowly stepped towards it, trying my best to hide myself behind the brick walls. My phone was still in my hand, recording every second.
