BRUTAL MINDS (A DARK ROMANCE)

CHAPTER 16- A LUNATIC IN A SUIT

LENSHAW COMPANIES LTD
8:00am.

Ally you're here.
I'm sorry, got stuck in traffic.
It's fine, you're still on time. Davian said.
Let's go see your uncle?
Hmm but I must warn you, he's a grumpy old man so..
Don't worry, I know how much age can take a toll on people so don't worry, I won't upset him.
Okay let's go.

                 Davian led to way to the CEO's office, who was also his uncle. After taking the elevator to the twelfth floor, they finally got to the office. It was the only door in the  entire corridor and it was at the end of it.

Remember what we practiced okay?
I'm a Doreen agent and I'll voluntarily help recover the losses acquired from the previous business deal.
Correct.
What would you do without me right? You're welcome. Allison smiled.

Knock! Knock!!

Come In....

               Dim lit, dark themed, black and gold interiors. Allison noticed. Initially she thought nothing could compare to Davian's office but this one right here was screaming expensive luxury. She started to have a very odd feeling about this place. She felt like she had seen this décor somewhere before but where? De Ja Vu? Maybe.  The man's chair where He sat was turned against them and so He was looking outside the window not caring to look at them.

Good morning Uncle, welcome back. She could hear Davian say.
Am I Truly Welcomed?
You know you are.
What A Terrific Way To Be Welcomed Back To My Company. With An Account Loss Of Two Hundred Million.
Allison could feel her pulse racing at the sound of that awfully familiar voice. Where has she heard that voice before?
My apologies uncle but that's exactly why I'm here to rectify everything.
I So Hope You Are. The Man said, sourly as He got up and turned around.

             Dumbstruck! That was the only word to express her facial expressions as this man finally came to view. First off given Davian's height she always knew good genes reigned in his family, second this man was anything but old, how the hell was his uncle looking as young as him? And finally wasn't this her captor? The one her father was owning a fortune? This doesn't make any sense! No no no.  How the hell is this Man her boyfriend's uncle?

Let's just hope he doesn't recognize me.

And...Who Do You Have With You?
Allison Doreen. She's the entrepreneur I told you about.

Oh crap!

Their eyes met and she could see his eyebrow cork in both surprise and amusement.

Pet?

             She could hear him ask, even without actually voicing it out. Oh well! This was going to be hell of a long day, she thought as she reluctantly made her way forward with her expression of a straight face to shake hands with him.

Allison Doreen. She introduced herself.
Hades Lenshaw. He says curtly.
It...It's a pleasure to meet you sir. She stuttered, their hands clasping together.
The Pleasure Is All Mine I Guess? He said, staring her deep in the eyes, she felt as if He was actually sapping away her soul with those intimidating golden brown eyes.

             His pet was surprisingly looking different, more modest and business-like just as He had imagined she would be the first time they met. She was wearing a white sleeved dress that stopped at her knees, her wild red hair was much more in place than the last time but now He would rather have her back in those oversized pajamas, all these looked like too much of a sham to cover up the vulnerability inside of her, the only thing Allison-like were those glasses.

         Allison immediately retracted her hands as if she had just wrapped them around a snake before taking a seat along with Davian to discuss the situation at hand but the Man seemed bored throughout the entire proceedings and completely uninterested.
