Sold To The Wicked Him

A Group of men appeared, they all wore clothes that looks spiky and black.

“Aiden…”

Called Lea as she saw what those guys are up to. Closing his eyes for a second, Aiden can’t help but think of how annoying they can be.

Click,

Sound of something that Aiden just click on the buttons of the car.

“No worries, they can never break this car”

Said with his bored tone as if he was certain of that car’s capabilities. But his remarks is not something but a baseless claims. It was indeed just as what he said it to be.

No one can even dare break it. Not unless the person inside would let it be.

“Hey, let’s have a talk outside, shall we?”

With a big grin on his face, the man knocks on Aiden’s window. Trying to convince him to go down for them to have a ‘talk’ with each other. But Aiden knows too well what they are up to. He is no fool as what they think he is. He knows too well that they are up to no good.

“Don’t be upset if I force you to go out of there then”

Saying those word filled with nothing but arrogance, Aiden can’t help but be annoyed.

“Aiden!”

Lea shouted, the very image of that man can be seen clearly in her vision. Swinging his arm, he punches the window right beside Aiden with his fist wearing a sort of metal with spikes.

“It’s fine, we are safe in here, but them? I am not sure”

There was a small smirk in his face. As if he was just watching how ants would made their way to a sticky paste that is a sure death for them

“What?”

It is something that Lea can’t even understand but Aiden did not even explain it to her since he knew that she would find out about it in no time.

“AHHHHH!!!”

Shouting in pain, the man quickly pulled back his hands and immediately landed on his butt. Holding his right arm with his left hand, he again shouted.

“AHHRG!! I WILL FUCKING KILL YOU!!!”

As some of the group of men attended to their boss, the main brain on what they just did, it opens up a path for Lea and Aiden for the car to move.

“Hold on your seat”

He mumbled, quickly enough, Lea did just as he told. Holding tight, she knows too well. That they are going to escape.

Woosh

“G-GET THEM!!!”

Ordering his men, he winch in pain as he still feels the electric wave of the shock that hit him. He did not know that a car can have a feature like that. but that is something he did not even dare think about right now since what he was focused on is the fact that he is mad.

Mad about what happened to him. Mad in those people that was inside the car.

“Yes, boss!!”

And countless numbers of motorcycles can be heard chasing the car that had just left. Following the orders of their boss as if it is something that they are willing to fulfill.

‘Who the hell is that person?’

“Quin, are you all right?”

Asked by someone behind him

“Do I look like I am fucking all right? Get me up!”

Offering him a hand, the man that stay on Quin side just waited till the guy a bit taller than him finally stood up.

“I don’t think you can use your bike in your state like that, should I drive it instead?”

A calm voice and kind aura, just looking at him made Quin be annoyed.

‘I fuckin hate such face’

He mumbled as he can’t help but think that they are just a weakling. All person that possesses such kind face are nothing but weaklings that needs protection. And he hated those.

“Just this once, dare give it a scratch and I will kill you”

Yelling at him, the other guy did not even dare say a thing. But he did not bother about it at all.

“Yes”

They are close before, even when they are just a little, but somehow, Quin started to change.

“I didn’t know you can drive well, Carl”

He muttered.

“Thank you”

But his answer is not something that his boss was so glad to hear.

“That’s not a compliment, idiot”

…

“Wooah, I think I am a bit dizzy…”

Mumbling as she can’t help but feel so weird, she heard Aiden’s words warning her in her actions.

“Hey, I am warning you. Don’t you ever dare do that in here”

Holding her lips, Lea did her best to calm herself down as the car move faster and faster than she can ever imagined. As if she was inside the car who seems to be in a car race.

“Lea, you… I am warning you!”

Closing her eyes, she tried her very best.

“I… know…”

…

“Where are they?”

He shouted in annoyance.

As soon as Quin arrive in where the others are, there is no car in the area to be seen.

“Boss, we lost them…”

Hands clenching in anger, he shouted not even hiding the anger he had in his words.

“You loss them? You… useless!”

“Sorry boss, but we manage to get his plate number, here, we may find a clue of who that person was”

Giving him a piece of paper having the plate number of Aiden’s car, a small frown can be seen on Carl’s face.

“May I see?”

He mumbled as he get the paper from Quin.

“Carl, day by day you are turning bold in your action, I don’t like that”

Eyes glaring filled with his bitter resentment towards that person, he then received an apology from that very guy.

“Forgive me…”

His monotone voice replied which made Quin surprised. It was his very first time seeing Carl be like that to him. even when he made things enough to ruin Carl’s mood, he didn’t snap the way he is now.

‘Why? What is wrong with that plate number?’

“Do you know who that person is? Carl?”

Not answering for a second, the moment he again look back at Quin he had the kind smile on his lips painted again.

“Sorry, it is nothing. I just remembered something”

Looking at him with a questionable look, Quin did not pry any further. Something surely is not right with Carl. But digging deeper would make things worst. Because he know to well how terrifying Carl was when he is mad.

“If it isn’t something important, let’s go. We will hunt that bastard next time if we ever saw him. back to the quarters”

“Yes Boss!”

Carl is still looking at the very same place where the path leads to where that car may have gone through, wind started to gets bit colder. Even if the sky was set up high, the climate is not hot at all.

‘Is he alright?’

“Carl, we should go”

Nodding his head, he mumbled.

“Ah, yes”

…

“Sorry…”

Lea mumbled as she wipes her lips with the handkerchief that Aiden offered. They stopped in the corner as Lea can’t hold it back any longer. Aiden just remembering the exact same scene can’t help but be filled with horrid on his face.

He almost thought that Lea would puke inside the car.

Letting out a deep sigh he sat on the ground filled with grass.

“You alright now?”

Slightly nodding her head in reply, she mumbled.

“Yeah, but better…”

Putting his hand on his face, he tried to calm himself. That was the first time he ever experience something as that. it was the first time he ever felt that way. The horrid on his nerves still remain.

‘What is wrong with her?’

She surely is different from other ladies, but this was way too much for Aiden.

“Wait, I think I now remember this place…”

Lea mumbled which caught the attention of Aiden, he look at where Lea was going and there he was surprised when Lea go down the cliff.

“Hey! Watch out!”

Standing up, he was worried for nothing as he saw Lea safely standing in the flat edge of cliff with railings on it.

“I once went in here with my… father”

She mumbled but there is a bitterness on her tone. As if she remembered something painful. Realizing that, Aiden tried to change the subject and speaks.

“It is a great sight. The view in here is nice, isn’t it?”

But as Lea look at him, a small sad smile can be seen on her lips as she close her eyes.

“That is the same words he told me…”

‘It is a wonderful sight Lea, the view in here is nice, isn’t it?’

‘Yes father, it is so beautiful!’

Bending his knee to level Lea’s height, her father let out a smile.

‘But you know who was more beautiful?’

‘Who? father?’ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Pinching her cheeks, Lea let out a giggle.

‘Who else? Of course, you’

‘Father…’

The two of them share laughter. But Lea didn’t know that that would be the last moment she would share with her father. She did not even know that there won’t be a next time for her to have this much time with her dear father. She did not even know…

‘Granma? Where is father?’

‘Good morning Lea, come join us for dinner, the food is almost ready’

‘But granma, where is father? His bag isn’t there, even his shoes and clothes…’

Giving her a hug, that is when she learned,

‘Father… left me…’
