The Demons Inside. [ZM AU]

Ch: 08 || London?

[Max]

I paced back and forth in the den we've made a home in Canada. Danny was sleeping peacefully on the couch, after a long night of finding information of my former friends. I have to admit for an annoying broken kid, he's certainly faithful. Like a puppy.

"I wanna go London." in walks Becky, swinging around a knife between her fingertips. Don't ask me why she's holding a knife; she's freaking crazy. She's a good fighter though, not going to lie about that.

"I've already said no, Becky. No means no, doesn't it? Why are you trying to push me for?!" I glared at her and she simply rolls her venom filled blue eyes back at me.

"Yeah well, how come Lou gets to go anywhere she wants?! Bloody favouritism!" she suddenly hissed at me, her eyes were practically shooting me icicle cold looks. She has anger issues. She changes emotions rather quickly too. She's useful, though. I wouldn't want to lose her.

"No. She's on a mission to break some hearts and get well needed money for us all. You know how we work."

She nods her head reluctantly, not meeting my intense glare. She does know better then to challenge me when I'm angry.

"So stop questioning my authority, do you understand?!"

She curses loudly before throwing the sharp dagger that was once in her hands at the hard walls behind me. It missed her ear by a small millimetre. I didn't flinch because nothing scares me. Not anymore anyway.

"Nice talking to you too, beautiful." I chuckled as she threw up her dominant finger at me storming out the room.

Such a lovely girl.

"Hey boss." Aaron smirks greeting me with a fist bump, flinging himself down on the opposite black leather sofa. His brown eyes were sparkling, that only happens when he has good news to share.

"Found out where Malik's mother is. She's still in Bradford. Malik's left her alone. No protection whatsoever. Not that I can see anyway." he informs me with pride in his voice because this information is well needed.

I raised an eyebrow at him. That doesn't sound like Zayn at all. He wouldn't dream to leave the woman who gave birth to him and raised him up through that terrible past he's had, alone... That's as crazy as leaving the girl he's in love with alone! There has to be some sort of protection... One of the guys?

"You need to look harder. That doesn't seem right at all. He would put protection on her. Look harder, Aaron. We need to find him and the others." I instruct him and unlike Becky, he obeys straight away, getting up and leaving the room with his mobile to his ear.

"Sweetheart. It's not you. It's your sex. It's not good enough for me. Yeah-yeah, whatever. Delete my number. Bye." shaking his head and stuffing his one of many mobiles into his low riding jeans, Brandon enters the room. He keeps different phones for different reasons. Business and Pleasure.

He nods in acknowledgement to me, "just broke up with another bimbo," he informs me and I chuckle in return. Tell me something new.

"Good for you, mate." I nod approvingly. Girl's need to be taught who's boss. We don't need them though.

My old friends used to agree with me... then they all slowly changed, starting to get a heart. When my leader fell in love I knew I couldn't continue to stay in that crap gang. They would all slowly change and no longer be the rebels we all once were.

"So. What's new here?" Brandon shoved Danny carelessly off the sofa, laying down on it himself. I looked at Danny who stirred slightly frowning on the hard cold floorboards but carried on sleeping. He must be so exhausted. Ha.

"Still looking for Malik." I sighed, leaning back on the leather arm chair that I'm currently sitting on, with my arms behind my head.

"Still? Man, if you want, I'll march into London myself and look for that prick? What did you say that cow's name was--that girl?"

"Sophia Carter."

"Yeah, her. I'll destroy her. That what you want, right?"

Is that what I want? I want the gang to see the power I have now. I want them to see how I'm so much better without them. I want them to see that all this time they were keeping someone who had potential to be a greater leader then Zayn ever was. The boys always had faith in Zayn, though. It was only me who could see all his flaws. To them he was a God.

"Nah. Not yet anyway. You seriously want to go to London? I can arrange for Louisa and you to work together, and stuff?" the idea wasn't terrible actually. It could go well. Two minds are better then one--not as great as mines, but hey ho.

"Yeah. Of course, bro. I'd do anything to ruin people's lives. You know how I work. Seeing people miserable is a bonus for me. It gives me a lovely feeling in my stomach, yanno?" he chuckled darkly, and I smirked back at him knowing exactly what he meant.

"Then it's settled. You'll go up to London, meet up with Louisa and things will work from there." I shake the confident, tall young male's hand firmly. He's so full off himself, he knows he's great and he's not afraid to show it.

For a nineteen year old, he's certainly proven himself worthy in society. He's smart, cunning and rather good looking too. He has features that every guy in the world needs. If only there are more Brandon's in the world. I would be the most powerful guy in the world. Imagine a minion army of them.

My dream seems to be like Niall's was. He wanted to make people feel the pain he felt throughout his childhood. I just want people to have fear of me, it would make me dominant in life. Money is a bonus that comes with fear. I do like money-but it doesn't buy happiness.

"She won't even know what's hit her." Brandon smirks at me one last time before he heads up the stairs to pack his suitcases for the flight.

Brandon is rich. He can afford everything he sets his eyes on. His parents left everything to him as he was their only child. He killed them both and he doesn't feel any pain or guilt because of that. I admire that. The guy is strong minded.

Unlike Zayn.

Zayn was mentally destroyed ever since we first met him. His decisions maybe were good, but they're not ruthless and sly as Brandon's are.

Oh Sophia. Watch out, princess.
