The Lion's Den

The Lion's Den:

Adham sat with the 'men' who did everything dirty that can be done and had to act like one of them and fit in. In the end that's his whole role, socialize, get the information, send the information and so on and so forth. They were all sitting in the dirty room in the basement of the "Lion's Den" as they call it. It was a modern castle in an unhabituated area far from the city, in the middle of nowhere.

The Lion of course stayed in a place that no one could enter or visit except few selected persons. Adham's attention was peeked when the guys started talking about "some college girl murder".

"I heard the Lion had a secret plan for the college drug dealer and ordered him to kill some college girl because she knew too much according to him." The bulky bald man, Jackson, said in a whisper.

"What the young fellow doesn't know though is that everything was recorded for The Lion" Answered him the forty year old man, Alex.

What they all didn't know was that Adham was recording everything and their useless "gossip" will send them to hell. No one knew why some small deals and illegal transfers would suddenly be known by the police and stopped in the right time. Men working for The Lion were falling one after another and he was agitated trying to understand why. He would never guess though that it all came from the small dirty room in the basement. They would never guess that it was from the very loyal kid that they had 'raised', Adham.
