STOP THIS INSTANT

Wow!

   She followed the man, including the other bodyguards as well, getting to the elevator and entered inside as it closed.

When they got to the location, the elevator cleared and they all came out and went towards a brown glamorous door Lilith knew at that moment that this should be his office

The man opened the door, as they walked in, Lilith was horrified at what she saw and looked around, seeing a lot of men sitting on a couch with drinks in their hands and some of them were on a sofa and they seemed to be about fifteen of them and while their boss, Mr Aldan sat at the middle of everyone, smoking Indian hemp, just staring a certain man with a calm attitude but gloaming.

    The man, who Aldan was staring at, was clamped to the chair with his legs also attached underneath the chair, he seemed like he was in his late thirties and Lilith wondered what the man had done for him to be tied to a chair, are they using him for fun or entertainment.

"Please help me. I promise you, I will finish the payment and if I don't do so, you can do whatever you want with me ok. I promise you, please." He pleaded with Aldan with tears running down his face.

   "That was what you said the last time which was two months ago and now you are here spilling some stupid stuff at me huh." He said and smirked at him, still taking a smoke. "Beat him up,' he ordered mercilessly.

   The guards began to whip and kick his butt at him and didn't even care how much blood he was losing, the bruises he was getting and how badly injured and swollen he was to them. As they dealt with him, he kept screaming in pain and pleading with them to stop what they were doing to him and that he was ready to do anything with them and try as much as possible to come up with the money he took from them as a loan.

   Still, they ignored him.

 Lilith was so sickened with what she was seeing and was almost on the brink of tears when she saw how they were beating the man up. She wanted to scream, tell them off and stop them from going any further, beating him but she couldn't and if she did, she would be in big trouble. How will she be able to save someone when she can't even save herself and her family? This is why she didn't want to come to a place like this and what can she do about it. Hasn't she promised herself that she was going to pull herself together and endure everything? After all, she was also doing this for her family and it was just a week and she will be out of here any time soon anyway. Once she leaves him, she will never think of seeing him ever again and they will go their separate ways.

   "Stop,' Aldan ordered and the guards stopped at that moment and Aldan faced the man. "You've delayed me for a month now."

  "Please sir, I will do anything for you, I promise you that, please." He pleaded and cried for a couple of minutes and the reaction in which Aldan was quiet made Lilith think he was going to show some human sympathy to him or so, she thought. However, she was wrong and what he did next baffled her and her mouth gaped open.

   "Are you sure you will do anything for me?" He said mockingly and showed an evil expression, appearing on his face.

  "Ye…yes, I would do anything for you, I…I…promise." The man stuttered. Seeing Aldan's impression was scaring the shit out of the man.

   "According to what I heard,' he began. "You have a very beautiful daughter, no, yes, three beautiful daughters and your wife is pretty young too…" He emphasized. He was dressed in an expensive black suit and black shoes fitting his skin, which made him so handsome.

   No, no, no,' he shook his head. "Not my daughters, not my wife, please, leave them out of this. They have nothing to do with it, I'm begging you, please." He cried out.

  "You are owing me a lot of money and you are saying that your family can't even pay for it."

   "Yes, they can't pay for it, please, let me do it. Put it on me, the punishment, the blame, everything, put it on me and I will make sure, I settle you, I promise." He assured him.

   Lilith was almost on the brink of hope when he said. "Oh, my! That's such a pity, I see. Well, if you want me to take the blame, the punishment and everything on you, I will do so," He said.

   The man continued to beg Aldan. "Please, please, I'm begging you, I will never disappoint you, I swear." 

  "Oh, I see! That will be pretty nice to hear from you." He smoked the last drop and quenched it on a little silverware.

  "He is pitiful indeed.' A young man who seemed in his late twenties uttered. He seemed quite tall, even though he was sitting down on a fluffy large couch while laughing. He had blonde hair, blue and yellow eyes and was also dressed in a suit. That was strange, what kind of eyes was that or did he put some contacts in his eyes. He seemed quite muscular and also had this white flawless skin. Where has she seen him before, she wondered and he also resembled Aldan too. Could he be his brother or…

     "Bring them over here,'' he strictly ordered and the bodyguards left a few minutes later, he brought over a woman and three beautiful girls. They were crying and begging for their father's life and also for their life. Lilith was surprised, did he want to harm those innocent children and his wife. 

   Oh no!

   "Now, take a look over your family,' he calmly said and Aldan faced his bodyguards. "How much will it be enough to sell all these people?" He inquired.

  "It wouldn't even be up to fifty million dollars, sire." One of the bodyguards replied.

  "Or it won't even be up to twenty million dollars. Am I right?" 

  "Yes, sire." He answered back.

  "Good,' he nodded. "Good. It will be better to tear them apart sell their kidneys, all sorts of things that had to be sold which will bring my money back to me, including the interest with the property he used as collateral and make sure you get the documents to his mansion and sell it for a big amount of money and also add his cars too,' he proudly nodded. "That will make up for the money he is owing me, am I right?" 

    "Yes, sir. You are precise, it will make up for the money he had taken as a loan sir." He gave a little bow in front of him.

  "Wow! Perfecta! He exclaimed in Spanish. "That money will be a jackpot and yet quite loaded too. The business is…" He paused when he saw the man urinating on his body and shivering.

   "Ewwwww, that's so disgusting," The young man uttered disgustingly and Aldan burst out laughing at the man. "I didn't know you could wet yourself that way, composed yourself and not be an embarrassment to your family," Aldan remarked. 

    "Please,'' he sorrowfully shouted at the top of his voice, his eyes going red, filled with tears and his nose running. "Why are you doing this to me? My family wasn't the one that borrowed the money, it was me that took the loan from you, why are you involving them in this, they have nothing to do with this. They are innocent, why don't you deal with me alone, Mr Aldan. Deal with me alone and don't involve my family, this is not fucking fair." He screamed.

   "Not fucking fair, you say. But, you told me to put all the blame and punishment on you, so, I'm doing what you asked for. If they should die, everything will be on you, because you caused their death by taking a loan you were not going to be able to afford to pay back. Everything is your fault." 

   The man disagreed. "Everything that transpires is not my fault, I didn't ask this.' He shouted.

    "Or you sure did,' he smirked.

   "Man, he's got guts to even shout at you, oh my! The young man laughed.

  "He should continue, he's gonna pay for that, you can continue shouting, that tail between your legs will be the next thing in line." 

   Aldan stared at him with a dark expression, giving a motion to his bodyguards to go ahead and do what they were ordered to do and they agreed.

   Lilith was shaking with fear, her eyes were welling up, clenching her hands into a fist, and she boiled with anger. What was he doing to him, how could he be so heartless? What was this man doing? Why was he doing this because of a loan, how could he be such a fucking monster with no heart?

   All of a sudden, Lilith angrily shouted. "STOP?" 

   They all turned toward her with a confused look.
