Spencer's POV
We finally reach the house. There was at least five men were surrounding Courtney and Luca. She still hadn't spoken a word and was still crying. Why? Why is it always the hot girl is the traitor?
Although we hadn't spoken, the gang has come to a mutual agreement that Courtney is a traitor. But how didn't we notice before? She must of had some good makeup on. She's been able to cover it for a while.
Immediately the whole gang went into the lounge room. We all sat on the ground or the couches. Courtney still had Luca's gun against her back but didn't have the other men.
She stood at the back with Luca until boss made her sit across from him. The fear on her face made me smirk. She's just a joke! A fake! I can't believe it! What do we do with her?
"Where did the tattoo come from?" Boss asks. "Who put it on you?"
She stays silent and looks away. Her hands were still zip tied behind her and Luca's gun was resting against her shoulder.
"Hey Courtney, I think it's about time you officially meet some more people in our Australian based Italian mafia group."
He gets up and grabs her arm. She follows him to the front of the room and stands next to him.
"See that group over. Hunter and Callum are on the left. They are the ones who kidnapped you. The rest of people in that group are pretty good tortures but I don't think you would like it too much if I sent you down to the basement with Mark. Or even Ben. Any of the fifteen can make you talk but you really need to watch out for Mark and Ben."
He forces her head over to the other side. "These guys over here are in charge of weaponry and drugs. I won't go through all of them but they can also make you talk. Although they focus on drugs and attacks, any one of them can and will get answers from you as well. Especially Matt. You really don't want to be trapped down in a basement with him."
He forces her to look straight in front of her. "Then of course Spencer is my second and my nephew, Luca is my third and Carlo is my boss. They all have pretty good methods to make people talk. Ashton is head of the medical team but he also has a few ways to inflict pain on people without killing them. Then of course there is Amy, who would make you wish you were dead if she ever found out you were a traitor. I also have a few tricks up my sleeve when it comes to people talking. So what's it going to be? Talk or a visit to the basement with mhm. I don't know. Ben."
Courtney's POV
I just gulp every time he introduces the men. I wasn't really paying that much attention till I heard something interesting.
"Then of course Spencer is my second and my nephew." I didn't hear anything after that. Just trying to make me talk. But he is Spencer's uncle? That is just uncle goals! Who would put their seventeen year old nephew in second command of the Italian mafia. But why doesn't Spencer call me uncle, not boss. What is his name? Everyone just calls him boss! Kinda annoying.
"So what's it going to be? Talk or a visit to the basement with mhm. I don't know. Ben." Their boss asks snapping me out of my thoughts.
Who was Ben again? Was he one of the best torturers? Or in charge of weapons and drugs? I don't really care to be honest. I need to think of a coverup story. I've got it!
"So Courtney how did you get that tattoo? This is the last time I'm asking." Their boss threatens.
"I got drunk and wasn't thinking," I mumble. "I'm not very proud of it." That was well said Courtney. You should be proud for not stuttering.
"Alright Ben, she's all yours for an hour. Try not to kill her until you get the truth."
Well he obviously doesn't believe me. I have to make it more believable.
"But that's the truth. I got drunk with friends and we all got stupid tattoos."
"Courtney don't take me for a fool! I know that's a gang tattoo and I know what gang it's from! I want to know why you got it? How you got it? Who gave it to you? But you won't tell me that, so your Ben's for an hour. Oh and Ben, take duct tape, I'm not in the mood to hear screaming."
Well he's lovely! I need another coverup story. Think, Courtney, think! You have a brain for a reason.
Suddenly someone grabs me. I try remembering who he was but it didn't come to me. Was he Ben? Or Mark? Or even Matt? I have no idea! Why bother introducing them when I won't remember?
The person drags me out of the room, by the hair, and walks into the basement. Definitely Ben. I haven't thought of a cover story yet! Think, think, think! I can't think!
Ben's POV
I pull her down into the basement and kick her against the wall.
"Do you mind?" She snaps. "I'm trying to think of a cover story and you're just disturbing my thoughts!"
Did she really just say that? She..? What? What just happened? Get in your game, Ben!
"I really don't care. Now we do this the simple way or the not so simple way. Either one is fine with me but you might like the second option too much."
She just shrugs. Shrugged! She's going to be torture and she's shrugging? Is she planning some surprise attack? Get your head in! We need answers!
I walk over to her and pull her against the pole. I grab the cuffs and attach them to her wrists. I tie her legs to the straps on the ground and walk over to the cupboard.
Where should I start? Removing fingernails? Fingers? Toes? I grab the duct tape from the cupboard and tear off a bit. I shove a strip over her mouth and walk back to the cupboard. Where should I start?
I was going to start with ripping off her fingernails when Spencer comes down the stairs.
"Capo non vuole di rimuovere dita, unghie o dei piedi. Non ucciderla. Oltre a questo, lei è tutto tuo." (Translation: Boss doesn't want you to remove fingers, nails or toes. Don't kill her. Apart from that, she's all yours.)
Well that's boring! Wouldn't hurt to break her arm. Well, it wouldn't hurt me.
"Essere permesso io rompere le ossa?" (Translation: Can I break bones?)
"Essere mio ospite," he replies with a smirk. "We also need to get the blue hair dye out of her hair. Once we get answers just kill her." (Translation: Be my guest.)
I turn back to Courtney, who was looking at the ground and I smirk. This is going to get interesting!
***
Anyway, the picture at the top is Courtney's tattoo^ Just imagine more redness.
Why do you think Courtney has that tattoo? Is she really working for another gang? Will they get their answers? Will they kill Courtney?
Sorry for the shortness (is that even a word?) of this chapter. I'm trying to draw out the reason why Courtney has the tattoo. Don't hate me.... too much. And I also didn't want to go into that information about Courtney's torture.
