Seth Gecko
"I am not your enemy. And I am not your friend. I am simply here for what is mine.", My knuckles begin to turn a bland white as my rather large hand takes a tighter hold on the pistol. I'd known that this deal was a bad one from the start, I'd felt it from the beginning. Not only did the lady who lived here have a gun, but she also had a baby too, and that was not what I wanted to hear when I was robbing a house. The cries of the baby were getting louder and louder, echoing through the long hallway which is where I was stood. Two of my men behind me, also holding guns at the lady.
"Please! Don't take the money! It's for my baby! We need it! She needs it!", The lady cried helplessly, And I swear I felt my chest tighten at the girls cry for help. However, I quickly shake away any second thoughts I have about taking this money, because this is who I am, this is what I do.
"I understand that this was once your money, but due to the unwritten circumstances, it now belongs to me.", I reply, my voice laced thickly with confidence even though I don't feel a shred of confidence right now. I'm a 16 year old, who knows what I feels like to lose everything. I lost my mother a year ago due to cancer, my fathers still here but at the same time he's never here. He's always drinking,smoking,taking drugs, the perfect role model of course.And this, this is the only way I can fend for my family,or what's left of it. My grades are the worst of the worst,and I can't fix them.
"Please!",The lady cried out again, I couldn't take it anymore. I begin walking backwards, the gun still on her. Then, As I take my second step back towards the front door I see the woman reach down for her gun that I made her drop, and that's when I automatically pull the trigger. It was instinct,I had no other choice, she brought this upon herself. At least that's what I tell myself.
"Shit!Seth!",Callum shouts behind me, that was my first kill, and still to this day I remember the sound her body made when it dropped lifelessly to the floor. The blood poured out, and all I could do was stare. The babies cries stopped for a moment when the gun went off, but it wasn't long until it started again. And that's when we left,without the money. I couldn't take it. I couldn't,I'd already taken her life.
12 years later and I'm no different. The only thing different is I'm a well known business man, but no one knows me, no one knows what I do. I can't stop,I've tried but I can't.
"You don't love the money! You love stealing it! It's about winning,isn't it?",That's what my brother said to me years ago. And he was right. I don't love the money, I love the thrill of stealing it, I love the feeling of being in control, the feeling off being powerful. Because as much as no one likes to admit it, I am powerful, I am in control. That's just who I am.
Even in my known job I'm powerful,I'm a CEO.I'm always in control. I'm always giving out orders, and people are always following them. Always.
"Okay,Listen up,this is going to be real simple,Richie and I will close our deal with the guy from Mexico,and after that you work to find another deal that we can fuck over.",I look up at my assistant, she's one of my new ones, she's in her early 20's, tall,skinny,and blonde, real sweet but she's also real hot. And If i wasn't such an honourable worker, I probably would've asked her out by now.
"Yes Sir.",She nods before scurrying off out of my office, closing the door behind her. I hate to see her leave, but I love to watch her go. Once the door closes,I lean back in my seat and rub my hands against my thighs, thinking for a moment. That was before my door swings open,My hand automatically moves to my gun tucked into my pants before my eyes lay on Richie,my brother.
"Shit Richie.",I mutter, my hand moving away from my gun onto my lower face, rubbing my stubble. Richie's my younger brother who works with me in my job, but also he's my main man in my gang. Let me tell you a little about my brother, he's freaking insane. Literally. He's a physcotic killer,but he's family.
