Arima Kousei POV:
For a very long time, it was a huge surprise for me that when I had woken up, I wasn't on chains anymore and I am lying on a soft bed. It was only moments later when I had woken up that the man who took me entered the cabin where he locked me in. I thought it was my father but when I saw his scar on his neck, I knew it wasn't my father. "Why do you look like my father? Who are you?"
"I'll keep calling you 'Arima' as long as you are with me," he told me. "Call me 'Jupiter'. I can't trust you with my real name yet. I am related to you and your father. I am sure August told you about me. I am your father's half-brother."
"Mr. J- Jupiter." I gulped. "What do you want with me?"
"I'll introduce you as my son in Las Vegas," he told me. "I won't kill you if you cooperate and adapt in my world. No one must know that you are Takahiko's son. You'll keep your name but I would be giving you my surname. My men are currently making a fake birth certificate in the USA by now."
"Cooperate and adapt in your world?" I asked. "Then... Then that means—"
He grinned as he holds my neck tight. "You will obey me and call me father, and you will be trained to become like me as the arbitrator between all gangster groups of the Underworld. You are my heir to my throne."
"Why do I have to follow you?" I asked him with my hands clenched. "Your people almost killed me!"
He pointed a gun at me which made me shiver in fear. My heart thumped so dangerously and I could hear it knocking through my bones. "Don't forget that I am still holding you hostage!"
"You're holding me because of my father!" I asked him. "If you are his brother, why take me away from my father?"
"I want that spoiled rich kid to feel what I had felt long ago when your grandfather never accepted me in his family. I want him to lose his grandson," he answered me. "I have no grudge over your father. I have a grudge towards your grandfather! It was only that Cassiopeia and I know each other that I was able to finally take my vengeance. They had always called me 'Boss' as I have many connections on a lot of other syndicates all over the world."
He tossed me a cocaine cigarette and I gulped by seeing it. I don't want to be addicted to it. I know that I loved smoking it when June forced me to have it but I am still sane enough to not overdose myself. I know that I had to control myself from taking it but seeing it makes me itch to take it. "I don't want to be an addict. If I keep using that cocaine, I'll be dependent on it! I'm begging you, take me back home."
"I know that you liked the high you got from that cocaine," he cackled at me. "Take it, Kousei. Use it."
I closed my eyes and slowly, I took it upon my mouth as ordered as I don't want to be shouted at but when he lit it up, he watched me smoke and abuse its effects on my brain. I didn't even care even if it tasted like rubber as it makes me forget that I am trapped inside a flying box. He smiled at me and ruffled my hair while I was taking up cocaine.
"From now on," he said as he takes off the eyeglasses on my face. "Call me 'Father'."
Fear overwhelmed me.
I knew that if I don't say it, he'll be angry.
I have to keep him happy so I can survive.
"Father," I said as I make some circle smoke while I was being held, hostage. "What about my friends? Will I be able to see them again?"
"You won't see them again for the next six years," he answered me. "You don't need them. Strength and power are what you should seek."
I clenched my left hand while I stand up away from the bed. I stared at the clouds while I'm still inside the cabin. My life won't ever go back to normal, isn't it? He wanted me inside his syndicate and call him my father. He used my father's debt to Cassiopeia as a reason to have me. He already had his revenge against those who had hurt him. His revenge was taking me away from them.
"Forgive me, Mr. Jupiter. I would still want to leave and escape," I told him. "You'll have to torture me completely so I can be loyal to you."
"I don't need you to be loyal to me," he told me. "I want you to fear me so you would keep obeying me."
