Good For You

(Chapter.37) The Aftershock

I closed my eyes and started to cry.  The man next pulled his genitals out of his pants.Next I heard a loud gunshot. I felt warm blood splatter all over me.I opened my eyes to find the man dead on the floor he had been shot in the back of the head.
“Now that I do want to apologize for. I made it clear that we wouldn’t be doing that to you. He didn’t want to listen. So he has been handled. I told you, you will be tortured and then killed but that is all and I mean it.” The man said he then walked out. I started to cry.
He then walked back into the room.
“Oh don’t cry and act like you’re a human. You have to be a sick individual.” The man snapped.
“Why do you think that?” I asked while sobbing.
“You married Ace McCoy. You must be a terrible person. Ace is like the devil’s spawn. He is evil and has no remorse. I don’t know how anyone could ever marry such a terrible person. But he will pay. When he comes to save you, you will already be dead. Then he can hurt if there are any feelings in that son of a bitch.” The man yelled. I said nothing. I knew there was no point. Next he punched me in the jaw, I then spit blood. I just cried even more.
I then passed out from the pain. 
When I opened my eyes I saw blood everywhere and I felt someone fiddling with my cuffs. Everything was blurry. I then closed my eyes again. I could hear but not speak.
“What the fuck is this bullshit? Get her out of here now. I will handle this one on my own.” Ace said. I then felt my body being moved. The next time I woke up I saw a bright light. I heard voices but I couldn’t make out who they were. I then fell back asleep.
“Alice, Alice?” A familiar voice said. I opened my eyes to find Ace standing there looking at me.
“Did I die?” I asked. 
“No you didn’t. I’m here. I don’t know what I can say to make this better. I should have been there for you way faster. They had you hidden quite well. They paid for what they did don’t worry.” Ace explained.
“You killed his wife. He wanted revenge.” I said.
“Is that what he told you? Yes we killed his wife. His wife shot one of my men instead of giving us the money we required. Therefore we killed her. If her husband would’ve given us the money like we had spoken about then she would be fine right now. His excuse for revenge is irrelevant. Now are you okay?” He asked.
“Yes I’m okay. This just isn’t how I wanted our marriage to begin.” I said. I then heard a man yelling for help in the distance.
"I know I'm so sorry. Excuse me for a minute. I need to take care of something." Ace said he then exited the curtain.
I wiggled slowly and got off of the table. I still felt quite uneasy. But I needed to know what was going on and what Ace was doing. So I tiptoed to the curtain that Ace was behind. I peeked just slightly through the curtain. I saw the boss that wanted to kill me in a metal chair with his hands cuffed behind his back. The man had hern beaten badly, he was quite bloody. Ace had a small table full of different tools and weapons. I'm guessing he was torturing the man with those items. The man yelled and cussed at Ace. He then even spit on him.
"Oh now that was a mistake, you'll regret spitting on me." Ace yelled he then slit the man's arm. 
"Are you enjoying the show?" Asher whispered with a smirk.
"No I just wanted to see what was going on." I said.
"We are just taking care of business. Now the bed is ready you need to go lay down. The doctor will be checking on you frequently." Asher explained. I obliged and headed for the bed and fell asleep quickly. 
After a few hours I was woken up by the man screaming. So I carefully got up and went to see what was going on this time. When I peeked through the curtain I saw two of the man's fingers on the floor. His hands were bleeding badly. He was screaming in agony. No one was in there but him. So I decided to walk in.
"Are you happy with your actions?" I asked the man.
"What the fuck do you want? You dumb bitch. Are you going to help me?" He asked aggressively. 
"No I'm not. Look at me I look terrible and I'm hurt because of you and your men. You put yourself here. Every decision you make has consequences. For example, you just called me a dumb bitch. So now you have a broken finger." I said.
"You really are dumb. I don't have a broken finger." He snapped.
I then took a pair of pliers and broke his finger.
"You do now, ass hole." I said. He screamed in agony and I exited the curtain to find Ace and Asher standing there looking at me.
"What the hell was that?" Ace asked.
"Well I felt bad he was in so much pain. But when I spoke to him he was rude and called me names. So I broke his finger." I responded shrugging my shoulders. 
"So my wife has a mean streak. I like it. Now go lay down I need you to get better." Ace said then kissing me on the head.  I went and laid back down. I am not the type of person to hurt someone. I hadn't planned on hurting that man. But he made me mad and in the moment it just happened. I then fell back asleep. When I woke up next I realized it was the next day. I figured I'd go check on the man. So I struggled and got out of the bed and headed to his curtain. I opened the curtain to see the man dead in the chair, he had been shot in the head. I then got scared that someone was here so I started to scream for Ace and started to cry.
"What, what is it?" Ace asked after running to me.
"I think someone is here. The man is dead. He was shot in the head." I explained while sobbing into Ace's chest. He wrapped his arms around me tightly.
"Alice, gorgeous there is no one here. We killed him. He had to pay for what he did to you. You weren't supposed to see his body. You've been through a lot lately. You really need to just rest. " Ace explained somehow sweetly.
An hour later Matthew approached me to tell me we were going home. He had some clothes for me to change into. I changed and hopped in the limousine. The whole way home I was silent. When we arrived the property was flooded with security. Matthew helped me out the car and we stopped in front of one of the security men.
"The whole property has been checked and cleared sir. It is safe to go inside. I have one of my men in every part of the house and at every entrance. We have installed a brand new security system and a brand new front gate system as well. Everything is in top top shape sir." The man explained to Matthew.
"Wonderful, this is Mrs.McCoy she has been through a ton lately. She is your main focus. She must remain safe at all times. If you or your men fuck up they will deal with Mr.McCoy. Now please make sure she is secured in bed." Matthew explained.
"Yes sir, and of course. I'll take it from here sir." The man said.
"Matthew are you leaving?" I asked.
"Yes ma'am but only for a little while. Mr.McCoy has some things he needs me to do. He will be home in a few hours. Now this brand new security team will take great care of you. Please go get some rest." Matthew explained then left.
"Come on Mrs.McCoy let's get you to bed." The man said.
"What is your name?" I asked.
"My name is Tom ma'am."
"Well Tom, I'd like to shower first." 
"Yes ma'am, but after you must get in bed." He said.
"I'm Mrs.McCoy therefore I'll do whatever I want." I snapped.
