Moth to a Flame

THIRD PERSON

Keegan opened one of the basement rooms to cover his nose from the disgusting alkaline scent. There, he saw three men lying dead on the bed. Nawalan ng emosyon ang mata niya nang makita ang tatlong babaeng patuloy na gumagalaw sa ibabaw ng mga lalaki kahit wala na itong buhay.

"What are you still doing here? Get out!" They looked at him, unsure whether to obey him or not. But he can see it, the terror and disgust in their eyes.

"H-he said not to stop even if they're d-dead," she paused before swallowing a lump in her throat. "Or else he will k-kill us." Keegan gritted his teeth.

That fucker!

"If you don't leave, I will kill you." Nagkatinginan silang tatlo at kaagad na umalis sa ibabaw ng mga lalaki. They pick up their clothes and hurriedly dressed themselves in front of him before running to escape.

Napabuntong hininga na lang siya habang nakatingin sa namumutlang katawan ng mga ito. Hindi niya alam kung namumutla ba ito dahil naubusan ng dugo sa rami ng mahahabang sugat sa katawan o dahil naubusan ito ng semilya sa ilang beses nitong pakikipagtalik sa isang araw.

But they all deserved to die after everything they did. Nilapitan niya ito at napangisi siya nang makita ang mga letrang nakasulat sa kanilang braso. 'I am a rapist' He wrote it himself using a scalpel after he brought them in the basement.

"Wrap them up and toss them in front of the nearest police station," malamig niyang utos bago lumabas ng silid.

Sunod niyang pinuntahan ay ang kuwarto kung saan nakakulong si Belladonna. He had no idea what Lovi did to her because no one is allowed to enter her room until today. But whatever that bastard did, he was hoping she got the karma she deserved.

Pagpasok niya ay tinitigan niya nang mabuti ang hitsura ng babaeng nakahandusay sa sahig. She was unrecognizable. Her hair was shaved clean, skin had multiple lacerations, her whole body was full of burns and blisters—she looks like a rotten corpse.

"What happened here?" Their private forensic doctor came in to check on her hideous body. After examining her for a few minutes, he revealed that her skin had traces of sulfur mustard gas that caused her to develop deep skin ulcers and scarring.

"And I think she was exposed too long that she went blind before her death," he added before taking pictures of her body. Lovi sure has a knack for punishing people severely. That's the only thing he's good at.

"Send her body to Del Piero's mansion so she'd have the chance to be buried together with that old hag." Hindi maiwasang mapangisi ni Keegan nang lumabas siya ng basement.

He heard of Corleone's death—and whether his death is accidental or has something to do with the incident, wala siyang pakialam dahil wala na siyang mas ikakasaya pa dahil sa wakas magkikita rin silang mag-ama sa impyerno. Now that the Five Rings has lost one of its limbs, he wondered what their next move would be.

"Keegan! Where is he?" Nabalik siya sa realidad nang makasalubong niya si Leticia. Napatingin siya sa labas ng mansyon at nakita niya ang kakalapag lang na chopper doon.

Look at her casually using a chopper as her mode of transportation.

"I don't know, he left." Pasinghal nitong sinuklay ang medyo magulo niyang buhok bago irapan ang binata.

"I need to talk to him."

"What for?"

"Are you asking because you seriously don't know?" sarkastiko nitong palatak.

"I heard that asshole has been bringing whores into the mansion?" She took a step closer and grabbed his tie before glaring at him. "And you were aware all this time?" Saglit na nakalimutan ni Keegan kung paano huminga dahil sa lapit nito sa kanya.
