Louis’ POV
Everyone went silent for a moment when Master appeared before them, me following shortly behind.
"Master, these are the guests that you invited to spend the week; Liam, Niall, and Zayn." Harry introduced the boys and reminded the Master. I looked at the boys and noticed how kind looking they were.
"The game of life is truly cruel, but the Master is crueler than it all." I thought to myself. Harry grabbed my wrist to remind me to keep focused. He’s been here longer than I have, so he understands how cruel Master will be towards me if I mess up.
"Ah," the Master sighs, while smiling at the boys cheerfully, but not really. His smiles are all for show, to lure his victims. "Welcome boys. I trust the trip was enjoyable."
"Yes sir, but that private road of yours is far too long. Why is it like that?" Niall asked. Zayn slapped Niall's shoulder.
"Maybe because he wants privacy, goofball!" Zayn laughed.
"Forgive him, sometimes he can be...Rather slow, but not to worry! We're training him."
"That's quite fine! No problems with that." The Master replied with a laugh. He turned to Harry and I.
"Harry, Louis, please guide us to the dining room so that I may discuss business with these fine young lads." He ordered happily, but his eyes were cold and cruel.
"Yes Master." We replied in time, and so we guided Master and the guests to the dining room.
~~~~~~
The Victorian styled dining room was lit with an unruly amount of candles. The elegantly long mahogany dining table shined back the reflection of the flames. Even with all the candles about, the room was still chilly in my opinion.
The boys and the Master sat down and Harry began pulling out the meals from the kitchen and placing them on the table. I served the boys a cesar salad, filet mignon and a bit of chicken, and for dessert, a slice of freshly baked Red Velvet cake.
"Okay girls, that will be all." Master said, basically ordering us out.
"Can't they stay?" Niall whined.
"Yeah, can't they? We could use the company." Liam added. I could see the smirk on Master's face. He was going to do what he had done last time and every time before.
"I'm afraid they won't be able to join us this evening, but maybe some other time. We have business we have to discuss, remember?" Master replied. The boys pouted as Harry and I left the room.
~~~~~~
As we were walking down the hall, I could see the sadness in Harry's eyes. He noticed my gaze and tried to cover his face slightly with his luscious chocolate locks.
"Harry..." My voice trailed off as I placed my hand on his shoulder.
"He's a monster." He whispered, allowing his tears to stream down his cheeks with no fear. I couldn't stand this anymore. It's driven both Harry and I to the brink, and it's also been hurting innocent people. I grabbed Harry’s shoulders and made him face me.
"Harry, you know exactly what I'm about to say." I looked him dead in the eye. He started right back and from that moment, we shared the same determination.
"We're not gonna let him win." We said at the same time.
Our mission is clear...

Hello lovelies! I decided to update a bit early this time, even though it's only like two days but whatever. I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
What did you think of it? And the Master? Do you guys have a thought as to who it may be?
I'll probably add more to this authors note later.
But please, please, please make sure that you guys vote and comment. It truly means a lot to me. And yeah.
My favorite comment will also get a dedication for this chapter and maybe even a sneak peak for the next one.

I love all of you, my beautiful crazy mofos!
